A breathtaking view of the mountains unfolds before you at this luxury home in the heart of El Dorado. In this scenic community just south of Santa Fe, you'll have a private hot tub and a patio with both sun and shade - both of which enjoy spectacular views of the desert and the sparkling night sky.

Step inside to be greeted by beautiful beamed ceilings and pieces of art, crafts, and textiles inspired by the Southwest. The great room features picture windows and two-story ceilings, creating a lovely spot to recline on the sofas or curl up beside the wood-burning fireplace in swivel glider La-Z-Boy chairs and stream movies on the TV.

The kitchen is open and elegant, offering stainless steel appliances, patterned tile backsplash, and a peninsula breakfast bar for six. There's an indoor dining room table for eight, as well as a gas grill, a table and chairs, and a chimenea for evenings spent outside on the patio.

The four bedrooms - all of which have flatscreen TVs - include a primary suite with a fireplace and a spa-like bathroom, a second bedroom with an en suite bathroom, a third guest room, and a chic bunk room that's wonderful for kids. Leave the day's clothes to spin in the private washer/dryer off the kitchen as you unwind in the outdoor hot tub or in the primary bathroom's deep soaking tub. Enjoy radiant floor heating and mini-split air-conditioning throughout, plus every room has its own temperature control. An electric vehicle charger adds convenience during your stay.

Eldorado Home
The house was clean and spacious but very close to the neighbors property. The location was convenient to Santa Fe. It would be better if they had an 11 am check out instead of 10 am. The rate was not inexpensive. The kitchen was pretty well stocked but did not have any napkins, saran wrap, tin foil or zip lock bags for food storage.

Wonderful house
Wonderful house with thoughtful high end touches to the property to include radiant floor heating, hot tub, and espresso machine. Beautiful interior design with comfortable meeting areas. Slight drive to town and grocery supplies lighting in neighborhood/driveway is poor but fine. Small leak near window in the back right bedroom after a severe thunderstorm but minimal and not recurrent Great bedrooms with a room that has six bunk beds ideal for families with several children Hot tub was wonderful. Bathrooms were fabulous and well stocked Great girls weekend location and layout

Managed by Vacasa, not insividual, but perfect, new home
Super nice place that is a recent build. Far out from the Santa Fe attractions, but gorgeous, with nice rooms for a family and a functioning jacuzzi. Kitchen is extremely well stocked. Property manager does not respond to communication so be aware of that, but we had no major problems while there. Also, they really want you to download the Vacasa app, which is separate from VRBO. It's because its a corporate owner, not an individual. Quiet neighborhood, big starry sky, spacious common area all made for a nice friends trip.

Beautiful sunsets
The adult females of my family meet once a year. This house had everything we needed. Spacious room with lots of seating and sleeping spaces. Lots to do, including corn hole and hit tubbing. Kitchen was well stocked. It was close enough to drive into Santa Fe, but far enough out to feel secluded and enjoy the mountain views.

Great Stay Just Outside of Santa Fe
This house is spacious, luxurious, nicely built, and loaded with everything you would need for your Santa Fe trip. My family of 5 booked this house in the El Dorado area for a quick weekend of skiing. This home could easily have accommodated another family. We visit Santa Fe quite often and have stayed all over the place: the Plaza, Four Seasons, other Home Rentals, etc. This was a nice getaway outside of town. It's about 15 minutes drive to the downtown area, and just under an hour to the ski resort. But the location was perfect for us to eat dinner in town on our way back from skiing and then relax back at the Ponderosa House. The house is stocked with games to have quality family time, the heated floor was a key touch, and the hot tub was the cherry on top. Although we didn't cook any meals, the kitchen is stocked better than most vacation rentals I've ever stayed in. We will definitely stay here again.

Perfect Family Get a Way Home n Santa Fe
Fabulous property. Perfect for a family gathering and the kitchen is very well stocked for cooking family meals. Loved the layout - the great room for entertaining & everyone had privacy off in their bedrooms as well. A couple of little ideas for the rental going forward: more water pressure in the showers, more dimmable lights in the main living space & more instruction regarding the heating: there are lots of thermostats & it’s a bit confusing. A stellar place to come & we will definitely be back! Many thanks.
