Love Shack Cozy Corrales Country Getaway
The Love Shack will accommodate two adults comfortably. We have one queen size automatically adjustable bed with a memory foam mattress. We also provide a heated mattress pad! There is a small futon couch to enjoy the view of the patio through the double French doors. This is a studio with free WiFi, SmartTV, Alexa device, device charging station, Netflix app, Pandora app, YouTubeTV, Bluetooth speaker, K-Cup coffee maker, iron, luggage racks, ample closet, AC and Heater, ceiling fan, 2 TV trays, a designated workspace, and a beautiful covered patio with a propane gas outdoor fireplace, as well as a lookout from the top of our property. The owners live on this NONSMOKING gated property and are nearby in case of any needs. If you are planning on attending the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, we are only minutes away and have a great location for all the fiesta fun. We are also only a short drive away from the Intel Park and Ride for the fiesta and it is strongly recommended if you will be attending ANY of the fiesta events. If you want to take a break from the fiesta crowds, feel free to have coffee at The Love Shack Lookout. This uncovered lookout is at the top of our property, just a little hike up the sandy hill. It boasts a great view of the balloon park and fireworks. This is also the perfect place to relax and unwind in the peace of the country with the city just minutes away. Also enjoy our rural horse friendly village by shopping, having an espresso, fine dining, microbreweries, wineries, playing pool, pumpkin patching, public swimming pool, skate park, and farmer's market. Corrales also has a self-guided walking tour, a grower's market, and the historic Old San Ysidro Church. Feed our quail then shop at the nearby Cottonwood Mall. Santa Fe is 50 minutes away. We are a veteran owned home with friendly and flexible scheduling. We look forward to accommodating executives, traveling nurses, Intel employees, movie industry, and insurance renovation temporary relocation. Kids are welcome, not pets please. Please DM us for details.

We really enjoyed our stay. It was so peaceful, the location was beautiful. It was so close to Albuquerque and everything we wanted to do, but far enough away to enjoy, the birds singing and away from the road...wonderful. Our hosts were easy to reach and made it more enjoyable.
The Love Shack is an adorable space that suited my needs perfectly. The owners are lovely people and readily available if needed. Thank you for a great stay at the Love Shack.
We found this to be perfect getaway for two! The location is great for the area, the host was very good to communicate with, and the Love Shack is comfortable and cozy. We highly recommend this one!
Lovely little Casita in a great location. These hosts went above and beyond in every way. Definitely will stay there again

Amazing lovers getaway spot!! Beautiful, secluded, cozy and convenient.
We had a wonderful stay at the love shack. It was exactly what we were looking for! A cozy, quiet spot that was away from big city but close enough to get out and enjoy the area. Thank you Kiera for making our stay perfect!!
I spent a week in this casita in Corrales. The views of the Sandia Mountains are spectacular! And it would be a fine place to watch the balloons. The hosts not have been nicer or more welcoming and it is quiet and peaceful at night. I will book it again!

Cozy, Clean and Nice Stay
The studio is very clean and has been upgraded. We celebrated our anniversary and had a great stay. The owner welcomed us with a bottle of champagne for our anniversary and some warm cookies. The fireplace on the patio was great. We were hoping to have views of the city from the patio, but it was still nice to sit out there. We'd definitely stay here again.

Hidden treasure
The love shack was the perfect weekend getaway. Located in a remarkably beautifu area this casita is more than we anticipated. It has all the comforts of living off of the grid but it is close enough to enjoy all the conveniences of the city. This well appointed casita is comfortable, clean and a great place to unwind. This is a hidden treasure that I'm glad we found.

Dana,
Thank you for staying with us over the Valentine's weekend. We are happy you had a great experience here. Please come visit us again from Texas.
Absolutely loved this casita and hosts! Everything was as described in the listing. We had all amenities needed. The casita was comfortable and very clean. We especially enjoyed the outdoor area where we could watch the fiesta hot air balloons while enjoying our morning coffee. The balloons came right over us! We also enjoyed beautiful quail in the yard and even saw a Roadrunner! Our hosts were very respectful providing space but were also there if we needed anything. The property is secure and we felt very safe. I highly recommend this property!

Just right!
I decided to take a personal retreat and found the "Love Shake." It was exactly what I needed. Cute and cozy with a private patio where I could sit and read and watch all kinds of critters (Quails with new babies, chipmunks, lizards, rabbits even a Roadrunner). Keira and Rick were great hosts, providing all the essentials as well as special consideration for what I needed. They have created an absolutely beautiful compound. The location is perfect, a real sense of seclusion but minutes away from anything a person could want from restaurants to any kind of store. Corrales is a charming village and this would be a wonderful location for anyone attending Balloon Fiesta.

Delightful place to stay
My husband and I spent 5 days in Albuquerque, exploring the city and traveling up to Santa Fe and Taos, and the Love Shack was a perfect jumping off point for our adventures. It is very conveniently located: close to shopping, close to Santa Fe, close to everything we wanted to do. As an added bonus, it's in a beautiful rural area full of animals, mature trees, canals, and the charming Village of Corrales. The studio itself was delightful: whimsically-decorated, clean, comfortable, and outfitted with everything we needed. I especially appreciated the mattress heater! Rick and Keira were the most gracious of hosts, leaving us treats (cookies and popcorn), giving us restaurant recommendations, taking the time to chat, and making sure we were completely comfortable in our accommodations. I wholeheartedly recommend staying at the Love Shack!

