The property was great! It was clean and well stocked for cooking. The mattress in the main bedroom was nice too. We woke up feeling well rested every morning! The back porch, overlooking the Santa Fe River, was beautiful! Host was very helpful and made sure we were informed of pertinent details. We enjoyed our stay and plan to return in the future!

What a beautiful place to call home for a few days. We had a wonderful stay here. The house is beautiful!!! Updated and gorgeous. It was very clean, bed were comfy and clean, kitchen was well stocked. Loved sitting on the porch watching the river go by! We loved taking the kayaks out on the river and took the floats to some nearby springs. The host, Mark, was very responsive and wonderful to work with. We will definitely be back!!

A very comfortable recently remodeled home alongside a sparkling clear river. Unseasonable cool, wet weather kept us from venturing out on the river but we appreciated the kayaks were available for our use. A very tranquil setting.
