Serene 70's Retro Retreat
Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway, located between some true New Mexico gems: San Antonio Hot Springs, Valles Caldera National Preserve, and Fenton Lake.
Just 60 miles north of Albuquerque, this unique hideaway is true to the 70s theme! Built in 1973, this groovy cabin sits on more than 4.5 acres that border the Santa Fe National Forest. Spend your days lounging in the hammocks, your evenings by the cozy fireplace inside, or roasting marshmallows by the fire pit.
Welcome to peace and quiet!
No matter what kind of retreat you are looking for, this property has it. Enjoy a walk through an aspen grove, a forest of pine or around the rock formations unique to the Jemez mountains. Go mountain biking down to Ice Cave Canyon, take a drive to the Valles Caldera for the evening to hear the elk bugle, or just relax during the day in a hammock and nap.
Two miles from the San Antonio Hot Springs, our cozy cabin is a perfect respite from the busy hustle and bustle of normal life. Built in 1973, enjoy the nostalgia of original fixtures, dishes and decor, but comfier! Enjoy the endless starry skies at night and clean mountain air as this haven is located at almost 9000 feet!
The full cabin is welcome for you to use! The single bedroom is equipped with black out curtains so you can sleep in to your hearts desire. The living room has a pull out sofa bed with added foam topper to make sure everyone gets a good nights sleep.
The driveway is a bit steep, but can hold at least 4 vehicles. Feel free to park left of the driveway, but please leave the road open for our neighbors.
Please be sure to check the National Park Service website for any closures in the area.
Given our remote location, power outages are common, especially during inclement weather. Please note that the cabin sits atop the Jemez Mountains, accessible via narrow mountain roads. In winter, these roads may be covered in snow or ice, requiring a four-wheel drive for safe passage. It's highly recommended to have chains available for added traction
Property is equipped with 3 outdoor cameras and a Ring doorbell camera for guest and property security.
We do allow pets, however, there is an additional cleaning fee of $30 per pet per night to cover the extra cleaning required. Our property is not fenced. Please use caution as your furry friend will be finding lots of new smells and as the Jemez is full of deer, elk, squirrels, chipmunks, bobcats, coyotes, bear, plenty of birds, and even Mexican wolves, we ask that you keep your animal on a leash to make sure they stay safe and refer to our house rules for more information. Thank you, and we look forward to hosting you!

Cozy cabin with enough amenities to make your trip easy but to feel like you’re getting away from daily life. The hosts were very helpful before and during our stay. Would definitely take my family back to enjoy the nature around and on the property

Sulphur Springs Weekend
This place is amazing! Not to far from Albuquerque. A perfect place to enjoy nature for the weekend. Peaceful location too... Cabin has a full kitchen set up to make them homemade meals. Full bathroom was a nice thing to have up there too. Pet friendly was a plus!! We are definitely going back to this place in the future.
