Relaxing, serene, quiet retreat

An amazing area close to town for our day trips throughout the week. The casita is comfortable and well equipped for cooking, everything we needed. In the evenings we enjoyed watching the bunnies from the patio! Lovely place you have and thank you for sharing with us.

Great getaway

The house was clean and comfortable, the property was secluded but a short drive from everything, and the host, Michelle, was on-site, lovely, and responsive. We've come to Santa Fe almost yearly since 1982, and Michelle's house beats a hotel any day. If you seek peace and quiet, this house is perfect for two.

Zen Retreat

This property is an excellent choice when visiting Santa Fe. The pictures tell the story. Large one bedroom casita - about 1000 feet. High end furnishings throughout. Fully stocked kitchen with induction stove, oven/boiler and microwave. Lots of natural light, with views of the surrounding property. Separate from the main house, it feels very private. Ten minutes to the Plaze, excellent hiking courses three minutes away. Amazing stars at night. And very quiet. Owner is very communicative. Highly recommended.

Cute 1 bedroom stay in the woods

Casita! I loved the location, knowing it was a 5 min drive from downtown. The space was great- although it’s definitely one bedroom which I felt was a little unclear. Had a bit of a musty smell and I wish there were window coverings in the bedroom, but overall great stay

Wonderful Property!

Michelle was a great communicator. This is a lovely casita, in the country but a short drive into town (and Ten Thousand Waves). Stylishly decorated with everything we needed for a week. There are trails straight from the door. We will be back.

Perfect!

This property sits in fabulous surroundings with lovely views. Michelle has decorated beautifully, has added many high end extra’s inside to make your stay wonderfully comfortable. She makes enjoying her cozy 'casita" easy. (linens, towels, blankets, coffee, toiletries/soaps and scents, great wine glasses, the list goes on) I cant say enough positive things about this property.

Exceptional Experience

I've been staying in vacation rentals for about 20 years and this property exceeds any other. Scrupulously clean, beautifully maintained and anything you need for your stay is there. And, Michelle, the property owner, was gracious and generous. I'd forgotten my phone charger and she loaned me one. Little details such as that made for a lovely stay. My only regret is that my vacation wasn't longer!

Very special place

The casita exceeded our expectations. Michelle’s attention to every single detail, which fused a unique and refined design sensibility with comfort created the perfect home away from home. The property is beautiful, quiet, and secluded while being only 10 minutes away from the center of Santa Fe. Amazing natural sites are only an hour or two drive away. We had a wonderful week here and hope to return. Michelle was responsive, helpful, and classy in the best sense of that word. Highly recommend.

A get away from Dallas

The Casita was a very warm and welcoming place. From the, “Welcome to the Casita”, hand written note, to the deer walking past the property in the early morning. This place is a 10 out of 10. It was clean, well maintained, the instruction manual was clear on what to do in all situations. The grocery stores and the downtown area were about 5-10 minutes away. The nights were quiet, safe and the open screened windows let in a welcomed cool breeze. Michelle was the perfect host for this VRBO. When we first got to the Casita, she greeted us and show us around. I thought that was very sweet of her. We took advantage of the nearby hiking trails and sightseeing in downtown Santa Fe. We had a fantastic time and will return to Santa Fe in the near future.

Slice of Santa Fe Heaven

This is a beautiful property with such a serene setting. The casita is beautifully appointed and exceptionally comfortable for a couple. The setting is truly quite private even though it sits next to the main house. The owners have provided many thoughtful touches, including robes, slippers, yoga mat and fully stocked coffee bar, your choice of Nespresso or traditional coffee. We enjoyed the peaceful, natural setting, watching birds, squirrels and chipmunks. Just a couple of miles out of the Plaza up the mountain road above. Very close to excellent hiking trails as well as Santa Fe Ski. We enjoyed cooking our meals in the efficient high end kitchen, eating on the patio when sunny and eating indoors in front of an amazing large picture window during the rain. The kitchen had everything we needed, including spices, oil, foil. Lovely stay...just perfect for my annual Santa Fe birthday. We hope to come again for a longer stay in the future.

Great house, great location and very friendly owner :)

This is my second time visiting this house, and I am in love with this house even more than my first visit due to various reasons. First of all, the house is really pretty. It is really modern designed house & interior with high-end appliances, and has everything that we needed. Secondly, the location for me is the right location, only 15 min to the Ski Santa Fe and 5 min to downtown Santa Fe for grocery shopping as well as the most famous restaurants , and most importantly probably 2 min ride to Thousand Wave where we enjoyed Japanese Spa as well as great Japanese foods. Thirdly, and one of the most important thing that I care the most is the hospitality of the owner. Michelle proactively reached out to us if we needed anything and actually waited us to say hello to us. She was very responsive and kind enough to accept some of my difficult requests, she is really awesome. Can't wait till my next visit!!

Zen in the Mountains

A lovely property with beautiful decor and great attention to detail. The casita was very private and very quiet. The bed was about the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in and showering in the skylit bathroom was a wonderful way to start the day. The casita was filled with fantastic artwork — I’d love to know the artists’ names. I highly recommend this property and we hope to stay again.

Truly a Retreat!

This place was beautiful and it was clear that someone had lived in the place as everything was very functional and comfortable including the giant soft couch in the living room, the long bench in the master bedroom for suitcases, spa robes in the closet, well-stocked kitchen, recycling receptacle, private outdoor sitting area, etc. Communication with the hosts was excellent and Michelle, her husband Alan, and the property manager Peter were all wonderful. The microwave mysteriously wasn't working and Alan was there that evening with a new one! We loved this place and probably will be back because of it!
