Puerto de Luna is a riverside hamlet with deep roots and wide-open horizons, where the Pecos River, historic adobes, and old acequias shape daily life. Once the seat of Guadalupe County, the community still reflects its 19th-century heritage, from the plaza to the stone-and-adobe Nuestra Señora del Refugio Church under the care of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe. Weekend plans often point north to Santa Rosa for Route 66 flavor, a dip or dive at the crystal-clear Blue Hole, or cast-and-camp escapes at Santa Rosa Lake State Park.
The landscape does the heavy lifting for recreation: pecan-colored mesas, river bends for paddling, and big-sky nights for stargazing. Anglers and boaters track lake levels and access via the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Santa Rosa Dam and Lake updates, while hikers and birders roam shoreline trails and arroyos. Local traditions run strong, with family farms, seasonal gatherings, and preservation efforts that keep the village’s story front and center.
Families typically attend Santa Rosa Consolidated Schools, and essential services, groceries, and sports fields are a quick drive away. Housing leans toward acreage, adobe homesteads, and river-adjacent parcels—great for buyers seeking space, quiet, and a sense of place.
