Ultimate peace and privacy. Nestled in juniper-wooded hills with sweeping views. Close to Albuquerque (20 minutes) and Santa Fe (40 minutes) but feels like a secluded retreat. Most people have no problem finding my place by entering my address in their GPS. However, I have had 2 HipCampers report their GPS directed them to a road called Camino de las Brisas or Las Brisas Loop. Turning here will lead you to a steep, dangerous road where it will be very difficult to turn around if you're in an RV and impossible with a trailer. Continue on Camino de Las Huertas to Senda Osa Vieja. It's marked with a street sign, a stone monument with brass plate. There's also a blue "private road" sign with a dragon. This land was purchased in 1956 by my archeologist parents because of the ancient pueblo site (dating from 1000 A.D.) and pit house sites (dating from 800 A.D.) Until the mega drought seriously impacted the land, a stream ran through it year round. Now it is only intermittent. Across the valley from this property, and within view of the campsite, is the site of a Spanish Colonial village, San Jose de las Huertas. It dates from the 1700s and is now owned by the Archeological Conservancy. This area is rich in history both Native American and Spanish. Learn more about this land: Located in the high desert 20 minutes from Albuquerque and 40 minutes from Santa Fe. Views of Sandia mountains, and near historic archeological sites. Within a 10 minute drive are popular mountain biking trails. Petroglyphs are a 20 minute, moderately strenuous hike from property. Very peaceful, quiet and safe.

Susan was great host- ready with good insights on the area but also respectful of one's privacy. The site had accessible water and 110 service, great added value! Very private setting- a worthwhile layover on your way through NM!

The perfect rest stop on our way through New Mexico. We pulled right into the site with our airstream no problem. Susan was there to greet us. We settled in and enjoyed watching the wild horses nearby. Lots of lovely birds all around too. Very quiet and peaceful.

A bit of heaven

This natural scenic space is wonderfully quiet and great for night sky viewing. We loved our private stay here away from the noise and presence of other campers. Having the place to ourselves made it a special treat. It's a unique setting and Susan is a delightful host. Highly recommended.

We arrived later than planned and Susan was kind enough to set a light out for us to be able to see. The land is so peaceful with beautiful views. We roamed around the area and came across a wild horse. We didn’t bother him and he didn’t bother us. There are also some amazing hiking spots within the area. Would definitely consider staying again.
