This little historic home was built just before the turn of the century and was one of the early homes in Raton. If you have a larger group please consider booking the Casita and/ or the Gallery House as well! They sit right next door and are equally cool spots!
Thoughtfully updated to maintain its historic charm and add modern amenities. We've added fiber-optic wifi, mini split heat, and air, recessed LED lighting, a 5-burner gas range with oven, flat screen smart TV, and lots of original art!

The space
The Carriage house is a quaint little brick cottage built in the late 1800’s. It has been thoroughly renovated with updated appliances, furniture and finishes. Thoughtfully updated to maintain its historic charm and add modern amenities. We've added fiber-optic wifi, mini split heat, and air, recessed LED lighting, a 5-burner gas range with oven, flat screen smart TV, and lots of original art!

It is still an old home! It squeaks, makes noises, doesn’t have perfectly plumb and level walls or floors. It’s small, it is also pretty amazing that it is still liveable 140 years after it was built.

Guest access
You will have private access to the entire 2 level home. There is a large grass yard that you are welcome to use and hang out in as well as a private patio with table and chairs for 4. We recently added a Blackstone flat top barbq grill that is also available for guest use!
