Girls’ Weekend

This was the perfect place for our girls’ weekend to celebrate the arrival of a baby girl. My best friend and I have been friends for over 40 years and have raised our kids together and now they are having babies and it is wonderful to be able to spend time together. This home facilitated the making of great memories.

Fantastic Stay!

We enjoyed our stay at this place. We did a college tour with friends and Casa de Maiz was located very close to NMSU. GG, our hostess, communicated with us quickly and added a very nice special touch to our weekend. The house is well stocked, clean and comfortable. There are plenty of places nearby to shop. It is a quiet neighborhood and easy to get to. Check out was easier than most places. We will stay here again and highly recommend it. Thanks GG for making it so awesome!
