Anna was the most amazing part of the experience. Excellent host. Beautiful property and extremely clean. Would recommend to anyone. The property is so quiet with hardly any traffic but close enough to any store you would need.

Had a wonderful stay here in Las Cruces. Home was very nice, clean and stocked. Neighborhood was quite and private with plenty of space between neighbors and yet very close to shopping and dining. Host was very helpful and communicative. We would stay again. Really enjoyed the heated pool.

Christine, thank you for staying with us, and I am thrilled to hear your family had a lovely stay. We appreciate your kind review and business very much. Please come back anytime!
Rarely do you find a stay that exceeds the description and your expectation - this one did! It is a beautiful house, extremely well equipped kitchen, sparking pool and spotlessly cleaned house. Anna was very helpful throughout the process. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Thank you, Stacy, for staying with us. We are thrilled you had a good stay. Please come back anytime.
My wife and I really enjoyed using the pool. Everything was so clean. We really appreciated the well-appointed kitchen as well as the spices and the oil. We jumped for joy when we found the blender was high-quality and had a glass pitcher.

We’re so happy to hear you both had such a comfortable and enjoyable stay! It’s the little things that make a difference, and we love that the kitchen setup — especially the blender! — made you smile. Thank you for being such thoughtful guests, and we’d love to have you back anytime!
Property was filled with character, inside and out. Pool and house were clean. The outdoor space is perfect for relaxing. Quiet neighborhood and excellent location to access White Sands. Communication with Anna and Chris was smooth and fast.
The home is extremely well appointed with kind gestures from the host such as complimentary coffee and locally sourced chips and salsa. Bedding is top notch. Plenty of seating and very comfortable living area. Neighborhood was quiet with an abundance of birds, road runners and rabbits that were fun to watch. Spent a day in Mesilla which was fantastic and ate at the Double Eagle - 5 stars!

Thank you Christina for staying with us. We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay. I got engaged at the Double Eagle nearly 20 years ago, and can confirm it's a great spot! Come back anytime. :-)
What a wonderful house! We loved our time here. The house was so beautiful—both inside and out—and the pool and back patio were divine. The fenced yard was absolutely perfect for our dogs. We did a lot of hiking in the parks around Las Cruces, and it was always a pleasure to return home at the end of each day. The host was lovely to work with. We would return.
What a beautiful property! Detail provided was on point! We were located close to all amenities and family that we were visiting. We had room to host a dinner and everything we needed was provided. Just grilled up some chicken and veggies and good to go!!
Anna checked in frequently as well as offfering things to do which was so thoughtful.
Worth the value for sure. All decor and appliances top of the line and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
This was perfect for our group of ladies playing a golf tournament! For some reason I can't get the app to work on my phone so I cant message the host.but we're thinking this may be an annual trip and we'd LOVE to book again!
Another stunning property by the owners! The home was clean and well supplied for our stay. The home decor is magazine worthy. The backyard with saltwater pool was heavenly. Pool temp was perfect and clean. Slightly slick getting in and out without rails, though. Also, grab bars in master bath tub would have been helpful for our specific needs. We can't wait to stay again! Thank you, Anna and Chris!

Thank you, Sandra, for staying with us. We hope to welcome you back soon!
Our stay was nothing short of exceptional, with the property's beauty surpassing even the most captivating photos. Sumptuous beds provided the ultimate comfort, while the spectacular pool and ideal house temperature created a haven for relaxation. Charming skylights in the kitchen and bathrooms added a warm, cozy ambiance. The host's exceptional communication ensured a seamless, worry-free experience. We genuinely recharged on this vacation. Each evening, my son slept peacefully, blissfully exhausted from his daily swimming escapades! I hope to come back more often to this place! Thank you so much for such a wonderful vacation!
