Casa Redondo Ranch Airport is your opportunity to enjoy quiet, private, and secure county living in southeastern New Mexico, USA. This 200 acre property is located in Eddy County, New Mexico, east of the Pecos River, between Carlsbad and Artesia.

The entire property is fenced, with only one locked gate to control access. Your only uninvited visitor will be the electric meter reader who visits once a month on the 27th or 28th day. In 25 years of living out here there have been only 3 uninvited people who came on foot seeking help because they were lost or stuck in the desert.

If you are looking for privacy, seclusion and security, you will feel right at  home here. It's perfect for someone who might want to teach flying or enjoy the benefits of a private airport. It's also a gardener's dream, with hundreds of feet of flower beds and a fenced vegetable garden. Keep your horses in the 100' x 100' cross fenced pen with a central water trough (ok, it's an old bathtub), and two weather shelters.

Back yard

Wildlife enthusiasts or hunters will find a huge variety of wildlife, many of them right in the yard. Mule deer, pronghorns, a wide variety of game and song birds, as well as the usual crew of desert dwellers can all be seen right from the back porch. New Mexico is famous for it's spectacular sunrises and sunsets, which you can view while soaking in your hot tub on the porch.
