One of the shelves in the kitchen holds several board games and puzzles, including Scrabble, Parcheesi, and Cards Against Humanity. There are plenty of empty shelves in the kitchen to store your groceries.

LIVING ROOM: The living room downstairs has book shelves with our book collection, hand carved wooden beams, and creative lighting. The house shares a doorway with the main house, but is kept locked for the privacy and solitude of guests. High ceilings give the space the feel of a luxurious hotel accommodation. There is also a new futon that can sleep additional people. In the living room, there is a heater and a ceiling fan but no AC.

BATHROOM: Downstairs is a single private bathroom with a large shower. Bathroom has bath, hand, and face towels, natural & regular shampoo, conditioner, natural & regular body wash, and a blow dryer.

Facing the National Forest is a private balcony with more seating and breathtaking views of the mountains and forest. With a clear sky, you’ll get to see the brightest stars at night.

Our backyard is a common space and features a propane grill, a playground and a baby swing. The backyard and also the front yard are completely fenced off.

We provide natural products so you can pack light and our cleaning supplies are natural and environmentally safe.

Guest Access:
Our house is in an ideal location for access to town and to the mountains. Culture, arts, restaurants, and nightlife are only 15-20 minutes away. Hiking trails are out the front door. Ten Thousand Waves Japanese spa is only 30 minutes away, along with Santa Fe public transportation that will take you to town or to the mountain, which provides mountain bike carriers. The famous Santa Fe Downtown Plaza is 20-30 minutes away.

El Dorado is just several miles away and has grocery, shopping, and lots of great restaurants including Arable and Carmelita’s (best Greek food & green chile burgers!).

Cafe Fina is our favorite restaurant and is just down the road from the bottom of our street. We love their breakfast, chicken enchiladas, and their green chile burger. They’re closed on Mondays and only serve breakfast and lunch.

The guesthouse is attached to the main house, but the guesthouse has a separate entrance. There is a soundproof door that separates the guesthouse from the main house. You have access to the entire guesthouse. If you need to do laundry, please let us know, as the washer and dryer are in the main house.

The winter months can be snowy, so 4×4 vehicles are highly recommended to fully access the driveway as well as the roads in Santa Fe in general.

Plenty of parking on the property. The entire house is fenced in. Our property is a total of 22 acres, with a couple of hiking trails just steps away from the house.

Closest grocery store is the El Dorado Supermarket located in the Agora Shopping Center. This shopping center also has several restaurants and local shops.

Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods is about 20 min away.

Animals on property: we have a Japanese Akita who stays in the backyard most of the day, 6 chickens that stay in an enclosed area behind Maha’s art studio, and 3 Nigerian Dwarf goats that roam around the front yard. All animals are friendly, but please be mindful of throwing anything on the ground as the goats will eat it.

Goku, our friendly and giant Akita stays in the backyard. If using the backyard, please let us know so we can bring him inside. He’s very strong and likes to jump.

We have 3 Nigerian Dwarf goats. They are friendly and like to roam the front yard during the day. We leave them locked up with the chickens at night.
