Between mountain
and desert.

High above Alamogordo at 6,700 feet, Inn the Sky sits suspended between the cool pine forests of the Sacramento Mountains and the vast desert of the Tularosa Basin.

The experience is not primarily the house. It's the perspective the house gives you. Mountain morning. White Sands afternoon.

The views from this guest house are absolutely breathtaking! Watching the sunset over White Sands while sitting by the fire pit was the highlight of our trip. The hundreds of hummingbirds during the day were magical.

Spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and incredibly peaceful. The king bed was super comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Easy drive to Cloudcroft and White Sands. We will definitely be back!

Inn the Sky is a hidden gem in New Mexico. The mountaintop peace and panoramic vistas exceeded all expectations. Having our morning coffee on the patio with the hummingbirds was unforgettable.

Plan a Day at White Sands

Hundreds of tiny visitors.

Some mornings arrive with wings. The property is renowned for its hummingbird haven. During the season, hundreds of hummingbirds visit throughout the day, darting around the viewing balcony while you enjoy your morning coffee in the crisp mountain air.

Or don't.

Now flip back outside. Cloudcroft is just 15 minutes up the mountain for alpine village shops, bakeries, and high-altitude hiking trails.

White Sands National Park is a scenic 50-minute drive down into the basin. Oliver Lee State Park, Alamogordo, and the Lincoln National Forest offer endless day trips before returning home to the quiet mountain heights.

When the sun goes down,
stay outside.

Stay out after the sun does. Relax by the wood-burning fire pit in Adirondack chairs under pitch-black New Mexico skies filled with countless stars.

No city noise. No crowds. Just the crackle of cedar firewood, cool mountain air, and absolute quiet.
