4 bedroom / Hot Tub / Foothills Property
This wonderful 4 bedroom Santa Fe Style home is located at the base of the Foothills with easy access to all the attractions. It is 10 minute drive to I25 and Balloon fiesta Park, 40 minutes to Santa Fe, and 20 minutes to Old town ABQ. The Tramway is less than 5 minutes away with abundant trails for hiking, biking or anything outdoor. The home is fully furnished with a expansive back yard and patio. Oversized Hot Tub, outdoor gas firepit and native flowers abound. 2019 New Tile Floors throughout and Now Featuring Refrigerated A/C.
All went well, except for freezer, which needs repair. Ice cream melted. Ice partially melted. We were short on cleaning cloths and wash cloths which were brought in short order.
The house has a huge master suite and three bedrooms clustered together on the other side of the house. The backyard is beautiful with nice plantings, but there is quite a bit of road noise. The large kitchen is well-equipped. The freezer was not working so a large amount of ice cream we bought for a birthday party melted. The was our only significant complaint about this house
Spacious, well appointed interior. Very nice exterior. Many comfortable seats. A great place to relax, to chat or to carry on serious discussions. A beautiful, welcoming, gem of a location, 4 siblings and two of their spouses - all 65 enjoyed the heck out of our stay.We recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Nice enough house but ineffectual property management
Was there for three nights for a family wedding. Arrived on Friday and the house was hot so we turned on the A/C. After an hour and a half of the A/C turned on the house was actually hotter! So the A/C was not working. Messaged the property manager (In the VRBO app). Didn't get a response for long while, so I called the number. Was told it was too late on Friday to get someone over there but would try for the weekend. No one ever showed up. The A/C never worked all weekend.
Tried the hot tub one evening but the temperature was so low we had to get out. The control was set on "econ", so it wouldn't heat up. Messaged the property manger in the app again about how to take the control off economy so the temperature would go up, but never heard back. So we didn't use it again. It was too cold for us. Never got above 98.
Instructions said to only use plastic glasses at the hot tub, but the house had zero plastic glasses. We had to use plastic measuring cups to drink out of!
One last weird thing...the way the house is set up three bedrooms share one bathroom. That bathroom had only two small towel hooks on the back of the bathroom door to hang towels on. We had 6 adults who showered and used hot tub towels and there was nowhere for us all to hang out towels to dry. We had towels draped all over our rooms, which also did not have enough hooks for the towels to dry.
This is a house with great bones, but it wasn't very clean and is not in particularly good repair. Every door knob, light switch, or cabinet knob was sticky. Nice big, shaded outdoor area, but all outdoor furniture filthy, and terrible road noise from road right behind house. Door knobs are old and hard to lock/open. No instructions at house of any kind - would be nice to have them for tv and hot tub especially. Not generously outfitted with towels or other essentials: we had 4 hot tub towels for 6 guests, and only four hand towels. No extra kitchen towels. No kleenex in one of the bathrooms. Host did respond to requests, but he didn't let us know he got the request, so we weren't sure he was on it.
Best for group of friends or family. Need a car as many sites and necessities are not in walking distance. easy access for a day trip to Santa Fe and to Sandia Pueblo (5 miles) for Casio, Golf and SPA.
This is s great property with plenty of room for family. However the two tvâs were too small for the space. Also it would be nice to have extra chairs at kitchen table (only four). Some tlc is needed in bathroom, but not an excuse to not stay here! This property is awesome, a gem! Owner is beyond friendly and courteous. Helped us with heater. Would love to stay hear again next time in Albuquerque!
We stayed a couple nights at the end of May 2023. The property was easy to find, close to all the things we wanted to do and clean and quiet. The hot tub was big enough to fit everyone easily. The house layout was great. The main bedroom was quite large and the other bedrooms for the kids were off on their own hallway. House had everything we needed for a great stay.
I had some old friends fly in to play three days of golf. The rental was perfect for what we did. Neighbors were all nice, neighborhood was nice and quiet. Everyone really enjoyed the stay and already planning to do same ting next year.
We enjoyed this property for various reasons. The back yard being top on the list, plus location, comfort, plenty of space and everything we needed for a Mother's Day backyard grill out!
We are 7, 2 brothers..cousins...spouses...we all met here to have a family reunion.
The home accommodation fit our needs perfectly. We enjoyed the indoor and outdoor space.
Very relaxing.
We really loved this property! The backyard and patio were great. The hummingbirds and lizards were so fun to watch! Communication with the owner was great and they were super responsive!
This house just has a very nice feel to it. My 2 adult children, my husband and myself stayed while in town for my parents' 50th anniversary celebration. We had to contact the owner the night we arrived for something minor, and he came over within 10 minutes and had the issue resolved. We walked around the neighborhood and were greeted by very friendly neighbors, and had a hard time saying goodbye to this lovely home when it was time to check out.
Things the house needs to supply:
- not enough soap in bathrooms
- only one hair dryer (should be one in each bathroom)
-TV in master did not work
- only one dish towel in kitchen
- missing some "essentials" in kitchen such as:
soup ladle
working can opener
rubber spatulas
new frying pans (only one and it had a broken handle)
the dishwasher top rack is falling apart and needs repair
the oven was very dirty
the outdoor grill was filthy and unusable
some pillow cases were stained (possibly blood spots)
a sink "stopper" was missing in the master bathroom
no games for children or adults to play
I hope this list of items can be provided to the owner so they can make some updates and improvements.
This VRBO was not up to the standard of other VRBO homes we have rented in the past.
Thank you.
Quiet neighborhood, close to foothills hiking; perfect for family gathering.
Enjoyed stargazing in the hot tub and warming up around the outdoor fire pit (we visited in February). Private, landscaped backyard is probably even more beautiful in the warmer seasons when the roses are in bloom. Indoors, the flooring has been updated to a wood laminate (pictures show carpeting). The living areas were comfortable, and the book shelf was a real bonus, from "60 foothills hikes" to "1000 places to see in a lifetime" to helpful local info. Kitchen well equipped, two dining areas allow serving a few or a crowd. A couple of minor maintenance issues received immediate response from the host. Overall, recommend this spot, and hope we get a chance to return!
