About this property

Private Mountain Estate Lodge, Guest Suites & Bunkhouse

La Joya at Arabela – A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Lincoln County

Escape to La Joya at Arabela, a truly special retreat nestled at the foothills of the majestic Capitan Mountains and bordering the breathtaking Lincoln National Forest. Surrounded by wide-open skies, stunning natural beauty, and peaceful ranch country, this private property offers the perfect setting for family gatherings, friends' getaways, corporate retreats, and unforgettable group experiences.

Designed as a private lodging compound, La Joya features three unique accommodations that combine historic charm, comfort, and authentic New Mexico character.

The Main Lodge at La Joya

The historic Main Lodge welcomes guests with timeless Southwestern charm. Rich wood beams, natural rock walls, and warm, inviting spaces create a cozy atmosphere that feels both rustic and refined. Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living area with TV and fireplace, full bath, private courtyard, and a covered porch with seating—perfect for morning coffee, evening conversations, and taking in the mountain air.

The Suites at La Joya

Just steps away, the Suites at La Joya provide additional privacy and comfort. This separate building features two spacious queen suites, two full bathrooms, air conditioning, and convenient coffee service, making it ideal for couples, additional family members, or retreat guests seeking their own space.

La Joya Bunkhouse

Perfect for larger groups, kids, or extra guests, the Bunkhouse offers four twin beds in a comfortable open-concept space. Complete with a TV, table, and full bathroom, it's a fun and practical addition located right next to the Main Lodge.

Experience the Best of New Mexico

Impeccably maintained and wonderfully quiet, La Joya is the ideal basecamp for outdoor adventure and relaxation alike. Hiking trails, scenic mountain roads, and side-by-side access are located just down the road, offering endless opportunities to explore the beauty of Lincoln County.

At night, enjoy brilliant star-filled skies and the peaceful solitude that only a truly remote destination can provide.

A Private Retreat with Personalized Service

Because of our remote location, we recommend bringing groceries, meals, and any personal essentials you may need during your stay. The nearest major shopping destinations are Ruidoso (45 minutes away) and Roswell (1 hour away).

To make your stay even more memorable, Nikki, your dedicated Ranch Concierge, lives on the property and is available to assist with questions, recommendations, and guest needs. We also offer full-service catering, allowing you to create a customized New Mexico experience without ever leaving the ranch.

Whether you're gathering around the fireplace, exploring forest trails, hosting a retreat, or simply enjoying the peace and beauty of the high desert, La Joya at Arabela is a destination where lasting memories are made.
