Along with the unique fishing opportunities on this property, Chama offers many other attractions such as the historic Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad steam engine train, hunting, snowmobiling, skiing (Wolf Creek), hiking, the Edward Sargent Wildlife Management area, and the Humphries/Rio Chama Wildlife Management areas owned by the NM State Game Commission, water skiing, sailing, and more fishing can be found 20 minutes south of the property at Heron and El Vado Lakes. The property is within two hours of Santa Fes Downtown Plaza and 50 minutes to the Pagosa Springs Airport. American and United Airlines fly into Santa Fe.
