From our place there is easy access to river rafting on the Rio Grande, wineries, Sipapu Ski resort, hiking in National forest and numerous art galleries. Dixon is a rural town and the pace of life is very different from city life, you will have to drive a long way for big box stores. Enjoy produce from our many local organic farms during farmer's market season June-October. The Dixon Co-op offers local produce and products year round, as a wonderful place to sample the flavors of northern NM. Dixon has a great New Mexican restaurant, Zuly's, and easy access to a brewery in Rinconada. Espanola and Taos are located about 30 minutes away, respectively. Ojo caliente is 45 minutes drive and Santa fe is one hour away. We are 1/2 mile from the center of Dixon which has a co-op grocery store, library, NMRTD bus stop, post office and community center. There is an airport shuttle from albuquerque (Twin Hearts) that drops passengers in Embudo, we can arrange a pick-up if necessary. Dixon is a very walkable community but if you want to explore northern NM you will need a vehicle. The farmhouse is well equipped to meet the needs of most people. The steps to the upstairs may not be suitable for all mobility levels, and we have a baby gate available for those who plan to sleep with young children upstairs. The clawfoot tub requires a large step to enter; though a grab rail is provided. The house has a natural gas enamel stove as the main sources of heat. Cell phone reception in Dixon may depend greatly on what carrier you have, some are have great reception, others not so much. This is a remodeled machine-shed; it is nicely finished but it is occasionally host to a mouse, beetle, or other small creature. We do our best to keep nature at bay; but we can't always ensure that you will not encounter any of them.
