Rancho Buganvilias RV Resort

This is a gorgeous location with access to a virgin flat, 8 mile beach in front. Rancho Buganvilias RV Resort has all the facilities of any good RV park. Plus they have cell service and Internet. It is operated by Sandy and Cynthia who will make you feel right at home. Their prices are reasonable and they have a “quiet time” between 10 PM and 8 AM when generators must be turned off. That is welcome news for many. Pets are, of course, welcome if well-behaved. That should be said for humans too.

Xilitla Hotels San Luis Potosi

Xilitla Hotels – Lodging in this eerie hamlet in the cloud forest run the gamut. Some are artsy and appeal to the university art professors and artistic people from the USA and San Miguel de Allende – who can afford them. Others are just hotels and some are nice little places run by good people with grand spirits.

Zacatecas State, Hot Springs, Archeology, Nature

Alas, I join the crowd in not recommending travel to northern Zacatecas in 2022, particularly Fresnillo. Driving from Saltillo to Zacatecas city is okay, just don’t linger. Zacatecas city and the attractions to the south are fine.

Zacatecas The Corazón of Mexico

Zacatecas is one of the most overlooked of Mexico’s firmament of colonial jewels. If you want to feel the heart of Mexico and its people, spend a few days in Zacatecas. The whole town is wrapped in a baby blanket of pink stone, carved by long gone to Heaven stonemason craftsmen. The city is recognized as a United Nations World Heritage site.
