A 3-Story Log Cabin for Families & Large Gatherings

1963 Original Homestead, Lovingly Restored
Originally built in 1963 as the property's homestead, this gorgeously restored cabin sits elevated among golden aspen trees. The grand hand-built stone fireplace — the heart of the home — anchors a warm, inviting living space. Three mini-splits provide year-round climate control, and the beautiful deck overlooks farm animals and forest. From April through December, the Aspen Outpost is included as an add-on unit for extra guests.
Accommodation 03
Perched Above the Treetops, Steps from Cowles Ponds
Fully remodeled and perched high above the canyon with sweeping mountain views, Crestview is the most dramatic setting on the property. Double decks, a wood-burning stove, modern kitchen, outdoor firepit, hammocks, and swing chairs make it perfect for groups wanting both comfort and elevation. Situated near Cowles Ponds — some of the best public trout fishing in New Mexico — with easy access to the Pecos Wilderness.
Accommodation 04
Perfect for Two Couples or Multi-Gen Families
Two private units connected by a central hallway — rent one side ($170/night) or the entire duplex ($295/night) for complete privacy. Each unit has a queen bed, full bath, and kitchenette. The private yard and fire pit out back are yours exclusively. An ideal setup for two couples, families with teens, grandparents with grandkids, or any group that wants togetherness with personal space.
Accommodation 05
Rustic Charm · Simple Living · Big Stars
Once a humble 10×14 ft tool shed, beautifully transformed into a cozy mountain escape for solo travelers and couples seeking a true digital detox. Overlooking the farm with free-ranging chickens, ducks, and turkeys. Keurig, mini fridge, toaster oven, private deck, picnic table, and fire pit included. Eco-friendly with outhouse and hand pump sink. Fall asleep to the sound of wind through the aspens and wake up to roosters at first light.
Accommodation 06
1973 Vintage Glamping Under the Stars
Meet the Blue Jay — a lovingly restored 1973 retro camper outfitted with a new deck, solar lighting, and an outdoor living area nestled in the trees. A throwback glamping experience that pairs vintage personality with modern mountain charm. Guests may also pitch one small tent in the yard area. Fall asleep to the sound of the forest and wake up to fresh mountain air at 7,700 feet.
