We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was great, especially sitting on the patio in the morning enjoying the view and the hummingbirds! It was a great location to explore northern New Mexico.
This is maybe my fifth stay and the place is as lovely as ever. Communication. Check in and out is easy. It’s a beautiful location and most convenient for my visits to my son and family.
My wife, dog and I had a great stay. Laurie was very communicative when we had a brief power outage, offering to find a hotel for us and refunding the night. Fortunately, the power was restored. Will be back.
What a beautiful home furnished with everything you would ever need. The views were amazing. We had a peaceful & relaxing trip! Thank you for sharing your home!
Had a relaxing private retreat in a charming, well-appointed casita with great views of Northern New Mexico landscape, skies, and birds. It is situated for easy day trips to Ojo Caliente Hot Springs and Abiquiu, NM. There are not a lot of dining options nearby so I brought my own food and ate in for the most part.
We had a great week! This place is in an ideal location, nearly equidistant to Taos and Santa Fe, and just minutes from the Ojo Caliente Spa. The unit itself was extremely clean and modern, and communication with the property owner was seemless.
What a magnificent home and location! Secluded with breathtaking views! Quiet and peaceful. My fiance and I enjoyed the outdoor fireplace nightly. Everything we needed was at our fingertips, this home has all the amenities one can need or want. Its embellished with Southwestern flare and decorated exquisitely. Laurie was a fabulous host! Her responses were timely.
We really enjoyed staying here. Unique floor plan, a fully stocked kitchen, and beautiful views. Everything we needed was there. There was also plenty of firewood available (and I regret not using the fireplace - but if we would have used it, there would have been more than enough wood). Last but not least, check in and checkout we’re both very straightforward. If we visit this area again, I would definitely choose to stay here!
My husband and I had a rejuvenating retreat at Kiva. The landscape is beautiful and the casita exceeded our expectations. The space has a magical quality with beautiful artwork throughout. We also had exceptional meals at NOSA - Chef Graham is so talented. Hope to return soon!
This romantic and tranquil getaway boasts a stunning and fun blend of southwestern and contemporary architecture replete with modern amenities, and is filled with southwestern & contemporary art throughout. It's also a coffee lover's delight, boasting various coffee machines including grinders, as well as an assortment of beans. We enjoyed sitting on the patio watching various birds at the birdfeeder, including the beautiful Western tanager. Our Golden Doodle was with us and we took him for scenic walks on the winding road leading to the property. We did run into a small snafu upon check-in which Laurie promptly addressed. We dearly loved the property, but might mention that there is no hot tub despite its mention in the online listing. If the opportunity arises, we'd love to return to this oasis!
We work in a high stress real estate business, and this casita location was perfect! The house had everything we needed, and we only saw 2 other people the whole week we were there. We made a small fire every morning inside while we had our coffee, and then a small fire outside in the evenings! We will be back soon! Gorgeous views!!
This property was gorgeous and set up in the rocks with a beautiful view.
Super comfortable with everything you would ever want or need!

This property was better than the photos. Such a quiet, serene place. Just what I needed. Only 13 miles from great hot springs and 45 minutes to Taos and Santa Fe. Views were amazing. Can't wait to come back. Host was great!
