About this property

Adobe casita in country setting

One large bedroom has a queen-sized bed and the smaller one has a double bed and an outside entrance. They share a bathroom with a shower. All towels and sheets are furnished. The living area includes a cozy living room and a fully-equipped kitchen with eating area. There's a washer and dryer in the bathroom. The larger bedroom and the living room have smart TVs and wireless internet is available throughout the house.

A large wrap-around porch lets you enjoy our wildlife and beautiful creekside environment here in the Gila country.

The guest house is situated on twelve acres about three miles from downtown Silver City. Perfect for your stay in our beautiful area whether you want to browse the galleries, shops and museums downtown or hike in the beautiful Gila National Forest about one mile away. Quiet, comfortable and welcoming.

The main house on the property also houses my High-Lonesome Bookshop with new and used books about the west, hunting and fishing, natural history, country living and local history.

You must cross through a small creek to get to our property. Please check during the monsoon season (July-September) to see if we recommend a 4-wheel drive vehicle.

Everything was great about the casita and the host, and I intend to stay there again if available when I return to Silver City! Two things to note: it’s mentioned in the description but at the very end: there is a creek crossing that must be made, and the guest shiuld make sure and have a high clearance vehicle, especially during the Summer Monsoon season! The other is that there is no AC in the guest house. This will affect summer comfort, and while the host graciously provided a couple of fans, a couple of extra fans would be helpful, especially if both bedrooms are to be used.

While only 3 miles from town, the casita was a quiet retreat with deer wandering on the property and hummingbirds feeding on the porch.

Fantastic Place

Loved this place. It was close enough to Silver City to buy groceries and whatever else we needed but far enough away where we couldn’t hear the traffic. Plus there was all kind of wildlife.

Adventure in Silver City, New Mexico

Wonderful Casita and surrounding area

The Casita is amazing and has everything you need. It's close to the main downtown area but also far enough away from the hustle and bustle. Lots of parks and hiking areas near by and also not too far of a drive to some New Mexico recreational areas.The outside area is great to relax and watch all the wildlife that comes through the area.

Wildlife corridor and a quiet space

We enjoyed the diversity of plants and animals surrounding our clean and well appointed casita. Also were able to access Pinos Altos and Silver City with ease. We were able to return to the lovely casita after hiking and enjoying what we had planned to see. It was a truly relaxing and much appreciated location. Our host was helpful and available if we needed anything. We would definately stay again!

Very pleasant, accommodating, excellent communication.

Cherie is a very gracious host. The property is fairly secluded, no road noise. Pleasant place to relax and enjoy the scenery. Cherie was extremely accommodating with my situation of uncertainty for length of stay. Communication was above and beyond. Absolutely will be staying here again.

Experience Silver City

The Adobe Casita was absolutely the perfect choice for a relaxing trip. Coffee on the porch each morning while watching the quail and hummingbirds started us off. Our host, Cherie, was one of the best we've had. Her advise concerning the area helped us so much . It's like we've been friends forever.

Writing retreat

Cherie's adobe casita makes for an ideal writer's lair. While writing, whether inside or on the front porch, we were serenaded by Gamel's quail. While only a short drive from Silver City, it felt like we were way out in the country. Highly recommended!

Mike and Wayne were wonderful guests. Friendly and fun to have around and left my casita in great shape. We traded book writing and collecting stories and books! Would love to host them, or them with their wives, next time!

Sweet Casita close to all the things we needed.

Cherie made us feel welcomed and comfortable for our 3 night stay in Silver City. The casita was spacious, quiet, cool, and was the absolute perfect place for us to relax and enjoy our vacation. My husband enjoyed watching the Gambel quail running around the property. If we are back in Silver....we will look to stay here. Thanks Cherie for your hospitality!

Relaxing and beautiful setting

We loved our week at Cherie's Casita. Quails and great horned owl calling in the evening and many songbirds heard along the creek made for a delightful experience. It was most enjoyable to become acquainted with Cherie and see her fascinating collection of books. The house was very comfortable and the kitchen provided everything we needed to prepare our meals. We are looking forward to a return visit and sitting out on the wraparound porch enjoying the sights and sounds with morning coffee.

Peace and quiet in the country

This is a lovely property with all the comforts of home. Cherie is a thoughtful host and owner. She had just about anything you could need but forgot to bring with you. That's not just hospitality but good planning. We left a few goodies behind to add to what's in the cupboard. There are many things we liked about the Adobe Casita, Gram's House. One of the best, though, was sitting outside and watching the sun come up. Then at the end of the day watching the sun go down and the stars come out. We made lovely memories and added to a lifetime of stories to tell. We look forward to our next trip and saying hello again to Cherie. Thanks from Peter and Judy

Fabulous Bucolic Get-Away

We have many reasons why our stay at Cherie’s casita was outstanding, starting with the host, who was warm, gracious and generous. Our cozy, pleasant ‘home-away-from-home’ was spotless, comfortable and equipped with everything to make us feel welcome. The quiet, bucolic setting perfectly suited our desire (and need) to relax, watch an amusing array of animals and birds and at night, stargaze. When we didn’t feel like driving the short distance to the park for hiking, we just stepped outside our door and walked around the large property. The icing on the cake that made us feel especially privileged was that Cherie found time to show us around her bookshop, High-Lonesome Books. It’s filled with hard-to-find Western Americana and Outdoors treasures. We were on a road trip and had to move on after a few days but can’t wait to return for a longer visit! Ruth & Burt
