About this property

NEW LISTING 3/9/17 for a review on us view vrbo # 304138----80 5-star reviews. Same dedication will be applied to this rental. Here experience the beauty of desert living away from the city, but so close. Adobe casita on a 3 acre property separated from owners home by 7' rock wall and stockade fencing. 8 min. from historic Old Mesilla with eclectic dining, S.W. gift shops, a brewery & winery. The casita is nestled amongst desert trees/bushes where desert critters hide, very private and quiet. Traveling nurses and docs love staying here.

Out side the covered patio has a great view of the desert around you, the Rio Grande river and city lights of Las Cruces.
Rose and purple sunsets on the Organ Mts. are beautiful, listen to our big quail family signaling as they fly up into your pine trees to roost for the night. A small raised garden borders the patio & a small pet door enters the casita. Our property is fenced for a large animal so you can bring your horse. Quiet pets welcome-$100. refundable deposit. If your pet creates other damage in excess of deposit (chewing-scratching)-you will be charged for repairs. Lovely homes on large acreage make up neighborhood---very quiet.

A Winner

Peaceful, private, comfortably furnished, fully equipped, with a large patio and great views over the Mesilla Valley and Organ Mountains. Marian and Dick are gracious and generous hosts. The roadrunners, jackrabbits and quail are a bonus :)

Repeat Visitor

This is my third time renting the casita, and I love it. You won't beat the views, the location is close to a lot, and the neighborhood is one of upscale homes spread out from each other with lots of natural beauty in between. The place offers a lot of privacy, but is an easy drive to coffee shops, restaurants, supermarkets, and hiking. The kitchen has everything that you need (I never wanted a blender so don't know if it had one), and the landlords are friendly. Highly recommend.

What a find!

I found just what I was looking for. I knew the area and the fact that there are a few accommodations with the kind of view and serenity of this one. It is a small casita for one or two with a view of the Mesilla valley that is awesome. From the porch we watched the shadows turn the mountains purple at sunset. I hiked with my dog in the desert that is easily accessible. I saw jackrabbits everywhere, heard coyotes at night, caught a glimpse of a roadrunner and even saw javelinas from a distance. The casita is very clean and has all we need to be comfortable. The owners are really nice and will accommodate any needs. We plan to return and enjoy this wonderful home again.

Cozy House

Dick and Marian made us feel like old friends come to visit. Our dogs made friends with theirs and Marian treated ours like they were their own pets, always welcome in their yard and in the house. The casita has enough privacy and the view is to die for. Since we are now residents of Las Cruces, we look forward to seeing them often.

Second time staying and hope to stay again

This property is in a beautiful neighborhood and has unbeatable views that includes a desert, mountains, and the city of Las Cruces. It's a convenient distance to excellent hiking and to businesses of every kind. The casita itself is cheerful and well-appointed and the landlords very obliging.
