Sometimes, the only respite we need from a rushed week is a little peace and quiet. If you feel like escaping the boisterous city life for a few days by taking up a secluded and serene getaway in the woods, you’ll want to book a stay at this remote cabin in northern New Mexico.
Located over an hour northeast of Albuquerque is the sprawling Pecos Wilderness, home to this charming cabin.
Pines tower overhead, neighbors are few and far between, and the mountain air is refreshingly cool. A stay here feels like the ideal retreat for finding calmness in a chaotic world.
The two-bedroom cabin models a rustic charm both inside and out.
Step inside and you'll be greeted by unfinished wood accents and a rugged stone fireplace in the spacious living area. This room also leads to a stocked kitchen where you can brew your morning coffee or prepare a rustic dinner.

The cabin has two bedrooms that feel modest and cozy for a good night's sleep.
The cabin does not have Internet access and cellphone coverage is so spotty, you might as well shut off your phone for the duration of your stay. Relax and unwind by the living room's fireplace with that unfinished knitting project or swing on the porch with a good book.
At night, you can huddle up by the fire pit with some marshmallows or hot dogs and enjoy that chilly mountain air.
The cabin can accommodate up to 6 guests and booking prices start at $135 per night. For additional information about the cabin’s amenities or to book a stay, visit Airbnb.
If you’re looking for another secluded stay with some spectacular historical roots, you’ll want to try booking a stay in New Mexico’s very first Earthship. Built in 1979, this particular building spawned a movement in Taos for other Earthships. Read more in Newly Refurbished, You Can Spend A Night In New Mexico’s Very First Earthship.
