You can go on a panoramic ridge hike right off the property, or just relax by the flowing creek, or listen to the bird symphonies. Some campsites have access to a guest bathroom inside the main house, others have private outhouses. 🌿🌿🌿 We offer DOG SITTING so you can relax at the Springs, or PRIVATE MASSAGE here on the land with the senior therapist from Ojo Hot Springs for less $$$ - check out the Extras. 🌿🌿🌿 The land is beautifully wild with lots of animal life. The dirt rd down to the property is best suited for higher clearance vehicles, but is manageable for city cars. If you're pulling your trailer/camper you'll need 4W. With land by the river comes the mosquitos- June to August. They are predominantly active during sunrise and sunset; long loose fitting clothes and/or a repellent work great.

Tres Piedras This private camping spot is located in the beautiful mountains of Tres Piedras, New Mexico, offering a rustic escape near the Carson National Forest. Surrounded by dirt roads and easements, the area provides plenty of space for walking and exploring the high-elevation landscape.

The property is also within reach of several regional attractions, situated about 15 miles from the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge and close to the Earthships museum. Please note that this is a primitive camping experience; there is no running water or toilet on-site, and no RV hookups are available (though RVs are welcome to book as tent sites). Campfires are permitted in the designated fire place. Pets are welcome but should remain leashed to ensure their safety in the wild terrain. Whether you are looking for a basecamp for hiking and rock climbing or simply a peaceful place to reset, this spot offers a genuine connection to the New Mexico wilderness.
