About this property

Casa de Artista located in the charming village of Abiquiu

A beautifully appointed Adobe home that can accommodate up to 5 guests nestled in the village of Abiquiu, which is considered uniquely beautiful and a quiet and serene escape from the every day to recharge and rejuvenate.

We provide a well-furnished house that is actually my family home so you won’t find a sparsely decorated “vacation rental. We provide freshly delivered coffee, excellent wifi, and Direct TV as well as a wonderful local caretaker to help with just about anything.

My family home for the last 40 years, nestled in Abiquiu, in the beautiful Chama valley, in Northern New Mexico. Abiquiu is a quaint and eclectic gathering of both native New Mexicans and those in the know.

The house was completely remodeling in 2005 from the roof to the floors. All new kitchen and amazing bathroom await you and you won't find is a hastily appointed 'vacation rental,' this is my childhood home, and it's been beautifully appointed with an eclectic combination of modern pieces and beautiful antiques.

Far from stuffy and boring, this house can be your jumping off point for all sorts of adventures in northern New Mexico, whether you're venturing into Santa Fe to peruse art galleries or headed to Taos to enjoy some fun, this house can be your idyllic escape from the hectic every day of your life.

It's such a beautiful and quiet place to be where the stars at night seem to go on forever.

The experience of being in the village of Abiquiu is such a unique perspective on life. It's not like the polished, touristy side of New Mexico; this house is located in the same place that people settled hundreds of years ago in a government land grant and continued with their lives.

The home is just a short walk to Georgia O'Keeffe's home and a short drive to Ghost Ranch. The area brings many repeat visitors and warrants new explorations with each visit. Take a drive into the Chama River Canyon to hike, visit the Benedictine Monastery, enjoy the hot springs at Ojo Caliente or simply embrace the enchanting nature of Abiquiu - allow yourself to enjoy it all.

Please know that the house is located in the highest part of the village and the road can be slightly intimidating. We've never had any issues with guests accessing the house or being troubled by neighbors.

Also, for clarity, the main bedroom is accessed through the second bedroom and the bathroom and kitchen are also off the second bedroom. The house flows from one room to the next as with most traditional adobe homes.

The house resides in a rural community consisting of dirt roads which a few guests have found surprising. They are generally in good condition for most vehicles but we want our guests to be informed of this.

Please be aware that this house sits next to other homes and that there are people around and there can sometimes be noise during the day.

We ask that our guests be flexible, understanding, and practice open communication when it comes to the neighbors and things such as parking and occasional noise. These are good people just living their lives, just know it's not an isolated vacation rental.

If you're looking for a unique experience, this is the house for you!

Authentic adobe with antiques
Situated amongst other adobe houses on top of a hill with magnificent views. I really enjoyed staying here. There was a problem with the washing machine but I was told a new one is on its way. Otherwise fantastic.

Needs cleaning and improved management, quality control by absentee owner.
Absentee owner does not inspect regularly, many things needed repair or maintenance- oven did not work, many lights needed new bulbs or troubleshooting, furniture needed Re arranging for bedroom doors to close. There is zero printed or written info at the property. Shower tub is very dangerous ingress egress, weird design of steps. Parking is totally weird and you have to ask the all day drinking-beer neighbors to move their cars to get in and out. I’m a 30 year resident of a more traditional northern NM village than Abiquiu, not an out of state tourist. None of these issues are cultural, rather just a function of passive lazy management. If they pay their cleaners more money , maybe they can spend more time making the unit proper for guests.

Great place to stay
It was a really nice house with everything we needed and then some. And easy drives to lots of places. As other people have said, it's a little difficult to find and parking is tight but we would definitely return.

Incredible place
If you're looking for a remote getaway, this is the perfect place for you. The inside of this home is more beautiful than the pictures convey, and Abiquiu is gorgeous as well. Check in and check out were easy, but as other folks mentioned I would definitely recommend getting there during the daylight hours because it is hard to find the first time. Parking is tight but we had no trouble once we got used to it. The neighbors were very friendly, we ended up chatting for a while and one of them gave us fresh fruit from his orchard. I definitely recommend saying hi and introducing yourself if you stay here. Overall, we had a wonderful time and I could not recommend this spot more. Hopefully we will be back sometime to visit again!
