Home To Spectacular Natural Views, Enjoy A Quaint Mountain Getaway In Eagle Nest, New Mexico
Looking for an escape this weekend? How does a tiny, rustic town surrounded by natural beauty sound to you? If those sound ideal, then you’ll want to pay a visit to Eagle Nest. Located in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains of northern New Mexico, this little village has a population that barely reaches 300. Combine that with its fairly isolated location and a laidback atmosphere, and this will be a destination you’ll visit again and again.
