Teal Cottage (Truth or Consequences) - Hot Springs in New Mexico

A vacation rental completely hidden in an alley.

The geothermal water was poured into a metal trough.

Perfect Hideaway

All accommodations at Mother Ship Yoga Lounge & Hot Springs, a yoga retreat center, can be booked through Airbnb.

Of the five accommodation options, two are cottages: “Teal Cottage” and “Casa Mañana.”

Teal Cottage, where I stayed this time, was located on a backstreet that you wouldn't stumble upon while walking around town.

It is located just behind Blackstone Hotsprings, and the alley in front of it was unpaved.

Entering the secluded grounds surrounded by tall metal panels, a different world spread out.

The guest house consisted of one bedroom with a queen-size bed and a living room with a sofa bed.

Fully equipped kitchen with refrigerator, stove, oven, cooking utensils, and tableware.

Thorough Simplicity

The geothermal water is drawn outdoors.

Spacious patio covered by a roof.

The tub was installed in a staircase-like area.

There was no roof where the tub was.

The tub was a large metal trough.

An outdoor shower was also installed near the tub.

The clear, colorless, odorless, tasteless water was 108 degrees F.

Alpaca

It's bubbling.

The momentum is incredible.

Capybara

Due to the overwhelming amount of water, I was able to get the water fed in a surprisingly short time.

The stone garden was devoid of any plants or even decoration, and was surrounded only by metal plates.

The production was brilliant in its thoroughness of simplicity, which gave it a sense of spirituality.
