About this property
Elegant Getaway on Continental Divide In Pinos Altos, 7 miles from Silver City
Located on Continental Divide at 7K ft. in mountain hamlet of Pinos Altos and 7 miles from Silver City, the newly constructed and fully furnished guest house offers an elegant passive-solar getaway on the edge of the Gila National Forest. Trails lead from guesthouse into the forest, peaks, and canyons of the Pinos Altos Range.
Pinos Altos Casita has a full kitchen (with dishwasher) and utility room with full-sized washer and dryer, as well a large storage room for your gear, bikes, and luggage. One bedroom and a loft with bedding for other guests. Porch, outside dining area, and garden.
Your mountain retreat home is only several blocks from downtown Pinos Altos where most guests enjoy dinner and music at Buckhorn Saloon. Drive north through forest to Gila Cliff Dwellings, and explore wilderness, river, and great hiking and biking trails leading directly from the casita.
*** Guests are welcome to bring their pet dogs, and there is a $25 daily fee or $125 weekly fee, per pet. (If fee charged by Vrbo/Homeaway doesn't include this fee, you can pay when you arrive. Thanks.)

Why they chose this property
We came to Pinos Altos in 1996 because we didn't want to raise our children or spend the rest of our lives in a big city (Albuquerque) -- and because we have always lover this part of New Mexico for its climate, Gila National Forest, and the vibrant small town of Silver City. Our property, which we bought with friends, is on the edge of Pinos Altos (about 250 people, 7 miles from Silver City, and 1,000 ft. higher). We built a beautiful straw-bale and adobe passive-solar home with a view of the Pinos Altos range. We can bike, hike, and occasionally cross-country sky directly from our home, as you can from our cottage.
