New Mexico Hot Springs for Sale - Pool at Night

Unique New Mexico Airbnb Property


The Good Life Lab Natural Hot Spring & PV Solar

This unique income-generating property is the subject of the award-winning book, The Good Life Lab: Radical Experiments in Hands-On Living written by Wendy Tremayne which won the Nautilus major book award for sustainability and lifestyle in 2014.

The property is perfect for someone who wishes to have a natural hot spring of their very own, and/or dreams of integrating their work into their lifestyle. The property is ripe for further development into a fully commercial venture with additional overnight stays and hot spring tubs.

In its current form, it has hosted almost 1000 Airbnb guests (5 start super host), been the venue for countless lively events such as camping events, think tanks, concerts, dance parties, and contemplative retreats. With a large fire pit and patio in the center of the compound, two porches for socializing, and a hot spring, it’s quite naturally a hosting space.

Fully private and walled in, this quiet property is ideal for yoga and contemplative retreats. Life is a big part of this property, canopies of shade are found everywhere and the trees and plants are mostly food and medicine providing. The Good Life Lab is located in the heart of the commercial hot bath house district 1.5 blocks from the town’s commercial walking center.
