About this property

60-Acre Stargazer Estate | Pool, Saunas & Games

  • Summary:

    Coffee on the porch, 60 private acres, and nothing but Organ Mountain skyline!



    • Heated pool & spa

    • Two private saunas

    • Rooftop deck & fire pit

    • Game room with arcade, pool, ping pong

    • Outdoor gym with mountain views

    • 15 minutes to Las Cruces



    The Space:

    Climb up to the rooftop deck around golden hour, pull a chair to the fire pit table, and watch the Organ Mountains turn pink. This is 60 private acres of New Mexico desert, and for a few days it's all yours!



    Inside, the 3,000 square foot layout stays open and sun-filled, with two indoor fireplaces and a chef's kitchen that looks straight out at the mountains.



    Where everyone sleeps:



    • Bedroom 1: King, ensuite bath, baby crib

    • Bedroom 2: Queen, rocking chair

    • Bedroom 3: Two queens

    • Bedroom 4: King, dedicated workspace

    • Bedroom 5: King, expansive windows



    Every bedroom has its own smart TV.



    The garage is the sleeper hit. Roll the big door up and play pool, ping pong, air hockey, foosball, darts and arcade games with panoramic mountain views as your backdrop. Step outside for badminton, horseshoes and cornhole, then finish the night at the outdoor fireplace with the grill going.



    This one is built for families, reunions and groups who want real room to roam. Worth knowing: the rooftop deck is up a flight of stairs, so it isn't ideal for anyone who'd rather stay on one level.



    Our local team is close by throughout your stay, so you can drop your bags and just enjoy the quiet out here.



    Guest Access:

    You'll have the entire home and all 60 acres to yourselves. The only spot that stays locked is our cleaners' closet.



    The Neighborhood:

    Right outside: Hiking and biking trails start at the property, with national monument land and scenic desert trails just minutes up the road.



    Food & drink: About 15 minutes into Las Cruces for New Mexican classics, green chile everything, a winery bistro, brunch spots and full grocery stores.



    Day trips: White Sands National Park is roughly an hour away, and El Paso is about an hour south.



    Good to know: You get all the privacy of the desert with town close enough for a dinner run.



    Nearby Attractions:

    • Organ Mountains–Desert Peaks National Monument – Stunning desert peaks with hiking, biking, and breathtaking panoramic views just minutes away.

    • Dripping Springs Natural Area – Scenic hiking trails, historic ruins, and beautiful mountain backdrops at the base of the Organs.

    • White Sands National Park – Iconic white gypsum dunes (about 1 hour away), perfect for sledding, sunset views, and photography.

    • Prehistoric Trackways National Monument – Explore ancient fossilized footprints and rugged desert terrain in the Robledo Mountains.

    • New Mexico Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum – Interactive exhibits highlighting the region’s ranching and agricultural history.



    Restaurants:

    • The Shed – Beloved spot for classic New Mexican eats like green chile cheeseburgers and Southwestern favorites.

    • D. H. Lescombes Winery & Bistro – Casual bistro with wine tasting and upscale comfort food; great for lunch or dinner.

    • La Nueva Casita Cafe – Cozy local favorite for homestyle New Mexican breakfasts and comfort classics.

    • Si Señor Restaurant – Highly rated Mexican restaurant with flavorful enchiladas, tacos, and margaritas.

    • A Bite Of Belgium – Popular brunch spot with Belgian waffles, coffee, and pastries.



    Getting Around:

    A car is really the way to go out here. Parking is easy in the driveway, and town is a quick 15 minute drive for groceries or dinner. Uber and Lyft do operate in Las Cruces, but pickups this far out can be slow, so plan on driving.

We had a wonderful stay. The home was very well-appointed with a variety of sitting areas, inside and out, to stretch out and relax. An abundance of natural light via skylights and terrific views made for an enjoyable experience. While there were only the two of us on our trip, the house would be excellent for large family groups given the ample space and floor plan.

Beautiful home!

This is a wonderful property. It was clean, well-maintained, and exceptionally peaceful. It is only five minutes to a beautiful hiking trail in Soledad Canyon, about 15 minutes to an equally beautiful trail in Dripping Springs, and about 45 minutes to White Sands National Park (which is well worth the drive). The owner (Theo) was easily reachable and generally replied to our pre-visit questions within just a few minutes. I highly recommend this property.

