Balloon Fiesta close to Charming, Historic, N. Valley Casita!
A romantic, rustic hideaway in a true 'oasis in the desert'. Our authentic adobe casita is situated within Los Terrones, a 40 casita compound set among 6 acres of meadow, in the Village of Los Ranchos. 'Casita Chueca' has exposed vigas (beams), brick floors with radiant heat and a huge picture window on the east side offering plenty of morning light and views to the wildflower meadow.
A perfect rural North Valley experience with all the conveniences of Albuquerque and quick access to Santa Fe.
The casita offers a true New Mexican Adobe experience with modern amenities. We've outfitted the kitchen with all the things needed to prepare a quick breakfast, as well as a full dinner. Enjoy high speed WiFi and AppleTV in the living room for relaxing or cozy up to the 100 year old baby grand piano!
In addition to the radiant in-floor heating, ductless mini-split A/C offers quiet and efficient heating and cooling for optimal temperatures in each room! If there is something you need, please ask!
The casita can accommodate 3 or 4 adults + 2 small children.
The laundry room is a shared space on the greater property (not in the casita).
WILDLIFE DISCLOSURE (PLEASE READ): The neighborhood is semi-rural with the presence of wildlife, including insects. We do treat for insects regularly, however, you may experience their presence in and around the property.

About the host
Hosted by Ryan Bromberg
We are a family of native New Mexicans with deep roots in the Rio Grande Valley.
Why they chose this property
Casita Chueca (crooked house) is situated on a lovely compound in Albuquerque's North Valley. It is a piece of paradise, a semi-rural setting hidden within a metropolitan area which makes it close to nature but also close to all the conveniences of the city.
What makes this property unique
We love the easy access to all parts of Albuquerque and New Mexico while enjoying the tranquil, green, natural environment and historic ambiance. The trip to Santa Fe, which we enjoy visiting often, is very short, whether by car or the Railrunner train.
