D.H. Lawrence Cabin: Hot Tub, Sauna & Alpacas

D.H. Lawrence found endless inspiration in the vast skies and rugged beauty of Northern New Mexico. Nearly a century later, the night skies remain just as extraordinary, offering a glimpse into the landscape that captivated the celebrated writer. This charming 325 sq ft studio occupies one half of a historic duplex and features a comfortable queen bed, a well-equipped kitchen, and a full bathroom. A traditional potbelly wood stove, gas stove, and heat pump keep the cabin cozy through the cooler months. Spend quiet evenings beside the fire, prepare a farm-fresh dinner, or soak beneath a canopy of stars in one of the nearby hot tubs. A small porch overlooking the flower garden is a lovely place for morning coffee, birdsong, and the gentle rhythm of farm life. Two shared hot tubs and an infrared sauna are just steps away. Nestled on 40 acres in the beautiful San Cristobal Valley, at the edge of the Columbine-Hondo Wilderness, Taos Goji is an organic goji berry farm and eco-lodge where history, nature, and the simple pleasures of farm life come together. Wander through the old apple orchard, explore the gardens, relax in a hammock, or spend time with our friendly farm animals. Guests are welcome to enjoy the shared hot tubs and saunas, outdoor grill, playground, and spacious open-air barn, a favorite gathering place for sunset dinners beneath the wide New Mexico sky. Seasonal vegetables and fresh farm eggs are available when the farm is producing.  Surrounded by mountains, open skies, and extraordinary natural beauty, the farm feels wonderfully removed from the everyday, yet the town of Taos is just a 15 minute scenic drive away. Taos Ski Valley and Red River are both approximately 20 miles from the property, offering easy access to skiing, hiking, and year-round outdoor adventures. Good to know: Life here moves at a slower pace. Nights are intentionally quiet and beautifully dark, making for exceptional stargazing. Cell service is limited in the valley, and Wi-Fi may occasionally be interrupted during storms. The fire pit may only be used with prior management approval. HOUSE RULES Pet Policy We love dogs!
