Beautiful serene location with Mountain View’s …

The house was like a spanish villa … it was clean and had everything…we had 35 family members all together . The beds were comfortable and lovely sheets so soft.. gas fire stoves in most all of the rooms . A library that was so amazzing and huuuge . Words cannot describe the magnitude of the library , there were 2 .. so many bedrooms and bathrooms. There was snow but the extra large house was soo warm…we brought all our food and the kitchen had everything you could ever possibly need … we all enjoyed our stay .. and the snow cap mountain peaks ! The furniture was leather and inviting in the huge upstairs living room . Very pleasant stay … The Mrs..:)

Team Retreat Success!

We had an amazing time at this property. There were 35 of us that stayed here, comfortably, I might add! Our team is closer than most corporate set-ups so the main house was perfect for our needs. The kitchen was FANTASTIC and we loved, loved, LOVED the library for our all staff meetings. The property managers are a little more hands on/present than we've been used to in the past, but they did their best to stay unobtrusive, which was appreciated. I cannot recommend this place enough! We sincerely cannot wait to come back here!

Family Christmas Gathering

Every other year our 26 membered family gather for Christmas. We were thrilled when we found a place that could accommodate everyone comfortably. Truchas Peak Place did not disappoint. The bedrooms were large and spacious. The beds were comfortable. The house was clean, warm and cozy, and heat could be adjusted. The large library was beautiful and the space perfect. Despite being a large group everyone had a quiet place to retreat to. Michael, our guest liaison, was visible and helpful. We had a fantastic time! My only suggestion would be ice maker and water purifier in kitchen. Ability to recycle should be available on site. Thank you!!!

Base for sightseeing and the balloon festival

For a gathering of friends and family this was ideal. Everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. We cooked our own meals in a well-furnished kitchen and caught up with each other in both the spacious dining room and fab library.

Our own "winter wonderland"!

Truchas easily accomodated our large family to celebrate the Christmas Holiday! Rooms for large family gatherings but also room/s to withdraw to your own space. Easy access for outside of the property activities, Yet peaceful and secluded enough for our own private retreat! Management very helpful with local information and direction. Spacious, relaxing, very clean, beautiful views and beautiful property. Highly recommended!!

Excellent place for a group of about 15

This facility is gorgeous and the views, especially at sunset and sunrise, can't be beat anywhere. The office staff are always helpful, the room s are beautiful and well designed, the beds comfortable and bedding changed weekly. The photos on the website represent it well. The library is so large that books are filed by Dewey Decimal and should not be returned by readers, like in a good institutional library. Kitchen is very well equipped with two modern refrigerators and an AGA stover with 4 different ovens and 4-5 stovetop burners. Washers and driers are provided. Of course, you need to bring your own food, so shop in Santa Fe before you arrive!

2009 Winter Stay

This place was awesome to stay at. 3 families went in together and we all had a place to lay our head. It was very clean. The staff was extremely kind and informative. We cooked our own meals and their kitchen had everything we needed. The kids walked right out and played in the snow... the snow was beautiful! Skiing at Sipapu was a fantastic experience because the slopes were easy for the kids to learn on. The sledding in Sipapu was tons of fun too. Big cities were not too far away for when we needed something from Super Wal-Mart. I would highly recommend it!
