About this property
Remodeled 150 Year old Adobe, In historic New Mexico Village
A fully remodeled 1100 square foot adobe home, with one large bedroom and a fully equipped kitchen, living room, bathroom with a walk in shower. Situated on the High Road to Taos in historic Truchas New Mexico. The large windows in the bedroom fully frame the view of the Truchas Peaks, which at 13,100 feet dominate the surrounding countryside. There is also an additional 400 foot covered portal for a relaxation during your breakfast dining or happy hour.
The adobe was fully remodeled 10 years ago with a new kitchen and bathroom - many of the old elements such as the vigas and adobe walls were retained. The casita is equipped with traditional details including hand carved furniture, plastered walls and wooden floors.
Solar panels have also been installed within the past 5 years to reduce our carbon footprint.

We loved this beautiful casita! Great restoration to a historic home and an amazing location. Very peaceful setting with lots of wonderful places to visit and stunning landscapes in the area. Ben and Annette are the perfect hosts and it was great to meet them.
Its hard to imagine anywhere better to stay if you are in search of beauty, solitude and grace. The hosts were perfect, the property magical. The listing is way understated, this is the place you have been looking for if you want to take in the beauty of the high road and make a few wonderful meals for yourself.
Our second visit. Beautiful historic home and town, great hosts. The best place for a relaxing getaway with pristine views and quietude We ll be back, many thanks to the hosts.
Enjoyable place to stay very clean very modern with the accent of a nostalgic Casita enjoyed my stay immensely couldn’t have picked a better place beautiful scenery. Everywhere you look will definitely be scheduling that exact Casita again.

Thanks Philip - hope you made it back to Florida safely
This beautifully restored adobe is perfect for a peaceful, quiet getaway. We loved taking long walks in the cool clean air and resting in the lovely patio with a gorgeous view of the mountain scenery. When we could tear ourselves away from our comfortable nest, it wa a short trip to Chimayo and its sacred and culinary attractions. The road to Taos is longer but scenic and interesting. Owners Annette and Ben are the best hosts!
The property is absolutely beautiful and it was very calming and comfortable. Ben was very responsive to our communication. The property was beautifully furnished and the owner shared fresh eggs with us. Everything was just as it was listed and check- in was simple. We will love to stay here again.

We are glad you had a great stay- until we see you again
Property is out of the way providing the privacy we wanted! Super nice and clean inside. Beautiful views of the mountains. Owner is super nice and helpful. Would definitely stay again!!!
Beautiful, well maintained cabin perfect for a few days vacation. We loved the porch where we sat and watched the sky in the evening. It is a bit out there though so come prepared with whatever you will need.
very peaceful and relaxing. This is a hidden gem. No road noise. Absolutely quiet. So many bright stars. You don't see that in the city. Loved the backyard view of the mountains and the morning sunrise.
Pictures don’t do justice to how beautiful inside & out!
This is a beautiful casita with a great Mountain View! The owners were always quick to respond to any questions we had, and everything we needed was provided, such as paper products, cleaners & coffee. The place was really clean and comfortable. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay!
Pictures do not due it justice! A perfect gem in northern New Mexico. Nearby lakes for kayaking/fishing, walking distance to art galleries and historic town. Hosts were delightful and very accommodating! Making this an annual stay!

Thank you Kelly for the nice words - but the 3 out of 5 stars is by far the worst rating we have received - pretty disappointed.
Ben
The house was gorgeous including the furniture; a New Mexican palace! The location in Truchas was beautiful and the views of the mountains from the back porch were stunning! It was beautifully quiet and the air was clean and sweet. We would love to visit again!
Lovely natural setting with views. The restored adobe house is spacious, beautifully decorated with Southwest flair. Well-functioning kitchen, nice living room and comfortable bedroom. It was quiet, private, and tranquil!
Peaceful. Warm. Inviting. This adobe casita feels like home away from home.

About the host
Hosted by Ben Smiley or Annette Vigil
The house was originally built in the late 1800's by my wife's family. It originally started as a one room adobe, then over the years rooms were added on. When we purchased it 10 years ago it was a three bedroom one bathroom home with last family having 6 kids raised.
We remodeled it into a one bedroom guest house - it is a totally detached home (roughly 150 yards from our house) on an acequia (dating to the 1750's). Attached are pastures where the family has bailed alfalfa for many years.
What makes this property unique
An ideal location for a romantic getaway for two with quiet mountain solitude.
