Looking for Golf

Chose the property because of its location to several golf courses in the area. We were able to be from Las Cruces to Albuquerque and places in between for courses.The people who manage the property are very kind and helpful.Felt comfortable right away.

3 week stay at this lovely VRBO

We had an extended, 3 week stay, at this VRBO and loved every minute of it. Our main reason for visiting was to photograph the scenery and wintering bird population in this general area of NM. The location was perfect for Bosque del Apache and other nearby birding locations. The home is adorable, had everything we needed - and the hosts were excellent. I give this a 5-star and a “highly recommend” VRBO - you will not be disappointed !!

A Doggone Good Place to be off the Beaten Path!

A small farm environment. Very quiet location. There was a lovely electric fireplace for ambiance, and cooking basics, utensils, and ICE in the freezer! The bed was great! The cabin was immaculate, and a great combination of connected buildings with doors between bedrooms, living room, kitchen and bathroom. This gave us the ability to confine our dogs to one or 2 rooms, and bring in their dog kennels for "safe sleeping".Of course we never left them alone in the house. :-) We were attending dog competition activities in the Socorro area.The livestock paddocks were an excellent place to exercise the dogs, who are young and energetic. We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

Visiting home

The property was beautiful and quiet. It provided the perfect location for day trips to show my wife the state. Max and Maddie made our mornings even more memorable. This is perhaps the best vacation we’ve ever had. Thank you so much for helping us create memories that will last our lifetime.

Great cabin and location

Very clean and cozy cabin, off the beaten path, but only 5 minutes from I-25. Carol is a great host and the farm fresh eggs were wonderful. There is a full kitchen with all the cooking gear you need to make meals there, refrigerator/freezer, gas stove, microwave, etc. The host noted that their internet can be slow at times, but I have Verizon cell service and had 4 out of 5 bars at 4G with great speed, so we also used that at times as an alternative. Beautiful view of the mountains, would definitely stay here again!

Quiet & comfy

Being hunters from the south ….we were unfamiliar with the area for our “one night stay” We didnt want a motel due to having to empty our truck of ALL our luggage due to theft! No worries at this little cottage Maddie & Max would have alerted the neighborhood…everything was safe & sound …:)

Out of the way, nice stay.

We enjoyed staying here and using it as a base to explore central NM. The host took care to ensure guests have everything needed to be comfortable. While convenient to several interesting sites, it is not a destination in itself.

Great little place for our stay

The property is great for the area, the house had everything we needed and then some. It was what we needed when we were in town hunting and I will certainly stay again if I am back in the area. It is much nicer than staying in a hotel and offers more space and privacy. I highly recommend.

I have never had the experience of being IN a sunrise or sunset until we stayed here. It was one of the most amazing things. We enjoyed the cows, dogs and rural setting...very quiet. We also loved being able to take our pets along with us.

About the host

Hosted by Carol Caldwell

Hi from New Mexico!! My name is Carol Caldwell. I am a wife, Mom, Grandma, and a Great Grandma. I am the owner/founder of K and C Naturals. My husband and I bought our property around 1987. Family is extremely important to us. We are fortunate to have our kids and their families living next to us. The cabin was built for my granddaughter and her family. They had to move for work so now we wanted to share our slice of heaven with others.
