"Vermejo, a Ted Turner Reserve, is spread out over 550,000 acres of land. The property is an outdoor adventurer's dream, with on-site activities including hiking, archery, mountain biking, geocaching, fishing, horseback riding, and more. The vast reserve offers many types of guest accommodations — including a rustic-chic fishing lodge, luxurious Gatsby-era mansion, and private stone cottages. “I felt like my family had our own private national park,” one T+L reader said. “Bison up close, herds of elk moving through the property, deer on the lawn every morning at dawn, just special.” The resort’s conservation efforts are also notable: T+L previously reported that they have “successfully documented more than 1,000 native plant species, leading to the reintroduction of native wildlife [in the area].”" - Travel + Leisure Editors
