My husband had the best anniversary vacation ever at Dorothy's property! The home was beautiful and clean, and had all the kitchen equipment and supplies needed to cook up the best meals. And when we were too tired to cook (from all the wonderful museums, shopping, and hiking in the mountains nearby) there's a restaurant called Harry's Roadhouse that is amazing and only 5 minutes away. We kept the windows open at night (57 degrees was fantastic after the 80 degree Houston nights we have in the summer) and slept like babies on the comfy bed. And the hot tub was the icing on the cake! We soaked under the night sky and and dreamed of retiring in Santa Fe some day. Dorothy was available to answer questions any time, and got back to us quickly. What a wonderful stay we had. We will definitely be back!

Dodie was a lovely host. Her home is gorgeous and clean and she was available for anything we needed. The property is tucked away in the mountains and the stars and hot tub are gorgeous at night. We brought our 3 year old and had a magical time. My husband fell in love with the property and we plan on returning!

Beautiful home - very well appointed with all the essentials for our weekend getaway. The hot tub was amazing and the home was very comfortable and clean, with great art inspired decor. The kitchen had everything we needed and the location was just close enough to downtown Santa Fe to be convenient by car, but far enough to be secluded in nature. 5 stars all around!

LOVELY home. It was exactly as advertised, and just what I and my SO needed. Quiet, beautiful, loved the heated floors on the first floor as well.The short direct road in to the home is a little bumpy, so for short cars, you'd have to plan ahead and go slow, but everything for us overall was perfect!

Loved the house. The pictures don't do it justice. One of the nicest houses we've stayed in. Loved the warm floors in the morning. Very quiet neighborhood and feels a lot more secluded than it is. My only regret is that I never got around to trying out the hot tub. Would definitely stay here again.

The property is stunning in every way and Dorothy is an amazing host. Located outside of Santa Fe, this peaceful retreat is just what you need to recharge your batteries. Dorothy has thought of everything and the few times I needed her help for something she was a phone call away. She was kind, friendly and very welcoming. There was a cold spell when we were but the jacuzzi made it perfect! I'm sure I will be back!

We fell in love with the house as soon as we stepped foot inside. It is so clean and well kept and we can tell the house is very loved. I snuck my wife out for our 3 year anniversary and Dodie was very great at communicating for every part of the trip. We will definitely come back again ! Also we has some deer greet us in the morning and it was the cherry on top !

Really enjoyed my stay. It was beautifully decorated , clean, comfortable, peaceful, outside of 5g, centrally located to my New Mexico adventures and reasonably close to the airport. Dorothys place really checked all of the boxes for me for a restorative trip. The views of the stars are amazing from here. I have not stayed at many properties such as this but it was a really great experience way better than a hotel, I should like to come back again soon when return! Thank you for being a great host

About the host

Hosted by Dorothy Dean

Host profile image
I've lived in New Mexico for 43 years, loving it the entire time.

Why they chose this property

Close to town but has the old world feeling of the Santa Fe I first met in 1979. Quiet, fresh mountain air; I walk up my road and I am in the Santa Fe National Forest. Beautiful views of the mountains the entire drive out.

What makes this property unique

The lights of the city are occluded which makes twice as many stars visible in the night sky. I love watching meteor showers from my hot tub! It is exquisitely quiet and peaceful and only 15 to 20 minutes to the plaza all along a graceful mountain road without traffic lights and only a few stop signs, no traffic!
