So restful!

Our three night stay was so restful. The location is quiet and peaceful. It’s also close to downtown Santa Fe, which makes it pretty much the perfect combination.

Proximity to everything

We did not want to stay in the city, even though we planned on activities in Santa Fe. We also planned a trip to Taos and the Pueblo, so the location at Teseque was perfect. House was older but cozy and supplied with everything we needed. The little chapel and llamas on property were a bonus.

Unforgettable Getaway

Wow. Where do I begin. My girlfriend and I came for three nights after two nights at a spa north. The property is soooo cute and well organized and the house was eclectic yet comfortable and easy. Great location 15 min north of downtown. The alpalcas were very cute and the chapel on the property is straight o it of a fairytale. Overall an amazing stay and would love to visit again

Perfect Cottage

This place has everything. The location is wonderful, and the cottage itself is on a large property. Total privacy. The cottage itself has everything that one could need. Just bring your clothes! Plan to stay an extra day just to enjoy the cottages front fenced in yard, and the back covered patio. Eager to stay here again

Magical Stay!

This is a wonderfully comfortable, lovely, wonderfully decorated where we were trancended to a magical and restful stay. It was better than expected and described on the ad and look forward to coming back again and again to this magical place. We loved it so much that we ended up extending our stay. Excellent communication and follow up with the property manager. Thank you so much! 10+

A restorative stay

My partner and I stayed here for six nights in early September. The property is absolutely beautiful complete with alpaca, a small number of guest houses well situated away from one another, a charming small chapel, and comfortable seating under the trees. Even a hammock! We both definitely needed a rest in the country to reconnect and restore and this was the place. Lauren was delightful to work with and everyone we encountered on the property was friendly. The house is a short distance from Tesuque market, one of our favorite places to eat, grab a glass of wine, and pick up some basics. There are also other nice restaurants nearby in case you don’t want to go back at the Santa Fe. If you do need to go to Santa Fe, it’s a very short distance into the plaza maybe 10 to 15 minutes max. We will return!

Folk House Tesuque, NM

We liked the location of the property since it was convenient to Santa Fe, Taos, Los Alamos and 1 hour from Albuquerque. The appliances were excellent. There was not a lot of counter space in the kitchen but we made do by moving a few things out of our way. My biggest issue was lack of good lighting. There were few overhead lights and lamps were dim. Keep in mind we are in our 60's. Communication with property manager was always prompt.

The pictures are exactly what you’ll walk into. Very charming and creative folk decor throughout the house and property. Extremely quiet and peaceful. Short drive to Santa Fe attractions but we enjoyed spending most of our time in Tesuque. Highly recommend for a couple.

Quiet, serene, and secluded

This is a gem of a place, so unique. Waking you are transformed to another country. The curtains moving with the breeze. Frieda books and decor. The grounds are hard to leave. We stayed here while exploring our next home. We would definitely stay again. The opera is a short 7 minute drive and Lauren is so helpful.
