    Burnt Well, a working cattle and sheep ranch, take a few guests on the side to supplement their ranching income. Guest capacity is small enabling us to tailor your stay to your wishes, whether you are an avid rider who wants to participate in actual ranch work, you are a beginner and just want to work on your riding skills, or anything in-between. When you're here, "YOU" are the focus!

    A wonderful experience for my daughter
    My 11 year old daughter and I made our second visit to Burning Well this year because we enjoyed it so much last year and because the week spent there had been so good for Izzy's riding skills and confidence. It was the same again this year - she was able to do so much more…

    A Rancher's Apprentice
    Burnt Well is not your typical vacation. It is an unparalleled opportunity to live on a working cattle ranch and be part of a team. I have always wanted to stay on a ranch. I never knew I would get the chance to do so much more than ride! And yes, ride you will. It's the best…

    Cattle drive was a great experience!
    The Chesser family hospitality is unmatched. Wonderful people! The cattle drive is a great opportunity to participate in an authentic US southwestern cattle drive experience. This is no dude-ranch, but a working cattle ranch run by the Chesser family. That's what I was looking…

    Regulator Ride
    This was my second trip to the ranch, so obviously I enjoyed it the first time. All but one of the guests on this ride was a repeat guest. Kim and Patricia Chesser are some of the nicest people one could ever meet. They not only provide the services that are necessary for a…

    Incredible one-of-a-kind family adventure
    We have been home, for a few weeks, from our week long family trip to Burnt Well and our family is still talking about it! Our two sons (23 and 19) joined us in New Mexico. Each one of us had an amazing time! We've gone on other family vacations to other locations; however,…

    Hi, we're from the UK. This looks like a great holiday but could you tell me if we need to have riding experience or can we come as beginners ?
    Hi Rachel, No, you do not need to have riding experience to come to Burnt Well. We have had many beginners and have a wide variety of horses for different riding levels. We would love to have you as our guests! Thank you for reaching out! Kim & Patricia Chesser Burnt Well Guest Ranch Where we're committed to the quality of your stay...

    "Bunk beds in the bunkhouse, and tee-pees with bedrolls on the cattle drive."
    "Come a day or two early to get use to the altitude. It also helps in case of transportation delays."
    "stay in the bunkhouse if you have 2-4 guests"
    "The Bunk House worked perfectly for me. They have a lovely Casita for couples too."
    "I think the Casita with its full kitchen is a good idea if you think you want to supplement your diet with some of your own home cooking. However, the bunkhouse was very comfortable and had some amenities such as a pool table."
