About this property

"Mountain Escape," Our cozy mountain home, Quiet Neighborhood

4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, deck, screened in porch, garage
Come ready to breath in the fresh mountain air and relax in this great mountain home. We named it "Mountain Escape" because it is our place to escape.
The back wall of windows in the living room looks out to a great view. Stepping out on the deck you are in the tops of the trees. There is a hot tub/ spa for relaxing on the deck. Each bedroom has a King bed and en suite bathroom. The basement bedroom has a bunkbed as well as King bed and bathroom. Also, there are 2 portable cribs (bring your own sheet for portable cribs) and a high chair.

This place is amazing! It’s right next to two golf courses. The house is in the middle of a country club, so we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay and make some great memories during the holidays. Jan was super helpful and responsive during our stay. We’ll definitely be back!

Everything was great and we had a great time. The only thing that we found that wasn't good was both ovens were very dirty. We preheated one and it smoked up the house so we had to clean it so we could use it.

Jan always responded in a timely manner whenever I needed to contact her. The house is in a beautiful area in Alto, NM and is supplied with everything you could need for an AMAZING weekend. Four bedrooms with kingsized beds and your own bathroom in each was great for us! My family is already trying to figure out another time to come back.
