About Deer Canyon Preserve:
The Deer Canyon Preserve is set on the western edge of Chupadera Mesa and includes parts of the mesas western slope. The area is dominated by pion-juniper woodland with areas of open grassland. The Property includes habitat for a variety of mammalian species including elk, mule deer, black bear, and mountain lion, in addition to golden eagle, turkey and other species of wildlife. It is also valuable habitat for a wide array of other native birds species. The New Mexico Land Conservancy holds an easement over an adjacent approximately 1,800 acre property on top of Chupadera Mesa called Goat Canyon. Together these conserved lands provide a large tract of open space and wildlife habitat in an area facing development pressure. The properties are used by nearby residents as scenic open space and for passive recreation, and are visible from Highway 55, The Salt Mission Trail, and Highway 60.
Things To Know:
DCP has a planning & building commission which oversees the designs for estates within the Preserve in an effort to maintain a certain uniformity and eco-friendly design among the homes in the area. For reference, think 'Santa Fe style.'. This being said, the covenants that govern this area are very reasonable and allow for additional structures such as studios, guest houses and barns.
DCP is RV friendly but places a ten day restriction on the length of time you can live in one while enjoying the Preserve.
Albuquerque is less than an hour's drive from DCP and Santa Fe and Ruidoso are both within an hour and a half, making it easy to enjoy the nightlife, concerts, sporting events, museums and casinos common throughout these major cities. Even better? Great skiing is only an hour away among the slopes of Ski Aapache!
