Awesome stay at an awesome place in the desert

What a wonderful property to stay at! It's in a great location with easy access to hikes, shopping, restaurants, etc. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we extended our stay. You couldn't ask for a better host, either. Julia checked in to make sure everything was going ok and promptly answered any questions that we had. We have already booked our stay for next year.

We really enjoyed our time together in Las Cruces and this house helped make things possible. The location is close to shopping and services. We needed to go to the University and the Convention Center and found travel easy from our location. Thanks for keeping this property available!

Gorgeous home

This was the most equipped VRBO we have ever stayed at. We have used VRBO on several occasions. In Hawaii and Mexico also. It was in a great location. Very spacious. The little surprise they left was very appreciated. The goodies were yummy. All the little extra's that were available to use were so convenient.

Love my family!

We had a memorial for my sister who died in July. We had family attend from Albuquerque, Hot Springs AR, Buffalo NY, Marlow OK and Phoenix AZ. We enjoyed spending time together and had everyone for breakfast one morning. The property was spacious and allowed us to visit comfortably. The mattresses are wonderful. And the kitchen is large and well equipped. I highly recommend!

Prefect home for a wedding

First impression was prefect. Walked into a large clean spacious open concept living/ kitchen area. Plenty of seating and nicely decorated. Master suite is oversized to include the closet and bathroom. The bridesmaids used the master suite to get ready for the wedding and nobody felt crowded. Beds were comfortable as were the couches and chairs. Would stay in this home again.

Our family was blow away by this beautiful house. It exceeded all expectations and made our trip to Las Cruces even better. Our family consisted of 9 people. This house accommodated us perfectly, everyone had plenty of space. This house also came better equipped than most, kitchen was stocked with everything anyone would want or need. Each bathroom had shampoo, conditioner, lotion, body wash, etc. We loved our stay.

Spacious house that feels like home!

My family and I stayed here while visiting the White Sands National Park and the Carlsbad Caverns. It was the perfect retreat after long drives. Julia is an amazing host and makes you feel right at home! The house has everything you'd ever need- comfortable beds, a well stocked kitchen, and a massive master bath. We appreciated the multiple dining and living spaces and the boardgames. A real plus was being able to park in the garage. The house is located in a cul de sac in a safe and clean neighborhood with beautiful homes. If you have any doubts about booking this house, look no further, just do it! You'll have a great experience!

Beautiful house! Offers both an open space concept and private bedroom for personal space.

We rented the house for our daughters graduation from New Mexico State University. Our family slept comfortably and the owner graciously allowed for a small gathering after the graduation. We cooked, ate and enjoyed the dining area, media room and backyard. Everyone had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful, well stocked and the owner provided us with a welcoming gift. Very thoughtful. Owner was kind, understanding, patient and attentive to to my emails and phone calls. The house was close to the university , shopping and in a clean and safe neighborhood. I would highly recommend the house for stay in Las Cruces.

Wonderful stay in lovely Las Cruces!

From the moment we arrived, we fell in love with this expansive home. Its spacious living room and bedrooms and well-appointed kitchen made staying 'home' a true pleasure. The office made a perfect quiet place for sewing. The neighborhood was also quiet and just a short drive to shopping for groceries and exploring the many museums and parks of Las Cruces -- with one lovely community park just a few blocks away for our daily walk. We did have friends visit for 3 of the 6 weeks we stayed here; having three bathrooms gave them privacy and the beds were quite comfortable. My favorite sight was sunrise and sunset of the Organ Mountains, viewed from the dining room. Truly, we're looking forward to returning one day. Julia was an exceptional host!

This is a fabulous house for a multi-generation stay. There is a lot of space to gather and also for privacy. We enjoyed the indoor and outdoor cooking and eating spaces. We had our infant granddaughter, our daughters, and friends from New Mexico stay during our visit. The house layout was my favorite part. We celebrated with our NMSU graduate in a great, comfortable, family space. We were there for a week and the laundry was great. We used the kitchen a lot. The grill on the back patio was an added feature that took some of the heat from cooking outdoors. The desert southwest is a place where lunch is best in the air conditioning, but morning coffee and evening cocktails are great on the patio. It felt like home.

About the host

Hosted by Julia Francis

Host profile image
We purchased this beautiful home in 2017 to have a place in Las Cruces to come to for visiting with family and vacations. Originally from the area, we are excited to get back when we can and share our home with others.

Why they chose this property

We chose this house because it has the unique feature of being so close to all that Las Cruces has to offer while offering a large floor plan for large familes to stay and not feel crowded.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location! In the middle of everything, yet a quiet and safe neighborhood filled with walking trails and close to shopping, NMSU and the mountains.
