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.

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.

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.

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

A Diamond In the Ruff!

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

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.

Charming house in a peaceful relaxing setting

Had a wonderful time. The house was perfect, and the setting was very relaxing. We were close to Santa Fe and other sites to see, but yet far away enough to escape the hustle and bustle. Location was convenient to not only visit Santa Fe, but also Albuquerque and Taos, and many other sites in the area... great central location. The house itself was all that we could've asked for. Relaxed outside on the patio morning and evening. Loved watching the sunset from the meditation tower. Would definitely stay here again, house clean and well-maintained.

Perfect little getaway

This place was perfect for our family of four. My kids (ages 9 and 13) loved the loft, and spent most of their time hiding out up there! Great place to relax and escape from the hustle and bustle of the city at the end of a busy day. Everything was clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed to make a few meals in the evenings. The meditation tower is awesome, and I greatly enjoyed starting every morning out there, watching the sun rise. We look forward to returning as soon as we possibly can.

We had the BEST Christmas!

All my husband & I wanted to give our kids for Christmas was a chance to see snow & boy did we get it! We surprised them with a trip to Santa Fe & stayed at Tom's Guest House. We could not have asked for a more perfect place to stay. It's away from the hustle & bustle of the city, but close enough to go in to enjoy the lovely town of Santa Fe and the awesome sledding at The Hyde Memorial State Park! Little did we know we would encounter a blizzard on our stay & be snowed in for 2 days but thanks to the house having everything we needed, PLENTY of firewood & awesome acreage around the house to play in, we were perfectly happy staying in! The cozy fireplace & mantle made for a perfect place to hang our stockings & Tom was so nice to leave some decorations for us to decorate our little tree. He even left a little nativity scene that my kids loved stetting up. Santa found us all the way in Santa Fe & we couldn't have asked for a better Christmas! Thank you Tom for sharing your little piece of heaven with us!!

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.

Peaceful retreat

This is the second time we have been here and we love it. So peaceful out in the country, so relaxing. And yet convenient for day trips to Santa Fe, Albuquerque, and even Taos. We loved having our morning coffee out on the patio with the refreshing views... great way to start the day. Loved the meditation tower... great sunsets and views in all directions. We will be back.

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.

Great desert location

Easy access to Santa Fe, while still being truly in the desert. The loft was great for my partner and I, as we like a firm bed, and the thin cushions worked out well. Everyone in our group loved hearing the wildlife each morning!

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.

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.
