Home away from home

Great place, Melissa is a wonderful host. Beautiful scenery, and meeting the horse, dogs and Melli on the property were highlights. The casita is perfect, and really feels like a home away from home. I enjoyed my stay here and will be coming back.

New Mexico Getaway

This place is exactly what I was looking for, peace and quiet surrounded by beautiful country. The host is very friendly, polite and accommodating. The casita is clean and well put together. The night sky is incredible! Perfect place to unplug and explore the Lincoln National Forest. Highly recommend.

Great Place to Stay

If you are looking for a nice little get away this is the perfect little place. The place is cozy with a nice view. My favorite part was being around the animals on the property. There are 3 horses, one donkey and 3 dogs. Olivia

Peaceful

Beautiful and quiet property tucked in the hills of Hondo. The only reason I Icouldn't give it 5 stars is the very tiny shower. Stayed labor day weekend. We wanted to be around Ruidoso but because of the racing that weekend everything was crowded. This place was perfect, close enough for a short drive in but far enough to be out of the chaos.

Beautiful, quiet and relaxing.

June 14 - 16 2024: Melissa hosts a special, peaceful spot. It is as attractive to stay put and enjoy the immediate surroundings as it is to take shorter excursions. This location is a short drive to Ruidoso and other historic and scenic attractions in this part of New Mexico. The horses are beautiful. The accommodations were nice and cozy. Nothing distracted from the country ranch setting. My wife and I can very much recommend this destination. It's a well deserved 5 stars.

Perfect for couples!

This casita although small was beautiful! Everything from the bedding, decor, right down to all the quaint containers she used for our breakfast. Only about a 25 minute drive from Ruidoso. We were in the country where it was peaceful but still close to Al the tourist stuff! Our host was great! Set up a great dinner reservation for us in Tinnie. She communicated with us in a quick manner and was super friendly. My husband and I loved this little place!
