Over deze accommodatie

4BR Adobe Home met zwembad, Sandia Heights, 360 graden uitzicht

We verhuren onze eenmalige en toekomstige bejaardentehuizen per week of maand. De woning is gelegen aan de voet van de berg Sandia boven Albuquerque. Met een zwembad dat zowel uitzicht op de stad als de bergen biedt, is onze Casa de perfecte maat (vier slaapkamers) en een perfecte vakantiebestemming. Ontspan of dwaal! We zijn minuten van de Sandia Tram en minuten van een van de zeven natuurreservaten in New Mexico. Skiën is direct achter het huis van de Santia Tram vaak tot maart (sommige skiën in mei van 2019!)

Er zijn bergwandelpaden (door de arroyos) een zeer beschikbaar fiets- en joggingpad om niets te zeggen over slechts tien minuten van een Starbucks, Barnes en Noble en geweldige restaurants. We hebben ook Trader Joes in de buurt en Whole Foods in de omgeving. De setting is hoog woestijn (acht tot negen graden koeler dan Albuquerque), honderd meter van het omliggende nationale park en de Indiase landen. (De Pueblo van Sandia).

Kwartels, roadrunners, vossen en een breed scala aan zangvogels zijn te horen in de diepe stilte. De Indiana-landen omsluiten heilige plaatsen (ze runnen ook een casino) Op slechts 45 minuten van Santa Fe, ligt Casa Griffin op 20 minuten van de luchthaven Albuquerque en op enkele minuten van de Sandia Peak Tramway, 's werelds langste luchttramspoor (skiën, spectaculaire omgeving, leuke restaurants) at the Peak) Albuquerque heeft het hele jaar door Indiase markten en is gastheer voor luchtballonnen, de Universiteit van New Mexico en andere culturele attracties. Het is ook een van de populairste golfbestemmingen geworden.

Naast een bezoek aan de vele pueblos in de omgeving, zijn er ook veel dagtochten beschikbaar, zoals een bezoek aan de natuurlijke wonderen van Tent Rocks aan het Cochiti Lake (gerund door de Cochiti Pueblo) en de oudste continu bewoonde stad van Acoma America.

Als je met kinderen of kleinkinderen reist, heeft Albuquerque een geweldig kindermuseum en aquarium (met een café waar je cola kunt drinken en gegrilde kaas of hamburgers terwijl je haaien en pijlstaartroggen en veel scholen vis bekijkt! ) en een betoverende kindertuin (compleet met kasteel!) in hun botanische tuin.

De tram op de berg (Sandia Peak Tramway) is ook een spannende reis voor kinderen, tenzij het een ballonfeestweekend is, wanneer de drukte een uur en twee uur wacht op de reis naar de top. Goed restaurant op de top. Een goed Mexicaans restaurant beneden is een leuke plek om af te spreken of te wachten op degenen die de tram de berg op nemen.

Volledig uitgerust met twee mountainbikes, high speed internet toegang als je een laptop hebt. Gastaccount beschikbaar om e-mail op onze computer te controleren. Geen huisdieren. Zwembad beschikbaar midden mei-oktober. Informeer niet voor een periode van minder dan een week. Het is een thuis om je te vestigen als je op zoek bent naar een plek om thuis te komen na een dag vol avonturen en activiteiten.

Of het is een comfortabele plek om te ontspannen en gewoon in de natuur te zijn. Het is ook een plek die schrijvers hebben gehuurd om aan hun volgende mysterie te werken! Hoewel ons huis acht slaapt, is onze normale huur vier tot zes. Het beste voor een gezin, twee tot drie koppels, drie tot vier golfers! We hebben vier slaapkamers. Twee slaapkamers hebben queensize bedden, twee slaapkamers hebben twee aparte bedden. Onze ideale verhuur is vier tot zes gasten. Hoewel we in staat zijn om acht te slapen, bestaat uw feest in werkelijkheid en ideaal uit een baby of een kind! vier singles of twee tot drie paren! We vermelden nu ons huis als slapende zes, we hebben twee queensize bedden en vier aparte bedden. Vanwege de voetafdruk van ons huis, kunnen we het gemakkelijkst zes volwassenen en een paar kinderen jonger dan negen onderbrengen.

