This charming land has been in the family since my husband was a young boy. The Indian ruins and artifacts fascinated him then and he is still happy to share this history with whoever shows an interest. With all the improvements made by his father and family through the years, you will also learn to have a love for the history and beauty here on this unique 30-acre treasure.
You can explore Native American ruins that were inhabited by some 2,000 people between 700-1100 AD. The grounds are wonderful to walk with a little lake which draws elk, deer, hawks, blue herons, etc.
Easy to access just 3 minutes off I-25. We are 5 minutes away from the Pecos Natl Monument and 15 minutes away from the Pecos River with plenty of great fishing spots ;Visit Santa Fe (20-minute drive) or Las Vegas (30-minute drive) with dozens of restaurants, museums, art galleries, etc.

If you want to have easy access to the city, but still enjoy nature, this is the perfect spot for you. We find the campers who enjoy this site the most are just stopping by for a safe and quiet place to sleep while passing through or they love exploring throughout the day and come back to the site to relax and rest up before their next adventure.
So come sleep under the stars, relax in the shade of the pinon trees, play in the grassy, wildflower fields, or cozy up to one of the fire pits on the property.
Camp sites have access to water and the covered RV space has electricity and water hookups. Love riding as much as we do? Clean off that New Mexico clay at our bike washing station! We are dog friendly and already love your furry companions, but please keep them leashed. We can provide long cables so your pup can still play outside with you!
The two acre property also includes our home, covered RV site, pear tree (help yourself to fresh fruit!), many shady areas to relax, large field to play, fire pits, and access to trails within walking distance!
After a few years of living on the road, we know how hard it can be to find a clean, safe place to stay and how magical it feels when you find just the right spot. Now that we are stationary, we want to share our home with you and give others a chance to enjoy nature and all of the beautiful adventures surrounding us!
We live full-time in the house and do have neighbors on our street (dirt road), please let us know if we can do anything to make your stay more comfortable!

Welcomed near the Ranch gate by host, Victoria, who was very friendly, helpful and informative.
The site was level, spacious with great hookups. The ranch is beautiful, very clean and organized. My nature companion dog, Benito had 2 nights of good sleep and much needed respite from long travel.
I highly recommend this wonderful site that is far enough off the freeway (but not too far) with awesome views of the surrounding landscape!

The site was lovely. It was quiet and beautiful. We enjoyed the resident dogs who barked a bit at our dogs but caused us no trouble whatsoever. The bathhouse was clean and nice.

We only stayed one night but this would be a great place for multiple nights as well. We were close enough that we were able to head out for some morning fishing before check out.

The family and I had a great camping experience here. Temperature dropped compared to the previous day, so it was quite cold at night. But the campsite was nestled in the trees and was perfect. Not super far from home, so we will definitely be back in the future.
