Nice property nestled into some stunning scenery, far enough away from anything to feel removed from the hustle and bustle, but near enough to things not to be inconvenienced by necessary needs like food, gasoline, etc. Wonderfully central to Abiquiu and Ghost Ranch for Georgia O'Keeffe fans.

Lovely stay surrounded by NM grandeur

Each morning I walked the gravel roads to get a new view of Perdenal - Georgia OKeefe’s favorite mountain. Snuggled into Canones, this lovely, comfortable home welcomed us to a quiet setting away from the bustle of Abiquiu tourists. Our host thought of every need and has made their casita a perfect getaway for us.

This is by far one of the best properties I have stayed at! The house was absolutely beautiful with so much thoughtfulness going into the items we might need during our stay; there were even binoculars for us to use! The grounds were so peaceful and quiet with plenty of space to spread out. The pictures on the website do not do it justice, if you're considering this property, BOOK IT...you will not be disappointed. Amber was very responsive every time I reached out to her and her father even came to look for us when we thought we were lost.

Interesting location

This property was definitely set back within the landscape and was such a neat experience. Mountain scenery was spectacular as were the night stars as there is very little light pollution at this property. House itself was really well built, furnished, and the kitchen was well stocked. Very clean and great communication with the host. Would stay here again if in the area.

Wonderful Quiet Location

If you’re looking for a quiet weekend getaway, this is it! The house was amazing and well equipped for cooking and everything you’d need for a long weekend! The host was amazing. The location is in a small community and everyone was super friendly. The house had great outdoor space, which was awesome for us because we brought our 2 dogs. Overall, we would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Can't wait to get back

This funky little village reminded us of The Milagro Beanfield War. It is a great, centrally located place for exploring the area. We stayed there a week and wished it could have been much longer. The house itself far exceeded our expectations: clean, cool, quiet, comfortable and extremely well-appointed. We lacked for nothing, and the property owners couldn't have been nicer and more attentive to our needs. We've rented many vacation houses, mostly through flipkey and airbnb, but this one was the best.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at our casita and that you had a good experience! When we decided to rent our casita our goal was and still is to provide our guests with a home away from home where you will get to breathe in the fresh mountain air and enjoy your time surrounded by the beautiful mountain views! My parents (the owners) enjoyed meeting both of you and said you are awesome people! All the best to you! Amber

Truly does feel like a retreat or refuge, tucked away in a small village, but within driving distance of well-known places. Hosts are nearby, eager to assist with anything needed, extremely friendly and happy to share knowledge of the area. The fresh herb garden is a special amenity. The original core of an early traditional home (later expanded) has been converted to very comfortable, modern accommodations. The ambience is indeed tranquil, with a sense of timelessness.

Lovely Casita

Stayed at this lovely casita with spouse and 2 dogs. Casita has been totally renovated and had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay (loved that there 2 full bathrooms). The large yard was totally enclosed, with a covered porch, and had stunning views of the mountains. Our host, and her parents who lived next door, were available to answer any questions and give info about the area. The casita is located not far from Abiquiu Lake and halfway between Ghost Ranch and the town of Abiquiu. Do be aware that the casita and the town of Canones are 7 miles from the main highway (Highway 84). It is a scenic drive to the casita but there are no stores/restaurants once you leave the town of Abiquiu so bring provisions (a stop at Bode's General Store is a must!). Looking forward to another stay at the casita in the future!

Beautifully appointed home in a scenic, secluded setting

Two friends and I stayed at La Casita Tranquila for 3 days as our base for exploring the area around Abiquiu. The house seemed to have been recently remodeled (probably around and added to an old adobe home) with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was equipped to meet every cooking need. The living room, bedrooms and bathrooms were newly furnished. A real treat for us (that you don't find in many rental places) was the large areas outside the house, all enclosed by by walls. There were numerous places with outdoor furniture to sit and read and look at the surrounding cliffs and hills dotted with pinon trees. There is also a little cabin with whimsical things inside that guests had added. The Casita is actually located in a tiny village, Canones, where some families have probably owned property for centuries. It is a 15-minute drive from the highway, but we enjoyed the scenic drive back and forth. The surrounding area includes Ghost Ranch, Abiquiu, a great ice-cream shop, and stunningly beautiful cliffs and geologic formations. We would definitely rent the Casita again for another visit in the future to this magical area of New Mexico.

Lovely house with beautiful view

This was a beautiful home with many amenities. It is located somewhat remotely in a small community and is surrounded for privacy, and you get a great view from the the patio area. Very clean and all of the furniture and beds were nice and comfortable. The owners are lovely people. I would rent this again!

Una Casita Tranquila us a hidden gem!

The beauty of the land and the love and craftsmanship of the casita is captivating and awe inspiring. Rick and Thelma are generous and welcoming hosts. There are not enough words to describe their generous hospitality. The process from start to finish was flawless and Amber is so very helpful! We will be back to the casita every year. Don't miss out on beautiful mornings and evenings on the back porch listening to the sounds of the village. You won't want to leave the casita!

Clean, welcoming home in a beautiful little valley

We stayed for a long weekend and enjoyed the lake (about a 10 minute drive from the house). The house is completely updated, well maintained and very comfortable. We met one of the owners and a neighbor. Everyone was warm and welcoming. Thank you for a lovely time!

Comfortable and Convenient

While we had a little trouble finding the property because we just didn't go quite far enough, the challenge was worth it! The house was super clean and comfortable. The kitchen and bathrooms appear to be brand new. We loved being able to bring our new puppy and the fenced yard was convenient for him. We would have enjoyed being able to stay longer and hike up to the canyon. We have agreed that we'll have to come back sometime so that we can do that.

Awesome gem tucked away in the hills!

Fascinating history surrounding this community. Lovely casita beautifully renovated and surrounded by some of Mother Nature’s best work. Perfect for our home base while exploring the many beautiful and interesting sites around Abiquiu. Our pup loved having her own yard with great views of the surrounding mountains. Host family was gracious and very accommodating. We look forward to our next visit!!
