About the host
Hosted by Diana Olivar
Cory and I met in Chicago. We would visit the southwest where I was born and raised and he would often ask, “Why don’t we live here”? Granted we were usually escaping the Chicago winter and enjoying 60-degree weather. We eventually moved back to my hometown of El Paso, Texas for family reasons where we have lived for the past 10 years. Cory being an adrenaline junkie loves all things outdoors. Although, he loves the El Paso desert and the 330+ days of sunshine (so he can downhill mountain bike and ride motorcycles), he also craves the winter slopes. Our 11-year-old son is doing a great job of keeping up with Cory on the black diamonds. We found the perfect compromise when we landed on Casa de la Vaca in Santa Fe! A beautiful, serene mountain get away nestled in the foothills of magical Canoncito. It’s a short drive for us and we love to stop along the way in Albuquerque. It is so kid friendly that we do trips to the museums, Explora, zoo, Mama’s minerals and our favorite Sawmill Market. In the summer, we can escape the heat in EP and with so much to do in Santa Fe we have a great place to visit all year round. We couldn’t be more excited to enjoy our second home and share it with family & friends and now thanks to platforms like VRBO with guests when we are not in town. A bit of a win, win. We love to travel and enjoy good cuisine, so Santa Fe really fits the bill. There are so many great restaurants, hiking trails, museums, spas, festivals, the opera, skiing, farmer’s markets, the second largest art market in the country, nearby Taos and Chimayo and the list goes on and on. It really is a cosmopolitan gem in the high desert. The VRBO vacation rental opportunity has allowed us to do what we love; meet new people, travel, and share our stories.
We hope we get to meet you and hear your story.
Best,
Diana and Cory
Why they chose this property
Casa de la Vaca II (two bedroom) Entire home, sweeping views, secluded in the foothills of Canoncito Tranquil and Serene. The main home on the right has two bedrooms and two bathrooms and sleeps 5. Nestled up in the foothills with panoramic views sits this Canoncito/Santa Fe Charm house on secluded 5 acres, just a mere 15 miles (20-minute drive) to Santa Fe’s historic downtown plaza. Serene and exquisite, you will encounter majestic Mountain views and with almost no light pollution you will experience the most incredible evening star gazing! You will be surrounded by gorgeous local plants, flowers, hummingbirds, and pines. This peaceful sanctuary is surrounded with birds and wildlife. Enjoy the gas grill, patio seating, break out the yoga mats and take in the breathtaking views! Namaste. All-wheel drive is always recommended especially during winter months, in case of snow. You will drive up 800 ft of unpaved road to reach our private gravel road to our home. Convenient parking is available in front of the stonework on either entrance.
Cleanliness is of the utmost importance. To help ensure your safety and well-being, we have a cleaning service who is utilizing best practices for enhanced cleaning and disinfecting vacation rental properties.
We also have the absolute best internet -100mbps for Canoncito. So, if you must work you can do so without a problem. The smart TV is available for use with your personal streaming platforms. Board games, cards, and books are also available for family entertainment.
What makes this property unique
Other things to note: Cuisine -We love to cook and have some essentials in the kitchen for your convenience. At the nearby Eldorado community, you can find gas, and groceries at the Agora market. There are also a few local eateries we like to support. Of course, we have Whole Foods, Trader Joes's and other chain supermarkets in downtown Santa Fe. You happen to be in one of the food capitals of the world so take advantage of the amazing cuisine that Santa Fe has to offer.
Pets: We welcome well-behaved pooches. Sorry, felines only dogs are allowed. Pets are allowed with advanced approval at $100 per pet. This fee is included as we take added measures to thoroughly disinfect and sanitize the home to ensure there is no trace of a pet after each stay. We appreciate your cooperation in crating your pets when left alone and not allowing them on any furniture. We know our pets are family and we want them to travel with us, we have a cockapoo of our own, so we know. We also need to ensure that we respect all of our guests who may have sensitives or allergies and strive to deliver the best experience in our homes.
Nature and your surroundings: You are surrounded by a 4,000 acres nature preserve with miles upon miles of hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails. These trails are very well marked and range from easy strolls to more strenuous hikes. As you drive down Ojo da la Vaca road you will see two areas to park to access the trail heads. We have hiking sticks available during your stay, adjust them and set out and explore. The items in the house are for our guests, so please feel free to enjoy. After a full day feel free to set up the portable massage table which has disposable covers for the headrest. There are also top rated spas in Santa Fe to choose from. There is so much to do and see in Santa Fe and the surrounding areas. Please check out the Welcome book for our personal recommendations.
We look forward to hosting you during your stay in Santa Fe!
Diana & Cory
