About this property

Carson Cabin: Updated Mountain Getaway w/ Wraparound Deck + Private King Suite

Welcome to Carson Cabin! This cozy mountainside cabin is nestled in the Upper Red River Valley, which is surrounded by Carson National Forest at 9,100 ft elevation. Just minutes from the town of Red River, you have access to shopping and dining, while enjoying the peacefulness of the mountains in a beautiful cabin.

Located in the Enchanted Circle, there are endless opportunities to explore and have fun all year long! You can hike, fish, ride, and/or bike during the spring, summer, and fall months or take advantage of some of the best snow sports in the country all winter. If relaxing is more your vibe, Carson Cabin is the perfect location to sit on the deck and watch a mountain sunrise while enjoying a cup of joe.

The Space
Carson Cabin has everything you need to enjoy a trip to the mountains. Words can’t describe how relaxing it is to wake up and gaze out the windows looking out at beautiful trees and mountains on the horizon.

This is a 3-bedroom / 2-bathroom mountainside home with a well-stocked kitchen and everything you need to cook for a family.

LIVING
Carson Cabin’s living area provides a place to unwind and relax after a day of fishing, hiking, shopping, skiing or whatever adventure you find yourself enjoying. The living area is furnished with a sofa, recliner, and two accent chairs positioned around a rock fireplace. There is H-D Smart Roku TV with access to your favorite streaming shows, as well as a selection of family card/board games.

KITCHEN & DINING
Carson Cabin’s kitchen is fully stocked and includes everything you need to cook for a family. It features a range cook-top and oven, dishwasher, microwave, pots, pans, blender, toaster, crockpot, coffee pot, coffee grinder, Keurig and much more! Whether you are fixing a light meal or a full family dinner, you will find everything you need! Sit down to eat at the kitchen nook dining table or the picnic table outside.

• Trout Room - King
• Bathroom – downstairs
• Trail Room – Queen, upstairs

LAUNDRY
Carson Cabin comes equipped with a washer/dryer center for your convenience. Laundry detergent is not provided.

PARKING
In addition to driveway parking, the circle drive provides enough space for 3-4 vehicles or a trailer carrying all your favorite mountain toys. During winter months, when there is snow or ice on the ground, the driveway should not be used for parking out of an abundance of caution.

NOTE: The last mile of the drive is via dirt roads. Cars and sedans will have no issues accessing the cabin during warm weather months. However, all-wheel or 4-wheel drive vehicles are needed during the winter (snow chains may be necessary in extreme conditions). Winter weather in New Mexico can be unpredictable, so please prepare accordingly. Please also note that all-wheel or 4-wheel drive vehicles are recommended in the spring (April to early May) when roads can become muddy due to the snow melting.

• Side Deck – Picnic dining table
• Fire Pit (must follow local fire restrictions when in place)

Beautiful Place to Experience Red River!
We had a great time at Carson Cabin. We have been enjoying Red River as a family for many years and have never stayed in the Upper Valley, Carson Cabin was the first place in the Upper Valley we have ever stayed and it did not disappoint. Cozy Cabin, Clean, Great Location, Beautiful Views, and only 10 - 15 Minutes from Town.

Cozy and quiet stay in the mountains
We had a great time at Carson Cabin. We loved being located in the forest and still having a short drive to town. The cabin is beautifully decorated, cozy, quiet, well stocked and super clean. The online guide provided by the hosts was excellent - I wish all hosts would provide something similar. We’d love to come back in the summer.

WONDERFUL!
We had such a wonderful time. The property is absolutely beautiful and suited our needs perfectly. The neighborhood is quiet, and the views are breathtaking. We had 3 large trucks, trailers, and ATVs, and there was perfect parking for all our vehicles, which was a blessing! (and hard to find!) Access to all the amazing offroad trails was near and easy to access. The short drive to town was just perfect. The cabin is beyond lovely, very homey and welcoming. The owners are very kind and helpful. Truly one of the very best vacation homes we have rented, it was hard to leave! I would highly recommend staying here and hope to return again someday! Thank you so much for having us, we have great memories here.

Cooler weather
The cooler weather lured us to Red River and we chose the Carson Cabin because it was the perfect size and location. The cabin is outfitted perfectly for cooking in and grilling out. Everything is new and very comfortable.

About the host

Host profile image
We are the Wilson family from Edmond, OK! Lacie's family has been vacationing in Red River for multiple generations and Chris was introduced to the area while we were dating. Fast forward a few years and we now take our two daughters! We enjoy all things outdoors, including stream fishing, hiking, and horseback riding in the summer and fall, and skiing in the winter. We also love playing games and spending time in the cabin together. Nothing beats dinner cooked on a charcoal grill followed up with s'mores for dessert!

We truly hope you enjoy your stay! Welcome to Carson Cabin!

It's only minutes from town surrounded by the beautiful views of the mountains. Carson Cabin is the best of both worlds as you are close enough to enjoy shopping and dining in town, while also having a relaxing, peaceful place to stay. Don't forget to bring your hammock and a good book!

What makes this property unique

Carson Cabin is great for families or couples looking for a peaceful getaway. You have the benefit of a beautiful, quiet location, with the convenience of being only minutes away from Red River. Located in the Enchanted Circle, you are also close Taos and Angel Fire.
