Best Hideaway in the Mountains

My mom has a house nearby but we needed more room for the adult kids and stayed at this listing nearby and it was beyond wonderful. So clean, and has everything helpfully labeled for easily finding things in the kitchen, we were able to make full family meals. The views are unbeatable and the air hockey table and games in the closet made for some fun nights with the family. Would love to stay again!

Tranquility with a view

House was situated overlooking the east mountains, and it could not have been better appointed, comfortable or fabulous! The only sounds we heard were the occasional rooster or horse far off in the distance. No highway noise, no sirens, very few airplanes. It is incredibly peaceful. There is a lot of room inside and out and if the weather was warmer we would have spent all night outside stargazing! Would recommend it to anyone needing to get away from it all!

August visit

We really enjoyed our stay here. It is hands down the best equipped home we've visited. Evenings and mornings on the back porch made the start and end of our days here special. Yes, we'd book again.

Lots of Room and Beautiful

This house has space to spare and has everything you need, just like being at home. The host's extra touches made the stay extra special. The location is quiet and private and the views are beautiful. The road is narrow and gravelly on the final stretch to the house, but it is worth the drive into the location.

Very nice place, rough roads surrounding. Owner and caretakers were very helpful. Living room furniture is different and that was disappointing as new couch was not Comfortable. Fireplace and pellet heater were not working but had other source of heat once were were assisted by caretaker.

So accomodating!

The innkeeper lives across the street. A very pleasant couple that made themselves available. We actually didnt need to call them as this place has every imaginable necessity and amenity. A beautiful view from the patio was enjoyed by all. Would return for sure.

Located just right

We were in the area for a reunion of sorts. The host's house and a nice restaurant we used were just a few miles away. This was far more convenient than commuting back and forth from Abq. The house was darling. 3 bedrooms, a big couch at the TV and kitchen/dining area all worked very well. It's a bit of a zig and a zag or 2 to work through the neighborhood, but everyone found it via Google maps.

Wonderful place!

We were not expecting such a welcoming space with wonderful, friendly property managers. The view was peaceful and beautiful. The property managers really set up the place to be very welcoming and cozy. The game room was great with an air hockey table. They had puzzles, board games and dvds providing many ways to to hangout and just relax. If we’re ever out this way again, we would definitely stay here again! Thanks again for everything!

Great Stay!

We really enjoyed the house. The view of the mountains were beautiful, we enjoyed playing air hockey, and the house was well stocked. The people who look over the house were just across the street so it made us feel better they were so close in case we needed anything. If we’re ever back in the area we will for sure stay here again! It was a warm and cozy place to stay!

Home was perfect for our needs, both size and location. Was exactly as depicted online, had all amenities we needed along with a plate of wonderful baked goodies for breakfast the first morning. And you just cannot get enough of the mountain views. Owners are very responsive and helpful. Definitely recommend this property!

Great Place to stay.

The house is very well appointed. Everything you may need is there and then some. The view from the deck is awesome. The caretakes, who are very nice, live close bye and if there are any problems they are right there to help you however we had no problems. Everything about this house is first rate and I would highly recommend it.

East Mountain

The Home was great! The caretaker was close by, very helpful-even shoveled the snow off the driveway. Beautiful view especially with the snow. ❄️ It is a winding/hilly road to reach your destination but it was worth it!

Quiet Mountain Retreat

Spacious home tucked away up in the mountains, I would recommend this vacation getaway. The owners provide just about everything you need, which is not always the case with other homes I've stayed in. It's a bit out of the way with lots of small windy roads leading you there, but that's exactly what we were looking for. There was a little snag with getting the check-in details in advance, but the owner was incredibly responsive, and everything was taken care of in time for arrival. I would definitely stay here again.
