Hotel Luna Mystica

Top choice in Taos


Vintage Airstreams and RVs come with a view – a really big view – at this new trailer park that's perched between the Sangre de Cristos mountains and the Rio Grand Gorge on the Taos mesa about 8 miles northwest of downtown. Each snazzy trailer has its own bathroom and kitchen, plus a firepit. All but the hostel-style bunkhouse include showers.

There's a shower house beside the bunkhouse, which does have a half-bath inside. Taos Mesa Brewing is just across the dirt road, and things can get loud if there's live music there on weekends. Pet fee is $20 per night.
