Serene 70s Retreat Near the San Antonio Hot Springs

A Retro Mountain Escape Like No Other

Your Perfect Getaway in the Jemez Mountains
Looking for a spot that’s equal parts chill and adventurous? Welcome to your groovy cabin getaway, just 60 miles north of Albuquerque. Set on 4.5 acres bordering the Santa Fe National Forest, this 1973 retreat is the ultimate hideaway. And it’s not just about the location—this cabin is a throwback to a time when life was simpler and slower.

Nearby adventures include:

Soaking in the natural San Antonio Hot Springs
Exploring Valles Caldera National Preserve
Enjoying quiet moments at Fenton Lake State Park
Whether you’re craving relaxation or seeking adventure, this retreat strikes the perfect balance.

Adventure & Relaxation in One Place
Nestled in the heart of the Jemez Mountains, the Serene 70s Retreat is the ideal spot to disconnect and get back to what matters—nature, creativity, and maybe even a little peace and quiet.

Lounge in hammocks beneath a sky that feels like it goes on forever
Curl up by the vintage fireplace
Gather around the fire pit for starry nights and marshmallow toasts
Wake up to fresh mountain air and explore miles of trails
And that’s just the beginning. From wildlife sightings to hot spring soaks, every moment here is a little slice of heaven.

Stay A While—You’ll Thank Yourself Later
There’s no reason to rush—this cabin was made for lingering. Whether you’re here for a weekend or want to take the time to truly unwind, you’ll quickly realize that this place has a rhythm all its own.

Your days could look like this:

Mornings with a cup of coffee on the deck, taking in those mountain views
Afternoons filled with hiking, exploring waterfalls, or discovering hidden hot springs
Evenings spent by the fire, stargazing, or chatting around the fire pit
So, why not make it a week? Or longer? Reach out to inquire about our monthly rates—because when you’re here, time really does slow down.

Work Remotely in Nature’s Peace
Why work from a cramped office when you could do it with a view of the Jemez Mountains? Get away from the noise and enjoy blazing-fast Starlink internet while you take calls, send emails, or write that novel.

Set up your mobile outdoor desk—whether it’s on the deck, under the trees, or in a sun-soaked clearing
Zoom meetings with the mountains as your backdrop—just imagine the envy from your colleagues
Unleash your creativity in total solitude, surrounded by the quiet hum of nature
Thinking long-term? Ask us about monthly rates, and make this mountain paradise your office for a while.

Perfect For
This is the retreat for those who appreciate good vibes, nature, and time to recharge.

Remote workers and digital nomads craving peace and productivity

Entrepreneurs and students looking for a change of scenery to focus

Cozy cabin with enough amenities to make your trip easy but to feel like you’re getting away from daily life. The hosts were very helpful before and during our stay. Would definitely take my family back to enjoy the nature around and on the property

Sulphur Springs Weekend

This place is amazing! Not to far from Albuquerque. A perfect place to enjoy nature for the weekend. Peaceful location too... Cabin has a full kitchen set up to make them homemade meals. Full bathroom was a nice thing to have up there too. Pet friendly was a plus!! We are definitely going back to this place in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Sean Smith

Host profile image
Welcome from the colorful Jemez Mountains of New Mexico! My wife and I have a love for aviation, nature, and the kind of off-the-beaten-path adventure that leads to unforgettable memories. Our aviation backgrounds have taught us the importance of precision and reliability, which we carry over into hosting—we want every guest to feel completely cared for.

We’ve traveled the world, but nothing compares to the magic we’ve found right here in New Mexico. Hosting allows us to share a slice of that magic with fellow travelers—people who crave fresh air, starry skies, and a cozy space to reconnect with themselves and nature.

We’re proud to offer the Serene 70s Retreat, a place where you can unplug, get inspired, and maybe even rediscover your sense of wonder. Whether you're soaking in nearby hot springs or just lounging in a hammock under pine trees, we hope our cabin feels like a breath of fresh mountain air.

Why they chose this property

The Jemez Mountains are one of New Mexico’s best-kept secrets—and we’re lucky to call them home. We fell in love with this area for its peacefulness, rugged beauty, and the incredible variety of outdoor adventures right at your doorstep.

Our cabin sits on 4.5 private acres that border the Santa Fe National Forest, offering immediate access to trails, wildlife, and that hard-to-find sense of true seclusion. Yet, you're still just 60 miles from Albuquerque. Whether you’re heading to the San Antonio Hot Springs, exploring Valles Caldera, or fishing at Fenton Lake, every corner of this neighborhood has something special to offer.

It’s the kind of place where mornings start with deer sightings and mountain air, and nights end under an ocean of stars. We chose this neighborhood because it invites you to slow down, stay longer, and live a little differently.

What makes this property unique

The Serene 70s Retreat isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience rooted in nostalgia, nature, and creativity. Built in 1973, the cabin is a retro-inspired time capsule with cozy comforts, modern amenities, and a whole lot of soul. It’s surrounded by towering trees, visited often by local wildlife, and set far enough from the noise to let you truly relax.

Whether you're curling up by the vintage fireplace, lounging in hammocks, or taking a Zoom call with the Jemez Mountains as your backdrop (thanks, Starlink), our retreat is designed for both rest and inspiration. From the fire pit to the forest trails, every feature here encourages you to disconnect from the chaos and reconnect with what matters.

It’s perfect for remote workers, creatives, solo travelers, small families, and anyone who appreciates a slower rhythm. This isn’t just a mountain cabin—it’s a sanctuary, a creative haven, and a little slice of retro heaven in the woods.
