The cabin offers a kitchen, dining area, an open living room with fireplace, three bedrooms and bathroom. You can barbecue on the private deck with a stunning view of the mountains and wild life. The cabin is located on a private road next to Bonito Creek and several hiking trails and Runnels Bonito Stables.

Bonito Stables / Runnels Outfitters specializes in wilderness trail riding. Located next to the Dos Lunas Cabin.
in preparation for your stay at Dos Lunas Cabin, here are a few things to go over with you:
1) If you’re unsure of how to find our cabin, we suggest using G Maps and typing in “Dos Lunas Cabin Nogal NM”.
2) Our cabin runs on solar energy and we get our water from the river, where it gets filtered before use. The filtered water is stored in containers on the roof. This makes our cabin completely self sufficient and eco-friendly! Because of this, we recommend that you and your party not use up too much water, as it could quickly drain the water supply.
4) All trash and waste must be put in bags and left inside near the entrance. Please DO NOT leave any trash outside, especially at night. This could attract animals and put you and the local wildlife at risk and could result in a fine from the local sheriff up to $300.
5) If extra firewood is needed, please help yourself to our stockpiled firewood in front of the cabin.
5) ( NO REFRIGERATOR ON SITE ) We HIGHLY recommend you bring enough ice to last you your trip if you aren’t planning on going into town, to ensure your food and perishables don’t go bad. We provide a large empty white cooler in the cabin in case you need to use one to store your extra ice.
6) If a beeping sound coming from the Solar Battery, please restart the inverter and disconnect tv and DVD player,if the problem continue, start the power generator and connect the plug (INSTRUCTIONS IS ON THE GUIDE OF THE CABIN ) or call us immediately at any time of the day or night for assistance.
We hope you enjoy your stay at our cabin, feel free to explore the trails and take in all the views. Have a great trip!
The cabin features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a kitchen island, and a dining table.

Amazing for outdoorsy people!!
We loved it!!! It was rustic and somewhat primitive for those who aren’t familiar with using propane heaters and fireplaces. It was amazing for us! The privacy, quietness, views, the trails, and the drive up there was beautiful… the hills were covered in snow!! We love primitive camping, fishing and exploring new places and this cabin was beautiful… and the owner knew we were coming up for Christmas and set up a tree for us. Thank you!! If you want to really get away from that city life!! This is the place!!!

Hummingbird heaven
It was so so beautiful! We asked, in advance, if we could have our wedding there. It was absolutely magical! We knew we needed to cook in advance and brought extra coolers and ice to account for no fridge. The cabin is magical and all the kiddos loved the swing and watching the hummingbirds dive around from morning to night. We highly recommend this property if you're trying to get away from all the noise. We took the trail down the road (for a little while) our newly wedded family loved the whole stay!

Extremely Disappointing
Place was not properly ready for somebody to stay there. Lighting was not very good at all and water pressure was extremely low. Place had no refrigerator and would never recommend this place to anyone.
