Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
Experience the splendor of the New Mexico countryside during your stay in our beautiful adobe casita. Located on a historic property, 35 minutes North of Santa Fe, in the village of Chimayo. The casita features hand plastered mud walls, soaring ceilings, luxury linens, large picture windows & private decks, in-room coffee maker, small fridge & microwave. Start your day with coffee next to the bubbling pond and end your adventures with a cocktail, taking in an epic sunset in the apple orchard.

The space
There are two attached private "casitas". They each have their own parking spaces, entrances, and decks. There is Air Conditioning to keep you cool in the warm summer months and radiant heat in the winter. The comfy queen size bed is made with 100% cotton luxury linens and down comforters.
The mini kitchen is equipped with poor over coffee, tea, hot chocolate, creamer, a microwave, mini fridge, wine and drinking glasses.

Our location is a great launch point to easily get to many Northern New Mexico attractions. We are walking distance to world famous Ortegas Weaving, Santuario de Chimayo- with it's healing earth- boasts the largest yearly pilgrimage in North America, and Rancho de Chimayo restaurant~margaritas, chips and guacamole anyone!
Keep in mind we are in the country and there are no city amenities, so gas up before you get here and grab whatever you need from the market.

The property is a true hidden gem, a New Mexico treasure, rich with history. We are located on the historic Plaza del Cerro, which dates back to the mid-1700's. The main building spans the south side of the plaza. Once the town square, it housed the post office and mercantile store. We have gone to great lengths, over 30 plus years, to lovingly restore the building and bring the property back to life. Provided in each room is "Sabino's Map", a terrific book about the old plaza, including historic photographs. We are very pleased to be able to share this special place with you and hope you deeply enjoy your stay.

Guest access
During your stay, you will have access to the entire four acre property, including the pond and apple orchard. Upon request, we are happy to provide wood for a bonfire in the fire pit. We have ample parking and can easily accommodate touring vehicles. Safely store bikes, ski equipment, and camping gear on the premises during your excursions.

Other things to note
Sharing the property are three friendly dogs and roaming cats, a full time renter, and myself, the owner operator. Feel free to say Hi if you see us.
There may be other guests staying in one of our other short term rentals while you are here, we ask that you be respectful of their time here.
