Remodeled 150 Year old Adobe, In historic New Mexico Village

A fully remodeled 1100 square foot adobe home, with one large bedroom and a fully equipped kitchen, living room, bathroom with a walk in shower. Situated on the High Road to Taos in historic Truchas New Mexico. The large windows in the bedroom fully frame the view of the Truchas Peaks, which at 13,100 feet dominate the surrounding countryside. There is also an additional 400 foot covered portal for a relaxation during your breakfast dining or happy hour.

The adobe was fully remodeled 10 years ago with a new kitchen and bathroom - many of the old elements such as the vigas and adobe walls were retained. The casita is equipped with traditional details including hand carved furniture, plastered walls and wooden floors.

Solar panels have also been installed within the past 5 years to reduce our carbon footprint.

Exquisite property
Beautiful home and amazing views. All of the interior had hand hewn wood doors, furniture, hinges, etc., with all of the modern amenities (designer kitchen). We literally did not want to leave the property; however the home is an easy drive to Rancho de Chimayo or Tesuque Market for dinner, and Santa Fe or Taos for an easy day or afternoon trip to visit galleries, museums, etc. There is grocery shopping nearby in Espanola (i.e., Walmart, etc.). Be sure to check out Sugar Nymphs, a close by restaurant. We prefer staying outside of Santa Fe to avoid the traffic and noise. This is is a great place to stay if you want to explore the entire area including Colorado (take a day trip to Durango or Pegosa Springs). The casita is quiet, a great place to relax and recharge.

Beautiful and peaceful!
We really enjoyed our stay at Annette and Ben's! Their adobe was one of the nicest places we've stayed, very comfortable to come back to after our hikes, had the necessary kitchen supplies including a good assortment of basic spices and condiments to cook some of our own meals and was in a beautiful location. Ben brought us fresh eggs, shared hike suggestions and was great at getting back to us. Their place is in a very rural area which was perfect for us. We loved sitting outside on the patio listening to the many birds while we enjoyed lunch or a snack after one of our hikes. If you enjoy rural life or need to get away from the city, I highly recommend Annette and Ben's adobe!

Breath of fresh air
We wanted a place to recharge and escape from our hectic life. This place is off the beaten path and lovely. The stars at night are glorious. A short trek through beautiful country to either Santa Fe or Taos. Quiet, peaceful, comfy! The hooting owl and light snow made it picture perfect. Our hosts were helpful and accommodating. We will definitely stay there again next time we head that way.

Beyond Expectations
Lets start with the beautiful drive to the Casita. Gorgeous quaint rustic scenery. The Casita is situated with views from all directions. The checkin was so easy and the owners were very quick with all communication. The inside is so stunning and cozy it was really ideal for what i was looking for, decompress and enjoy.. I hope whoever reads stays longer then 2 days, because its just not enough. The owners have thought of everything and you'll really need nothing. There is also so much to see and do in all seasons. Thank you for sharing ypur stunning home with me..

Beautiful remote adobe house
The location is remote but beautiful. Truchas is a ways away from everything but if you’re looking for quiet and getting away this is a great rental. We were greeted by the host dog named Buddy and the host Ben showed up soon after we arrived. We needed an extension cord to run our Roku on the TV and Ben showed up in minutes delivering one. Loved staying here and I would definitely recommend it. Lots of room and it feels like home!!!

This is our 3rd stay, and we will be back next year. The house is beautiful and we love sitting on the patio watching light play on the mountains. The hosts are wonderful—thanks for fresh eggs! It’s an easy and lovely drive to Chimayo or even Taos and nice to retreat back into the quiet of this property.

Beautiful, well maintained cabin perfect for a few days vacation. We loved the porch where we sat and watched the sky in the evening. It is a bit out there though so come prepared with whatever you will need.

Great hideaway
This was my second stay at the Casita. If you love open space, mountain views and absolute quiet, you'll love this place. Very tasteful Southwestern decor inside and a large and fully functional kitchen. I go to write and hike, and the Truchas mountains, which you can see from the bedroom, are full of beautiful trails. I look forward to returning.

Very Special Place in North Central NM
My husband and I had a wonderful long weekend at your beautiful Casita. The location is perfect, easy drive to Santa Fe, Taos, Ojo Caliente and all that this beautiful area has to offer. Fantastic mornings and evenings on the secluded patio. Finishes and furnishings are top-notch! Great kitchen, nice bathroom, comfortable bed and living room furniture, all the modern amenities in a beautifully restored historic home which retains 100% of its charm. Hosts were extremely helpful with recommendations for restaurants, etc. This was the perfect get-away, we hope to visit again. Highly recommend this place!

Wonderful Getaway, Beautiful house
Beautiful house in a beautiful setting in an quiet and interesting village. Very comfortable and spacious. Perfect for a couple. Even fresh eggs & excellent coffee. Everything that you could possibly need was supplied. We just brought a few things for breakfast and for evening snacks. There is a very good restaurant in Chimayo - about 10 miles away. We had dinner there several times. The covered patio was a delightful place to relax and enjoy the many birds that came to visit the bird feeder and flowers. It was so relaxing to be away from big cities. The mountains are beautiful. Cool & comfortable. We also visited Santa Fe & Taos. Ben was very helpful with information before and during our stay. We would love to come back another time.
