Piñon Pine & Prickly Pear 🌲 Secluded Hilltop Retreat Just Minutes from Santa Fe Escape into nature without giving up convenience at Piñon Pine & Prickly Pear, a hidden gem just off Hwy 599 and only 7–10 minutes from Santa Fe’s historic Plaza. Tucked among piñon, juniper, and pinon pine trees, this private, lightly rustic site offers sweeping views and peaceful surroundings. What to Expect • Type of site: Mulched hillside for RVs, vans, or tents • Sleeps: Up to 5 guests • Vehicle size: Best suited for rigs under 24 ft (backup parking may allow slightly larger) • Terrain / access: More rustic than typical campgrounds — 4×4 isn’t required but is recommended • Amenities:   • Potable water available via hydrant (~100 ft from site)   • No hookups (electricity, on-site water, or sewer)   • No toilets or fire pits currently   • You must be self-contained with your own supplies Vibe: Extremely private and tree-surrounded — host’s home is just up the hill and barely visible depending on orientation Ideal For • Adventurers who prefer quieter, off-grid stays • Campervans, trucks & campers with mild ground clearance • Tent camping under the canopy of piñon and juniper • Travelers wanting a base close to Santa Fe but still in a more natural, secluded setting Highlights • Proximity to Santa Fe: Walk into the city life after a short drive • Nature & privacy: Surrounded by native trees, enjoying the feeling of your own little hideaway • Authentic experience: Minimal amenities, maximum immersionVery secluded spot that is a bit more challenging than a typical site to access. 4x4 not required but recommend. Our home is just up the hill from the site and our roof is just barely visible depending on where you're standing. The site is fully surrounded by trees (pinon and juniper) and has fairly wonderful views. 7-10min to the Plaza. It's a great spot for a tent, truck camper, or campervan with a bit of clearance. Possibly a smaller trailer if backed all the way in and again has pretty good clearance. Something around 24ft will fit in comfortably. Depending on how you park you can get something a bit bigger in as well. No amenities at this time, but water is available at a hydrant about 100ft away. You'll need to be self contained.

Ben's camp location was perfect. Access was great, yet secluded, quiet and private. He had a campfire kit set up and ready, which was great and an added bonus.

Nice little mulched pad with fire ring. Level spot for a tent or camper. Feels secluded with big view, but in town. Host was very helpful and accommodating with quick responses to questions.
