About this property

Creative Art of Living Retreat

We have off grid cozy space's that can be your meditation retreat or a family adventure high up by hiking trailheads and beautiful scenery all around. Using less is better and recycling materials to create a small village like atmosphere. We have a main straw bale round structure which is used for communal space. Laundry, shower and main communal meal is served.

Breakfast of fresh eggs and greens with homemade muffins and fruits are included in the stay. From 9am to 11am, any leftovers for late comers.
Each space has a simple kitchen which is used for your other meals and snacks. Refrigerator stove top, and in one building a microwave. Our Earthship is on solar, so we use its lights and other things sparingly. A woodstove is in each space.

In or around our outhouses are located conveniently. We utilize 'Humanure' practices for our ongoing gardening projects. Simply we all get to experience an outhouse situation and how it can work efficiently.
If you are seeking an experience away from home which may include a vast array of activities, workshops and spiritual centers, as well as the beauty of hiking high in the Sangre de Cristo mountains, hot springs and much more! You will also have an opportunity to spend time with us on our small family farm which consists of myself, a dog, three cats and 19 hens. Greenhouse made from tires, cans and glass bottles, and a couple of other structures for gathering and staying.

The Earth Ship which is also an Art Studio & Gallery, is full of local Artists and my own creations for your Souvenir or Gift. That space is a sanctuary with a space to sleep up to six people, with roll out comfy futons and pillows and two full sizes, medium to firm memory mattress. It is an Art Studio however being and Earthship it is spacious and cozy. We are working on an Atrium Passive Solar shower at that spot, but until it is completed you will be using the main house shower. We are also on a 'Gray Water' system so five-minute showers are required to use it. If you want a longer soak there are four Hot Springs within a half hour to hour radius.

We are doing our best here to keep the vibe low key and friendly, partying or creating disturbances for myself, other guests or anyone who is here at that time, it will not be tolerated. This is for people who would like to In-Joy time away in nature and go exploring. It is a very big step up from tent camping, however we do have a few very lovely tent spots to book as well if you rather that accommodation. Be prepared for cool nights even in the Summer months as we are about 9k high. Overlooking the San Luis Valley floor, so it can get chilly!

I also suggest to everyone who comes from lower altitudes to prepare your cells to expand, which means drink lots of green chlorophyl or Nettles a few weeks before arriving here to acclimate your blood to oxygenate you well.

With Many Blessings to you and yours,
Zuki
