About this property

Rustic Farmhouse Style Casita Retreat on Horse Property

Our rustic farmy little casita (approx. 180 sq. ft) boasts a custom build interior with brand new everything inside. Super cozy and comfy! Fairly forewarned, the shower is small. It is tiled, has a rain-head and on demand hot water but it is small. Most guests love the property so much they don’t mind.

We are located on 18 acres with horses and hiking trails, it’s perfect for quiet getaways, travelers passing through, artistic exhale and of course tourists wanting to take in the many attractions nearby. An awesome place for a recharge! We enjoy offering a variety of meal options as well as on the ground horse experiences tailored to your abilities and desire.
The casita is stocked with complimentary coffee, tea, hot chocolate and drinks. We are within ½ hour from Ruidoso’s many attractions, Old Lincoln’s historic sites, beautiful hiking spots or simply stay on property to revive and restore.

Quiet, relaxing, valley stay

Amazing stay in the Hondo valley. Quick overnight stop but enjoyed quick hike behind property, meeting the animals, wonderful views of the valley. The small cottage was perfect size for 2 people with all the amenities we needed for our stay. Look forward to staying again on my next trip to Ruidoso!

The casita was cozy and super clean. The hostess thought of everything and even got us half and half. My husband and I enjoyed the peace and quiet of the beautiful scenery of Hondo from the patio chairs outside.

Home away from home

Great place, Melissa is a wonderful host. Beautiful scenery, and meeting the horse, dogs and Melli on the property were highlights. The casita is perfect, and really feels like a home away from home. I enjoyed my stay here and will be coming back.

Great Place to Stay

If you are looking for a nice little get away this is the perfect little place. The place is cozy with a nice view. My favorite part was being around the animals on the property. There are 3 horses, one donkey and 3 dogs. Olivia