Too Good to be True? No Way!
You know when you hear that something/someone/someplace is really fantastic and you think....."Does it sound too good to be true"? The Love Shack lives up to the hype. Keira and Rick have created a peaceful oasis with a spectacular mountain view. The casita is beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and just the right size for a couple. There are so many extras: a heated mattress, a big screen TV with many channel choices, fast Wi-Fi, and a cozy covered porch with a gas heated fireplace.
I can truly say that the Love Shack is the finest property we've booked thru Home Away. Do not hesitate to give it a try. You will not be disappointed.

Wow! Thank you so much for the excellent review. We had fun getting to know you. We hope you come back soon.
It has only been a day and I already miss this place! Everything about this property was more than I expected. From the gated entrance, the kitchenette and very modern stylish decor, and dreamy bed (heated mattress pad, head/foot controls and memory foam) to Alexa welcoming us home and turning on all the lights. I loved the keyless entry! The property is immaculately maintained and is well illuminated at night. They have really thought of everything. We appreciated the local take-out menu’s and info on attractions! It is an easy drive from the airport and close to anything you might need. It was so easy to come and go we didn’t use our gps after the first day. It is very quiet being up the hill from the city. This would be a wonderful place to work and/or create if you are in town for an extended stay. Most mornings we would go up to the lookout for coffee to sit by the fire pit, watching the sun rise-and I am NOT a morning person! If we were home (that was our immediate feeling) at sunset we would watch the Sandia Mountain's sink into beautiful red hues and watched the city’s night come to life. My best friend lives ten minutes away and the hosts were so sweet to invite her to visit us! There is no shortage of epic activities within a 1-2 hour drive! We went into the Jemez Springs, saw the Petroglyph’s, and had some of the most amazing (and spicy) food at El Pinto! The hosts are amazing people and so personable. We are already planning our next visits this year! Thank you!

Hello, Anne! I am so thrilled that you loved our home as much as we do! The two of you are welcome back anytime! I am so sorry to tell you that VRBO still has not rectified the software issue and we were unable to post our review of your stay. Luckily we did not lose your fantastic review and at least we are able to respond to it! Take care and come back soon!
I stayed here for 10 days, the place was very quiet and relaxing. The owners are very nice and accommodating with nice touches of welcome cookies, wine & coffee.
We booked the Love Shack for a mother daughter trip to the Balloon Fiesta. The Love Shack was beyond our expectations. The accommodations were comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated. Listening to the birds, morning desert air, warmth from the fire pit and hot coffee started the mornings. Kiera and her husband were gracious hosts. But I will never forget watching the Dawn Patrol from the advantage point of their driveway with the mountain as a back drop. Thank you for the great memories.
Great stayVery nice cozy place to stay close to all restaurants gas entertain the host was very nice great do you have a good first of al Very nice cozy place to stay close to all restaurants gas entertain the host was very nice great View Of the balloon festival five star rating I would stay at again
Kiera and Rick were warm and welcoming and the casita was tastefully decorated and had all the amenities. The space was inviting and utilitarian as we were able to cook our own meals and relax on the patio as we soaked in the views. Would highly recommend to travelers who crave a beautiful space in a quiet, rural setting that is still close to shopping and entertainment.

Love shack is charming !
We were very pleased with the accommodations at the Love Shack ! It looked better in real life than in the great photos so that was a big plus. Keira is very friendly and had great communication with us although we didn’t get a chance to meet in person. We loved walking into the place with a beautiful bottle of wine and delicious cookies plus the soothing music on the TV. A great way to end our first trip up and down the state of New Mexico. Highly recommend. A+

Fantastic Balloon Festival Views! New Mexico's Secret. Minutes from all the action!
You couldn't ask for a better host and hostess. Rick and Keira were friendly,kind and always wanting to please. We loved this couple. They thought of everything. The Love Shack is decorated and equipped with all you will need. We walked in to the fragrance of lavender and the sound of soft music playing on the t.v. The cookies were an added treat. The Love Shack is so cozy and lovely. There is even a cute porch with a fireplace. It is just a couple miles from downtown Corrales. You sit high at the end of a street with to die for views! You don't even need to fight the traffic for the Balloon Festival. We sat at the top of the hill and saw everything saving us time and money. Rick and Keira are happy to answer any questions you have about the area as far as places to eat or see. They also give you your privacy. While we were there we went on a day drive up to Taos to drive the 85 mile Enchanted Trail Loop. The mountains were so beautiful during the changing of the leaves. The location is perfect for a home base. The queen size bed is a memory foam mattress. We will be coming back again for sure to see more of New Mexico and all she has to offer. The Love Shack is very relaxing being located in a rural area just a couple miles from the all the traffic and noise. Thank You Rick and Keira for sharing your paradise with us. Kris and I are so happy to have the pleasure of staying and meeting you and your lovely babies. You made our stay so special.

About the host
Hosted by M's
We have lived in Corrales since 2000. We have put much money, time, and sweat into our home. We enjoy this small village and the accessibility to Albuquerque and Rio Rancho. We have owned our own business for 30 years and it is now time to wind down and share our home with people. Welcome home, from our 2 beautiful Doggos, too!
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the idea of living in a small community with land and a view. Corrales is a quiet village without any traffic lights. There is hiking down the road, fine dining, bars, microbreweries, shopping, massages, fishing, a public pool, all located in our tiny village. Corrales is a horse community and home to many wild animals. We have seen bunnies, porcupines, skunk, fox, bobcat, coyotes, many birds, and lots of reptiles on our property. We have a unique spot located in the rural desert with EVERYTHING a large metroplex has to offer one mile away.
What makes this property unique
This property gives the unique experience of a quiet country feel with a mall and the big city just blocks away. Enjoy our nonsmoking property and peace and quiet with all the necessities nearby. We have had an influx of movie filming in our village. It is fun to drive by and watch the crews at work. Many new restaurants and breweries in our village.
