Thoughtful Host & Beautiful Accommodations

The host was incredibly responsive and provided helpful details throughout my stay. I was fortunate to experience a rare early-season snowfall, which made for a truly magical visit. The views were stunning, and the host's kind assistance in navigating the weather added a thoughtful touch to my experience.

Cozy Getaway

Our recent stay in the mountains was nothing short of enchanting. The cozy casita provided a perfect retreat for our travels between Santa Fe and Taos. We spent our evenings by the crackling kiva and really appreciated the kerosene soaked wood chips too! Great place!

It is a hidden gem that provides everything needed from comfy coziness to privacy with views of excitement. All nestled in remoteness yet centrally located where one can visit Santa Fe, Espanola, Rio Grand, Taos, and history of The Bandeleir Ruins, Sanctuary Chimayo just to name a few. The Casita is absolutely cute and cozy.

We loved our stay in the Casita. Easy to find. Even though I am familiar with the mountain village of Truchas, I was not familiar with the location of the Casita. The directions were easy to follow to find this quaint little hideaway. Thank you Vicki. Athena and I loved our time there. We also had the best of Northern New Mexico dinner at Ranchos de Chimayo, within easy driving distance from the Casita. Nick & Athena

Could not have been happier. House is private, cozy, well-appointed, and utterly quiet. Plenty of kitchen ware, plentiful wood supply, clear instructions. Delightful hummingbird wars. Looking forward to coming again.

The place was just as described. It was a perfect getaway. We had a wonderful time on the porch with a fire going. That’s where we spent 70% of our time. I would recommend to anyone.

Peacefully Serene with Killer Views

This a true gem if your desire is privacy and serenity. Located in the mountains north of Santa Fe, there's no structure within sight (the "main" house on the property is hidden behind a privacy fence). The views from the deck are incredible. The host was always very responsive.

Fantastic getaway

We drove 12 hours and didn’t make it before dark, so absolutely try your best to do so the first night so you can figure out how/where to get in. Wonderful home, perfect to enjoy the views, the weather and lose all sense of responsibility to your job or kiddos for a few days. We will absolutely be back.

Wonderful stay In a private mountain house

This little house is just wonderful. It is close to Santa Fe about an hour. So if you want to be in Santa Fe, maybe not for you. But if you want to be alone in the mountains, it is wonderful.It does everything you need. We were a little worried that there was no air conditioning, but the nights were very cool and was wonderful. Thank you for our stay

The casita was the perfect little vacation home. My husband and I booked it for our 33rd wedding anniversary and we had the best time!! The pictures do not do this little house justice. The views are amazing. Vicki is the best host she answers all our questions and was just awesome! This was our first time exploring New Mexico the state is beautiful we will definitely be back!

A peaceful, private sanctuary

I had a wonderful time resting and recharging here. The scenery couldn’t be better, there are nature walks and scenic drives in all directions, and there is not a hint of pretense. I suggest you arrive before dark on your first night, as there is a gate to maneuver and a key box. The owners were lovely to me about figuring out both of these even though I arrived on the late side. You will love this property. Five stars.
