Camping at this site offers a serene escape, with guests frequently praising the comfortable tipis and the opportunity to disconnect under the starry skies. Many reviews speak to the kindness and hospitality of the hosts, Deb and Gil, who ensure visitors have everything they need for a cozy stay. The property itself is noted for its beauty, with a clear creek, plenty of wildlife, and the chance for some light fishing. While most visitors had a positive experience, some noted the unpredictable weather, but the hosts' preparedness with heaters and blankets ensured a warm and pleasant stay.
Summary AI-generated from real reviews
The owner's, Debbie and Gil, are incredible and I'm happy to call them friends after staying here multiple times. They offer a gorgeous, peaceful, scenic slice of heaven in the Carson National Forest. Their property contains a clear creek running down the middle surrounded by colorful trees (in Oct). The tipi, with it's set up and amenities, offers a one of a kind glamping experience perfect for campers wanting to treat themselves from the tent for a change. Try their restaurant, the Chili Lime Depot, and be sure to give the pup, Sally, some love!

We absolutely loved our stay! Debbie and Gill were the BEST hosts! They were super friendly and accommodating! My family and I went to disconnect from the world and reconnect with each other and this place made it so easy! We had everything we needed and the view was spectacular! We will definitely be back!

My husband and I were celebrating our 5 year anniversary being married. We met Debbie and her husband, they gave a run down of the area and anything we needed. Debbie was an excellent host, super kind and thoughtful.
This experience is more than we could ask for. Being able to fully disconnect, soak into the surroundings and be present with each other was much needed. The surroundings and sky were soo beautiful (we took some great pictures!!). Especially at night, we were at awe with how much stars and sky we could see. We even saw some shooting stars!
There is wifi but very spotty at the elk tipi, but that allowed us to really really disconnect. The firewood was a godsend, it was sooo cold at night - if you're coming from a warm state make sure you pack enough warm clothing when the weather is around 40F at night! The bed was so comfy and had enough layers to keep you warm. Inside the tipi had a heater inside but if more blanket was needed, there was an extra in the tipi.
We also love the fact that our pets were allowed to be off leash. Our husky had a blast as well!
Thank you for the experience and stay. It was absolutely wonderful!

Great place to stay. I got unlucky with weather, which is a bummer, but the host was nice and had a heater going for me already when I got there. Super cozy and well equipped

"Elk" 4-person Glamping Tipi
The Tipis were the perfect camping spot for my family and me! The Tipis had everything that we needed: comfy beds, cozy linens, and cooking supplies. The property was absolutely beautiful! My 3 year old twins loved running around on the grass and fishing at the pond. Deb and Gil were fantastic hosts!

"Kokopelli" 2-Person Glamping Tipi
We absolutely loved this area. It’s the perfect place for a peaceful getaway especially if you have multiple dogs. We took all 4 of our dogs and Deborah was so encouraging of them to enjoy their freedom. Our tipi was cozy and it was so nice that just about any supplies you need or might have forgotten to pack is available. We couldn’t be more grateful for this experience.

Beautiful valley, lovely brook and many stars. We especially loved the surprise visit from their horses. They came right up to our tipi looking for treats! (I don't think this happens on a regular basis but we found it adventurous and delightful). The hosts were fun to talk to.

Deb and family were such warm hosts. Sara the pup brought smiles to our faces daily.
This was our first Yurt experience. We will be back!
The pleasant stream close by provides such soothing music to relaxation. Those fire pits are the BEST I’ve ever used! The lowest smoke cologne I’ve ever had. ;). (Deb even had snore kits for us as we had forgotten marshmellows!). The Milky Way was amazing! We haven’t seen so many stars in years. So pleasant and calm!
We had forgotten a couple items and Deg figured it out without us even asking. She took suck wonderful care of us!

"Zia" 4-Person Glamping Tipi
My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The teepee was very spacious and accommodated 5 adults and 6 kids without any issue. The property was beautiful and the view of the stars at night was incredible. Deborah and Gill were great hosts and very friendly. Sally the dog will greet you and your guests when you arrive, which the kids LOVED. I would definitely recommend staying here and enjoying nature/exploring the property.

This was our second time visiting Deb and Gil at the tipis. It’s impressive how much they have improved the site in just one year! We loved the new campfire rings and the beautiful hanging chairs and hammocks. The hosts were quickly responsive to our needs and we had everything we wanted for a fantastic stay. The sky was clear on the first night with no moon, so we got to see more stars than I’ve probably ever seen before! It’s a beautiful camp and we will have to bring more family next time to let them share in on the fun!

