We were very happy with our stay The large, secure yard was great for our pups and the unit had everything we needed plus some nice personal touches. Only thing i would suggest us s string attached to gate hasp because it lucks when you pull it closed and i needed to get in a chair to reach the hasp to release it.i would be happy to stay at Kendra’s place again!

Great little VRBO. Worked out great for us and our 2 dogs. Very easy to get to & in a nice quiet neighborhood. There are lots of restaurants &Oh yeah, shopping near by. My only suggestion is providing a space heater for the living room. This room didn't seem to warm up like the rest of the rooms. Overall, the home had everything we needed for our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

The place was good, but the bed was terrible. mattress was lumpy and sunk to the middle, pillows were flat.I communicated this to the owner and she just replied ' I'm Sorry it is not to your liking'If the bedding was comfortable, this place would be a good place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Kendra Rickert

Host profile image
I was born and raised here in the North Valley then left New Mexico after college to live in Los Angeles, New York, and Arizona. My husband and I returned home to be near family and to start one of our own. My father built this casita and the house next door some 20 years ago. My husband and I lived in this casita with our baby son and my father lived in the bigger house next door. We soon grew out of the little casita and now live a few miles away. It is our pleasure to welcome you to our families home!
We now own a yoga studio in town. We are here to help you have a wonderful experience in Albuquerque

Why they chose this property

The North Valley is my favorite neighborhood in ABQ. There are many hidden gems that we are happy to help you find. The Rio Grande Nature Center is just about a mile away. Once there you can take a walk down by the river sit in their meditation area and watch the turtles. The acequias (ditches) are where the locals take their morning and evening walks. We are happy to tell you how to get there! There are so many great restaurants and attractions near by! If you want to try authentic New Mexican food then you are a hop, skip, and a jump near by some of the best restaurants in town!

What makes this property unique

Our little casita is an authentic New Mexican adobe house. The walls are thick which provides a quiet space for our guests. The walls keep the home cool in the summer months and warm in the winter months. The back yard is newly landscaped and the back porch is perfect for dinners or for sitting with your morning coffee. We know and love all of our neighbors. Some have lived there for over sixty years. We are a tight little community who still brings each other tamales on Christmas Eve and who take care of each other. They are happy to welcome you to the neighborhood!
