1 Bedroom Cabin in Tererro

This cabin does not have a bathroom or shower. It has a double seater outhouse & a camping toilet inside for night use. There is no shower on the property for this cabin. If u want to bathe, I suggest a sponge bathe inside the sink or basin provided. We are pet friendly. There is a $25 pet fee for each pet. This is a Cowboy Cabin back in time. This 19th Century mountain cabin which sets right on the famous Pecos River in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in Tererro, NM. The Cabin has been studied, dated, and is one of the last original homesteads in the area. This is a true historic site maintained by descendants of original family for six generations . The cabin was built circa 1860 and is what pioneers called a 'dugout'. A dugout was an efficient way of setting a solid foundation with three of the four exterior walls being embedded in the ground. This helped insulate the cabin and made the structure easy to defend. This cabin is a two room cabin with a cozy studio feel. The cabin is even outfitted with a old time outhouse or as our ancestors called it, a 'powder room'. The outhouse sets about fifteen yards behind the cabin and is the toilet used at the cabin, but if you are a little weary about going out at dark don't worry, there is a camp toilet inside to use. This is an outdoors enthusiasts dream come true, that being said this is not the Hilton Garden Inn. If you want to experience a real mountain getaway and are ok with heating by wood stoves and experiencing life as you would 200 years ago with a few modern conveniences then this is the place for you. Start by waking up early and having your coffee on the patio listening to the flow of the Acequia which feeds into the pond right at your front door, enjoying the view of humming birds and mule deer moving through the river banks. Enjoy some of the best fly fishing in the world for Rainbow and German Brown trout without ever needing to go more than just a few feet on your own private section of the river. Later before lunch comb the area for turquoise and silver. The small now ghost town of Terrero was made famous as a busting mining town in the days of the old west. The original mine sets less than a half mile from the cabin across Hwy 63 from the entrance to property. After cooking some your those fresh cold water trout for lunch take a hike up the canyon in the middle of the Sante Fe National Forrest to see elk, eagle, deer, and other wildlife. If the quiet seclusion is too much don’t worry, the town of Pecos is only about a 25 minute ride through the beautiful river canyon. You can google search other amenities like horse back riding. There are guided pack tours for the sportsman out there for elk, deer, and bear hunts. For a more vibrant experience head to the historic town of Santa Fe which is about an hour ride south where you will experience excellent southwest cuisine inspired by native chilies harvested from the area as well as native southwestern art, and heritage. The town also receives its fair share of entertainers from local bars to large scale concerts. Be sure to hit Jacolopes on Cerillos for great souvenirs and the Native Market at 'Old Towne' for authentic southwest jewelry, and art. After a day in town come back to a quiet evening, start a fire in the pit and enjoy the clearest sky you will ever see. The stars are countless and the evening air is cool, just like the perfect fall night, but in summer. At last you will be rocked to sleep by the sound of the rushing river outside. A true paradise awaits you. For interesting reading on the area be sure to look up 'Pioneers of the Upper Most Pecos', and Beatty's Cabin.
