Modern cabin inside the national forest
Let the outdoors in! Hot tub is down the stairs at the end of the deck.
Nothing more relaxing than laying in the hammock next to the creek.
Master bedroom with the tree of life.
There’s nothing like waking up to the sounds of the creek and the hummingbirds

About this property

Modern Cabin Inside Sf National Forest 12 Miles to Plaza

Beautiful modern mountain cabin with all high end amenities INSIDE the Santa Fe National forest.
Summer and Winter wonderland!
The home is all on one level - no stairs of any kind (except the exterior stairs down to the hutub) King bed in the master and two queen beds in the guest rooms - all plush pillow top beds with very comfy sheets and down comforters.
Awesome master bath with giant cast iron tub, perfect for two if you don't feel like sitting in the hot tub :-)
Fully stocked kitchen with a Viking range and everything you will need.
Extreme privacy - this is one of the only properties like this in the Santa Fe area - a true mountain paradise get away, yet so close to town with a mountain creek that winds through the forest.
Out door enthusiasts will love it here, bring your mountain bikes in the summer and your cross country ski's in the winter, ski right out the front door!
Since we are located in the national forest hikers will love it here. There are great trails within walking distance or by a short drive - another reason to have an SUV so its easier to get up into the forest past the cabin.
The home has ample deck and patio space overlooking the creek and hot tub, perfect for out door entertaining.
Birders will love it up here! We have great birds all year around but especially in the summer when the hummingbirds are everywhere.
Cool temps in the summer when downtown is hot!
Encantado resort is right down the road for world class dining and spa services.
There is a 2 mile dirt road to the property and the last 1/2 mile can be very bumpy and it can get muddy or snowy depending on the weather. I would recommend an SUV or higher clearance vehicle for the summer months to make travel on the road more comfortable. In the winter a four wheel drive SUV or truck is mandatory because we are in the mountains and there will be snow - see the pictures.
So if you are looking for a place to truly relax and be surrounded by nature yet be close to all that Santa Fe has to offer please consider us!
Pets are allowed for a fee, please discuss with me first.

We really enjoyed the combo of hot tub and cold creek. The house exceeded our expectations. It was so nice to have multiple hiking trails right outside our front door and within walking distance. We did a lot of cooking in the well appointed kitchen. The hummingbirds and jay provided daytime entertainment to where we never even turned on the TV. Thank you for a lovely, dog friendly, unique stay from three Santa Fe Opera fans!

Spectacular stay

I stayed at this home for 4 days and it was nothing short of spectacular. The roaring stream just below the house provided a great secluded remote feel without being too far from the city's social scene. The house layout with the big beautiful windows facing the stream and forest was a backdrop that you couldn't get anywhere else. Would recommend to anybody!

HONEYMOON DESTINATION

ZEN! Brian’s place is everything that we were looking for! A place to recharge our batteries and a place to absolutely disconnect with the world! It was beautifully laid out and just so welcoming! As was Brian! He was so accommodating in both our checking in and with our checking out! The hot tub was spectacular! The LARGE bath tub and shower were over the top lux! Folks, this place is the real deal! With all the natural lighting and large patio doors, you always felt as though you were outside even when you were inside. You were part of nature!

Paradise in the mountains!

My husband and I loved this place! It is clear that this house has been a labor of love and we felt so lucky to have had the chance to stay here while visiting beautiful Santa Fe. Brian is an incredibly gracious host. The home itself is beautiful with a wood burning stove, fully stocked kitchen, gorgeous deck looking out to the woods and serene creek below. The hot tub was a perfect place to relax after a day of skiing and the master bedroom made us feel like we were staying in a 5 star hotel. We definitely want to visit again!

Wonderful and Special place

What a fabulous place to stay. Up in the Forest about 20-25 minutes from downtown Santa Fe. Such a special place. Adorable squirrels and birds everywhere. Our first drive through the forest was a little hairy, but got easier and easier each time. Every need was thought through in the house. Highly recommended!!

Santa Fe Get Away

The house was very clean, comfortable and private. The setting was perfect for our group of nature lovers! We loved feeding the birds as requested! Brian was a great host & very quick to respond to all our questions. Beds were comfortable and it was very enjoyable to sit in the hot tub after long days of seeing the sights. As noted in the listing the road is bumpy which made the drive to town a little longer than expected. We were charged an extra 50 per day since we were a party of four & not two which I overlooked in the details. Enjoy!

We felt we were getting away without being too remote. There was plenty of room for our group of 6 to do puzzles, read, do yoga, etc. There are lovely trails nearby. For some of them, it's an adventure just getting to the trailhead.

About the host

Hosted by Brian Bodei

Host profile image
My name is Brian and I have lived in this paradise for over 17 years and now its time to share.

Why they chose this property

This is the only location thats this close to Santa Fe, inside the national forest, on a stream that affords total privacy and high quality of living. I feel so blessed to have been able to live up here all these years. I can never get over how beautiful Pacheco Canyon is!

What makes this property unique

This home was designed by and award winning designer - no boring architecture here. The home was planned to feel like the outdoors and indoors were one, and I truly think we succeeded. Sitting by the creek, watching the humming birds, having margaritas on the deck - or in the hot tub. Mountain biking and skiing right out the front door - endless miles of hiking and exploring, watching the birds - it never gets old! The only problem with staying up here is that you will not want to leave....Santa whaa?