A week on the Watermelon Mountain
This home was a great place for my wife, our two dear friends and me to base our travels in North Central New Mexico. The home was large, inviting and the pool was a wonderful way for us to cool down after our busy days exploring the Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Taos areas. The mountains behind us were glorious as was the view of Albuquerque and its suburbs below. The home was within 8-10 minutes of I-25 and no more than a 25-minute drive to any place in Albuquerque, a 40-minute drive to Santa Fe and about 2 hours and 20 minutes from Taos. We are hoping to return in 2025!

Beautiful home in stunning location
The views from this home are breathtaking. Easy walking access to foothills and wilderness trails. The house is lovely, well appointed, and very comfortable & cozy. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. We had a very relaxing stay and loved the sunset views and nighttime views (stars galore). The owners were so kind and went out of their way to accommodate us. I highly recommend this home, and we plan to return again.

Out of State Family stay for an Albuquerque wedding!
Perfect home for Mother and Father of the groom to stay with additional family members. Our son lives in the neighborhood, which made it that much more convenient to do all the prep work leading to his wedding day. Great place to hang out, pool was great, views are amazing. Saw mule deer nightly on property, also caught a Lynx running through the side yard one evening, very cool. Love all the quail, they are all over the place. Saw few bunnies too. If you have adult family members or a couples getaway coming up, this home has lots of room to space out or gather around together. Has all the conveniences of home and more. The sunsets are wonderful and the city lights are truly magical to view from the property. So happy with our stay, definitely would stay there again.

Fantastic getaway
This place was incredible in the foothills of the Sandia mountains. It was so beautiful to see the city lights at night, and also the moon rising over the mountains, nestled in the backdrop of a spacious landscape. Added bonus, was the family of deer that would wander around the yard. It was very quiet, very serene, perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of Albuquerque. The house had everything including different areas to sit by yourself for a little peace and quiet. The owners were very responsive when we developed an issue with the garage door. They had someone come out the next day and fix it, which is awesome. We were all visiting from Michigan to visit our aunt that lives in Albuquerque. I know that when we come back, we would love to come back to this place, it was truly remarkable. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay

Albuquerque Gem!
This property was the best! It was fully appointed with everything you needed for a stay from coffee to greet you to bath products. They had written instructions for the home along with great recommendations for various restaurants. The outdoor areas were fabulous and the views were breathtaking!! The pool was a lovely place to relax. Checking in and out was a breeze. Communication with the homeowners was easy and you always received a prompt answer. This property checks all the boxes and more!!

Casa Griffin in an amazing place to stay
Amazing communication, easy check-in, and the views....AH-MAY-ZING!!! This home was perfect for the family, the boys loved the pool and the views during the 4th of July fireworks allowed us the opportunity to see all the displays throughout all parts of the city. The home is perfectly located in a quiet neighborhood at the base of the mountain with easy access to main roadways and highways. From the heights to the south valley or west side in less than 30 minutes was a typical commute to visit our family and friends. We would absolutely choose this property for a future stay.

The house is up near the base of the Sandia mountains, with quick access to trails for hiking and running. The view of the city is beautiful. The house is super comfortable, with a well equipped kitchen and a fireplace we used often.

This home is well-loved. It is comfortable and easy to arrive and settle-in. The kitchen is well-stocked with supplies, as are the bedrooms/baths in terms of towels, bedding and paper products. The enclosed porch was our favorite place to eat, looking out over the pool and the view of the hills and city beyond.

Perfect staycation
We came from Santa Fe to have a week staycation. It was perfect. We spent hours in the pool everyday. Also did a lot of early morning trail hiking and even picked prickly pears on out hikes for evening cocktails. The night tome city views were great, it felt like an LA view. Home exceptionally well stocked. We cooked most of our meals and had ever utensil, pot pan etc we could possibly need. Hosts very responsive and friendly !

We were not able to receive check in information until the day before our stay, so I got a bit anxious. After voicing this issue with the owners I was told they were going to change this process. The property is beautiful and the views are spectacular. Plenty of room for our party of 7.

