Weekend Trip to Natures Classroom

The location was convenient. It was quiet and felt safe. The yard was not visually appealing, but there was a nice view of the mountains. I could hear a rooster, but it was far enough away as to not be bothersome.

We had a wonderful time in TorC and loved our stay in the Winnebago. It was so cute and well decorated and had everything we needed and the host was wonderful, met us at the gate when we arrived, showed us around, and gave us some good recommendations for the area. This was our favorite accommodations on our cross country road trip. Thanks so much!!

Lawrence & Dina couldn't be better hosts and have a perfect place to stay. Our site had a picnic table under a tree which was perfect for our morning coffee. We got in too late to see the sunset but loved the sunrise. Beware of choosing the "open directions in app" option. Twice it took us the wrong way. Third time was a charm (and verified using the address). If we're in the area again, we'll definitely stay there again. Also, if you are heading east in the morning and you like old school yet quirky diners, you have to try The Pit on 292 Cafe just outside Los Cruces for breakfast. Great food and character. A fun way to start your journey.

My second time in as many weeks staying here. Can't put my finger on it, I'll just go with the New Mexico slogan "Land of Enchantment". It's so easy in and out. Lawrence and Dina are great hosts! Still loved the sunset, myriad stars at night and awesome north to south first light and daybreak. As I said in my last stay, if I was just in the vicinity, I would go out of my way to stay here.

Lawrence and Dina met us at the entrance to their property and were very welcoming. We stayed one night. There are 2 spots with electric and water hookup. It was quiet with limited road noise. It is a dirt lot so when the wind kicks up the dirt goes everywhere, something to keep in mind. We would stay again.
