About this property

Dual Master Bedroom: Designer Accommodations for the Long-Sta

Evidenced by the photography, narratives and passion of companion properties listed on this site- and seared into the American imagination by the paintings of Georgia O'Keeffe- the Piedra Lumbre basin captivates; a thin place. From the edge of a mesa, Casita á Medida surveys it all: red cliffs forming Abiquiu Lake to the East, Ghost Ranch expanding to the North, Chama River Valley to the West and El Pedernal dominating the horizon to the South. Filling between are the ranges of Sangre de Cristo and the Jemez, Santa Fe National Forest and Kit Carson National Forest. And dark sky nights.

To experience this area takes time, a lifetime pursuit of many. Days of hiking, fishing, boating, rafting, discovering petroglyphs, searching for fossils/ historic remnants; trips to Santa Fe, Taos, Ojo Caliente, Navajo Lake, Heron Lake, Chama, Pagosa Springs, Silverton and Durango, CO. Casita á Medida is designed with the long stay in mind. Built in the spirit of Northern New Mexico with deep deference to the surrounding landscape, Casita á Medida is a compound style retreat with one building housing dual master suites and another the great room, forming a protected patio third living space. The vast windows frame the art listed above (follow the changing forms of El Pedernal while preparing dinner; overlook the serenity of Ghost Ranch as you relax in the soaking tub). Inside melts to out. Designed to be completely off-grid, the site also features sustainable design such as passive solar mass, solar heat-boost for the domestic hot water and radiant floor heat, as well as gray watering, rain catchment and Holzer spirited permaculture supporting landscaping designed to further the circle.

With dual master suites (featuring a King and Queen or Queen and two twins) and a separated great room/kitchen structure, Casita á Medida can be modified to meet the needs for your stay. Allow yourself the time to be able to appreciate the experience. Allow yourself permission that the enjoyment - and biggest achievement- was that the day was.

Wonderful location!

3rd time going and will go again! It’s our “home away from home”. Beautiful scenery abounds in cozy home . If you are looking for peace and quiet this is your place. Would stay forever if we could. The home owners are always available if and when needed. If I could give it 10 stars, I’d give it 11.

Did not stay.

The property views are stunning and beautiful. However, the property does not have air conditioning and it was 90 degrees inside the home when we arrived. Tried to cool the main home down with the ceiling fan and cross breeze with open doors without success. Tried to cool the separate bedrooms down with 2 fans found in the closets. Again, no success. After an hour it had only come down to 88 degrees in the main house. My friend and I left due to the heat after verifying with the owner that indeed, there was no air conditioning. We were on the property less than 2 hours. We did not stay at the property due to no air conditioning and my friend having a medical condition that was exacerbated by heat making it unsustainable for us. My fault for not verifying that there was air conditioning for the summer month (last week in June). Views were amazing.

Stunning Beauty & Peace

Be prepared to witness so much of the wild beauty of NM. Casita a’ Medida sets on the rim of Abiquiu lake high above the worries of the world, 360 degree views. The privacy, the quiet, the beauty was just what the doctor ordered. A few things I would have wanted to know upon my arrival: I recommend a four wheel drive or suv - you will be traveling on rocky dirt road for approx. 3 miles. I would also recommend arriving in day light - it can be a little tricky to find - our Garmin worked miracles. There is only one market in the area - Bodes. I recommend stocking up for everything that you will need in Santa Fe, including firewood! Cable/Satellite TV was not available to us because of the device they used to screen share did not support Apple phones or computers. Wifi worked just fine! I hope to return to Casita a’ Medida because truly it is one of the most beautiful places on the planet to visit!

Amazing residence and location, a few glitches

We stayed at this property 10 years ago and were delighted to pay another visit. We love these mesas and this particular location is a stunner. The well-designed two-part residence is great for two couples with different schedules. There were lots of condiments and pantry items from previous guests (though one would have to guess about the age of some of them). Some correctable issues: I had to ask for entry instructions with less than 48 hrs before our arrival. There was no manual with instructions for TV, things to do, checkout info. The kitchen appeared clean, but roaches ate through plastic bags of dry goods leaving lots of poop all over. Battery-operated things (DVD player, window shades) had dead batteries (none on site); a bedside light needed a new bulb; working the lock on the French doors was hit and miss; no basic tools to make small fixes; one of the mattresses in the twin bed room is totally shot. The worst thing was that the interior doorknob to the bedroom was sitting on the counter inside the door. The first person in closed the door and couldn't get out without someone opening it from the outside (fortunately we didn't all go in together!). We had to tape the latch in so it wouldn't engage, and then keep locking and unlocking the door so the wind didn't blow it open.Clearly the knob hadn't worked in a while, and the last person who left the house would have known it was inside and unattached to the door. Very hard to understand why this hadn't been fixed.

