Such a perfect place in the heart of Santa Fe! Perfectly decorated with two king sized bedrooms/baths — perfect for two couples! Quick walk to the Plaza for Indian Market and restaurants. House was stocked with all the necessities which made for a stress free stay. Only minor difficulty was dealing with the unpaved road after a very hard rain one evening!

Terrific spot for four adults. We were very comfortable relaxing in the living spaces, hanging out on the porch, and listening to the birds on the back patio. Location was central to everything. We highly recommend the casita to you for your next stay in Santa Fe.

We loved the house's artistic decor, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, and the short walk to downtown Santa Fe. We especially enjoyed the front porch, where we had coffee and tea in the mornings and talked about our day in the evenings. Check-in was very easy and the owner responded quickly to questions during our stay.

This was a lovely place to stay in Santa Fe. Easy walking distance to the plaza , but in a quiet residential area. The place itself was very clean, well appointed, and had plenty of the essentials. We were very impressed with the vinyl collection and had a blast listening to records while playing games in the evenings. The owner was very nice and communicative. My only complaint would be the state of the road leading to the casita, as it had literal craters that spanned the entire width of the unpaved road that were deep enough to take out multiple tires. This was probably out of the owners control, but it was nerve wracking to make sure we approached the driveway at a crawl so we didn’t mess up our undercarriage. All in all a great stay and we would return!

Casita Del Norte is absolutely the best place I have stayed for a week-long get away. Shelly is an excellent communicator. The check-in / check-out process was smooth and easy. The kitchen has quality appliances, dishes and everything you need to cook a nice dinner. The consumables were well stocked. The beds are super comfortable. The house is quiet, we didn't hear each other from room to room. The neighborhood is quiet and conveniently located. We loved the turntable and the records! There were fun books to browse through and a nice collection of local things to do in a binder. The furniture is comfortable and overall Casita Del Norte is welcoming, easy to hang out in, and frankly it was hard to leave. Thank you Shelly, for the fantastic experience in Santa Fe!

About the host

Hosted by Shelly

Host profile image
We live in Austin Texas and choose to make magical Santa Fe our second home. Things we love about "The City Different": award-winning local cuisine, walking in a vibrant, historic downtown and getting outside to enjoy the fresh, cool mountain air. Santa Fe holds a special place in our hearts and (after your visit) hope it does for you too!

Why they chose this property

Casita Del Norte is just a 8 minute walk from the historic Santa Fe Plaza in the Rosario Hill Neighborhood. The historic plaza has award winning restaurants, museums and shopping for every budget and range of tastes. If you would rather hop in the car, there are endless opportunities for outdoor fun; pickle ball, hiking, skiing and cycling are just minutes away from the front door. Bring your pickle ball paddle (or we have 4 to borrow) and join a game at Fort Marcy park, just quick walk from Casita Del Norte.

What makes this property unique

Head out the door to explore the neighborhood by foot. The Rosario Hill neighborhood is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Santa Fe. Many Spanish families owned large parcels here through grants by the Spanish King. A diverse residential area, the neighborhood incorporates much older family homes next to newer residences such as Casita Del Norte. Running parallel with Rosario Boulevard, the Arroyo Mascras, evokes the feeling of living right by a river with tall and gorgeous elm and queen of paradise trees inhabiting the arroyo.