Great stay at Casa Griffin
We are regular visitors to Albuquerque, but this was our first stay at this lovely home at the base of the Sandia mountains. Moira is a perfect host, inviting us to treat her home as if it were our own, from the pool to the espresso maker/frother (nice touch!) to the mountain bikes -- and a delicious bottle of Sangiovese. For our family, coming to the area for a wedding in Sandia Heights, the location was perfect, and it was noticeably cooler than the August temperatures in the valley. Sunsets over the valley were beautiful. The large kitchen was fully equipped and, hey, who knew that feeding koi was such fun? Thank you, Moira, for all the contact and consideration!

A little piece of heaven at the foothills of the Sandia Mountains
We have just turned from a magical stay at Casa Griffin! We have been staying in rental homes for our last five vacations, and this, by far, was the best ever. Andrew and Moira, our hosts, were beyond incredible. Moira handles the communications, and she was extremely responsive. By the time we finished the necessary e-mail correspondence, I felt we were great friends, and had known each other for years. Every detail was well organized and executed, even to the level of the provision of overnight, stamped mailers for the signed contract, and return of the very helpful information packet and keys. Moira makes her guests feel as though her home is their own, encouraging checking cabinets for things you might need! Our stay spanned the winter holidays, and provided a wonderful weather break from the frigid northeast. We arrived late on Christmas Eve, and as we approached the spectacular hilltop location, with stunning views of the blinking lights of Albuquerque below, we watched as 4 does and a large buck crossed the road in front of us. A magical welcome! Upon entering the home, we were greeted with some lovely edible treats, which we really appreciated as all the stores were closed. This might have been a Christmas treat, not offered at other times of the year, but it was wonderful. We were traveling with our four adult kids, and our daughter-in-law, and the accommodations were perfect! All beds were very comfortable, and the two queen bedrooms and two twin bedrooms worked perfectly for our group of 7. The house is equipped with absolutely everything we needed, the kitchen is spectacular, and living spaces ample and comfortable. The views from the house are unparalleled in Albuquerque, and sunrises and sunsets quite memorable. Sipping strong coffee and watching the sunrise, and sipping good wine for the sunsets, what more could one ask for in a vacation home. In between, we visited many unforgettable hiking areas and "attractions"......Ghost Ranch, where Georgia O'Keefe lived, Sky City, the oldest inhabited Native American pueblo, Tent Rocks, Santa Fe, the Georgia O'Keefe Museum, Malpais National monument, as well as spectacular hikes in the Cibloa National Forest, just minutes away from our "home." We stayed so busy. In what little down time we had, we took walks around the mountainside neighborhood, played board games, and enjoyed amazing 55 degree days. All of us would say that we would love to return. Many thanks to our gracious hosts!

Magnificent vacation home!
This was our family's third stay in this lovely home. The views of the magnificent Albuquerque sunsets and Sandia mountains cannot be beat. Watch the "lights of Albuquerque" turn on or storms roll across the skies from the home's grand picture window. This home is comfortable, clean and serene. The kids love the sparkling blue swimming pool and gorgeous backyard. The deck continues to be a favorite spot of mine for sunrise views and a cup of coffee. Views of Albuquerque are unsurpassed as you walk through the neighborhood (bikes are available too). Great shopping and restaurants are close in proximity. Truly, we are thrilled we could stay in this beautiful home again.

Stunning views! Great location! Endless charm!
Our family had the pleasure of returning to Albuquerque and we were thrilled that we could stay in this incredible home once again. Truthfully, we can't imagine staying anywhere else, even with the over 150 choices on "HomeAway''s" website. The homeowners are extremely kind and thoughtful! The house has everything you would need and more, with it being extremely well maintained. The beds and pillows are very comfortable! The views are spectacular from every view of the home! Our family loves the layout of the home and it's charm! We ate breakfast outside on the back patio by the fishpond and our lunches by the pool. Personally, one of my favorite things to do at this home, is not to sleep in but get up early to enjoy coffee on their magnificent deck and watch the sun come over the Sandia Mountains-it never gets old! We also enjoyed leisurely walks around the serene neighborhood, taking in more breathtaking views. There are bicycles you can borrow, helmets too, and get in a great ride around the neighborhood or hop on the bike path, a short distance away. There is so much to see and do in Albuquerque and there are restaurants galore with amazing food, but you could just stay put in this home and be perfectly content. Our warmest regards to the homeowners for having us!

