The Cowboy Cottage is located about 6 miles from the Plaza in the beautiful village of Tesuque. Tucked away in the hills near the Santa Fe Opera, it is a truly unique and charming property which features two other available guest houses and small chapel. If you have a larger group and are interested in renting our other spaces concurrently, please feel free to contact us.
What would an old ranch be without a place for the cowboys? This cottage has a studio layout and is the perfect size for one guest or a couple. Tucked back behind our other guest houses, the Cowboy Cottage has two outdoor spaces. The first one you will find located right in front of the entrance with just enough shade to keep you cool during the warmer months. Through the front door is a sweet built in window seat with table. A small seating area sits beside it and leads to the adorable kitchen. With all the essentials but on a slightly smaller scale, you should be able to whip up simpler meals in between your jaunts into town. The bathroom is on the smaller side and it should be noted that it might not be the most comfortable fit for anyone over 6 feet tall. Please inquire with us if you would like information about our other guest spaces if this is the case. The bedroom is located off the living space and is a large open area with built in banco, desk, closets and the queen-sized bed. The fireplace is not currently operable. Two french doors open out to the covered porch which faces the large lawn and private chapel.
There is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy located around the property. Just a quick walk up a path and you`ll arrive at the large lawn which surrounds a small private chapel. Settle in under the large apricot tree or relax on the hammock nearby. Across the driveway are our resident alpacas who will look on with curiosity as you are traveling around the property. The property is also home to our on-site property managers, Jeff and Lauren and their two young children.
Please don`t hesitate to contact us with any questions.

Guests will have full access to The Cowboy Cottage as well as use of several other outdoors spaces.
My family and I live in a house on the property and will be available during your stay. We try to give our guests plenty of space but typically like to stop by and introduce ourselves at check-in. Update: Due to covid - we provide contactless check in and check out but are available if needed.
The Cowboy Cottage is located on a large property and while you can conveniently access Santa Fe, it is feels like you are nestled away. The small village of Tesuque has two restaurants (one more casual, and another more formal) and a great foundry and sculpture garden. Most of the entertainment will be found in Santa Fe.
Guests will need a vehicle to get around comfortably although guests have had success using Uber for the occasional trip.
The winters here can be rather snowy and we recommend that guests have a 4WD or at least an AWD vehicle during the winter months. While we provide snow removal, the roads can be pretty slick.
