You’re going to love what you see at Mills Canyon Campground.

It’s remote, the scenery is top notch, and its right by the Canadian River. Plus, the remnants of brick buildings add a nice touch. It is recommended that you bring high-clearance vehicles (not cars or vehicles pulling trailers) as the road leading to camp is very narrow, steep, and winding. The nearby village of Roy was used as a filming location for the Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker flick, Did You Hear About The Morgans?

Escape to Vida Bonita Ranch, a 1670-acre nature haven in northern New Mexico, where diverse landscapes of mesas, meadows, forests, and awe-inspiring cliffs create a breathtaking backdrop for your next adventure. With two miles of the Mora River winding through our property, immerse yourself in outdoor experiences like fishing, swimming, and floating. Our off-grid ranch boasts world-class stargazing and is home to an array of wildlife, including elk, deer, bears, mountain lions, turkeys, and mountain goats. Discover the remnants of old ruins, explore canyons, and visit our friendly farm animals. Bring your bikes, horses, or off-road vehicles for endless exploration – and don't forget, horseback riding is coming in 2023! Roam freely across the entire property, and enjoy your campsite equipped with a heavy-duty metal fire ring, swivel grate for grilling, and a picnic table with an umbrella. As we're off-grid, lanterns and flashlights are strongly encouraged for navigating the darkness. A porta-potty is conveniently located nearby. We have a few essentials at our on-site store, offering charcoal, eggs, snack foods, drinks, and more. Keep in mind that the nearest gas station is 75 minutes away, and cell service can be intermittent. Please arrive before sunset, as the roads leading to the property are dark and isolated, and be prepared for loose gravel that may affect your vehicle. At Vida Bonita Ranch, we're committed to preserving the land's pristine beauty. As a trash-free campsite, we ask that you take out any trash you bring in, or face a $50 fee. Embrace the spirit of sustainability and make lasting memories in our undisturbed wilderness. Book your stay now at Vida Bonita Ranch – the ultimate off-grid adventure awaits!

HAWK RIM RANCH

2 sites · Lodging1250 acres · Trementina, Nm, NM
~THE OLD WEST, A NEW VISION~ This ranch- our family’s dream in the becoming; our lifeblood is our commitment to a legacy of land stewardship for over 100 hundred years. In a world that is day by day more virtual, this is the real deal. It is our desire to carefully share some of its wonder, its magic and the healing that no modern medicine can offer. Historic, clean, comfortable carefully renovated accommodations. Peace and serenity at our medicine wheel, recenter/rejuvenate. Guided tours to incredible canyon views, hiking trails, wildlife and ranch animals. (Detailed in EXTRAS upon booking.) (Previously listed- Largo Rim Ranch until we noticed the outline of the canyon rim was in the shape a hawk with outstretched wings. ) Other EXTRAS- A sweat equity offer as a Stewardship Partner to participate in helping to address certain erosion issues occurring within the Hawk. We ourselves have found that in this work, we have gained a measure of our own healing. Come and join us, prepared with work gloves, sturdy boots, plenty of water and a will to make a difference one rock at a time! How this works: Book 1 night thru Hipcamp as a guest(s), then include each Stewardship Partner in the EXTRAS offer for 2 more nights without charge.

We are CLOSED until further notice- 2024 UPDATE: Spring of 2022 we had devastating Fires and Floods to our property and area. We need to rebuild and clear and reseed the burned areas. Please keep us in mind for your next visit to our area. After passing our gardens and animals, you will be in the woods, surrounded by nature. Complete with 'sounds of the country' with sheep, chickens, turkeys, and our livestock guardian dogs in the distance. Set up your camp in an old growth tree forest. Slowly, you will unwind and relax. A change comes over you, softening and lightening your perceptions of what is important. We cherish our woods and invite you to feel the sway of the trees. We are setting up hikes, walks, and we are rebuilding our Remote Control off road course(Remote Controlled 4x4's ). We are rebuilding the Bathhouse Outdoor Kitchen area, lawn games, and all the RV and camping sites. There is a small fee for the Day- use of the Remote Control course. Message us for specifics. **If you are attending the RC Festivals in August September, please mention it in your message to us. We have a different fee arranged for RC off road 4x4 Festival camping participants. As well as Pancake breakfasts, lunches and grilled dinners in the works. NOTE: The fire 🔥 flashed FAST through our woods. Charring trees and bushes. Which will singed for several years. Because of this, there will be more pastured meadows than before. As well as more flowers and underbrush. Keep an eye out for our sheep grazing these new pastures. With the June and July rains we should have fresh new grass, leaves, plants by the time of your visit.

I was a little concerned about the access road into the canyon. I found it to be easy to navigate when dry in a loaded pickup truck. A few of the sites have some good shade trees but most sites are most exposed during the day. Campsites were well equipped and the toilets were clean.

There are two campgrounds, one upper and one lower. The lower requires four wheel drive but is well worth the trip. The Canadian river runs thru the lower and it is less populated.

This place was HOT! Granted, we decided to camp here in the middle of July-probably not the best choice. There were a lot of flies too. But I think it would be gorgeous in the off-season. The old ranch house and canyon made for some lovely photographs, and it wasn't bad once the sun went down. It was so hot we took a dip in the very muddy river-at that point we didn't care! We had the place to ourselves-not sure if it was because it was mid-week or due to the weather. At any rate, it was a nice place. Quite different from any other place I've been in New Mexico. It was very quiet and the stars were incredible!
