Great location. We loved all of the painting and photography in the house done by the owner. The house was well stocked with all the basic amenities. My kids loved the book selection. Thanks for letting us stay in your beautiful Casa.
THANK YOU! Michelle and Randy for sharing your beautiful home with our family! The home is fully stocked and ready for any occasion. We enjoyed the courtyard as well as the porch. The ARTWORK is amazing, both the paintings and the photographs! You know when an owner is willing to share their love the home is special! The beds were incredibly comfortable! The furniture is better than being at home. Everything makes you feel special! I hate bragging because I want to book again asap. You can not go wrong with this phenomenal home!
This place is amazing and even better than advertised. This mountainous neighborhood is truly one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed. We had a couple fires in the chiminea and spent hours gazing at the stars and Jupiter through the telescope in the courtyard. 12/10 will absolutely stay here again if ever in the area again.
We loved our stay at Michelle and Richard’s property. The house was clean, organized and contained everything we could have needed. We also really loved all the beautiful art work on the walls. It all felt very authentic. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch and enjoying the sunrise & sunset with the stunning views they have. We also hiked everyday very close to the property. Would highly recommend staying here, we hope to be back!

About the host
Hosted by Michelle and Randy Dubiskas
Michelle and I both grew up in New Mexico, but have spent decades in other states. Our Placitas house is a second home for us to re-enter the Land of Enchantment heading towards retirement. Michelle is an artist and you will notice several of her works on the walls of the house. I am a geologist and avid bird and nature photographer. You will see that we have decorated the house with photos from the area. All of the wall art is available for purchase if desired.
Why they chose this property
Gorgeous views of the Jemez Mountains and mesas overlooking the Rio Grande Valley. Cabezon is a volcanic mountain about 40 miles away and is prominent in Navajo tribal legends. Hiking trails begin at the end of our street and wind into the Placitas Open Space. This is a mountain biking mecca and you will see a lot of riders in the area.
What makes this property unique
This house has a great courtyard for outdoor enjoyment with a chimenea and propane heater as well as local artisan decorated benches.
