Looking for the perfect way to end your Hipcamp vacation? How about some true high desert GLAMPING!!!!
Come enjoy a serene and restful vacation at a truly unique space. A straw bale hogan surrounded by a beautiful terraced garden with seating areas, water feature, and 360 degree views of desert and mountain ranges from its roof.
The land in this part of New Mexico was part of the Madrid (family) Spanish Land Grant. It is the location of the oldest turquoise mines in North and South America. Plus one of the oldest gold mines in North America. The neighboring towns are quite famous and filled with things to do. History abounds here and I am happy to tell the tales!
There are several restaurants to find a great meal and musical entertainment. Believe it or not, there is a lot of talent in them thar hills! Hiking, biking and horseback riding are available in the Cerrillos Hills Park just 2 miles away. There's even a nice arroyo trail to take you to the Galisteo River riparian area just feet from the hogan door.
We even have a horse barn, round pen and a couple acres of fenced desert. We just said farewell to our last horse who was 30 years old, so we also offer room for your horses if you are traveling with them. A $25 per horse fee will be charged per day. Bring your own feed, please.
The property includes a round 350 square foot straw bale structure with a queen size bed, reading nook (which can also suffice for a second (twin sized) bed for a 3rd person). There is A/C and an electric 'wood stove' for heat. The kitchen includes instant hot water and everything to prepare a meal (you bring the food). Amazing 360 degree views from the rooftop include the Sangre de Cristo, Sandia and Jemez Mountain ranges. The outhouse is fully equipped (even heated in the winter months) and super clean and just 25 feet from the door. We allow dogs (please let me know how many when making a reservation) and have room for tents and motorhomes.
Soon to come next Spring is a Boho chic horse trailer!Enjoy the quiet seclusion of this quaint and eclectic 350 square foot strawbale hogan surrounded by a desert zen garden with views of the Sangre de Cristos and Jemez Mountain ranges. WiFi, TV, AC, kitchen, antique clawfoot tub for outdoor bathing, the nicest outhouse you've ever been in, a rooftop yoga studio for night time stargazing and daytime views. Accomodations include a super comfy queen size bed and a small single size bed for that 'third person'. There's no fenced yard, but lots of room for long doggy walks. There are restaurants, horseback riding stables, hiking trails, shopping and music venues in the two nearby towns. Cerrillos has a ghost town vibe and Madrid a hippie vibe. What a combo, right? Definitely worth a visit.
