Welcome to the Rocky Mountains

There’s nothing more exciting than discovering a new, under-the-radar place to stay. Cue Vermejo Park Ranch. Sprawling across nearly 600,000 acres of majestic terrain in northern New Mexico and southern Colorado, on the edge of the Rocky Mountains, Vermejo is the size of Zion, Canyonlands and Redwood National Parks combined. Owned by conservationist Ted Turner, Vermejo offers rich history and luxurious accommodations that range from Casa Grande (Ted Turner’s former residence) to Costilla Lodge in the high country. Year-round, Near or Far’s clients can ride, hike, bike, fish and shoot while catching sight of abundant wildlife such as bison, bald eagles and elk. This is an opportunity to take some much-needed time to reconnect with nature and pamper yourself in an authentic yet luxurious setting.
