The perfect place for our needs! The casita is attached to the main house with separate entrance. It’s very well maintained and spacious with the added security of the property being gated. Mike and Bernie couldn’t have been more gracious hosts. During a major storm Mike checked to make sure we had everything we needed in case we lost power. A delightful couple we chose to engage with. We’ll be going back to our new home away from home!

Our high desert storms can be frightening at times. Not sure if you were aware that we had a lightning strike in the desert just about 100 yards away from the house. We do have a 40 foot lightning grounding rod in the NE part of the house. This is connected to a surge suppressing system for our electronics. We are happy your experience at our Casita was great. We look forward to seeing you again in the future and thank you for your business... and also for leaving the place immaculately clean. Our doors are always open to you guys, Safe travels.

We had an amazing stay at the Southwest Casita! Mike and Bernie were very sweet and helpful. The little casita had everything you could ask for! Even frosted beer mugs in the freezer. I was very impressed with that little touch. Haha. The views were outstanding. We had lived in this area before so it was nice to be back in the high desert of New Mexico. The bed was comfy. The shower was great! Nice to have a washer and dryer. Thank you again for a lovely stay. We would definitely stay here again. 5 out of 5 stars!!!!!

The property owners had great communication but also gave us privacy. There were plenty of clean linens and towels. Kitchen was clean and provided everything we needed to cook meals- grill on the back patio was a huge bonus. On Saturday morning we saw hot air balloons while sitting out back. Overall fun and enjoyable experience!

What a wonderful stay we had at the casita. It is set up with a guest's every need in mind. The decor is cheerful and welcoming -the whole place is excellently appointed. The hosts were available for any questions or concerns and could not have been more helpful, yet they were not intrusive. The sunset views are stunning. We had an easy drive to anything we needed in town. There is no doubt that we will stay at this delightful place on our next visit to Rio.