Maximum Seclusion

I choose Casita á Medidato for my annual think week. Ultra secluded and quite frankly so cold outside that there really wasn't much to do other than focus on my work. As a northerner I underestimated the cold of January in New Mexico, it was approximately 6 degrees Fahrenheit or colder every morning with steady 10 to 15 mph winds then reaching a high of about 30 degrees. The overnight temp indoors was between 59 to 63 degrees so long johns and slippers are an absolute must. During the day with full sunlight max indoor temp is 70, the home has radiant floor heat so instant heat gratification is a no go. I loved the layout of Casita á Medida, the home is separated into 2 living spaces, kitchen/living room and bathrooms/sleeping spaces. Killer views everyday, bring binoculars! I watched about 40+ Elk, several Golden Eagles, a few Bobcats, and even places way off in the distance. I cooked meals everyday in the kitchen which was fully stocked with just about everything. The water is very soft and alkaline, it almost has soapy oiliness to it that leaves spots on all the dishes. Do not be alarmed that things look dirty, just be sure to use the drinking water provided or bring your own. I left feeling grateful to have the opportunity to stay here, I'm sure I'll be back again one day soon. Maybe in the fall instead of January!

Jaw Dropping Views but...

Gorgeous location & incredible views. Spent most days just sitting on patio for hours & watching colors change as sun moved across sky. Also great places to visit & eat at Abiquiu, Ghost Ranch, O'Keeffe's museum, Espanola & the Chama River. However, house was not in good order. Management directed me to House Guide book. There wasn't one. Leftover food from previous guests... 2 open peanut butter jars had been in the pantry for who knows how long, salad dressings, butter... other guests' food that should have been thrown away. The freezer was so full that there was no room for my things. Never been to a vacay rental that had previous guests' used food and leftovers. Frankly, kind of disgusting. I prefer not to clean up after previous guests. Cooking utensils, not maintained. There was really only one usable pot. The others had stick resistent surfaces that were actually peeling off. No way to use the pots without the teflon surface being part of the meal. There were few other options and none of it was clean. There were broiling pans stored in the bottom of the oven that had clearly been used and not washed before storing. The house was not in good order. Many lights were out throughout the inside and outside of house. None of the remote controlled shades in bedrooms worked so there was no shutting the shades if you like sleeping in. One of the showers was not much more than a trickle and was useless. I would not stay here again.

AH-MAZING!

Absolutely wonderful home! The view of Lake Abiquiu and the surrounding mesas are without a doubt, one of the most beautiful places we have seen… (and my husband and I have been to a lot of places). The home was inviting, very clean, with open spaces, a cozy fireplace and the view from the master bath… well you will have to see it to believe it! Absolutely perfect for the two of us. We love exploring , hiking and we did not even need to leave the house to do so! Ghost Ranch - Georgia O’Keeffe’s hideaway - is just 15 min from the house. There is so much to do in the area and we only scratched the surface. Justin and Roslyn were just as wonderful - warm, friendly and easily available if needed. Looking at my calendar now to book again for next year!!

Peace and relaxation

Wow! This is the most peaceful rental with the most incredible view! My wife and I had a wonderful time. Just sitting outside relaxes and rejuvenates. The stars are amazing! The house worked out very well and was comfortable. Wifi is iffy, but if you have a hotspot, you are good to go. The drive is about 3.5 miles of rough road but any vehicle can do it in good weather. Also, check under your hood. Pack rats like to build nests there!

Immerse in Nature and Solitude

After reading the reviews I had high expectations and wow, just blown away. Absolutely stunning piece of property. lots of good hiking around the house. We drove 45 minutes to hike the chimney trail at ghost ranch, great hike! We drove 45 minutes to Gallina for a green chile cheeseburger at Pappa Joes Kountry Kitchen, well worth the trip and the drive has stunning views and goes into the pine forests which are beautiful. Highly recommend and we will return!

