Escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy the lovely, yet kid friendly, sanctuary of Casa Guiqueno. Perfect home base to see all of northern New Mexico and equipped with a level 2 EV charger station. Enjoy renowned whitewater rafting or a hike in the nearby Rio Grande del Norte National Monument, Carson National Forest, or Santa Fe National Forest or soak in nearby hot springs of Ojo Caliente. Perhaps just relax after a day of wine tasting in the local wineries and enjoy the fabulous vistas. The home is only 40 minutes from downtown Santa Fe, Taos, and Los Alamos. It is centrally located to ski areas of Sipapu, Pajarito, Santa Fe, and Taos as well and extremely close to rafting venues or the Opera, numerous Galleries, petroglyphs, and cultural activities. Go fly fishing up the Chama River or Rio Grande or rafting which is only minutes away. After soak your body in the home’s oversized clawfoot tub then sip wine while you soak in the fabulous vistas from this home. Create those memorable times away from home in this home. The home has two feet thick adobe walls with a viga, split cedar and pine latilla ceiling, with smooth plastered walls and a portal (veranda) overlooking the Rio Grande Valley and Sangre de Cristos to the east. This place is just what you imagined for Santa Fe adobe architecture with a modern touch, an amazing kitchen, beautiful bathrooms, but with a uniqueness all its own. A large basalt retaining wall with wrought iron gates provides privacy during your stay. Get the Santa Fe experience without all those high costs. Quick policy points to note: no events, no pets, no smoking on the premises, & number of guests on the reservation must match visiting the home.

Greg, our host, was the BEST host I have ever worked with!!!! He couldn’t have been more welcoming and accommodating!
The house was spacious and comfortable, with a view of the mountains and the Ohkay Owingeh pueblo. A good home base to visit Santa Fe and many historic sites.
Great location. We were able to travel within an hour of all our hiking experiences.
Not quite what we expected but all that we needed.

The owner is a liar saying we smoked in the house and he called and woke me up at 1230 am to say the lights were on. Now he says there is damage total crap!
We had a lovely time at this spot-- the setting was beautiful, and the home clean, comfortable, and safe. We used it as a home base to visit Santa Fe, the O'Keeffe homestead and Ghost Ranch, and multiple nearby hiking trails. It was a perfect setting and so relaxing. Highly recommend.
Beautiful, comfortable accommodations. Owner was very friendly and gave good suggestions for touring and dining. Lovely adobe home. Within an hour of both Taos and Santa Fe. Would not hesitate to stay there again. Good dark sky location.
Staying at Casa El Guiqueno was delightful and restorative. The house is beautifully appointed with a chef's kitchen, relaxing and elegant living and dining spaces, comfortable bedrooms, lovely and unique bathrooms, and a porch which invites rest and relaxation as one looks out on a verdant valley. Greg was a wonderful host.
Everything was wonderful. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen spacious, the bathrooms had all the luxury comforts you could want and everything was clean and ready to use. The only thing I’d have added was a second, more comfortable couch.
Wow! This place is amazing. View is absolutely stunning and feels remote even though it’s only a 15 minute drive to Walmart. Definitely the cleanest place I’ve stayed at and Greg was a great host! 11/10! Pictures do not do this place justice at all!
Our family stayed here with ages ranging from 15 to 85. We all enjoyed the house, the property and the neighborhood. It's a welcoming rural retreat while still being close to the Ohkay Owingeh pueblo and Espanola so there's lots of opportunity to shop for local crafts and check out the local cuisine. We used the high-end kitchen extensively and it was seamless for full meal cooking. We especially enjoyed sitting and eating on the porch while taking in the scenic views. Greg, the property contact, was outstanding to coordinate with including fast responsiveness and thoughtfulness in addressing our needs. I strongly recommend this location as a place to stay.
Was a beautiful place to stop n rest 2 nights on our way back from Colorado. We didnt leave but once to goto dollar store so cant say much bout town. Neighborhood was quiet. Loved the bath tub n coffee that owner brought me that i drank on the porch looking at the beautiful mountains. Also they let us sign into their Netflix n disney + which was a great feature to keep kids busy (we dont have either) got to watch some fun movies we never seen snuggled up. Owner was very accommodating even offered a crib for my 1yr old. We will be back. Home away from home thanks
My daughter (30 yo) and I took a dad-daughter road trip for the weekend (9/15-9/18 2023). I chose this spot because it is out of the touristy, high-priced, chain lodging trap. This home is in a residential, rural setting and it is pretty awesome.
I did, as advertised, enjoy the sunrise while having coffee. I was joined by crowing roosters. And that was awesome. At night, we enjoyed very bright stars in the late summer skies. Absolutely stunning ways to start and end the days.
The accommodations are superb: great kitchen appliances, all the utensils, place settings, coffee maker … to make for comfortable living. The bedrooms and bathrooms are beautiful and comfortable. Not one complaint about any accommodations.
For me, a strong suit is the location. We were basically a 45-55 minute drive from Taos, from Santa Fe, and from Ghost Ranch. My daughter and I spent time in all three places over our 4-day weekend. Big plus! Espanola is basically 15 minutes away if we needed to run to a grocery store.
I will definitely stay here again. No doubt about it!
The house is beautiful and unique. Clean, stocked with everything you could need for a home away from home. Greg was helpful, responsive, and flexible with us. Will stay here again.
This property is amazing! It is clean, beautiful, very different from the Midwest…I struggle to find appropriate words. I would highly recommend and hope to someday return.
We loved our stay at this very comfortable Adobe in Rio Arriba county. Greg was a super host and responded quickly to every message we sent. Very authentic Santa Fe style and drinking coffee on the spacious front porch watching the sun come up was exactly what we wanted. We made easy trips into Santa Fe and to the lavender farm and to the Georgia O’Keeffe Welcome Center and Abiquiu Inn for breakfast and dinner. Driving into the property have us a little pause because of being two women alone, but we felt perfectly safe upon arrival. Thanks Greg , we will recommend your beautiful place to anyone wanting to get out of the city and into the enchantment of Northern New Mexico.
This home is a beautiful blend of adobe and wood. It's in a quiet area with no traffic and a great view when sitting outdoors and we were lucky enough for a full moon. It is centrally located for day trips to many areas. I don't cook on vacation but--wow--what a kitchen if you do. Communication was great and check-in check-out were both quick and easy.
The property is a bit away from town and the location worked well for the hiking exploration and daytrips we made based from the rental. The house is very interesting and has a cool adobe vibe. The view east of the house is a small farm that adds nice ambience.
