Fabulous. Super cozy, has everything you need. Neighbors totally get the chill vibe — no noise, no drama. Really private, clean, well-equipped, and just 20 minutes out on a smooth road to the nearest town. Views are insane. 10/10 would stay again.

Chef Üdø was an incredibly thoughtful and gracious host. He made sure we had everything we needed to be safe and comfortable. He had endless recommendations for the area and plenty of character. And his food was some of the best I’ve ever had

We had a lovely stay on the property! The owners were amazing and waited up for us. We did get lost. GPS took us on a different route so whatever you do… follow the directions the host sends you and type the address directly into the gps. And we are pretty experienced off roaders and adventurers so we thought eeeeeeeh we will be fine after dark. We got there but if you can get there before dark I highly recommend it! We can’t wait to go back and spend more time on the property! Thank you!!!

Chef Üdø’s site was a perfect spot for us as we stopped near White Sands NP during a longer camping roadtrip throughout the Southwest! The bell tent was super clean and fresh on a raised platform to keep away the mud and bugs. We enjoyed beautiful views of the Sandia Mountains / Dog Canyon while we ate a most scrumptious meal and woke up to a vibrant sunrise. I highly recommend Chef Udo’s food!! We had the world famous brined chicken, which came with a sweet potato mash and roasted asparagus - expertly seasoned and truly delicious. Udo was super communicative and helpful, reaching out well in advance to coordinate and he provided really useful tips about the area. Don’t skip the cookies! 🍪😋

This place exceeded my expectations! It was such a neat place to stay, very cut, clean, and had all the amenities we needed. What I loved the most is that the whole building and every room felt like a piece of art. From the wall trims and grout choice to the pieces hanging on the wall. Every single detail seemed carefully curated so that it felt as if I was staying in a work of art. 10/10

Crows nest tree house was so much fun. You can tell they thought out its design & ammenities well. We really enjoyed the view, cooking out on the grill & enjoying the beautiful weather. The ranch is also full of walking trails & they provide you carts with wheels at the parking area, which was very helpful.

Came here after visiting White Sands National Park. Incredible doesn’t describe it enough. 100/10 hands down coolest place we’ve ever stayed. We came with our two kids and pup and stayed in the Crow’s Nest. We played rock checkers, the coolest small playground, the slide off our top deck to the private hang out spot under our treehouse. The sunrise breakfast over the mountains, all amenities needed, so comfortable. The vhs tv was a hit with out kids (we got to show them how rewinding used to be done). I literally cannot say enough great things. So clean so cozy, just perfect!