All of the comforts of home and so much more.
Our family of six vacationed in Albuquerque this summer to visit family. We really enjoyed the comfort and exquisite amenities this home features. The location of this home is ideal, easily accessible to grocery stores, coffee shops, bike/walking paths, Albuquerque attractions and especially picturesque views! The owners of this home were a pleasure to work with. They were very thoughtful and considerate as well as thorough in the information they provided about their home and the Albuquerque area. Some of our favorite things about this home were the lovely picture windows to observe day and night time views of Albuquerque, absolutely beautiful! My husband and I enjoyed watching storms roll over the Albuquerque skyline. We could not wait to get up and watch the presentation of colors displayed on the mountains, as the sun rose each morning, from one of the impressive patios or deck. In the evening, we enjoyed walking around the serene neighborhood and watching the exquisite sunsets. Our children thoroughly enjoyed the stunning swimming pool. During our stay, our two year old marveled at the fish pond and took great pleasure in feeding the fish with her grandpa. Several varieties of birds ate from the feeders, even a roadrunner stopped by to eat. We enjoyed cooking in the backyard and often ate our evening meals in the dining room as it too had fabulous views of the attractive backyard and mountains. After a visit to New Mexico, you will understand why they call it “The Land of Enchantment.” We would highly recommend this wonderful home to anyone planning a stay in Albuquerque. The property is clean, comfortable and very well maintained. The home had everything we needed and then some. I imagine this home is just as impressive in the winter time. We had a wonderful time in Albuquerque and our family couldn’t have been more pleased with our exceptional accommodations. Our kindest regards to the owners.

Over de eigenaar

Eigenaar: Andrew and Moira Griffin

Afbeelding van de eigenaar
Although we purchased our home as a retirement home, only one of us is actually retired. At the time we purchased our home, it was the perfect Southwest distance between our two sons and their families, one in St. Louis and one in LA. The Sunport, Albuquerque's airport is an easy airport to get in and out of, in these days of heightened security lines, ease of arrival and departure is welcome. Here we are on a boat, The Fortuna in Turkey. One of us is a sailor. Both of us drink coffee.

Waarom de eigenaar deze accommodatie gekozen heeft

At the time we purchased our home, one of us (known to friends as Dr. Barista) was traveling regularly for family business in Texas. He often flew into Albuquerque and visited and stayed with friends in Sandia Heights. After a couple of years, although their generosity would have been extended, one time when his friends were out of town, he wandered on his own in the area and found a perfect home. Too perfect not to put an offer on, even though I was in Sedona that week looking for a home that would be near our family on the West Coast. By summer, we had closed. It was bought, without me even seeing it. I loved it the moment I walked in..not the house as much as the space, the views, the mountains. We both, although we have always lived on water, love the Sandia Mountains.

Wat deze accommodatie uniek maakt

Fantastic views. This last year we build a new porch along the four bedrooms so now we have quite literally views from all directions. Some friends have rented for a month at a time because they are looking to retire in the area.The area is very serene,our neighbors are very private but it's not a gated community, so its very much like a modern day pueblo. Incredible vistas, wonderful hikes, deep quiet. And yet, very close to Santa Fe and city life in Albuquerque. We do host a number of golfers (we like four) and we've had wonderful comments from most of our guests (our only complaint was that our refrigerator opened from the right and they thought it should open from the left )Dr. Griffin's secretary handled our contracts for over ten year our contracts. We don't use the current guestbook because we started with an earlier company which sold to the current company. Someday we will post all the nice comments we have received on our website our favorite was from a young family that wrote 'It's our last night in Casa Griffin and we don't want to leave!' and then went on to say they forgot to put out the garbage , oh well, their charming calligraphy note did the trick because thats how we feel,(and I although I have two masters degrees in Education, spent many years as a calligrapher) much as we love our Coop life on Lake Shore Drive life in Chicago and active life at the opera, symphony, theatre &restful weekends in the Indiana Dunes, there is nothing like the high desert and the mountains. We always feel so elated that we are coming home.....and it helps now that there's a Trader Joes and Whole Foods nearby! We have loads of reference books in our little sun room library, maps etc. a do your own concierge what to do and where to go spots and of course guests also add to our stash. It's a really simple city to fly into. We like Southwest, we travel a lot, Galapagos, Turkey, Guatemala and next Bhutan! we find Albuquerque's Sunport airport is one of the easies
