QUEEN, NEW MEXICO

GUADALUPE MOUNTAIN RECREATIONAL SUBDIVISION

      Queen is that special place still left in this world where you can go to get away from it all.  Beautiful weather nearly all the time.  Cooler in the summer and winters are generally mild.  Set in the mountains and pinon/juniper with some tall Ponderosa pines, this is a wonderful place to spend your extra time.  Queen is an unincorporated village that has lots of history.  Homesteaders founded this area in the early 1890's.  An old chimney is all that is left of the original store and post office.  But Queen revived as an community in 1985 when the first lots were sold and the Queen Store & RV Park was established. 

       This is hiking, caving, exploring, hunting, ATV's, horseback riding heaven with trails everywhere.  If you are an active outdoors person and long for expansive views of beautiful country with wonderful weather, this is the area for you.  Whether you are retiring or just want a nice place to spend your weekends and vacations, Queen should be an option you explore.  The Lincoln National Forest surrounds the Queen area.  The Guadalupe National Park is also within 20 minutes of Queen.  Elk, deer, havalina, turkey, small game animals and birds can be seen whenever you are out and about.  Some of the most wild and beautiful limestone caves are located in this area.  They are part of the same formations and geology of the famous Carlsbad Caverns National Park.  Most can be accessed by obtaining a permit from the Forest Service.  Rock repelling areas are just about everywhere.

       The area is served by  Queen Cafe and RV Park, home of the world famous green chili Mountain Man burger.  And there is Tip's Convenience store that has just about anything you could ever want.  Locals gather on Sunday at Tip's for a meal of smoked BBQ or some other specialty of the week.  There is also a county fire station for local home protection and they coordinate with the Forest Service on wild fires and rescues.

       Whether you are  the sit-on-the-porch-and-rock type or the type that likes to be "out there", and you enjoy beautiful scenery that fills your soul, then please check these nice listings out and come see.
