Learn more about this land: Lush high desert river oasis nestled in a fertile valley in the Carson National Forest right between the fiery expanse of Taos and the rolling colorful formations of Abiquiu. Peaceful and private 3 acres right by the river at the edge of a little quaint town called La Madera (145 people, no shops)- just 6 miles to the healing mineral Hot Springs of Ojo Caliente, a place of emergence or rebirth as known to the local Natives. Right by the river, held by a ridge (that makes for amazing sunset hikes), I have a 16ft Yurt Canvas set up with furnishings (desk, couch, wash stand) and a wooden Queen Bed with down bedding. This site can only be reached by foot across the river via stumps- a car can be parked near by.. approx. 50ft.  I also have a Vintage Camper that can be heated, has a kitchen, electricity and plenty of outdoor furniture with a fire pit and serene mountain views. As well as a monastic and very grounding Ensuite Bedroom, or a simple campsite if you want to bring your own camper or tent. All facilities have access to a guest bathroom inside the main house. I offer dog sitting while you soak at Ojo, healing modalities that you'll find in the Extras section, and my dear neighbor Jackie takes appointments for massages with homemade essential oils. +++ 6 miles to Ojo Caliente Hot Springs. There you will find the best restaurant in the area, with locally/organically farmed produce. Very yummy!  The land is naturally and beautifully wild- it is not a manicured campsite. The dirt rd down to the property is best suited for higher clearance vehicles, but is manageable for city cars.  Waterhole, Waterfall and climbing sites near by, as well as Plaza Blanca, Abiquiu, Ghost Ranch and the Taos Gorge are 30 mins drive away.  *No cell service in the greater area. WiFi reaches around the house/deck and allows for WiFi Calling: that’s a setting in your phone that enables phone calls & texts beside usual internet access.

River Oasis RV & Camp site
Beautiful area. The camper site had everything we needed for a night with 16" of snowfall. Looks like it would be a lot of fun to be on this land in the summer as well. Lots of space to roam around with a river running through it.

Wild River Oasis- Vintage Camper
Mystic Sanctuary Vibes
Sus has a beautiful home that holds divine energy. My brother and I felt so comfortable here. Chill yet very respectful atmosphere. Her backyard is lengthy and lovely. You can cross the river to a cute fire pit and climb a nearby hill. Lots of piñon on top of the hill. Smells amazing. Sus gave great advice on nearby adventures. Soaking in Ojo hot springs was magical, especially at night. This stay nourished our spirits and helped them grow. Sus may help align you on the path to reaching your highest self…..lowkey lol. Nourished my mind, body, and spirit Highly recommend!!

Wild River Oasis- Vintage Camper
My son & I had a fantastic time staying in the vintage camper on Sus's property. It was perfect for two people & the surrounding area is amazing. We will definitely be coming back!

Wild River Oasis- Vintage Camper
Perfect Getaway
The vintage camper was perfect for our anniversary getaway and so close to the hot springs. It was remote enough to tune out the outside world but it was also nice to have access to our phone/internet by the main house when needed. Our dog also love the land and was safely enclosed enough for her to walk around with little worry.
