Nice neutral site for our visit as attended the Bataan Memorial Death March. House and grounds were clean and well kept. Kitchen was stocked with all the items we needed for cooking our breakfast and dinners. Host was good to work with, gave us all the information we needed upfront with contact information if we ran into any issues/problems.
Great place. Property was clean, in good condition, and as advertised. My son and i enjoyed the park/open space directly across the street and I enjoyed the spacious and clean backyard. We would stay here again.
The house was in a good location for parks, groceries, activities, NMSU, etc. The home was clean and the neighborhood quiet. Great place for a weekend stay.
This property is perfectly located within an easy walk to downtown and a few restaurants. The house is well equipped , clean, and in a nice neighborhood. A great place to relax.
This location made it super easy to participate in a variety of community activities (eg farmer’s market, local theater, live music). Accommodating and responsive hosts!
Had a wonderful stay in this cute decor home. The kitchen was well stocked. Lots of towels, hand towels, wash rags and kitchen towels. Very comfortable beds.
Everything about the place was nice and wonderful and clean. Appreciate it all the communication with the property manager was very patient with me being a first time user of Vrbo.
This is a super little property!The location is excellent, not far from some good restaurants and shops.The property looks just like it does online. Very comfortable, with a nice patio area, outback.The owner Rebecca, is very nice and available for any issues. Would definitely stay in this property again on another visit.Thank You Rebecca!
We really enjoyed staying at this home in Las Cruces. Rebecca was an excellent host. The home is welcoming, clean and comfortable. My boys loved the Star Wars mural in the backyard! We also enjoyed the short walk to downtown for the Farmer’s Market, Children’s museum and restaurants.
This is a super cute home with fun art and vibe. We didn't cook or spend a great deal of time there, but it was conveniently located for our needs. Great little coffee shop around the corner and the street fair was fun. If you are a light sleeper be aware that there is a train track fairly close and the train went by nightly, but didn't bother us.
Rebecca and Arthur’s home is cozy and comfortable. Plenty of bedding and towels and comfortable beds. Location was ideal- close enough for us to easily visit family and get to Old Town Mesilla.
Rebecca and Arthur were quick to respond to any questions- though we didn’t need anything once we got in. Very kind and thoughtful.
Thanks, again!
We spent a week here in early March. The neighborhood is very quiet, the location is great, just a short walk to old downtown and an easy drive to the old Spanish town of Mesilla. Gas station one block away and grocery story a five minute drive. The place was spotless and as pictured and described on VRBO. Rebecca responded promptly to questions with helpful answers. There were trains, but we slept without any problem. The back yard proved a pleasant place for an afternoon happy hour. We would stay again.
We are on an extended, winter road trip from MN. Brrrr! This was our first VRBO stay on the trip. National Parks, Wildlife Refuges, Museums and Monuments were/are on our itinerary. This location was perfect for visiting these destinations. A sled was provided by the hosts for sledding at White Sands. Successful and wipeout runs. This was fun. Photo opportunities of scenery and wildlife are plenty. If you are a biker, plenty of bike paths are available to traverse. Downtown is very close to the house. Dining out options are many, and several museums and outdoor events are located downtown. The house is well furnished and fitted for a comfortable stay. We would stay here again. Thank you Rebecca & Arthur!
The host was very accessible. She had chips and salsa waiting for us which was a great treat.The house was located so we could walk to town which we enjoyed.
This was a very pleasant experience. The home is clean, cozy, well appointed and in a quiet neighborhood. We had one small glitch upon arrival, which the owners addressed immediately. They were available without being intrusive. The local chips and salsa were wonderful after our 9 hour drive from San Antonio, Texas.
Comfortable house. Very well equipped. Hosts were very accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Very convenient to downtown attractions. We would highly recommend
