Amazing views and great gathering places

We recently spent 5 days with a group of 4 couples in this fantastic property. The views are unparalleled and home is fantastic. There are 4 great indoor gathering places and 3 outdoor areas. There is a fun gameroom with a movie theater size screen that we could watch the nba playoffs and movies. Each bedroom was comfortable and well sized and there are 4 full baths to complement the bedroom count and even a half bath. The kitchen is fantastic and spacious with enough room for us to cook together. We had a terrific time - Thank you!!!

Incredible property for relaxing stay

Wonderful - pictures don’t do it justice! A kitchen that had everything you needed (even had all drawers and shelves labeled!), beautiful main living room with incredible picture window overlooking gorgeous mountain vista, and a huge game room with huge “theater style” big screen TV, plus game table, pool/ping pong table. Bedrooms and bathrooms all very comfortable (2 en suite and 2 easy to share full bathrooms, and one 1/2 bath). Great leather sofas and chairs in all the living spaces, with cozy throw blankets on every furniture piece. The hosts, Camilla and Jim, were very responsive to any communications we sent. Just a wonderful place I’d definitely visit again!

Fantastic property great for multi generational families and a large group.

We were very pleased with the condition and amenities at this property. It was exactly as described, plus plus. We enjoyed our five day stay. It was very private very quiet. We did make one phone call to the local property manager for a quick question and he was immediately available. The property was beautifully maintained and decorated for Christmas, which was more than we expected. We have very high praise for every aspect of this beautiful property

Perfect for Christmas!

Our group of nine had a wonderful stay over the 2024 Christmas holiday! The house was beautiful and more than accommodated our family. The teens were thrilled with the game room and the adults were happy too since everyone was entertained! We would happily stay here again. Also, the hosts decorated for Christmas and it was lovely.

Fabulous stay in Santa Fe

One of our grown sons works in hospitality in Santa Fe and couldn’t get home for Thanksgiving, so we all flew out to Santa Fe so we could be together. The house was spectacular. It was so well appointed and had everything we could have possibly needed or wanted. The icing on the cake was the terrific game room with the large projection tv and comfy couches where we were all able to hang out, watch the football games and enjoy each others company. I can’t recommend this property and the management highly enough!

Fantastic home

This place more than surpassed our greatest expectations. We are nine girlfriends from high school celebrating more than 50 years of friendship. This place was a magical place to do just that. The location was phenomenal, but more than that the house had a very warm and special feeling. Lots of places to hang out and just enjoy the beautiful views. The sunsets were amazing. The hosts were always available as needed. Kitchen was well stocked and it was very organized and clean. It was such a lovely place to just be together.

Santa Fe Girls Trip

The house was fabulous. Especially enjoyed the game room and outdoor living room. Everything was comfortable and clean. We thought we would be able to walk to town as it's only about a mile away but the street was like a highway and we didnt feel safe to walk along so we Ubered everywhere.We had a minor issue and both the property manager and owner showed up at the house within 10 minutes to resolve.

Fantastic House and Visit

The house was excellent, just as beautiful as the pictures. We enjoyed all the lovely outdoor spaces, that amazing view from the picture window and loads of fun in the game room. There was plenty of room for all 8 of us. The location is excellent, we enjoyed downtown Santa Fe, the nearby Dale Ball trails and many drives north to explore Jemez range, Ghost Ranch, Taos and other destinations. New Mexico is amazing.

Great for our family

We celebrated my mother-in-laws birthday at Kokopelli and she loved it. It's a beautiful property with lots of wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces to hang out, visit, eat, etc. There was lots of sleeping space for family, but keep in mind that the Kiva bedroom is a pass through room to the game room, so that might be a consideration for who sleeps there. The huge game room with attached patio was a great place for meals, games and watching the game on the huge screen. The location was ideal for us as it's close to town, but also very private with beautiful views.

