THE SETTING WAS NICE HOWEVER, NOT GETTING OUR SECURITY BACK HAS REALLY CLOUDED OUR EXPERIENCE. SHE ALSO HAD ADVERTISED 3 BEDROOMS, HOWEVER ONE OF THE MATTRESSES IS AN INFLATABLE MATTRESS AND I WOULD NOT CALL AN ACCEPTABLE BEDROOM, SO IT IS MORE LIKE A 2 BEDROOM HOUSE. SHE ALSO SAID THAT THE PLACE WAS 15 MINUTES FROM THE CENTER SQUARE, HOWEVER IT WAS MORE LIKE 25 MINUTES AND MORE IN RUSH HOUR. IT IS PRETTY MUCH AT THE VERY OUTER EDGE OF TOWN. I WOULD NOT RECCOMMEND STAYING THERE CONSIDERING THIS ROYAL RUN AROUND SHE HAS GIVEN US CONCERNING A SECURITY DEPOSIT THAT IS DUE BACK TO US... SO BEWARE... DO NOT PAY HER A SECURITY DEPOSIT UP FRONT!!!

Owner response:Simply, does not warrant a dignified response.....

LeSanne, We love your house here in Santa Fe! You have it decorated so beautifully! We're having lovely weather and a great time. You have added so much to make this above average for a vacation rental and we would sure recommend this house to anyone we know coming out to Santa Fe to vacation. Best wishes, D. & gang

Hi LeSanne, I want to say that we really enjoyed your home. It felt like our own home with familiar amenities and tastes. Kristi and her father also enjoyed it also. We had everything we needed for making our Thanksgiving meal. There was nothing missing for our comfort and convenience. We enjoyed the DVD's. We would like to use it again sometime. I am a horse person and especially loved the books and art. Thank you, K.V.- Sedona, Az

LeSanne, We had a delightful stay at Casa de Tahoma! Nice furnishings, comfy beds, and so much nicer than staying in a hotel! It is a great alternative to hotel life and having to eat in restaurants all the time - able to cook, and dine in. Close enough to downtown to enjoy, but able to escape the crowds. Many thanks, Debby & Patrick

LeSanne,Our stay at your beautiful Santa Fe home in late July 2007 was as comfortable as being in our own home! Your home is in a conveniently located neighborhood that was very quiet and had very little traffic.Everything we needed was in place for us and your decorating tastes are to be commended. We enjoyed your collection of old TV shows and movies available on DVD for us to view.You are a straight shooter and we appreciate it. Best wishes to you.The Handy Family – Los Angeles CA

Dear LeSanne, Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us! Having such a comfortable 'temporary' home meant more to us than you could know. And, the house was perfect. Thanks again! All the Best! -R. Kidwell

What a wonderful experience. I have family in the area, but they don't have enough space to put up Mom, Dad, 2 kids and Granny! It was so nice to have a comfortable home atmosphere to relax in apres ski, galleries, & museums. My compliments on the decor. The elegant Southwestern design, including original art and countless fascinating touches really made for a memorable Santa Fe "experience". Thank you. I would highly recommend Casa Tahoma to anyone. Although it is not as near to the tourist attractions, like the plaza, it is not inconvenient. Nothing is that far away in Santa Fe and being close to 599 made it easy to traverse from one side of town to the other while avoiding heavy traffic going through Santa Fe. PS to the owner: We never did find the garage door opener.

Owner response:So happy you enjoyed your Casa Tahoma 'experience',Phillipa! I did have to replace the 'missing' opener! many blessings, LeSanne

Casa Tahoma was the perfect backdrop for my first visit to wonderful Santa Fe. It is elegant but with a feeling of being at home. Close to all attractions but removed enough to thoroughly relax after an exciting day. Artistic touches abound throughout the home, a perfect compliment to Santa Fe itself. Casa Tahoma is perfectly equipped with everything needed to ensure the perfect vacation experience. I can't wait for a return stay to see the rest of Santa Fe I didn't get to see on this all too short vacation.

We loved your place! We loved the warmth, the colors, the art, the spiritual, native american and cowboy touches, the light, the books/magazines/music/videos/maps (so well “stocked” with what visitors need when they travel). We especially loved the write-up on Casa Tahoma and the paintings that inspired the name of the place. We loved the patio and landscaping. We loved the “county” drive from your place to downtown on 599, the quiet and classy neighborhood, and the accessibility to near-by shopping and restaurants.We would gladly recommend it to anyone visiting Santa fe.Many Thanx,Cara, Claudia & Carly - Dallas, TX

This was my first time in Santa Fe and I loved having all of the comforts of home to sink into after a full day of shopping and exploring. I also appreciated the full kitchen for dining in and really enjoyed the spaciousness and the decor--it was part of the whole, wonderful Sante Fe experience for me!

What a great experience! This is the best rental experience we have had in Santa Fe. Tahoma was as perfect for entertaining our guests as it was for just relaxing. Special attention to amenities and decor made it a pleasure. Quiet, private, yet close to everything we wanted to do. I highly recommend it!
