    Hotel Luna Mystica is a vintage trailer hotel and campground in Taos, NM. We are an independent property, located 15 minutes from downtown Taos, near the Gorge Bridge, Mamby Hot Springs and Earthship Biotecture. We are also next door to Taos Mesa Brewing, a full restaurant and venue. Our camp sites are primitive but we do have a free standing tiny house with 2 indoor bathrooms/showers, 2 outdoor showers, and a utility sink with great drinking water on the outside. We have WiFi which may help as cell service is spotty on the west side of Taos. Access to our brand new lounge! Sites are not marked, we prefer to let people find places that feel good to them. The area is safe. No creepy crawlies, just coyotes, bunnies, friendly dogs and a cat. There are fire pits and wood is available for purchase on site. Please respect neighbors, campground is mellow.

    Ojo Caliente, New Mexico

    Welcome to Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort & Spa, a gem nestled in the high country of New Mexico. This spot is perfect if you love hot springs and vintage campers. The campground offers a mix of tent, RV, cabin, glamping, and yurt accommodations, making it a versatile choice for any type of camper.

The spa boasts a variety of pools with different temperatures and mineral contents, steam rooms, a mud bath, and even a lap swimming pool. It's a bit pricey, but many visitors say it's worth every penny. If you plan your visit for early or mid-week, you'll find it less crowded.

    The campground itself is equipped with electric hookups, drinking water, and a sanitary dump station, though the latter comes with an extra fee. The bathhouse is well-maintained, offering hot showers and flush toilets. For those who need to stay connected, there's electricity and Wi-Fi, though cell service can be spotty.

    Foodies will appreciate the on-site restaurant and pub, which has received high praise for its delicious offerings. If you're into hiking, there are trails right from the property and the nearby national forest offers even more outdoor adventures.

    Pets are welcome, and there's a market on-site for any essentials you might need. Just a heads-up, the nearest full-service town is Espanola, about 30 minutes away, so plan accordingly.

    Overall, Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort & Spa offers a unique blend of relaxation and adventure, making it a must-visit destination for anyone looking to unwind and explore the beauty of New Mexico.
