Paige and Alma are excellent Hosts! This was our 2nd time being hosted by them and as was with our first stay, everything was beautifully appointed, Pet-Friendly (we are in Las Cruces to attend Dog Show events), and impeccably clean.
We were truly impressed the property! Everything was in excellent working order. The property had a wonderful HVAC system...which we loved. Also, the property was very "pet friendly" with a very large backyard. There was also a structure that looked like a "bandstand" which would be wonderful if someone was going to book the property for a wedding or something. Overall, this was a wonderful property.
Paige was a very responsive host and quickly handled any issues, concerns or questions. I stayed in her casita for 3 months while my house was being remodeled. It was close and convenient to everything. My dog and I enjoyed our stay and Paige was a wonderful host.

Richard, I am so sorry to hear about someone going through your vehicle! I did check the front door cameras during your stay and I did not seeing anything unfortunately. We have not had any issue like this before. Please let us know if we can accommodate you in any way! Our sincerest apologies for this situation.
It was a great experience. Paige and her mom are very nice and helpful. The house was clean and organized. And a big plus is the ac keeps you so nice and cool. I would highly recommend staying here. It’s also very close to lots of restaurants.
Everything about this place is five stars. I had great communication with Paige, my host, before, during, and after my stay. I liked the location because it was near everything I needed. I felt safe 100% of the time. The house was roomy and nicely furnished. The eat in kitchen was large and well stocked. I especially enjoyed the sun porch off the kitchen at the back of the house. There was a desk back there and a comfortable chair. I spent time each morning and evening back there and did quite a bit of work at the work table. The bathroom is large and nicely remodeled. Everything I needed was there. It was such a nice two weeks that I spent in this beautiful little cozy, safe, private and comfortable home. I hope to be back sometime soon.

About the host
Hosted by Paige Hunter
Welcome! I'm Paige. I was born and raised in New Mexico, and this area is very special to me. I've lived in Gardner Casita for 3 years while going to NMSU just down the road. I am so passionate about New Mexico's culture and love. When I'm not hosting, you can find me working on a DIY project, at the farmers market, or spending time with my pups. My goal is to ensure you have a comfortable and memorable stay, and I love being a host because it allows me to share my love of this place and help make your visit unforgettable, with all the conveniences of a home.
