New to Hipcamp, but want to share my beautiful property with others. Located on the bank of the Rio Grande River with access to the river at all times. Property is rustic now, but improvements will continue to be made as time goes on. Come help me develop this beautiful location into the best Hipcamp in New Mexico.
Just 14 miles of the Chile Capital of the World, Hatch, NM, come during chile harvest to take home fresh green chile right out of the field.
21 miles from Las Cruces, where you will find plenty of events and entertainment, should you so desire. Spaceport, America, T or C, White Sands are all within a day's drive, and Fort Selden is just a few miles down the road, as is Blue Moon Bar and Grill.
My dad first came to this property as a farm hand for the elderly couple who owned it. This was in the 1930's. He met my mother, who lived 6 miles down the road, in 1939. She was just 14. Every Sunday he would ride those 6 miles to have supper with her and her family and in 1940, 2 weeks after her 16th birthday, they married. They traveled around before coming back here, buying a small portion of this farm from the elderly owners and farming the rest for them, but in 1953, the man died (his name was Ernest Ward) in the small concrete house I now use for storage, that my dad had built for he and his wife when he first came to work for them. My parents built a home for his widow in Hatch (14 miles) and bought the farm from her. My family has owned it since. I was gone for 31 years, but returned to the land and place I love and plan to stay here till I die!

Ditch the phone, bring the family and experience life again !
Easy access to the property with bladed dirt roads and bring your fishing poles as Trees Lake is 18 miles NW of Deming. Off grid experience so pack accordingly. Additional supplies if needed are about 20 miles away in Deming.
The properties are being used in 1 acre parcels, for privacy ! Experience Blazing Saddles Style fun and wave to any neighbors there friendly. Sunsets are incredible.
If your flying and renting an RV -El Paso Int Airport 90 Miles SE, from the Land of Enchantment.
Experience life from the 1800s, enchanting sunsets, peaceful with nature as New Mexico is a free range state, so you may see life stock of other animals from time to time.
There's forever views of the Florida Mountain, Good Sight and Organ Mountains. This is the old wild west open plains setting giving you the ultimate feeling going back in time.
Rock hound State Park and Trees Lake Sit on the other side of the Florida Mountains About 20 Minutes Away! more things to do!
Cooks Canyon, There are so many things to explore here, old abandon mines, and the famous Fort Cummings used in the 1800s to protect from Indian raids. And water falls etc.
Bill Evans Lake Sits about 80 Miles NW of Deming it is home of the biggest bass ever caught at 15 ls 13 oz and 26.5 inches long.
The property and surrounding views, Mito Road, Caminto Road, Solindo Road and El Ensueno Road are all decent bladed Roads. They sit just south of El Bordo Road, the main drag off Franklyn Road and there is a cable box along El Bordo.
Take NM 549 to Franklyn Road. Head south 2.5 miles to El Bordo Rd then head East 1.5 miles to Mito Road. USE THE GPS.
The property located in Luna County about 45 minutes from West of Las Cruces NM, it's a rural countryside setting off Franklyn Rd about 20 minutes SE of Deming.
I suggest you bring a dedicated GPS like a Garman and more reliable then your phone. Be smart print out map, bring a shovel, water, food blankets, mace, a dog and anything else you might need if you get stuck for a day or two.
Be safe and have fun. She’s a beautiful earth. We only get one shot out here and see all she has to offer. Robert the explorer.

Lawrence & Dina’s Campsite was great. Open space and the amenities were just what we expected. We got there late and left really early but it was wonderful experience. I and my sons watched the stars and I saw two shooting stars. Would definitely recommend camping there. Bathroom was clean and readily accessible from all site. Thanks again Lawrence & Dina.

Lawrence & Dina couldn't be better hosts and have a perfect place to stay. Our site had a picnic table under a tree which was perfect for our morning coffee. We got in too late to see the sunset but loved the sunrise. Beware of choosing the "open directions in app" option. Twice it took us the wrong way. Third time was a charm (and verified using the address). If we're in the area again, we'll definitely stay there again.
Also, if you are heading east in the morning and you like old school yet quirky diners, you have to try The Pit on 292 Cafe just outside Los Cruces for breakfast. Great food and character. A fun way to start your journey.

Hacienda RV Resort is not something I would expect to find on Hipcamp. Its a full-fledged RV Resort with all the bells and whistles. The only downside is there's no privacy. So, if you like camping for solitude, this isn't the place, otherwise, its awesome!

My second time in as many weeks staying here. Can't put my finger on it, I'll just go with the New Mexico slogan "Land of Enchantment". It's so easy in and out. Lawrence and Dina are great hosts!
Still loved the sunset, myriad stars at night and awesome north to south first light and daybreak.
As I said in my last stay, if I was just in the vicinity, I would go out of my way to stay here.

Carolyn went above and beyond for us. We booked a last minute spot due to some really bad weather. The land is so beautiful and her vision for what’s to come is exciting. The space was level which I’m so thankful for after a bad night elsewhere. Unfortunately the river was low but that is out of her control as the damn has to be opened. If we ever pass through this part of the country again we will for sure be back for longer than a night.

Lawrence and Dina met us at the entrance to their property and were very welcoming. We stayed one night. There are 2 spots with electric and water hookup. It was quiet with limited road noise. It is a dirt lot so when the wind kicks up the dirt goes everywhere, something to keep in mind. We would stay again.
