About the host
Hosted by Israel
Our little RV has a guest book. I feel it is our best feature. So many stories of people visiting Roswell from all over the United States, and the world. Every story is unique. No matter how long we host that feeling of meeting a new friend never gets old.
Why they chose this property
This ranch is really the best of both worlds. 15 minutes to Roswell where you can get anything you need. Roswell is home to fun UFO history, amazing New Mexican food, and fun.
What makes this property unique
The sky is unblemished by light pollution. If you are a UFO hunter, Star gazer, or just love to sit in the awe of the New Mexico sky, this is the place. Also your furry companion can stay with you. This is nature so there are risk of running into wild, and or dangerous animals so please keep this in mind.