The Best Rental for all times

This property is beautiful and maintained perfectly. It is the cleanest property I have ever stayed at inside and out. We really enjoyed the comfortable beds, the living spaces and the outdoor areas. One side is perfect for sunset viewing with outdoor gas fire pit and the other for eating and relaxing. If you play a musical instrument, you’ll particularly enjoy the piano, guitars, and box drum. We had a two year-old with us and we watch him carefully anyway, there are some hard steps inside the house that you wouldn’t want a toddler to fall on. The outdoor porch in the back is a recent addition and game room is a teenager dream come true which includes a giant screen projection TV, ping-pong table, pool table, darts, and indoor shuffleboard. It has full wall windows with sliding glass doors complete with screens and a fully stock kitchen. I can’t say enough that is positive about this rental, so if you can afford this go for it. It was a pleasure to come home from the city after the heat, pollen and congestion to this close oasis.

Beautiful house, perfect location

The house was just perfect for our family reunion. Lots of room inside, with many options for large and small groups. The kitchen had everything we needed. The setting can't be beat. The house is on a large property, with gorgeous views of Santa Fe and beyond, yet it's just minutes away from the Plaza. Highly recommended.

Perfect Family Getaway - Amazing Game Room

What a wonderful stay at Kokopelli! My husband and I met up with our son, daughter and grand babies. ❤️ The house was absolutely wonderful from the extra large screen tv, ping pong, outside gas fire seating areas, piano and guitars for the musicians in your family to a wide assortment of any and all condiments necessary to make your stay comfortable. Because of the little ones, we spent most of our time in the game room. Can’t thank the owners enough for sharing their beautiful home with us. Blessings to you all! ❤️

Excellent home for family gathering with senior adults

We needed a 5 bedroom home with multiple large areas for dining and conversation. This home fit the bill. It also had gorgeous sunset views. The kitchen was well equipped. The indoor and outdoor seating was attractive and comfortable on couches. The beds in the bedroom wing were too soft for several of our guests. Otherwise, the home was perfect for our family reunion. Thank you so much!

Top Notch

Beautiful home and property. Expansive layout makes it very comfortable for hosting 7 adults (the size of our party). A house so nice that the desire to leave the property and see Santa Fe was fairly low. Loved all of the outdoor spaces. Close to great hiking. Also, the kitchen was one of the best stocked kitchens I've stayed in. We like to cook and the kitchen was great for that. All in all, a fabulous house.

Peaceful, perfect retreat

Kokopelli house is wonderful - we enjoyed using the guitar and piano, and the house is large and comfortable for many guests. It is ideally located with respect to the Santa Fe Opera (less than 10 minutes drive, and avoiding the freeway) and also convenient to downtown & biking in the hills. We hope to return someday!

Perfect Santa Fe location, ideal for family gathering

This house comfortably accommodates up to 8 people for sleeping, but the extensive indoor and outdoor seating and recreational areas make it an ideal spot to share meals and games with many more. I had rented three large homes to accommodate my family, but only five of us stayed at kokapelli; having said that, this was the house served best as a gathering spot for our group, which included children, gen-exers and Seniors . Great location, comfortable seating, thoughtfully selected games, music and Média options .

Santa Fe May Trip

Four couples stayed at this property for a week in May. We all enjoyed the home. The views were exceptional as was the location. There is plenty of room to spread out through out the home My only recommendations would be a few more towels in each bathroom and a small trash can in the bathroom/laundry room. I would not hesitate to recommend this home. I will stay here again when I return to Santa Fe.

About the host

Hosted by Camelia & Jim Buchanan

Host profile image
Camelia and I bought Kokopelli Santa Fe in 2017. We are from the Dallas Ft. Worth area. I'm in the technology business and Cam works in the dental field. We both wanted a vacation home we could enjoy away from all the normal pressures of life. Kokopelli is an amazing place to do just that. We've spent a lot of time building the game room with wonderful amenities, new HVAC was installed in 2018. The master bathroom and master bedroom are brand new.

Why they chose this property

This property was previously owned by an Emmy Award winning musician that spent his time here in Santa Fe while he wrote and composed. The property sits above Santa Fe and has amazing views from all sides. Kokopelli Santa Fe is conveniently located to everything. We've invested in the home to create a comfortable and beautiful place to visit.

What makes this property unique

Kokopelli Santa Fe is a one story ranch style home on 2.25 acres. The home has three living areas (two with fireplaces), and amazon echos with unlimited prime music. The home also comes with a karaoke machine, outdoor table & firepit. The home is well appointed, fully stocked with many unique features.
