Famous Trainhouse Dome not far from White Sands NP

Unique geodesic dome home central to NMSU, I-10 and Old Mesilla. Approximately 40 minutes to White Sands NP. Gated, secluded and secure. BEFORE BOOKING, READ NOTE BELOW ABOUT LOUD TRAINS AND CELL TOWER! The home is a former caretaker's place and is located inside a fenced and gated four acre business yard. The business is at the other end of the property from the house (about 800' away). Please see our check in instructions which show pictures of everything and where to enter the property.

You will have use of the entire main floor which consists of two large bedrooms, full kitchen, large bath , dining and main room plus the upstairs loft area. The upstairs master bedroom and bath is being renovated for future use, and is not currently available. There is also a basement which will be kept locked at all times, and is reserved for Host's personal use.

This listing is disinfected using ozone. As the final step in our cleaning process, an O3 generator is used for the ultimate sensitization of the ENTIRE house. We do this for your safety and security.

CELL TOWER NEARBY! There is a cell tower adjacent to property. Anyone who thinks they might be affected by a cell tower should NOT book this property. No refunds will be given because of cell tower.

LOUD TRAINS! As the listing title says, this is the locally famous Train-House Dome. That means it's right next to the tracks! The house is next to the Santa Fe Railroad, which crosses South Valley Dr. nearby (please see the pictures for an aerial view which shows proximity). As such, when a train passes you WILL be able to hear its horn and feel the rumble. BNSF (Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway) says they average 5 trains per day, but most of those are during daylight hours. Be aware there COULD be several pass in the night! But that's relatively unusual. Earplugs are provided free of charge just in case to help you have a restful sleep. Please do NOT BOOK if you are in any way uncomfortable about a train or trains passing by in the night. And please remember it's NOT FAIR to rate us lower than 5 stars because of the train(s)!! There are video cameras at different locations covering the entire business yard for additional security.
