What a nice place. Easy drive to the balloon festival park and ride at Hoffmantown Church, while giving us a great mountain setting. Our host, Oscar, and his property managers, John and Dee, were great…very friendly, helpful and responsive. The house sits on a ravine with great sunset views from both the back patio and raised front patio. Lots of outdoor space, bedrooms were very comfortable, living space was large and well appointed. Kitchen was large and well equipped, with great startup stocks. Overall, would definitely come back for our next visit to Albuquerque. We didn’t ski (October), but easy drive up the mountain if that’s your plan. Two thumbs way up!

Beautiful Home

The house was beautifully decorated and maintained. John and Dotie (the caretakers) even had fresh muffins waiting for us when we arrived! The one question we had was answered promptly and completely. We would love to stay here whenever we are in Albuquerque to visit our granddaughter.

Best Hideaway in the Mountains

My mom has a house nearby but we needed more room for the adult kids and stayed at this listing nearby and it was beyond wonderful. So clean, and has everything helpfully labeled for easily finding things in the kitchen, we were able to make full family meals. The views are unbeatable and the air hockey table and games in the closet made for some fun nights with the family. Would love to stay again!

August visit

We really enjoyed our stay here. It is hands down the best equipped home we've visited. Evenings and mornings on the back porch made the start and end of our days here special. Yes, we'd book again.

Lots of Room and Beautiful

This house has space to spare and has everything you need, just like being at home. The host's extra touches made the stay extra special. The location is quiet and private and the views are beautiful. The road is narrow and gravelly on the final stretch to the house, but it is worth the drive into the location.

Great Stay!

We really enjoyed the house. The view of the mountains were beautiful, we enjoyed playing air hockey, and the house was well stocked. The people who look over the house were just across the street so it made us feel better they were so close in case we needed anything. If we’re ever back in the area we will for sure stay here again! It was a warm and cozy place to stay!

Why they chose this property

I loved the ability to enjoy rural life with the benefit of being 25 minutes from downtown Albuquerque, not to mention that the views are just breathtaking and the sense of community among the neighbors is just outstanding.
