One of four local wineries. In the summers it tends to be lively with plenty of outdoor seating and live music many evenings. They serve small snacks or you can bring your own.

Within walking distance is this small, local, and much loved cafe. Excellent New Mexican food for breakfast, lunch, or an early dinner. Their red and green chile is some of the best we’ve had in New Mexico. They also have sandwiches and ice cream. Beer and wine. Patio dining available.

This place has outstanding food, moderate prices, and gets crowded. The homemade desserts are legendary, and the Sunday brunch is a must visit. If you are going for dinner, you can make reservations.

Just a few driveways up Highway 75, to the right. Housed in a cozy adobe building with a mellow atmosphere. The vines are older, making the wine very special.

One of our favorite hikes is on the trail that begins at the back of the campground: the West Fork Trail. Not accessible in the wintertime.

Absolutely beautiful year round. Great for hiking, camping, fishing, rafting, picnicking, and scenic drives. Keep a look out for bighorn sheep - it’s not unusual to see them foraging near roads and trails.
