Since 1973, Fort Burgwin has been an educational center of Southern Methodist University. Its beautiful setting in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains--surrounded by the Carson National Forest --provides a unique backdrop for the enrichment of body, mind and spirit. The SMU-in-Taos campus provides a unique backdrop for your group to meet and experience engaging activities in a stunning natural environment that goes far beyond the usual meeting locale. We take pride in accommodating each group with the kind of personal care and attention you can only find on a small private campus like ours.
