Fodor's Expert Review Bear Creek Motel & Cabins

88 Main St. (NM 15), Pinos Altos, New Mexico, 88053, USA Fodor's Choice

A ponderosa pine forest surrounds the silvered wood-and-stone, two-story cabins, half of which have kitchens with cookware, and fireplaces. Rustic hand-hewn railings adorn the Adirondack-chair bedecked porches, which have you sitting in the treetops—eye-level with all manner of birds and other wildlife. Gold panning, hiking, and fishing are among the popular activities at this Pinos Altos mountain getaway.

PROS

  • just 7 miles north of Silver City, but appealingly remote
  • en route to Gila Cliff Dwellings
  • plenty of nearby activities

CONS

  • dining choices nearby are limited
