with hookups but it's $20 a night. It has a great old hotel, cabins, and a huge swimming pool. The mineral pools - iron, soda, and arsenic run from lukewarm to very hot. My favorite thing to do at Ojo is cover myself in mud (mud buckets) and sunbathe. The river runs thru the property and there is a restaurant and spa - all in a rural setting.
