The three miles of dirt roads are passable year-round and give the feeling that you are 'out there'. The Carson Cafe and Grocery are about three miles away if you need something or want a taste of local flavor. We don't allow pets, but there's a great kennel just 2 miles away on the drive in. The caretaker lives on the premises across the road and will welcome you with a brief orientation.

This area is one of the most beautiful in northern New Mexico, and the property itself is a gem! It's rare to find such tall piñon pines and junipers. Natives inhabited the land many years ago, so you might be lucky enough to find an arrowhead or relic left behind. Come spend time on this special land!
