This is a non-smoking, no candle facility. The camp was founded 40 years ago as a summer camp for kids. We continue to offer camps for children and their parents and grandparents (family camps), as well as welcome adults and other groups to enjoy the vast and wild high desert nature up on this ridge. Register for our nature education activities and resources available for everyone who stays on the property. These topics include sustainability, recycling, composting, water conservation, wildfire prevention, outdoor safety, and nature awareness along with the use of our hiking trails. You can also join an archery class, tomahawk throwing, climbing on the mobile climbing wall, Yoga, Qigong, Climbing Into The Heart of the Mother Tree, Star talks and more... There are beautiful views and access to Shaggy Peak, the southernmost tip of the Rocky Mountains and the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range. Wander our land to enjoy various level hiking trails including a 20 minute hike to a creek and waterfall in the forest (some steep spots and creek is intermittent) or climb up Shaggy Peak (seasoned hikers only please). IMPORTANT: We are up 1.3 miles of dirt road (with 5-7+% grade in a few short stretches) and are not near public transportation so you will need your own vehicle! Be aware that the roads can be snowy, icy or muddy and rutted ( 4-wheel or All-trak recommended in certain times of year). We don’t guarantee the road will be plowed. We generally close for the season due to cold weather around Halloween and reopen just before Memorial Day.

Ciana and Brad’s campsites are in an absolutely beautiful location nestled in the mountains with the most clear view of the Milky Way. They were both super accommodating and great at communicating. We also loved how clean and convenient all the amenities were!! Could not recommend enough!

We did some RV camping and had a great time. Brad, Ciana, and John all were very attentive to us, giving us advise on where to go and what to do. The camp host John tended the fire for us each night as we and the other campers shared stories. It was the end of the season so it was incredibly quiet and peaceful at the camp. With all the activities that they offer, I bet it's a hoot to spend time here with a family with kids.

I wish we had more time to stay here, but were just passing through. My site was nice and level with beautiful views of hills around and below. I love astronomy and would love to get back for the unbelievable dark skies overhead, surprising considering how close we were to Santa Fe. Also, the bathrooms are shockingly nice and clean; a treat after several days on the road!

Ciana and Brad's property is beautiful and meticulously maintained. We tent camped for two nights. The site was compact but it was nice having access to a great bathroom, shower, and kitchen. The location feels remote even though it's close to Santa Fe.

Beautiful spot, warm hosts, great hikes. Can't think of a better spot to hand to escape Santa Fe bustle. Facilities are well maintained, and even with the heaviest rain and lightning, the roads were quite decent for our camper van
