Beautiful home in an amazing location. Well appointed and you can't beat the feeling of being submersed in nature. The elements have gotten to the outside of the house since our last stay, and some maintenance is due, but this does not diminish the quality of the stay or location. We will definitely look forward to another visit. Many thanks to a wonderful host!

Pinos altos cabin

Wonderful home in the hills very quiet with hiking trails just out the door. Hiking the “agave garden” was a little rough in places requiring some bush walking, but the 4 mile trail right next to driveway entrance is fabulous.

About the host

Hosted by Laura

Host profile image
The owner, Bruce, was a factory worker, logger, newspaper reporter, PR flunkie, and unpublished fiction writer before he discovered computers and lost all interest in reality. He spent 12 years in a computer fog, but gave it all up to move to the Silver City area in 1999. He is now in recovery, but does find time to manage an office building and a few other business projects in town.

Why they chose this property

Bruce lived in this beautiful house for five years before turning it into a vacation rental. If you don't book it, he probably will. It's a sacred place that he likes to share with others.

What makes this property unique

Beyond us are only a couple of tiny communities and a hundred miles of wilderness. In this secluded environment, you can hear the diverse sounds of many different varieties of birds, view the Milky Way amidst the dark, starry night skies, watch breath-taking sunsets right from the living room, and hike many nearby trails all the while reconnecting with the natural world AND your own inner landscape.
