This was our second stay here (the first in 2023), and we’d return again. Our main focus was again on winter birding in the area, and while many of our offsite locations were a bit less birdy for us, putting some seed out at this property will reward you with lots of nice species, including the always popular Gambel’s Quail. All in all, a well located property for our purposes, and the host is very responsive to any concerns that might arise during your stay.
My family really enjoyed our stay at this and the house is as beautiful as the pictures. I would stay again with my family had so many more new memories.
We needed to get away for a few days and found this little gem. The house was very organized, exceptionally clean & excellent view of the lake. Make certain to bring binoculars!
We loved the mid century furnishings and the art on the wall was eclectic!
My family really enjoyed our stay here. The house has lots of character : mid-century furniture, board games, comfortable couches and a large outdoor patio. We spent our time hiking from the property directly to the lake and swimming with our kiddos. Michele was extremely responsive and helpful during our stay.
It was a beautiful bungalow with fantastic views from the deck . There was plenty of room , large open floorplsn . I was impressed with every area clean and neat ... i look forward to booking this place again . The perfect getaway location ..
Stayed here for work. The view from the deck is awesome. The houe is set up weirdly. It was clean and comfortable. The view was awesome and a shotrt walk to the lake. The parking was less then desired due to soft sand by the front door.
Michele's place has a lot of character and is very cozy. This was our first time visiting Elephant Butte Lake. We were surprised with how quiet it is there. Our 3 year old had a blast collecting rocks & shells by the lake. Michele was a great host. She was very kind, and promptly answered all of our questions.
The view from the balcony is breathtaking. The house has many movies and games to entertain and the lake is about 100-150 yard walk from the property. The owner was very responsive to my questions. There doesn’t seem to be much to do in the town, but Truth or Consequences isn’t a far drive away. The property is difficult to find with GPS.

Thank you for confirming that everything worked! We do our best to make sure everything is functioning properly for our guests' visits. You are absolutely correct in that there is only one bathroom in the house. We do have an additional outdoor shower to help rinse off the excess sand from the beach and fun outdoor activities.
I am sorry to hear that you felt the heating units were too loud and that the noise detracted from your overall experience in our home. The wall unit in the den is older, but we did replace the lake side unit this spring with a more efficient model. We also provide two smaller, plug in room heaters that can be used anywhere in the home and are very quiet.
Property was a little difficult to find with GPS but thanks to Michele's directions we found it fairly easy. Great view of the lake with direct walking access to the lake. Check in process was easy and contactless. House is older but fairly recently remodeled. Easily fit our family of 5 with our pets. Loved being so close to the lake, and again the views spectacular. Biggest issue we had was ants in the kitchen, but that was addressed by Michele quickly. Driveway is steep and unpaved but could get in and out with our minivan with little issue. Overall a good place to stay at a great location. Michele was a great host and would definitely come back again.
We stayed her for four weeks in January 2023 and would definitely stay again. The property is one of several “cottages” in the Rock Canyon enclave which is surrounded by Elephant Butte Lake State Park and has a variety of well kept properties from new adobe structures to smaller trailers. When we were there, it was very quiet, though seasonal activity was just starting to pick up when we left. Access to the property is from Hare Drive, and the driveway is literally on the corner Hare and Rock Canyon Road. There is a street sign for Hare Drive, but still a bit tricky to spot the first time. The host suggests parking a bit up the drive from the house unless the vehicle has awd because some of the sand is quite soft. We did not have awd, followed the hosts advice, and were fine. As someone else noted, there is a neighbor with dogs and the dogs frequently do get out of the neighbors enclosed yard. Fortunately they are very friendly if a bit rambunctious. We had our two dogs with us, so there was some occasional barking at first, but no confrontations etc. The host is well aware of the dog issue, and is actively trying to find a solution. Inside the space was very clean and larger than we anticipated. All appliances etc. worked well, including the wall mounted ac/heat units. Wi-Fi is via a cellular hot spot and worked very well for us, though we did exceed the data cap at one point, likely because we were streaming video. Fortunately the host added more capacity for us, and there are dozens of dvd’s to choose from rather than streaming movies. We can’t speak to summer activity at the lake, but for our purposes (bird/wildlife photography in the area) it was a great location. If you visit, bring some bird seed to put out; we can guaranty you will see some nice birds, including several Gambel’s Quail.
Very quiet house on lake. Lake was low while we were here, but still plenty to do. Had fun exploring a few small towns around the area. Hillsboro isn’t far and had a general store with great food. Plenty of room for our family of 4. Golf nearby. We had a blast