Incredible, stunning views all around!

If you want to surround yourself in peaceful, gorgeous scenery this property has it in spades. It is in a remote location with teeth jarring & access roads (high clearance vehicles would be best, but we managed in a Ford Focus). Though remote, it makes a great jumping off point to many interesting nearby destinations. We enjoyed visiting Santa Fe (1 hr. drive), Los Alamos & the Bradbury Science Museum (closed Mon.) (1 hr. drive); Bandelier NHP - great hiking; & wonderful archeological site - (1 hr drive); Chama, NM (Tierra Wools, Combres & Toltec Railway) - 1 1/2 hr drive; Valles Caldera National Preserve (1 1/2 hr drive); Ghost Ranch (1/2 drive) and many others! The casita provides a comfortable, welcoming retreat. The night sky is spectacular and truly amazing! We loved staying and relaxing here and will return in the future.

A genuinely luxurious Abiquiu, New Mexico experience

The home possesses exquisite architectural and interior design, situated perfectly on a bluff surrounded by stunning mountains, the lake and rolling plains. The living/kitchen space has vast expanses of glass taking perfect advantage of those views. Radiant floor heating kept us comfortable in the snow and frigid temps. Foremost were the thoughtful provisions for comfort. We enjoyed viewing tv on the comfy leather wrap-around sofa in the great room, and the easily navigated, well- appointed kitchen. We quickly adapted to the unique "compound style" arrangement with the bedroom unit separated from living/kitchen unit. It's a short sprint across the covered breezeway, even in pajamas! Additionally, walking the neighborhood was pleasant, scenic and completed the perfect kind of get-away we were hoping for.

Magical

My husband and I drove 20 hours to stay at the Casita. It was worth every minute of the drive there and back. We cannot say enough how wonderful this place truly is to us. We used our week to relax and recharge. No need to even leave the Casita - as views surrounding the property are plenty enough. The joy we felt while at this property can't be beat and we cannot wait to come back next year. The host gave impeccable directions and the app Waze gets you directly to this remote property, so don't worry. The house is very well stocked with almost anything you can think of, but a trip to Bodes will get you by if you forget something. Any inconveniences listed in other reviews are nothing but minor and didn't bother us at all. Book the trip. Leave your worries at home. Rest. And enjoy.

extraordinary location--the best ever

comfortable home, very well stocked (with kitchen equipment) and paper goods, towels, etc. A few things needed repair--a window that didn't close, circuit breakers that went off for no reason, a finicky door lock and we couldn't figure out the TV. those are minor--my major suggestion is for there to be at least one emergency phone number in case you need it. There was none to be found. We were there for 6 nights and really appreciated the beauty and the stupendous views from the setting. I just wish Justin had left a number. Also, you might want to consider ADA compliant toilet seats. Despite the quibbles, we will recommend the place to others.

Breathtaking

This home is a wonderful respite from the busyness of the world. The views are breathtaking from sunrise to sunset, as well as amazing star gazing. Having the two separate buildings was great for being with the group or taking time for yourself. When they say they have everything there…they really mean it! Some of the things I was unsure of (laundry soap, beach towels) were provided! We visited the water three different ways; 1.) walked the steep path down to the dock for a quick jump in the river, 2.) drove to the private “beach”/boat ramp and set-up shop for a day of relaxing and getting in the water when hot, 3.) set up “camp” at the reservoir beach to the right of the boat ramp for a day of sitting in the sun and SUPing. As mentioned in the description wifi is limited. It was wonderful to disconnect and if you want to watch anything I highly recommend downloading before you come. We did not have luck streaming. But we did bring a projector and the wall between the two houses is a perfect place to project a movie under the stars…truly magical. I highly recommend bringing everything you want in the first time (or stopping at Bodes on the way in) because once you are here you don’t want to leave!

Peaceful getaway

Really enjoyed this getaway. If you are looking to unwind away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy some breathtaking views and sunsets, this is a great choice. Well stocked kitchen, comfy beds and sofa. As is common with a remote location, we had some rodent visitors break into our food scraps the first night. Bring along some sealable containers and plenty of drinking water. A quick trip to Bodes will do with most anything you leave behind. Thanks for the memories from this one!
