We are a retired couple who had lived high in the Colorado Rockies for the last 50 years. We camped at this property several summers ago. We immediately fell in love with the beauty and peacefulness. Native Americans inhabited this area over thousand years ago as evidenced by the Petrogylphs around the ranch. We feel honored to have the opportunity to preserve and share this ancient art. We had the opportunity to purchase the ranch from a lady who had an animal rescue on the ranch. Come and enjoy the beauty and peace that The Golden Rose Ranch provides. We moved in the summer of 2023 to CT because I could not breathe very well in Leadville at 10,152'. Our son lives in CT so it was a great place for us to spend the "last chapter" of our lives. The name, Golden Rose, comes from the restaurant that we owned in Leadville, Co, through much of the 20th century. Learn more about this land: We warmly welcome you to come and camp on our isolated 160 acre New Mexico ranch and experience peace, tranquility and breathtaking scenic beauty. Whether you're headed here or there on I-40, we're located just 5 miles off of the interstate. After a long days' drive, we offer a peaceful experience. Pitch a tent on one of several designated camping spots (or pick your own) or bring your RV or camper trailer and prepare yourself for amazing radiant sunsets, jaw-dropping night skies, and rejuvenating sunrises. During the day hike the surrounding red cliffs and mesas, view the ancient petroglyphs and find amazing pottery shards scattered throughout the property, or just hang out. Occasionally a herd of elk will venture out. At night you will be serenaded by the neighboring coyotes and resident spotted owls. Feel like exploring off the ranch? Visit the nearby Casamero Pueblo ruins a 1/2 mile down the road, Bluewater Lake State Park or drive to the small post-mining town of Grants and explore the Mining Museum, Bandera Volcano & Ice Cave, El Malpais National Monument and many other nearby interesting sites!

Site 1 - The Golden Rose Ranch
Great view
Campsite one had a great view. Someone should weed wack trail to site one and also an area for tent. Petroglyphs on property, but also a lot of graffiti on rocks.

Perfect
This campsite is absolutely breathtaking. The property is more intimate than it seems in pictures, but your campsite is very private and the views go on forever. I felt safe all night long as a solo female. The stars and the silence are incredible. Grateful I had the chance to stay here & I highly recommend to anyone

Site 3 - The Golden Rose Ranch
Beautiful site next to the red rocks. We felt very safe. Excellent communication. It rained while we were out and there were a few low muddy spots we didn’t want to try get the small passenger car through so we drove part way and walk the rest to get back to the site. We loved looking at the petroglyphs in the morning!!

Site 3 - The Golden Rose Ranch
beautiful!
This was a beautiful stay! Harry was communicative and provided detailed information and directions that made it easy for me to access the property and find my campsite. Waking up to my site’s view of the rocks was incredible. I would definitely recommend this HipCamp to anyone who wants to be immersed in a gorgeous landscape while also still being a short drive from the interstate.

Site 3 - The Golden Rose Ranch
Boon-Docking
The view from the site was beautiful, but the facilities were nonexistent. The information presented on the listing was not clear. Basically, we were boon-docking. The “road” to site 3 was not well traveled. We had rain all night and we were lucky we made it out the next morning. The path had huge puddles and we got stuck twice. Fortunately, my husband is a skilled driver and our trailer is very lightweight.
