The western end of Rancho de Abiquiu consists of three separately deeded lots that together span over 59 acres and border the Chama River to the south. This property is steeped in the history of the American West. In the early 1890s, before Utah achieved statehood, Mormon families traveled through the American Southwest, many eventually settling in Mexico where they now thrive as ranchers and farmers. Among their ventures was the construction of The Historic Ruth House on Rancho de Abiquiu by two brothers. This distinctive residence, now featuring three bedrooms, an office, and three bathrooms, exudes historical charm. The property also boasts extensive tillable land with plentiful surface water rights, creating a lush, verdant oasis. Additionally, the west end of the property includes two Quonset huts: one for accommodating large recreational vehicles and the other serving as a workshop, woodshop, and extra storage space.
