Sage Cottage is a quaint home conveniently located on one of the main roads through town. Easy access to everything Carlsbad has to offer, but private and serene with a huge yard. Beds for 6 guests ( queen, full, 2 twins) in 3 bedrooms w AC plus complete kitchen, dining space, and spacious yet cozy living room. Two bathrooms (although the upstairs one is mostly for children due to its small size). Plenty of off-street parking, easy keypad check in, and local co-host keep your stay worry-free.
We want Sage Cottage to be a pleasant happy place for you to stay while visiting Carlsbad. Whether you are here for vacation, for work, or any other reason we hope you will be comfortable here.
We love the home because it feels like a sweet little dollhouse while still being comfortable and functional. Downstairs we have two bedrooms, charming living room, complete kitchen with dining space, the main bath with tub shower combo, and two bedrooms. The front bedroom has a comfortable queen bed, large closet, and room darkening curtains. The back bedroom has a full size bed ( sleeps two but smaller than a queen), closet, and room darkening curtains. The living room has a sofa bed, although it's not particularly comfortable. Upstairs in the charming attic we have two twin beds, a desk/ study area, and an adorable/hilarious little vintage bathroom.
Home has a large fully fenced backyard with patio, and pets and kids are welcome.
Convenient, easy access to town due to location on a major thoroughfare through town. It's not a huge or fancy house but it feels "just right."

The house was a nice place for us to come back to after exploring the area. We enjoyed our time in the surrounding National Parks, and found the house to be comfortable with all the things we needed during our stay!
This place was very convenient and close to everything in town. Our family of 5 enjoyed the large backyard and there was plenty of room for us to enjoy our stay.
We stayed here for 3 days and it was perfect for what we needed. The house is older but it was clean and comfy for us. We enjoyed our stay and got to spend quality time together as we explored NM.
Rooms were perfect and the location was convenient. We have 2 suggestions for improvement. There needs to be more plates to suite at least the 6 people the home will sleep. A new heavier weight shower curtain or a curved shower rod, this will be to keep the curtain off of you while showering.
This was the perfect place to stay while visiting our adult daughter in Carlsbad, it was so cozy and quiet and perfect! It had enough space for all three of us plus room for more! We will definitely be staying here again, highly recommend this property to anyone!!
We loved the house everything was comfortable and very clean we enjoyed our stayed very much. Kids loved playing with some toys and read books. Would definitely recommend for a family.

Cute house, nice surprise up stairs for my granddaughter. Was exactly what we needed for a few days. Check in directions were good enough we never needed the manager.
Rode to Carlsbad for a weekend. Was surprised when we noticed the 1/2 sized bathroom upstairs. The house was inviting and had everything we could need.
The home was a cute stay for our short trip to see the Carlsbad Caverns and hike Guadalupe Peek Trail! Everything was clean and location great.The upstairs room and bathroom or on the smaller side (don't think adults can shower upstairs) so do know that going in.
Instead of grabbing a hotel, we opted for a VRBO as a stopping place for the night as we traveled through town. Exactly as advertised, no issues at all.
The house was great for our needs and not too far from Carlsbad Caverns . Good for the price !

Everything about this place was great, from the family/living room for evening movie watching; the kitchen for cooking; kitchen table for card/board games; the two large first floor bedrooms; the most comfortable twin beds in the quiet upstairs; and the patio/yard! Highly recommend this!
House was comfortable and clean, centrally located to groceries, restaurants and highway to Caverns. Bathroom upstairs was fitting for 2 year old. Yard was big but no furniture.
