Experience Sangre de Cristo Mountains zip-lining and skiing from a Red River cabin rental.
Follow New Mexico’s Enchanted Circle Scenic Byway to furnished and rustic Red River cabin rentals. Red River is an ideal base for intrepid forays into Sangre de Cristo Mountains and Carson National Forest—then spend the night at one of the forest’s on-site group cabins. The Columbine-Hondo Wilderness and Cruces Basin Wilderness are other top spots for exploration, prime for summer cabin campers looking to go hiking, horseback riding, zip-lining, and fly fishing for salmon and rainbow trout in Red River, Cimarron River, and Eagle Nest Lake. In winter, Red River transforms into a New Mexico skiing destination, making cabins and vacation rentals popular throughout the year. Look for ski chalets near the mountains with queen-sized beds, futons, and river views. More cabin rentals and A-frames with wifi and waterfront views are available near Red River’s best-loved attractions like Red River Trail, Wheeler Peak, and Middlefork Lake.
