El Morro is rich with history. Home to the ancient Pueblo Indians, what is now the monument was once their settlement and visited by Conquistador's and explorers during early explorations. It's famous Inscription Rock has over 2000 names carved in sandstone, including one from Coronado. Geronimo, and Billy the Kid are said to have frequented the area. But today, a rich group of homesteaders make up the community. Artisan's, actors, musician's, writers, spiritual healers, organic farmers, and free thinkers inhabit the Valley. The land here hosts retreats and workshops for those wishing to enrich their nighttime dream life. We provide a place for vision quest and have an emphasis on sound healing. Our SolTec Lounge is perfect for stress relief and can help induce lucid dream experiences. Sitting near the top of Oso Ridge at approximately 7700', we have one of the most inspiring views in the area. From our firecircle, El Morro Monument, Los Gigantes, and numerous mesas are in complete view. Learn more about this land: Fehu Retreat is a place for spiritual seekers to find vision and renewal through sound healing and retreat. We offer private retreat, sound healing chair sessions, and vision quests, but we are very excited about opening up the land to campers. It is a unique opportunity to experience normally private areas of this sacred land. Our remote and quiet 20 acres of heavily forested mountainside includes deep gorges and rocky terrain, while Ponderosa Pine canopies offer shade from the sometimes intense NM sun. Wildlife is plentiful, though sometimes elusive. Deer, Elk, Fox, Bobcat, Lynx, Wild Turkey, Roadrunners and Coyotes are all regularly seen on the land. Fehu Retreat is across El Morro Valley, near the top of Oso Ridge in the Zuni Mountains, and has a panoramic view of the surrounding mesas. You may want to get a closer view of Los Gigantes - amazing sand sculptures carved by the wind and sacred to ancient tribes. Two art galleries, a Feed Store, a Holistic Food Store, and a gift/coffee shop are right across the highway and next door to the Café in nearby El Morroville. Come visit our eclectic community! You may also want to visit the local Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary in Candy Kitchen. (Special pricing for longer stays)

Flying Horse Retreat is a place for spiritual seekers to find vision and renewal through sound healing and retreat. We offer private retreat, sound healing chair sessions, vision quests, and Summer Camp (coming soon), but we are very excited about opening up the land to campers. It is a unique opportunity to experience normally private areas of this sacred land. Our remote and quiet 20 acres of heavily forested mountainside includes deep gorges and rocky terrain, while Ponderosa Pine canopies offer shade from the sometimes intense NM sun. Wildlife is plentiful, though sometimes elusive. Deer, Elk, Fox, Bobcat, Lynx, Wild Turkey, Roadrunners and Coyotes are all regularly seen on the land. El Morro Monument, easily seen from our Firecircle on the opposite end of the Valley, is a world class travel destination. The water tank at the base of it's rock was a relied upon water source during early expeditions. Conquistador Coronado, Lt. Beale and other famed explorers stopped here before traveling further west. Flying Horse Retreat is across El Morro Valley, near the top of Oso Ridge in the Zuni Mountains, and has a panoramic view of the surrounding mesas. You may want to get a closer view of Los Gigantes - amazing sand sculptures carved by the wind and sacred to ancient tribes. We're just a few miles from the Continental Divide and Pie Town is a couple of hours further south. Though our location is pristine and remote, we do have a restaurant nearby. Ancient Way Cafe in El Morro Village is well known locally - and according to the National Geographic, one of the best restaurants in New Mexico. (Amazing pastries and desserts). They also have showers and cabins. Two art galleries, a Feed Store, a Holistic Food Store, and a gift/coffee shop are right across the highway and next door. Come visit our eclectic community of actors, healers, artisans, writers, organic farmers, and unique thinkers. (We are 50 miles from a town where supplies can be purchased, though the nearby Feed Store has a few camp related supplies and their holistic and organic food selections may surprise you.) You may also want to visit the local Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary in Candy Kitchen. At any one time they are host to 50+ Wolves and Hybrids. Be sure to watch their Reality TV Series on the Fido Channel! DVDs available on Amazon. Note: The Google Maps indicator is at the gate. There is an additional 3 mile drive up the mountain to my home. (Special pricing for longer stays. Campers can add $25 for a dream chair session, regularly $50. If interested in a session, please inquire before booking.) Our recently completed Bell Tent is available for bookings. Projects under way: Outdoor Solar Shower B&B Room

Site 2 - Forest Retreat
Camping at John's FEHU tent site was great. We had two nicely prepared pads that were level and free from rocks with alligator juniper, pinon, and ponderosa for a mix on open skies and shady spots. Around the site were a few small prickly pear cacti, but these were easily avoided even with most of us in sandals. Our curious bull mastiff-- not used to living around cactus-- managed to miss them too, so all-in-all, the few prickly pears just added to the Southwest ambiance of the place. The site was peaceful and quiet. It had a place to park a vehicle nearby so it was easy to stash food and access extra gear. At night, we heard the calls of elk and yips and howls of coyotes in the distance. It was a bit of a walk to the outhouse pit toilet, but that outhouse was well worth the walk! It was comfortable, well organized, and, amazingly, odor free. There were some power lines crossing the site nearer to the road, but they were hardly noticeable and afforded us with nice views of valley, mesas, and mountains to the west. John's instructions on reaching his place were excellent. We will definitely be back to visit the area around Ramah and the El Morro Valley. When we do, we'll happily stay at one of John's camping sites again. Hopefully next time, we'll be able to take advantage of some of his add-ons. Thanks, John, for preparing a great camping experience!

What a gorgeous place. So peaceful. If you want some time away from the circus, the noise, and the business of doing, and just want to be for a moment in a timeless setting, filling your cup to the rim, this is the place to be, and on top of that, John is a great host, a man with depth, and a great field to bathe yourself in. I will definitely be back.

My second visit was just as special as the first one. Summer rains have greened up the valley and flowers are everywhere. John's place is a great place to relax into the quiet or explore the area's natural beauty.

John's place is really special- the camp site feels really private and has been filled with sifted sand which makes a lovely bed for tent campers. The fire pit is situated near the house and away from the site but it's worth the very short walk. Benches and chairs are placed throughout the property where you can read, meditate, or watch the wildlife. John was really gracious and kind and even helped us position our teardrop camper.

This was one of our all-time favorite sites! It is so peaceful. John has a such a unique set up and the views are stellar. My husband and I took a long walk around the property to see the sun set. It was cloudy, but the mountains in the distance were still beautiful. The stars came out later that night, so we ended up not lighting a fire and just spend the evening relaxing and gazing. Spectacular!

I arrived in the middle of a summer monsoon downpour but the 2.9 miles of dirt road to John's place was still navigable. When the rain let up, John joined me in inspecting the tent sites, which were pretty muddy. At that point, I opted to upgrade to his "glamping" tent, where I spent the next three nights. It was super clean and comfortable. The outhouse was not too far away and was almost brand new and also super clean. I also enjoyed John's firepit (although my fire was a bit smokey due to wet wood!) and I think I eventually sat in every chair and bench he has arranged around the property. If you go, be sure to walk up to the view point, from where you can see El Morro and more.

John was very helpful and there is a beautiful view of the valley. It is close to El Morro National Monument.
