On the north, vast dramatic views of the Plaza Blanca, stretch out toward the towering Sierra Negra peak. A few acres of short juniper forest top the mesa, leaving the sky wide open for stargazing.

Mesatop Bohemian Yurt

Amazing views, breathtaking sunsets and stargazing. Chilly outside, but the yurt was fairly well-insulated and there was a wood stove inside (complete with all fire-starting equipment), a large propane heater and plenty of high-quality blankets; you will not be cold, despite it’s spaciousness! There was a kitchen area, handwashing station and small backpacking stove for cooking. We also enjoyed her thoughtful selection of books. The outdoor shower area was unavailable for use at that time, but we didn’t miss it. The composting toilet was completely enclosed for privacy. Every area of this glamping experience has been pragmatically considered, not only for utility but also aesthetic design. We felt very safe there. You can tell how much reverence Kate has for her land and we are thankful for the beautiful experience.

Yurt was lovely, private and quiet! Kate is very attentive, easy to reach, and helpful! A great place to get away and find some peace.

Perfect place to disconnect!

Mesatop Bohemian Yurt

What a special place! From Kate’s warm greeting and yurt orientation, to the beautiful views, to the amazing decor in the yurt, this trip was exactly what i needed for a weekend of solitude. It was cold (in the 20s at night) and the stove and amazing blankets kept me cozy. I can’t wait to come back - and even booked my next trip here already! Thank you to Kate for opening up your place to visitors!

I loved this place so much! My girlfriend and I made a pit stop here on a cross country road trip to stargaze and it was AMAZING! so beautiful and Kate was very helpful with all of our needs! It’s so quiet and peaceful at night. You can see the Milky Way Galaxy and many different constellations.

Views and cozy yurt

Mesatop Bohemian Yurt

I was in awe of the views from Kate's place. The yurt is super cozy and private, hidden in the junipers. All the details were as listed and Kate was really helpful pointing out sites to see on our hikes. This is a great home base when exploring Abiquiu.
