New Earth Homestead

This land is just off the "Old Taos Highway" which used to be a travel route for the Conquistadors who mined gold out of the nearby Sangre de Cristo Mountains. They would sometimes bury their gold along the way as to avoid being robbed. Located in the shadow of Taos Mountain, this place is mystical. After leaving my corporate job, I've set up a homestead here, all built by my mom and I. The campsite is adjacent to our homestead, and it embodies all of the beauty and excitement that the West Mesa offers.

Hot air balloons often land here in the summer

Lawrence lived and wrote in this cabins, and later Elizabeth Kubler Ross and Ram Dass stayed here.

Camping site #2. Once in bloom, you will be sleeping under a handful of apple trees!

Campsite #1. Big enough to have multiple tents!

Ulhr Ranch

For many years after a long winter of making snow and grooming, I always enjoyed returning to this piece of heaven outside of Taos. Through the years, friends and co-workers came to visit and enjoy the land and named it Ulhr (god of snow) Ranch. The house is being built with 1880s reclaimed lumber from the Gold Pan Dance Hall in Eagle Nest NM. We aim to be kind to the land and try to reuse any time we can.Learn more about this land:Come stay awhile at the Ulhr Ranch. High Desert Vistas gives your ears a rest from the noise of the city. Just a few hundred feet from BLM and Carson national forest and a beautiful hike up to Three Peaks.  Only three miles away from the Rio Grande Del Norte National Monument and the Rio Grande river with gold medal fishing, rafting and swimming. Three ski resorts just a short drive from the ranch. No matter the season, there is something to do at the ranch.

The awning was nice to have in this sun and heat 

Plenty of room on campsite for multiple vehicles 

The fence with a ton of tires means you are close to the turn off for the property 

The general mountain view  surrounds the land 

Another building in progress on the property for identifying 

You will pass this on the first main road as you head in it is on the right 

You should be able to see this red roof from the dirt roads to help you find the campsite location 

La Luz Vintage Campers

Three years ago, two lonely campers sat abandoned in the sagebrush of Northern New Mexico. While they enjoyed spectacular mountain and mesa views, they longed to be inhabited by travelers once again. Thankfully for these vintage beauties - and for me - I stumbled upon them during my own summer wanderings, and the rest is history. Now my full time residence, La Luz has blossomed into a home base for travelers who want to take in the area's outdoor and cultural offerings while enjoying a taste of vintage comfort with modern perks.Learn more about this land:A space perfect for the solo traveler or a really cozy couple. Set just 10 minutes from town, this amazingly well-designed 1964 Barth travel trailer features the comforts and amenities of home in a small, stylish package. The many windows offer views of mountains and big sky, and the large fenced yard, comfy outdoor chairs, and vintage outdoor fireplace offers even more living space! 

Taos night skies make campers (of the human and trailer variety) feel like a very small piece of a very big place.

The deck of my trailer shares a large fenced yard with the camper and another pristine vintage rental.

The camper has a dinette table and kitchenette for the hungry camper!

The fenced yard creates more living space for guests to feel at home.

The camper shares a yard with two other vintage travel trailers - I live full time in my Spartan trailer on the property and the other trailer is also a guest rental. 

View of the comfy twin bed and fully functioning bathroom.

This little camp toilet was recently replaced with a real RV toilet that is hooked up to septic - ahhhh, the comforts of home!

During times when it is safe and legal, feel free to enjoy a cozy fire in the midcentury fireplace. Firewood available on site!
