An ideal spot for a weekend getaway. Loved the space and decor, being right in the water was just perfect. A very well stocked kitchen too! Would stay again if in the area.
Well stocked kitchen. Beautiful home with nice decor. Lots of places to sit inside and out. The house accommodated 12 people well, even with only two bathrooms.
This is the most beautiful property we have ever stayed at. A secluded, serene, comfortable home. Having the Chama river literally right outside the door is an amazing bonus. You will most definitely! enjoy your stay.
We had a great experience! The property was extremely cozy, clean, and absolutely beautiful. We (the owners) brought our employees for a small business retreat and getaway and this property was the perfect fit for us! Highly recommend. Will stay here again! Property owners and caretaker, Thank you for allowing us to stay on your property and making our business retreat “one for the books!” We look forward to coming back and staying at the property again.
Wonderful cabin with a relaxed, cozy vibe. We didn't stay long enough to enjoy all the features, but really nice setup for hanging out, including a fire pit and chairs overlooking the river.
The property was spectacular and the house was perfect! Bill and Lu made sure all of the amenities were taken care of. Spent a lot of time outside on the Chama River. I have already recommended this listing to multiple people! Look forward to scheduling another visit!
This home is beautiful!! right on the river. Home has everything you would need to enjoy your stay; along with very comfy beds. Very private and peaceful location that we plan on renting again sometime in the future.
We had a wonderful time in nature. The home design was great for our family. The kitchen is well-stocked, and we enjoyed cooking. The sounds of the river and birds were a delight as well as the fragrance of desert vegetation. We enjoyed watching birds play while listening to the water flowing. Making a fire was super easy with the wood stacked right beside the fire pit The location was great for the hiking we wanted to do. Highly recommend!
This may be the most stunning place we’ve ever stayed. The views, the property, the home are all amazing. To be spitting distance from the Chama was absolutely incredible. We are not big birders, yet were astounded by the variety swooping around us. The kitchen is generously stocked with every conceivable pot, pan & gizmo. The cupboards overflow with books & games, but what we liked best were the many places to hang out. The screened in porch beckons from dawn to dusk. The opportunities for “cozy” are numerous. The wood stove and fire pit were generously stocked with split wood and there are stacks of fluffy blankets and breathtaking views.For much of this, as well as handy advice, we were thankful for Rick, the on-site caretaker. He assured we had all we needed, provided useful information yet plenty of privacy.There aren’t many places I definitely want to return. This is at the top of my list.
Great property and location within a reasonable driving distance to Christ in the Desert Monastery, Chimayo, Santa Fe and Taos. Secluded and beautiful. The owners were communicative and the caretaker gave an added sense of protection and guidance.
Great house in great location. Fully stocked and right on the river . Wonderful screened porch on the river side of the house . This was our second stay and we hope to be back many more times .
My family used the house as a base to explore Chaco Canyon, Ghost Ranch, Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, and local area hiking and Taos. Aside from the great location, the house was clean, in a relaxing setting right by the Chama river, and had about every convienience you could want. I recomend this house.
Can’t say enough good things about this house, the property and the hosts! Gorgeous home with breathtaking views of the Chama and surrounding mountains, river access in the back yard. Very friendly, relaxed and helpful hosts. Comfy beds, luxurious showers and a very well stocked kitchen! Could not have asked for anything more from a rental!
Stayed in Bill and Lu’s home for a long weekend and truly enjoyed the experience! The stove kept the place warm and there were plenty of extra blankets. The surrounding area is gorgeous and was a great escape from the city for me and a few friends. Bill sent very precise directions about how to get there and get into the house and we encountered no issues.
Would recommend this to anyone who wants a calm getaway.
My husband and I really enjoyed this house. It’s far back off the main road and feels private and isolated. We were able to bring our two dogs and there was plenty of room outside for them to play. The house is stocked super well from the kitchen, to bedding, to games to play. The area is remote and filled with amazing views. The owners were quick to respond and the on-property contact was helpful and fun to chat with.

Wonderful!
What a great time we had at this beautiful property right on the Rio Chama. We stayed three nights at this fantastic artists home and loved it.
Four of us slept comfortably and loved the ample and well appointed kitchen, living area and dining room.....and the screened in porch overlooking the river was a perfect gathering place for morning coffee~ We would love to return next year!
Lovely, quirky house in a great location. Odd bedroom placement. Needs another bathroom (especially with ten adults). The natural setting makes up for quirks. Never knew cottonwoods could be this beautiful. Well-stocked kitchen. Freshly-split firewood.

About the host
Hosted by Bill and Lu
My husband and I built our home in 2009 and have enjoyed the special qualities of Abiquiu. I need to return to Northern New Mexico for time for the peace and quiet. And to rebuild my energy. It calls me back.
Why they chose this property
Why this Property? Because it's beautiful. 50 feet from the river is wonderful. The land of Enchantment.
What makes this property unique
On the river, sleeps 5 couples -plus an extra person on the screened portal, another on the window seat and another on the couch. And a queen futon in the studio. It has a nice kitchen with everything you need to enjoy your stay. There is a barbecue and seating on the river. In the summer you can enjoy your meal on the screened portal.
