About this property

Private, 3BR Bishop's Lodge Villa, Minutes from Plaza, Stunning 360 Degree Views

Our property was listed on VRBO in 2016. This stunning three bedroom, three bathroom villa is located in the Bishop's Lodge Villas adjacent to the Bishop's Lodge Ranch Resort & Spa. There are completely unobstructed 360 degree, panoramic views of the Jemez and Sangre de Cristo Mountains, yet the location is only four miles north of the Plaza!

The home is in the less densely populated, lower section of the Villas, offering the most privacy. We had the first selection of the Bishop's Lodge Villas, and opted for privacy, serenity, and spectacular views. There is a swimming pool (open Friday of Memorial Day weekend to end of Labor Day weekend) behind our villa that is shared with only the 6 other villas in our section and is very lightly used. The vast majority of the time it is empty.

The Pueblo-revival style, freestanding villa with wood-beamed ceilings has a fully-equipped kitchen with a gas stove, full oven, microwave and large refrigerator. Meals can be served at the granite counter area or at the adjacent dining room table that comfortably seats six, eight if needed.

The home's large, great room has a leather queen sleeper sofa, TV with a Premium Cable Package, and kiva fireplace. This gorgeous, welcoming sitting area opens onto a large patio where you can enjoy the same breathtaking views as the great room. The gas barbecue grill, and patio chairs and table, offer an inviting dining option.

The three bedrooms are furnished in classic Spanish style. The turquoise and red-accented master bedroom suite has a king bed, TV, and kiva fireplace. The en suite bathroom has both a shower and a whirlpool tub. The middle bedroom has two twin beds and overlooks the Jemez Mountains. The third bedroom is easily mistaken for the master bedroom and has a king bed, TV, kiva fireplace, and lovely views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and Ski Santa Fe. Both the second and third bedrooms have a shower/bath tub and separate sink area.

The home is adjacent to 200 acres of the Santa Fe National Forest, and several hiking trails are easily accessible. Many of Santa Fe's over 300 restaurants are within a short drive. Uber taxi service is readily available.

In July, 2025, Travel & Leisure magazine
named Santa Fe the #1 travel destination in America “for its natural beauty and food scene.” The largest nearby airport is Albuquerque (ABQ), slightly more than an hour away. Flights are readily available from most U.S. cities, and the airport is easy to navigate once you arrive. Rental car service is available, too. It is a direct route via I-25 from Albuquerque to Santa Fe. Once in Santa Fe, the villa is easy to find.
Flights into Santa Fe Airport (SAF) are available from Denver (DEN), Dallas/Ft. Worth (DFW), and Phoenix (PHX). SAF is a 25 minute drive from the villa. Rental cars are available at SAF.

Pets allowed, with owner’s texted approval. Pet fee of $195 PER PET

Great property

This home was wonderful for our group of 6 - 3 bedrooms with 3 baths. Great view and privacy and our hosts were so responsive. The coffee maker did not work and they immediately got us a new one. Everything worked out so well. Very clean and we were given very clear instructions.

Great Getaway just outside of downtown Santa Fe

We had a wonderful week long stay! The property location was so private and quiet, beautiful setting in the mountains just outside of the national forest. Could not ask for a better location! The property owner was great with communication and made the check in/check out process very easy. Furniture and room layouts were great for our family - kids each had their own beds. Kitchen had basic cooking utensils/pots/pans so you can make some meals during your stay. Plenty of linens, pillows, blankets, etc. provided, pool towels too. Having a washer/dryer was a huge plus We would love to stay here again on our next trip to santa fe!

EXTRAORDINARY EXPERIENCE!

We've been to Santa Fe many times over the past 35 years, but first time to stay in this Bishops Lodge Villa. We were extremely pleased with the entire extraordinary experience! We were there May 30 to June 4 and it was some of the best days of our lives! BEST VIEWS we've ever had in Santa Fe, with no other dwellings in sight and spellbinding, panoramic views!!! The villa was beautiful, clean, and spacious, with a fully equipped kitchen and very comfortable beds. The cherry on top was that we got to have our little dog Wally Woo Woo with us! We can't wait to go back and stay in this same villa again! Thank you and God Bless our wonderful hosts!

LOVE THIS HOME !!!

