Art City - Tucumcari, New Mexico

We tent camped one night, as a stop over on a roadtrip. What a treat this place was! The tent pad was level and solid, and the tent locations were private enough but also close enough to the kitchen and bathrooms. Our location had a great picnic table.

The highlight of course are the outdoor sculptures, which are lit up at night. They are so cool! I will definitely be stopping here again. Tucumcari is lucky to have such an excellent, quirky outdoor sculpture park.

Magical places attract magical people. This place is so special and though it was our first time visiting, it absolutely will not be the last. My friend and I went for the lunar eclipse followed by the full moon the next night. We showed up right before 7pm and had a warm welcoming with the spa ready to go. Our first two nights happened to be a crazy out of character wind storm, but even that didn't take away from how awesome our experience was. Our hosts were easy to find if we ever needed anything while still giving us space. They were so thoughtful and offered us upgrades because of the wind storm- though we were perfectly happy doing car camping, they genuinely wanted to make sure everyone is having the best experience possible. Every other visitor we chatted with was kind and chill as well. Good energy all around. THE ART!!! So amazing and inspiring. THE LAND!!! So calm and grounding and beautiful. THE SPA!!! Perfection. I could go on and on- even the bathrooms are art! Our last day we left just before sunset and had some car issues and ended up having to come back and stay another night. Our hosts went above and beyond to set us up in one of the trailers super last minute- can't say enough wonderful things about these guys. Art City is a must. We can't wait to go back.

If you like contemporary art, this place is a wonderful and unique experience. Wandering through this large art park by day and by night, the pieces present different perspectives -- it's fun and thought-provoking. Art City is a fascinating concept. Don't hesitate -- just go!

It was a fun experience walking through this display at night. It took us a little over an hour to see it all. The stars were so bright, the paths led us to each exhibit, the staff was friendly. Great work to all the artists involved! Be careful using the stairs at the wooden structure because there is no rail. There is a restroom. Thank you for the experience

Art City is truly a one-of-a-kind experience! The hosts were incredibly kind, and the art throughout the property was simply breathtaking. It's evident that a lot of thought and care went into every detail of the facilities, right down to the bathrooms, which perfectly blend form and function.
The communal areas, including the kitchen, showers, sauna, and hot tub, were all beautifully designed. The open-air shower, in particular, was a blissful experience. The entire property is pristine and meticulously maintained.
As someone who usually boondocks, having access to electricity felt like a real luxury. It's wonderful that a place like this offers both water and shore power.
If you’re driving through New Mexico, this is a must see! Be sure to give yourself a couple of nights to properly experience all of the wonders this special place has to offer.

The art looks better here than at Burning Man. A walk around Art City felt like visiting old friends. I especially enjoyed revisiting the Paradisium grove, now nestled amongst Cottonwoods, near a creek. It offered me a sense of respite & reflection I never got on playa. Another piece that is dear to me is ‘Facing the Fearbeast’ by the late Tigre. I hope they eventually connect the audio…it is a powerful interaction with our human struggles of fear/doubt/trauma. The trails take you wandering through so much BIG community art…the kind that you get to climb & experience & then go home inspired! Loved the lighting in the evening. Very tasteful. I slept in one of the trailers overnight & it was the BEST! I’m talking quality memory foam mattress, new thick down comforter to withstand the December night, and LINEN sheets. Now that’s how you TREAT a guest. I’m obsessed with the outdoor kitchen, fire pit, and the Ofuro tub. The dogs that have discovered Art City & decided to call it home are the best ambassadors. Buddy & New Dog (pronounced N-OOO-DLE). New dog is so ripped, he’s inspired me to work out more and Buddy is such a sweetheart. Big shout out to Benino…he’s also the best! It's off the beaten path, but the best things usually are.
