Welcoming you to the Gila Wilderness!

Sapillo Creek Escape is a one of a kind gem in the Gila Wilderness. Come experience our beautiful home in the Gila National Forest for a relaxing and rejuvenating vacation. Adjacent to Lake Roberts and minutes from the Continental Divide, our custom-built, southwest style home features comfort and luxury with incredible mountain views, 20 acres for hiking and enjoying the outdoors, plus the Gila right outside the door. Proximity to Silver City, NM means the best of both worlds – nature and serenity plus restaurants, galleries, shops and loads of local events.

Our home boasts 4 kiva fireplaces, Santa Fe style design with saltillo tile and custom touches throughout. Strategically placed windows and decks capture the beauty of the surrounding scenery. Sapillo Creek Escape borders the Gila National Forest on several sides, and additionally, the pristine Sapillo Creek runs through the property. If you’re a fisherman, bring your reel and fish right on the property, or take a quick drive to Lake Roberts for fishing, canoeing and kayaking.

Take a hike in the Gila or around Lake Roberts, visit the Gila Cliff Dwellings or Hot Springs, or take a scenic drive into Silver City for dining, shopping, museums, and a multitude of galleries and events. Kick back and relax on one of our many decks and porches, enjoy the view and the peaceful sound of the wind in the pine trees. Take a nighttime walk on our property to view the stars – the Gila National Forest enjoys some of the darkest skies in the continental U.S.

Over 3,000 square feet in the home at your disposal, this place is made for just you or you and your family and friends to enjoy the Gila Wilderness.

This is one of a kind space hosting four full bedrooms with adjoining decks that show off majestic views at 6,000 feet elevation. There are three full bathrooms and 4 kiva fireplaces!

You have access to it all!

The entire house was built by hand and it took nearly 7 years to complete. Everything is custom and I can promise you that you will never stay in a place like this!

A great location to retreat to and escape from the everyday! We want you to share this jewel with your family, friends, biking crew, birding group, hiking tribe, fishing buds, and your hunting pals to enjoy Sapillo Creek Escape!

We will entertain pets so long as they get along with other pets and have their recent vaccinations. If you are bringing a cat/cats or a dog/dogs, we have had issues with pets soiling the carpet and scratching up the doors. Please crate or keep pets in their carriers when you are not in the house or take your pets with you. We avail the use of a dog crate in the common area for dog(s) and for cats, please bring your own cat carrier. Also, please keep them off of the furniture to make it easier to clean and to be mindful of future guests who may be allergic. Finally, please pick up after them and throw the poop bags into a larger trash bag since we have to take the trash out to the dump and keeping track of all the individual poop bags is disgusting and annoying.

Finally, you’re on 20 acres of our land, so camping is also welcome!

We are available via cell, text and email.

Only cell service out here is T-Mobile.

We will have internet access but there are no TVs in the home. We want you to disconnect while you are here and enjoy the environment around you!
