The Perfect Place to Stay in Santa Fe!!
This house more than met our expectations! The house itself is spacious, gorgeously furnished, and completely private. When sitting on the lovely back patio, you see nothing around you but mountains. The feeling is a lot like having Santa Fe all to yourself. The landscaping is so well done! Aspens, flowering gardens and fruit trees surround the house. Still, you are just minutes from anything you would want to see in Santa Fe. The master bedroom is large and surrounded with patios and gardens just out the glass doors. There are two other smaller bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, great air conditioning, several fireplaces, chef's kitchen, and spacious living areas. We loved this house! We took our large golden retriever along, and he was perfectly at home. A fenced in back yard made traveling with a pet a very pleasant experience! We also appreciated that the owners went out of their way to make sure we had everything we would need for the week we were there. In summary--just a gorgeous home that looks even better than the pictures. Next time we visit Santa Fe, this is where we will want to stay.

Dog friendly slice of heaven!
Great property just outside of the Downtown/Plaza area. Quick and easy access both from the interstate and into the heart of Santa Fe. We enjoyed many aspects of the home, including the dog-friendly yard and the three on-suite bedrooms, but the kitchen was the standout! All of my group were professional wine/food folk and they wanted for nothing. We’ll be back for sure! Thanks again to the hosts… it was a wonderful weekend getaway!

We have rented several properties in Santa Fe over the years, and this is by far the best. The location cannot be beat; privacy, view and proximity to town. The house is nicely laid out, and the large patio is fabulous. For the meals that we ate at the house, we always ate outside. The owners are exceptional. If we had to narrow down our favorite restaurants to just two, we would pick Clafoutis and Restaurant Martin. Hiking the close trail at Sun Mountain was a bonus. We hope to return.

Wonderful home!
Often the posted pictures oversell the home, but in this case, the home and furnishings far surpassed our expectations!! This home was really really lovely! and so well appointed! It was also extremely spacious - the rooms themselves were large, open and airy (and yet amazingly cozy and comfortable) and the spread out nature of the layout was perfect for the five of us (our daughter and son and his fiancée were with us) as it provided us with 3 totally private bedrooms each with their own bathroom, two different office spaces and multiple and abundant areas, both large and small and inside and outside, for congregating, entertaining and relaxing, We were there for almost two weeks and never found a thing to complain about - the house was equipped with everything we needed/wanted and more and the owners were truly “hosts“, so gracious and accommodating. We definitely recommend this beautiful home.
