Had the best time in Rio Rancho

We enjoyed our week stay in Rio Rancho. Tom and Kelly were very gracious hosts. Everything was as described and stocked as needed. The neighborhood is quiet. The highlight of our trip was a balloon ride, Santa Fe, Bandelier National Monument and Ghost Ranch. We had beautiful weather. It was a perfect get away. Thank you!

Quiet & Lovely!

My husband and I visit the Albuquerque area yearly in April to visit his relatives in Rio Rancho. What a find this was! After 10 years of hotel rooms, we found our home away from home. The mountain greets you majestically and the hosts are attentive and welcoming. Everything you need all nestled in a quiet neighborhood. It truly is a lovely casita!

Wonderful Hosts and Stay

My fiancé and I loved everything about our trip. Tom and Kelly were incredible and very kind hosts. The property is extremely well maintained and we had zero issues during our stay. The property is in a very safe, cozy neighborhood. Scenic mountain surrounding the entire area, neat town with plenty of great places to eat, great hikes near or far from the property. All around 10/10 experience and would recommend to everyone!

Tom’s place was absolutely perfect! The bathroom and kitchen are clean and modern. The bed is firm but comfortable. I got the best sleep I’ve had in a while! The location is great. It was quiet with a fantastic view of the stars. As a solo traveler, I felt very safe. Highly recommended!

4 stars out of 5

Everything about this place is excellent; great location, exceptionally clean, well appointed, friendly owners... with one exception. The bed is some kind of memory foam that was VERY firm and, for us, very uncomfortable. Perhaps it just takes some time to get used to it, but our four night stay was clearly not enough. We could not stay here again.

Quiet and clean

This casita is a cute place to stay that is somewhat away from the hustle and bustle of the main street. Beautiful view from the patio doors shows the Sandia mt in various degrees of lighting, always changing. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet. The property is gated as well. Ample cooking space if needed. Great for a couple to get away yet be close enough to enjoy Santa Fe or Albuquerque. This was our 2nd visit there!

We really enjoyed our stay at Tom’s & Kelly’s Casita! It was perfect for our visit to Albuquerque and the Balloon Fiesta! Good (quiet) location in Rio Rancho to catch a Park & Ride and get to the balloon field. Tom & Kelly were the nicest hosts. We definitely would recommend their sweet Casita!!