We come to Santa Fe with our family every summer. We always try to rent this villa and have been successful 13 times out of the 17 summers we have been coming to Danta Fe. Steve and Ellen are such wonderful owners and are always avaliable to help with any questions and concerns. This home is well stocked with cookware and anything you would need to fix a great dinner . I cant say enough about how lovely the home is . The views are spectacular. All in all just a fantastic place to be with family. A short drive to the square and many resturants. We love this place and cant wait to come again next summer !!! Thanks again to our wonderful hosts !!! Ths Rhoades Clan 2023

Awesome

We were 2 families of four. The house was great. The kids shared the middle bedroom where there was space to add a queen inflatable mattress and the 2 master suites were private and spacious. The best part- unbelievable sunsets and a perfectly situated outdoor dining table. There’s a semi private heated pool right next to the home that we used almost every day. We were the only guests there. We took advantage of the scenic hike right outside the door. Santa Fe is a short 10 min drive down the old Spanish Trail. Overall we had a wonderful time and our host, Steve, was informative, thorough, and communicative. We hope to be back!

Beautiful View

The views from our Villa were beautiful & Steve was always easy to contact via text. That being said, we offer some suggestions for improving future visits for all. There was an unpredicted & uncontrollable plumbing situation that happened shortly after our arrival & it impacted our stay for a couple of days. Hopefully that will not happen again for guests. Some suggestions for the near future is better preparation of the kitchen area for cooking guests—only one kitchen towel & no dish cloths, no spare propane tank when we ran out in the middle of dinner preparations—more trash bags (we ran out & had to buy more)—no kleenex in the house anywhere. Carpet in the twin room was filthy & definitely needed more than a vacuuming (cleaning deposit was large enough to cover this). Screens & patio doors need some maintenance attention. Since there are no ceiling fans, we would recommend purchasing a third fan since there are only two in the house. Also suggest some painting in the dining room area. This is a lovely villa, but could use a little sprucing up!!

Perfect for our group

This place was perfect for our group of 3 couples to stay in on our recent visit to Santa Fe. We enjoyed watching the hummingbirds while sitting on the patio. The view is beautiful. The layout of the property was also perfect for us. A place to gather and also a place for quiet if desired.

Stunning Sunsets

The property met all our needs. Many dinners spent on the patio watching the sunset, the community pool gave the kids a perfect excursion to cool off each day, and the views from the main pool were also incredible. A great spot for happy hour while the kids cool off. Bishops lodge was just a short walk down the hill, we fed carrots to the horses, walked the grounds, and snacked and had margaritas on the terrace. The ride into town for dinners and Canyon road was very short and convenient. A very lovely place for our family and friends!

Fabulous 360’ views of the Sangre de Cristos

We were visiting with extended family, ages 4yo through 70 yo. It was a fabulous gathering place. It was close enough to Santa Fe to easily go into town. The view, however, at the condo was so magnificent we’d frequently decide to bring dinner iin and eat on the patio. Highly recommend!!

About the host

Hosted by Steve Kohn

Host profile image
We hail from Chicago and New Jersey. We have lived near the Jersey shore; on Sanibel Island and Captiva Island, Florida; in the mountains of Colorado just west of Denver; and are now settled in Santa Fe. We chose Santa Fe because of the diversity of cultural activities; the amazing array of art galleries; the terrific, weather and short winter; and the hundreds of inviting restaurant options.

Why they chose this property

Bishop's Lodge Villas are located within minutes of the Plaza in the center of Santa Fe, yet are surrounded by mountains and numerous hiking trails that go for miles. You would have no idea you were near any city! We were fortunate enough, pre-construction, to have the first selection of building sites within Bishop's Lodge Villas, and opted for privacy and knockout views in all directions. It is great having a pool so close that is shared with only a few other villas and is very lightly used. Bishop's Lodge riding stable is only a five minute walk down the hill, but not in our view.

What makes this property unique

The Villa layout is very roomy, yet cozy. The kitchen and dining area open up to a gracious, large living room with an unparalleled view. All those areas have very high ceilings, accenting the spaciousness. The Villa is completely private, as it is located on a point, away from other homes. The 3 kiva fireplaces, in rooms accented with beautiful wood beams, enhance the winter coziness.
