This slice of heaven has been our family's dream for years. We bought this little piece of desert wilderness with panoramic mountain views and have slowly turned it into an off-grid homestead. Our property runs off of solar and wind power only. We haul our own water and use composting toilets. In addition to campsites, we also have chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, goats, honey bees and gardens.

Awesome spot to spend the night, just a short drive from town. The hosts were super friendly and the outdoor shower was great!

Owners were super nice and helpful. The setting is very quiet. The camping area is quirky and fun (decor and appointments). Great sunset and overview of Albequerque at night.

Heidi and her husband were such great hosts- they made sure we had everything we needed and camping there was perfect for us. The quiet and the views were a plus, too.

Glamping at Our Desert Homestead
Beautiful land, lovely hosts!
I can’t recommend this place enough! We thoroughly enjoyed the view, the sweet touches (like the beautiful solar lights), the commitment to sustainability, and the graciousness of the hosts. And our time with the animals was beyond fun! If we’re ever traveling back this way, we’ll definitely seek out this lovely desert homestead again.

We loved our stay! It felt remote and peaceful, yet was just 10 minutes away from shops/restaurants. The property is beautifully decorated and we loved being able to hang out with the farm animals. The bathroom was nicer than many stage parks. Highly recommended for a fun family getaway!

Fun and funky camping
This was our first Hip Camp experience as we normally camp in state and national parks and we really enjoyed it. Heidi and Khalil are welcoming and friendly hosts and offer a fun and funky alternative camping spot. We loved the sunset view with the distant city lights, the enormous night sky, the sounds of bleating baby goats and a morning rooster, meeting interesting fellow campers, and the occasional visits from Peaches and Bandit (the hosts dogs) who checked on us throughout our stay. Highly recommend if you’re looking for an off-grid, alternative camping experience. Thanks for sharing your property with us!
