This was one of the best stays! Gorgeous views, lots of room for family, and a well equipped kitchen. The hosts thought of everything; they were attentive and communicated thoroughly and with care. We will definitely be staying here again!

Thank you, Deana! It was our pleasure to host you and your family this Christmas! Looking forward to your next visit!
What a wonderful property to stay at! It's in a great location with easy access to hikes, shopping, restaurants, etc. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we extended our stay. You couldn't ask for a better host, either. Julia checked in to make sure everything was going ok and promptly answered any questions that we had. We have already booked our stay for next year.
A wonderful house in a great area near parks , shopping etc.
Excellent kitchen items and well provisioned in all areas.
Wonderful decor.
A real winner.
First impression was prefect. Walked into a large clean spacious open concept living/ kitchen area. Plenty of seating and nicely decorated. Master suite is oversized to include the closet and bathroom. The bridesmaids used the master suite to get ready for the wedding and nobody felt crowded. Beds were comfortable as were the couches and chairs. Would stay in this home again.

Thank you Felix! We are so glad it was a good place for your family to prepare for the wedding. Congratulations!!
The large open area of the kitchen to living space is perfect for feeding people and having space to sit and visit. We really enjoyed our time together in Las Cruces and this house helped make things possible.
The location is close to shopping and services. We needed to go to the University and the Convention Center and found travel easy from our location.
Thanks for keeping this property available!
From the moment we arrived, we fell in love with this expansive home. Its spacious living room and bedrooms and well-appointed kitchen made staying 'home' a true pleasure. The office made a perfect quiet place for sewing. The neighborhood was also quiet and just a short drive to shopping for groceries and exploring the many museums and parks of Las Cruces -- with one lovely community park just a few blocks away for our daily walk. We did have friends visit for 3 of the 6 weeks we stayed here; having three bathrooms gave them privacy and the beds were quite comfortable. My favorite sight was sunrise and sunset of the Organ Mountains, viewed from the dining room. Truly, we're looking forward to returning one day. Julia was an exceptional host!
Beautiful home with fantastic views!! Kitchen well stocked with staples, dishes and cookware. Beds were so comfy; linens were high grade. Loved the master bath! Exceptional space with cute artwork throughout this spacious home. Julia was a wonderful hostess and available for our every need. Thank you, Julia, for the lovely bottle of wine and snacks at check in. Would we stay again? YES!!
Our family stayed at the property and it was beautiful inside and out! We had everything we needed and all of us were comfortable and a bit spoiled. Miss Julia provided most all we needed for our stay. Many blessings and thank you!

I'm so glad to hear you had a good Thanksgiving week at our home AND that you were a bit spoiled. :-)
Come back soon!
This was the most equipped VRBO we have ever stayed at. We have used VRBO on several occasions. In Hawaii and Mexico also. It was in a great location. Very spacious. The little surprise they left was very appreciated. The goodies were yummy. All the little extra's that were available to use were so convenient.

Thank you Delayne! So glad you and your group had a great week and enjoyed some of sunny Las Cruces. Hope to have you back again soon!
We had a memorial for my sister who died in July. We had family attend from Albuquerque, Hot Springs AR, Buffalo NY, Marlow OK and Phoenix AZ. We enjoyed spending time together and had everyone for breakfast one morning. The property was spacious and allowed us to visit comfortably.
The mattresses are wonderful. And the kitchen is large and well equipped. I highly recommend!

Thank you Lynne! We are so glad to hear you had time with your family!
We stayed here for a month! It was such a blessing. Our family was able to visit and at times we had 7 of us. We were so comfortable. The location was perfect. We loved it.
Our family was blow away by this beautiful house. It exceeded all expectations and made our trip to Las Cruces even better. Our family consisted of 9 people. This house accommodated us perfectly, everyone had plenty of space. This house also came better equipped than most, kitchen was stocked with everything anyone would want or need. Each bathroom had shampoo, conditioner, lotion, body wash, etc. We loved our stay.

Adrianna - it was great to have you and your family with us this summer! We appreciate the favorable review and are so happy you enjoyed your stay. Enjoy the rest of your summer!
Our group traveled 1800 miles to Las Cruces to stay for a week. We could not have been as comfortable and as well positioned in the city without this great property! The kitchen is well stocked with utensil, pots, pans, etc., and appointed with the island and bar. If you have several people and want to cook and relax, this worked for us.
Beautiful house in an excellent area that was perfect for our group. Kitchen was well stocked and the perfect place to share a meal. Loved the house and would definitely stay again!
The home was exceptional! Couldn't ask for anything more and the host was very prompt answering any questions we had . Would highly recommend this property to anyone.

Thanks so much Lew! It was great to have you with us and we hope you enjoy your new home in Las Cruces!
We gathered family from four states for the first gathering since the beginning of the pandemic, and this home was perfect to accommodate 7 people more than would fit at our nearby home. The home was comfortable and well appointed and everyone had a splendid visit. Highly recommend.

Thanks so much Mike! Thanks for spending your Thanksgiving at our place!
My family and I stayed here while visiting the White Sands National Park and the Carlsbad Caverns. It was the perfect retreat after long drives. Julia is an amazing host and makes you feel right at home! The house has everything you'd ever need- comfortable beds, a well stocked kitchen, and a massive master bath. We appreciated the multiple dining and living spaces and the boardgames. A real plus was being able to park in the garage. The house is located in a cul de sac in a safe and clean neighborhood with beautiful homes. If you have any doubts about booking this house, look no further, just do it! You'll have a great experience!

Thank you for the kind words and for choosing to stay with us! White Sands and the Caverns are just amazing!
We stayed at this property while in town for my brother's wedding. My mom was undergoing radiation treatment for breast cancer and I needed a house in the neighborhood where I could walk back and forth.
One of my nephews and his family stayed with Grandma and my family, my cousin and my other 2 nephews stayed at Julia's home.
It came with everything, hair dryer yes, wine, chips and salsa yes, room to sit and chat, or play cards or watch a movie you bet. It had flour for baking and spices for cooking. It was really set up like your own home.
We always stay at VRBO homes for week long visits and although we were only there for 3 days this time, we would book it again for our next family reunion.
It was quite large, had enough bedrooms and bathrooms and plenty of linen, towels, detergent, soap, lotion, etc... Stay here when you are in Las Cruces next!

This is our second one month plus stay at the Francis house. It is perfect. Kitchen is fully stocked and home is located a quiet neighborhood near everything. Julia (the owner) is so responsive. You won't find a better place as your home away from home.

About the host
Hosted by Julia Francis
We purchased this beautiful home in 2017 to have a place in Las Cruces to come to for visiting with family and vacations. Originally from the area, we are excited to get back when we can and share our home with others.
Why they chose this property
We chose this house because it has the unique feature of being so close to all that Las Cruces has to offer while offering a large floor plan for large familes to stay and not feel crowded.
What makes this property unique
Location, location, location! In the middle of everything, yet a quiet and safe neighborhood filled with walking trails and close to shopping, NMSU and the mountains.
