Wonderful place to stay

I stayed here for almost 2 weeks with my dog. The owner was wonderful and a great comfort to me when I unexpectedly experienced a heart attack. I found a park just a short walk down the road from the casita where I could walk my dog every evening, and there is also Monsignor Patrick Smith Park just a short drive away. Very close to Canyon Road and excellent restaurants. The casita itself was comfortable, especially the bed in the master bedroom!

Not exactly matches the online listing

My husband, our dog, and I stayed at Patricia's place for three nights. The house was very clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed the experience of staying in an adobe home. The location was perfect for us, as it was close to hiking spots like the beautiful Santa Fe National Forest and the scenic Dale Ball Trails. We also loved the proximity to the amazing Canyon Road art walks and the Santa Fe Downtown Plaza, all just a 10-minute drive away.However, the listing differed a bit from our expectations. For example, the drive to the Plaza wasn't 5 minutes as stated—it was actually around 10 minutes. The picture of the pond shown in the listing is located right in front of the property owner's walkway, and we didn't feel comfortable sitting there to enjoy the pond. The fenced area for the dog was in the back of the house, but there was no direct access from the house. We had to exit the house and open the gate to let our dog enjoy the space. Additionally, the backyard wasn't very private since there are many windows facing it from the owner's home.The kitchen was quite small, making it difficult to cook a full meal. Also, there was no electric kettle, even though it was listed in the amenities. The house didn't feel very private, as the kitchen had a glass door covered by a curtain, and we could hear the property owners clearly from the other side.Overall, while we had a pleasant stay, there were a few aspects of the property that didn't quite match our expectations.

Cozy casita

I love the koi pond, the entry was leveled a bit higher but we rented a small suv that was perfect, the bed was amazingly comfortable to sleep on. Everything was clean, close to everything. I would recommend this casita.

Great hike to Canyon Road

Clean, neat with laundry and a quiet location, but I recommend the owner have a welcome book to explain how things work in the unit. There was only directions to restaurants and shops. Also we hiked to Canyon road along the river path and the Plaza (2 miles one way) but had to figure out the directions ourselves.

Santa Fe stay

This is a comfortable property for two people. The location is secluded up in the canyon and easily accessible to canyon and river trails. It is only a mile walk to the Tea House and the art work on Canyon Road. The kitchen is tiny but that is a good excuse to sample the many fine dining experiences in town. Patricia is a welcoming and responsive hostess.

Great place with beautiful views

Very nice casita with everything we needed except a liquid measuring cup, lol! The bed in the main bedroom was a dream- like sleeping on a cloud. Beautiful view of the mountains just a short walk away. No lights in the neighborhood at night so driving back was a bit of a challenge in the evening, but we truly enjoyed our stay! My wife hopes that the fruit left on the ground is put to good use and not gone to waste. Would recommend! Dog friendly a plus.

Find another vrbo

This property has no place to relax and enjoy being away from home. The listing claimed that the property was close to the Santa Fe plaza so if you think that 2 miles is close, it is close. The access is via a washed-out dirt road. The small living room contains a bed and very large hassock. The couch is low and very uncomfortable. It is two unequal steps from the bedroom to the bathroom and the kitchen is extremely small (read no counterspace). There exist no instructions for anything within the property including the outside areas. Probably the minimum vrbo requirements are met but I would stay in a hotel room before booking this place again. The property manager answers questions promptly.

Charming Casita

This was a nice property in a nice part of town. Ten minutes from historic downtown. Property manager was prompt with any questions. Kitchen was virtually unusable because it was so very small. There is no prep area or place to put dishes once you wash them. There is a nice grill outside but again no room in the kitchenette to prep anything. The bed was nice and shower was good. Great for those who eat out.

Meh……a few problems but stay was acceptable.

We enjoyed our stay but there were a few things all three of us found off putting. The backyard space is shared (with property manager/owner). The backyard space and bbq needed cleaning when we arrived and the space was never cleaned (unless we cleaned it ourselves). The TV and cable in common area inside was complicated and there were no instructions (even tho all 3 of us are tech savvy) so we ended up streaming on one of our small computer screens in the evening. Finally, the kitchen is very small which still worked for us but we really limited our use bc it felt more comfortable and easier to go out. There was no dish rack to use when we washed dishes and there was a big leak under the kitchen sink that needed attention. All of these things made cooking meals even less appealing. The last negative thing i’ll say is the space out front near the pond is NOT shared space and leads directly to the property manager’s residence so we never felt comfortable using it. The pond and space outside were the main reasons we chose this property and frankly, we felt mislead because it was not what we had hoped. The best parts of the rental was there was ample parking, AC worked, it was cozy enough and we felt safe because the neighborhood was quiet and fairly proximal to everything we wanted.

Peaceful get away

I enjoyed a great week surrounded by quiet, peaceful nature but within a 5 min drive of town. Walks for the dog were a block over in a local part, in town along the river and up the street in local hiking trails. Bedroom was quiet, shower was roomy. Views of the blue western sky outside near a water feature. Enclosed outside dining area was great for some sun as well.