Family Holiday Retreat

WOW!!! The property and the experience were terrific. 15 of us ages 7 months to 94 years old celebrated the Christmas holidays at this wonderful oasis between the mountains and the high desert. Check-in was seamless. The property was clean and well attended to inside and out. Communiation with our host was spot on throughout the stay. The place was amazing and was outfitted with just about everything you could want to make your stay easy and comfortable. THANK YOU!!!

PERFECT

This home exceeded our expectations in every way. The host "Ted" Theo, was the most gracious and welcoming host I have experienced in countless short-term rental experiences. This is a must stay! Even if you are a Las Cruces local, the property is like an out of town oasis. We had a work event here and it accommodated our day time activities and our traveling work mates for overnight with comfort and ease. It is a long dirt road to access the home, but most any vehicle can make the short trek to desert paradise. Thank you again Ted and family for sharing this special place with us. We will book again!

Home away from Home

I recently had the pleasure of staying here that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the beauty and tranquility of the surroundings. This place truly deserves a five-star review for its exceptional features and the wonderful experience it provided. I cannot recommend this house highly enough. It provided a truly memorable experience, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have stayed there. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat in a beautiful setting, with exceptional amenities and wonderful hosts, look no further. This place is an absolute gem, and I guarantee you won't be disappointed. I can't wait to return for another unforgettable stay!

Amazing location for an incredible wedding

Theo is an amazing host and his property is top notch. The pictures don't do the place justice. The 1mi private driveway is a bit rough, but nothing any car can't handle, just be sure anyone arriving the first time at night is careful because there are some places you would not want to go off road. Everything was so comfortable, there was ample supplies for everything we needed and Theo was extremely responsive to any questions we had mid stay. We felt extremely welcome. The amenities were top notch as well. Hiking up a mountain right from the back yard was amazing, even if a little sketchy requiring some scrambling. Highly recommended for a feeling of complete isolation in nature!!! Will probably revisit again in the future!

Enchanted Christmas

My family and I were so fortunate to celebrate Christmas together at this magical place. We had a wonderful time making memories together in the land of enchantment. We had 16 people that stayed at the house full-time, and an additional 16 that drove up during the day and went to their homes to sleep at night. Everyone in our group loved the house and we enjoyed it to the fullest — especially the heated pool and spa and fire pit. What a nice treat, especially in December! Hiking on this sacred land was also enjoyed by many in our group. Everything is as advertised, only better! The owner was wonderful to communicate with and was super responsive. I highly recommend and encourage this overall experience.

A luxury Solitude in the Mountains

I cannot capture the extent of luxury, the vastness and the solitude that this place provides in the middle of Organ mountains. We were group of 6 friends visiting New Mexico from 6 different states. Initially when we booked this place, we thought it might be too big and expensive for one night stay of 6 people. But after living there, we have no regrets, and I will tell you why: 1. It is a combination of solitude and luxury away from the city but still with in the access of the city. 2. The best part of the house was its roof top where there are beds, where you can literally sleep in night under the open sky full of stars. 3. It has many terraces/ balconies where you can sit and relax. 4. There are multiple fire places that add warmth and comfort to your stay. 5. It has big luxury rooms with elegant beds. The decoration of the rooms and the bathrooms cannot be described in words. It just expresses the great esthetic sense and love of the owner for art. 6. It has all sorts of games, bicycles, filtered water etc. If you want to stay 1-2 nights away from the hustle bustle of a city in the heart of the mountains, this is the place. I bet that you would not regret spending this amount. If you go there, try to be there before 5 pm so that you can fully enjoy the sunset in the Organ mountains on the back. Simply! loved this place. Plan to visit it again in future.

Our group of 17 had a great time, start to finish. The setting is more beautiful than the pictures can portray, and everything about the setup of the house showed a lot of thoughtfulness. The host was very responsive, helpful, and gracious from the first communication to the end of our stay.

Fabulous. The pool was the pure water I have ever experienced. The pool area was well designed and we all hung out there a great deal. Very safe and accessible. We watched the sun go down each night from the balcony which was a lovely experience for all of us. Many games played. Top no names notch bedrooms and bath and shower facilities. Comfortable beds. Well stocked kitchen, bathrooms, entire home.
