We loved the house's artistic decor, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, and the short walk to downtown Santa Fe. We especially enjoyed the front porch, where we had coffee and tea in the mornings and talked about our day in the evenings. Check-in was very easy and the owner responded quickly to questions during our stay.

Lovely and comfortable Santa Fe home

We had a lovely time at Casita del Norte for our six day family reunion. The home is very comfortable, with two good sized ensuite bedrooms, an open and attractive first floor living, dining and kitchen area, and well-stocked kitchen and cupboards. The neighborhood is very quiet at night with great star gazing, and a very short drive (or walk) into town. We'd stay again - definitely recommend!

Perfect Stay in Santa Fe

We were so happy with Shelly’s casita. We stayed for five nights. It was exactly as shown in the photos and described. This is a real home which is beautifully decorated in Southwest style. There is a fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer/dishwasher. We made fires in the kiva fireplace while listening to her music collection on her turntable. The casita walking distance to town and quick drives to the supermarket etc. we would definitely stay here again! Shelly is a thoughtful and responsive host.

Best VRBO experience to date!

My wife and I have been coming to Santa Fe for years, and we've always stayed in a hotel. This trip we were joined by friends, so we decided to book a house. Casita Del Norte was perfect for us! It was close enough to the plaza to walk, but far enough away that you did not feel like you were in a touristy area. The neighborhood was very quiet. The house itself was spotless and flush with modern amenities. The furnishings were all very comfortable, and the decor was warm and inviting. We really loved the turntable (!), and even added an album to the wonderful collection as a gift. Finally, Shelly, our host, was THE BEST! She was very responsive, and her recommendations were impeccable. We will return!

Girls Getaway

I have been using VRBO for many years and I have to say this is one of the best! The property was exactly as described with The Plaza easily within walking distance. There is no need to rent a car if staying in the area. We used ride share services without an issue during the day; however, later in the evening it was more difficult to find a ride. My last visit during the summer, I had zero issues finding a ride share within minutes. Everything you need is deliverable to this location. The home is perfect! The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook and serve your meals. There is a cozy table in the kitchen gorgeous with views of the Mexico sunset. The two master suites were perfect for our girls weekend or for two couples. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and a lot of closet space. There is a balcony off one of the suites that overlooks the front. The other suite has an amazing view of the wilderness area. The kiva fireplace was such a treat in the evenings. The smell of the piñon wood was mesmerizing as we sat around with a glass of wine in the evening. We spent many evenings listening to the diverse vinyl collection on turntable. We even had a little snow. Shelly and Todd were wonderful hosts and answered every question promptly. The check-in packet was everything we needed. The local recommendations were spot-on for our time here. Not one thing was missed in this beautiful Santa Fe Casita Del Norte.
