Remodeled 150 Year old Adobe, In historic New Mexico Village
A fully remodeled 1100 square foot adobe home, with one large bedroom and a fully equipped kitchen, living room, bathroom with a walk in shower. Situated on the High Road to Taos in historic Truchas New Mexico. The large windows in the bedroom fully frame the view of the Truchas Peaks, which at 13,100 feet dominate the surrounding countryside. There is also an additional 400 foot covered portal for a relaxation during your breakfast dining or happy hour.
The adobe was fully remodeled 10 years ago with a new kitchen and bathroom - many of the old elements such as the vigas and adobe walls were retained. The casita is equipped with traditional details including hand carved furniture, plastered walls and wooden floors.
Solar panels have also been installed within the past 5 years to reduce our carbon footprint.

Its hard to imagine anywhere better to stay if you are in search of beauty, solitude and grace. The hosts were perfect, the property magical. The listing is way understated, this is the place you have been looking for if you want to take in the beauty of the high road and make a few wonderful meals for yourself.
Our second visit. Beautiful historic home and town, great hosts. The best place for a relaxing getaway with pristine views and quietude We ll be back, many thanks to the hosts.
Enjoyable place to stay very clean very modern with the accent of a nostalgic Casita enjoyed my stay immensely couldn’t have picked a better place beautiful scenery. Everywhere you look will definitely be scheduling that exact Casita again.
This beautifully restored adobe is perfect for a peaceful, quiet getaway. We loved taking long walks in the cool clean air and resting in the lovely patio with a gorgeous view of the mountain scenery. When we could tear ourselves away from our comfortable nest, it wa a short trip to Chimayo and its sacred and culinary attractions. The road to Taos is longer but scenic and interesting. Owners Annette and Ben are the best hosts!
The house was gorgeous including the furniture; a New Mexican palace! The location in Truchas was beautiful and the views of the mountains from the back porch were stunning! It was beautifully quiet and the air was clean and sweet. We would love to visit again!
This is our 3rd stay, and we will be back next year. The house is beautiful and we love sitting on the patio watching light play on the mountains. The hosts are wonderful—thanks for fresh eggs! It’s an easy and lovely drive to Chimayo or even Taos and nice to retreat back into the quiet of this property.
We love coming back to this lovely casita to soak in the peacefulness, the beautiful views and the calming sounds of nature just being herself! Mornings on the patio are a little slice of heaven.
Lovely, quiet, comfortable, unforgettable (in a good way!)
The adobe was redone to create an inviting, comfortable getaway between Santa Fe and Taos. The furnishings seemed to have been picked to create a cosy, relaxing home that has everything you need to step away from daily life. It’s quiet, with stargazing opportunities, and rambles around the rural, artsy neighborhood. The host makes a great neighbor..friendly but not intrusive. We’d go back in a second!
We wanted a place to recharge and escape from our hectic life. This place is off the beaten path and lovely. The stars at night are glorious. A short trek through beautiful country to either Santa Fe or Taos. Quiet, peaceful, comfy! The hooting owl and light snow made it picture perfect. Our hosts were helpful and accommodating. We will definitely stay there again next time we head that way.
The location is remote but beautiful. Truchas is a ways away from everything but if you’re looking for quiet and getting away this is a great rental.
We were greeted by the host dog named Buddy and the host Ben showed up soon after we arrived. We needed an extension cord to run our Roku on the TV and Ben showed up in minutes delivering one.
Loved staying here and I would definitely recommend it. Lots of room and it feels like home!!!
Lets start with the beautiful drive to the Casita. Gorgeous quaint rustic scenery. The Casita is situated with views from all directions. The checkin was so easy and the owners were very quick with all communication. The inside is so stunning and cozy it was really ideal for what i was looking for, decompress and enjoy.. I hope whoever reads stays longer then 2 days, because its just not enough. The owners have thought of everything and you'll really need nothing. There is also so much to see and do in all seasons. Thank you for sharing ypur stunning home with me..
We really enjoyed our stay at Annette and Ben's! Their adobe was one of the nicest places we've stayed, very comfortable to come back to after our hikes, had the necessary kitchen supplies including a good assortment of basic spices and condiments to cook some of our own meals and was in a beautiful location. Ben brought us fresh eggs, shared hike suggestions and was great at getting back to us. Their place is in a very rural area which was perfect for us. We loved sitting outside on the patio listening to the many birds while we enjoyed lunch or a snack after one of our hikes. If you enjoy rural life or need to get away from the city, I highly recommend Annette and Ben's adobe!
Beautiful home and amazing views. All of the interior had hand hewn wood doors, furniture, hinges, etc., with all of the modern amenities (designer kitchen). We literally did not want to leave the property; however the home is an easy drive to Rancho de Chimayo or Tesuque Market for dinner, and Santa Fe or Taos for an easy day or afternoon trip to visit galleries, museums, etc. There is grocery shopping nearby in Espanola (i.e., Walmart, etc.). Be sure to check out Sugar Nymphs, a close by restaurant. We prefer staying outside of Santa Fe to avoid the traffic and noise. This is is a great place to stay if you want to explore the entire area including Colorado (take a day trip to Durango or Pegosa Springs). The casita is quiet, a great place to relax and recharge.
Property is out of the way providing the privacy we wanted! Super nice and clean inside. Beautiful views of the mountains. Owner is super nice and helpful. Would definitely stay again!!!
The property is absolutely beautiful and it was very calming and comfortable. Ben was very responsive to our communication. The property was beautifully furnished and the owner shared fresh eggs with us. Everything was just as it was listed and check- in was simple. We will love to stay here again.
