    If you're looking for something family and budget friendly, this is the place. They host great events all year long and there is plenty of places for little ones to explore. As a teacher, I appreciate the educational aspect of this place as well. The staff is always kind and knowledgeable. We are frequent visitors.

    I've been here for a couple of festivals and the grounds are nice with clean restrooms, but the festivals themselves are usually disappointing. Admission is often higher than the event is worth.

    Today we are at the Santa Fe Harvest Festival. There were only about 10 artisan booths mostly selling the same stuff at fairly high prices. It's nice stuff though.

    The activities are entirely for children. So annoying. They wouldn't let me make a corn husk doll. 😣 So basically we drove 90 minutes to stand around with our fingers in our noses.

    This is a working village and is awesome! You really get to see how people lived I the 1800's. It's a great little walk. I would love to go back for the festival's they have!

    Was here for 2017 Renaissance festival. Very nice event. There was a little bit for all ages. I enjoyed the heavy weapons battles the most. Great facility which adds to the ambiance to the event.

    I don't think the museum coordinators could have put more thought and care into the facility. The grounds are fabulous and each piece of history and respective property tells such an incredible story, it's just mind blowing. To think people tilled the land in such primitive times of technology cannot be fathomed. A special piece of the experience are the staff , they all dress to era and everyone is so highly educated in their specific niche of history, I couldn't help but hang on their every syllable. I also got to learn abbot about the Pacheco involvement- my family name. I won't give it away, but it has to do with the property adjacent to where a miraculous mill is located and still working!! Pay a visit and learn the beautiful New Mexican history here.

    it's a living history museum. They have buildings set up tho show what life was like in different eras. Some days there are volunteers to demonstrate different skills. They have a farm where they plant the crops that would have been grown. Its a large place, wear comfortable shoes.

    Wine festival is awesome. Going to go back tomorrow. The history behind the ranch is amazing. The volunteers are absolutely wonderful dressed in period clothing doing chores. They will put you to work carding wool or spinning yarn while bread bakes in horno ovens. General store, school house, mountain village, blacksmiths, carpenter, hide tannery, sorghum press and two types of mills that actually work.

    Lovely place to visit. Lots of history. We were there for the Lavender Festival. Many vendors with wonderful products made with Lavender. Music and great food.

    We visited Rancho de las Golondrinas during their Herb and Lavender festival yesterday. There were lots of vendors selling goods made with lavender, including soaps, honey, tea, and more. The sandwiches and salads we ordered onsite from "two sprout farm" were FANTASTIC. It was very interesting walking around and seeing the historical buildings and how people used to live. Reenactors showed and explained to us how they used looms. It was especially cool to see the blacksmith making nails, and he let kids keep them nails he made as souvenirs. We didn't make it to the back half of the property (because we did a big hike in the morning), but if I lived in New Mexico, I would definitely visit again!