Luxury Yurt next to trout stream.
Just the most gorgeous spot and the most thoughtful hosts! I don’t want to say too much because this place is such a hidden gem! I hope to come back again and again. They’ve thought of everything you need and really bring a beautiful, authentic experience to their visitors.

Deb and Gil are amazing hosts! They are so sweet and thoughtful. The Teepee was cozy and clean, the bed was comfortable and the communal bathroom was clean. Fishing at the pond was exceptional. This place is magical and we'll definitely make this place an annual trip!

The host with the most! This is a must stay and a do not miss. Comfortable beds, beautiful outdoor space, and Deborah is an incredible host who takes the times to make sure all guests are comfortable and well fed! A treasure for glamping in Northern New Mexico. Great home base for heading out to the Cumbres and Toltec, fishing, or just relaxing in the shade on a hammock.
We will be back!

What can I say!!?? This was our first glamping experience and it did not disappoint. We are already planning our next visit! Our hosts were so welcoming and friendly. We spent two nights in one of the teepees under the stars. One of the most romantic and relaxing getaways we’ve ever had. All we needed to pack was our clothes and food. Everything else was provided. I’m hesitant to leave a review because I don’t want to share our new secret spot nestled in Tres Piedras. The views! The babbling stream! The fishing! The beautiful horses! We felt like we were special guests invited by Deborah and Gil. It was right out of a movie. I will be talking about this for a long time… I have never seen stars so beautiful in my life. 🤠🏕️🎣🛻🐴🐄🛣️✨✨✨✨✨

Loved this place so much. Great location for adventuring - paddling, hiking, biking, hot springs. The tipi was comfortable and had everything I needed. The property is so beautiful and having a fire every night was magical.

Deborah’s property is beautiful. The tipis are well equipped with all the tools and utensils one may need. She owns the Chile line depot which is super historic - I highly recommend eating from there so you’ll get to have a very memorable experience.

I had a wonderful time. The hosts are very kind and welcoming. The ranch is beautiful and the accommodations are great. It was a slice of heaven to lay in hammock by the gurgling creek.

A truly magical place. We loved it all - the views, the skies, the sound of the stream, the cosy beds, the fire pit, the animals passing through, the hammocks - we wished we could have stayed longer. Thank you for sharing your idyllic farm.

We loved Deb’s camping site! So cute and they had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and warm. My kids loved fishing in the stocked pond and watching a tiny beaver in the stream. We will definitely go back!

"Kokopelli" 2-Person Glamping Tipi
Beautiful and well maintained. The teepees were fun. My pup was off-leash the whole time and loved to explore. Kids wanted to stay another day but we couldn’t because our travel schedule.
Will definitely be staying here instead of Albuquerque or Santa Fe when visiting the area.
Our hosts were amazing and super nice! Be sure to stop by Deborah’s restaurant Chili Line Depot for some great food on your way in or out.

We loved camping in the teepee. The kids had a great time playing in the stream and enjoying s’mores by the fire. The hosts were great. Can’t recommend enough.

Host Debbie was in touch the day of our arrival and treated us to an upgrade to the Luxury Tipi as inclement weather had arrived and she felt we would be more comfortable in the larger Tipi with a pellet stove. When we arrived her son and husband greeted us and showed us around the Tipi and amenities. The Tipi was clean and well set up with lots of blankets and the stove was already running and Tipi was toasty.
We brought our Golden Retriever and Mini Aussie and boy did they have a blast! There is a beautiful creek that runs along the side of the Tipi's. To say our Golden was in heaven was an understatement!
This is a working ranch so there are horses, cows, dogs, cats and all kinds of natural wildlife. You can fish for trout in the pond and river! It did rain most of our stay but we made the best of it and grilled some delicious steak, played cards, listened to music and got cozy!
We drove to Taos to do some shopping on our second day, it's about 40min from the Tipi, on our way back we stopped in at Debbie & Gil's restaurant the Chili Line Depot and had some fantastic lunch (Elk stew, salad, and fresh strawberry rhubarb pie baked by Debbie!)
We will definitely be back for a re-do with better weather, we are looking forward to exploring the property more!

Deborah and Gil were awesome hosts and made us feel right at home. It was a beautiful setting and the kids loved exploring the land. The weather was cold as we were there so early in the season but the teepee was nice and cozy with the pellet stove. We will definitely be back in the summer to enjoy all the amenities and more of the beautiful and peaceful scenery.
