Hacienda Vargas is the only bed and breakfast Inn along the historic El Camino Real. Nestled in the Rio Grande Valley in the village of Algodones. It continues to greet travelers and pilgrims as it has since the 17th Century. Algodones was originally founded as a military garrison to provide protection for the merchant wagon trains traveling between Santa Fe and Chihuahua, Mexico. As late as the 19th Century it was the site of a military supply depot. No doubt, one of the reasons General Kearney and the Army of the West occupied it in 1846.
The sights, sounds, and scents of New Mexico are to be found at Hacienda Vargas Bed and Breakfast Inn. For example, in the past the site was used both as a stagecoach stop and a train station. Today, the sound of the passing train establishes a unique and special link to the 19th Century; directly enhancing the New Mexico experience!
