From the moment we were pleasantly greeted to the very last moment , we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at our little Casita!! Plenty of room,all the amenities needed and even electric blankets! Easy access, plenty of parking and very comfortable furniture! We will be back to Silver City in the future and have found our place to stay for sure!!
Our stay was outstanding. Weather was perfect, the property is exceptional and the host is extremely hospitable! Will entertain spending another vacation there.
Loved this place. It was close enough to Silver City to buy groceries and whatever else we needed but far enough away where we couldn’t hear the traffic. Plus there was all kind of wildlife.
We had a very peaceful & restful time here in a very comfortable Caseda. So enjoyed watching the quail family, bunny, dear & hummingbirds. The host was very friendly & took care of all our needs. A very nice place to stay near Silver City. D & J Wilson
The Casita is amazing and has everything you need. It's close to the main downtown area but also far enough away from the hustle and bustle. Lots of parks and hiking areas near by and also not too far of a drive to some New Mexico recreational areas.The outside area is great to relax and watch all the wildlife that comes through the area.
Lovely host, lovely Casita, in a beautiful, tranquil setting.It's a great getaway from the hustle and bustle and the heat of the city.We did very little but thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.Thank you Cherie, you are a champ!Barbara & Rex
We enjoyed the diversity of plants and animals surrounding our clean and well appointed casita. Also were able to access Pinos Altos and Silver City with ease. We were able to return to the lovely casita after hiking and enjoying what we had planned to see. It was a truly relaxing and much appreciated location. Our host was helpful and available if we needed anything. We would definately stay again!

Thanks Tanya and Kelly! It was a pleasure hosting you all and hope you'll come back again sometime...

The Adobe Casita was absolutely the perfect choice for a relaxing trip. Coffee on the porch each morning while watching the quail and hummingbirds started us off. Our host, Cherie, was one of the best we've had. Her advise concerning the area helped us so much . It's like we've been friends forever.

Thanks, Jayma! It was fun getting to know you all. Thanks for leaving everything so neat and orderly. Safe travels home...
Very pleasant, accommodating, excellent communication.
Cherie is a very gracious host. The property is fairly secluded, no road noise. Pleasant place to relax and enjoy the scenery. Cherie was extremely accommodating with my situation of uncertainty for length of stay. Communication was above and beyond. Absolutely will be staying here again.

Thanks, Eric! It was nice having you guys stay with me. Too bad the weather didn't help with your outdoor activities! Thanks for leaving everything so neat and clean...
Cherie made us feel welcomed and comfortable for our 3 night stay in Silver City. The casita was spacious, quiet, cool, and was the absolute perfect place for us to relax and enjoy our vacation. My husband enjoyed watching the Gambel quail running around the property. If we are back in Silver....we will look to stay here. Thanks Cherie for your hospitality!
Cherie's adobe casita makes for an ideal writer's lair. While writing, whether inside or on the front porch, we were serenaded by Gamel's quail. While only a short drive from Silver City, it felt like we were way out in the country. Highly recommended!

Mike and Wayne were wonderful guests. Friendly and fun to have around and left my casita in great shape. We traded book writing and collecting stories and books! Would love to host them, or them with their wives, next time!
We loved our week at Cherie's Casita.
Quails and great horned owl calling in the evening and many songbirds heard along the creek made for a delightful experience. It was most enjoyable to become acquainted with Cherie and see her fascinating collection of books.
The house was very comfortable and the kitchen provided everything we needed to prepare our meals.
We are looking forward to a return visit and sitting out on the wraparound porch enjoying the sights and sounds with morning coffee.

Thank you for your kind review! Looking forward to your next visit. Have a great summer...
This is a lovely property with all the comforts of home. Cherie is a thoughtful host and owner. She had just about anything you could need but forgot to bring with you. That's not just hospitality but good planning. We left a few goodies behind to add to what's in the cupboard.
There are many things we liked about the Adobe Casita, Gram's House. One of the best, though, was sitting outside and watching the sun come up. Then at the end of the day watching the sun go down and the stars come out.
We made lovely memories and added to a lifetime of stories to tell. We look forward to our next trip and saying hello again to Cherie.
Thanks from Peter and Judy
We have many reasons why our stay at Cherie’s casita was outstanding, starting with the host, who was warm, gracious and generous.
Our cozy, pleasant ‘home-away-from-home’ was spotless, comfortable and equipped with everything to make us feel welcome. The quiet, bucolic setting perfectly suited our desire (and need) to relax, watch an amusing array of animals and birds and at night, stargaze. When we didn’t feel like driving the short distance to the park for hiking, we just stepped outside our door and walked around the large property. The icing on the cake that made us feel especially privileged was that Cherie found time to show us around her bookshop, High-Lonesome Books. It’s filled with hard-to-find Western Americana and Outdoors treasures. We were on a road trip and had to move on after a few days but can’t wait to return for a longer visit! Ruth & Burt
Our second stay at this property. Couldn’t have asked for better experience. Will definitely visit again. The property owner friendly and attentive to our stay. Cozy and relaxing environment with all amenities provided.
We so enjoyed the casita with deer coming thru to visit and birds serenading! Our host was wonderful and quick to respond to requests. It’s well appointed and met our needs for the entire month. Look forward to returning.
