If you are looking to relax, the property includes a grassy bank along El Rito Creek next to a swimming hole, an ideal place to sunbathe and unwind.

Downhill ski resorts in Taos, Santa Fe, and Los Alamos are not far, and the splendor of northern New Mexico is within easy reach.

A great many interesting towns, villages, Indian pueblos, museums and galleries, restaurants and local events lie within visiting range while staying in our home. In El Rito you should consider tasting the best chili verde in New Mexico at El Farolito restaurant (the best and only restaurant in town), you should visit Martin’s General Store, serving El Rito since the early 1900’s, visit the San Juan Nepomuceno church, completed in 1832, or visit the El Rito Public Library.
