About this property

Private, Quiet Country home just 20 minutes from Santa Fe.

Enjoy the quiet solitude of a rural retreat just a short drive to Santa Fe. Located on a private road on 7.5 acres you can relax by the fireplace in the comfortable living room or under the stars on the private patio. One bedroom sleeps two and a loft with mountain views sleeps additional 2 or more.
I built the house myself which is adjacent to my main house. Watch the sun rise and set from the adobe meditation tower. Have a dinner party with large dining table and full kitchen. Sink into the goose down couch and rest easy. Santa Fe Style.

Perfect for a Scenic Retreat

This location, the hosts, and the country home could not have been better. Perfect for a quiet getaway, had everything I needed and then some, and close (but not too close) to all that I wanted to see and do. HIGHLY recommend.

Quiet & peacful

Definitely enjoyed our stay! Had a lot of fun with my family. Nice little place to stay, plenty of space since there were 6 of us. Didn't have signal a lot of the time but gave us a chance to disconnect from the phones for a bit. Overall a nice place to stay, very quiet and peaceful.

Perfect place to stay on your trip to Santa Fe and surrounding areas.

Loved the house and meditation tower! Beautiful views and surroundings. Close enough to Santa Fe to make quick commute and secluded enough to enjoy the beauty and quiet around you. Highly recommended!

Peaceful and scenic getaway

The house was amazing and very spacious. The loft was super fun with a great ladder leading up to it. The location was so peaceful and perfect for star gazing. We loved the meditation tower and wish we could have stayed much longer!

Excellent spot to stay!

This place was great. Our boys loved the little loft and playing outside. Very beautiful landscape. The House is far enough away from everything but close enough to not be a hassle to go into town. The outside could use a little cleaning up but It is a great spot.

Peaceful secluded cabin wonderfully funished

Tom's cabin has everything a family needs to relax and stay for a few days. We choose this as a place to decompress after a hectic Spring Break ski trip to Colorado. It was the perfect stop-over point for our drive back to Texas. It is only a short drive into Santa Fe, and it was nice to come back here and look at the brilliant night sky and listen to the coyotes.

Wonderful place to stay

Tom's rental was so quiet and clean and he provided absolutely everything we might need - including condiments and salad dressing! It was out in the country but easy to get to and not far from Santa Fe. The one time we had a question (because we couldn't figure something out) he responded right away. Easiest and most beautiful place I've ever stayed.

Quiet and peaceful

My husband and I came to Santa Fe area to get away and wanted to stay in the country instead of in town. This was perfect for us. We had quiet evenings by the fire. But it is still close to restaurants and town. Stars at nights were amazing. The price is great and plenty of space.

If you want peace and quiet, cozy ,homey place, well equipped , great host.THIS IS THE PLACE! Great place to watch the eclipse on your private patio. Everything you need is there. Now if you are looking for 5 star accommodations, and are picky about your thread count,go find a hotel in SF. This place feels like home! Wonderful

Santa Fe Retreat

Easy to get anywhere in Santa Fe and surrounding area. A great place to stay for quiet and to enjoy the beauty of the area. It was wonderful staying in an area where houses are spaced out and almost no traffic on the road. The teens loved the loft; it was their own private vacation spot. Patio is a great place to sit in the morning and evening. The kitchen really is equipped with everything you need, and the grilll works well. Tom is an attentive host.

It was a wonderful,magical space, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Hearing the coyotes at night,having coffee in the meditation tower watching the sun rise was beautiful. Tom was very respectful of our space, a lovely warm hearted man. I would certainly return

Excellent. Just what I wanted. Great Value

I was extremely pleased with this experience. The house was clean, neat and well maintained. I wanted the desert living experience without being too far from Santa Fe. Quiet, peaceful. The owners were excellent communicators and there were no problems. Very spacious. A good value for the price. Would stay again.

great place to chill

Enjoyed this very much. Although a little far out of town for quick runs in, that actually helped us organize our daily planning. And we enjoyed the great quiet of the rural setting. All was great. Small tip: Please ensure that cabin has at least a starter supply of salt, pepper, olive oil, etc.

About the host

Hosted by Thomas Berkes

Host profile image
I built my home and have enjoyed Santa Fe country living for many years. Traveling, sailing, cooking playing music are a few of my interests.

Why they chose this property

The casita was originally built as a music studio, then having rented it for a few years long term I wanted visitors to get the country experience while visiting Santa Fe.

What makes this property unique

Peaceful with a tower for meditation, prayer or just enjoying the view.
