So nice and relaxing !

Perfect place to stay ! Owner/ manager super nice. Glass porch is nice and you will want to stay all day there with the elk grazing nearby. I actually have rentals, and this is a good representation of the best !

Our Home Away From Home

Beautiful home with all the amenities in a quiet neighborhood. The location is perfect. There is a grocery store nearby as well as a wide variety of restaurants, bars and shopping. There is definitely wildlife in the area and on several days we saw both elk and deer crossing the roads and or hanging out in people’s yards. Easy and pleasant drives to White Sands National Park and Roswell. Golden Gallo was our home away from home !

Comfy

The place was nice; but does need some work. Stove is a concern because of being cracked. The microwave really doesn’t heat the food. Beds very comfortable, bedding needs replacement showing wear!

Dirty

The master bath and dressing area floors hadn’t been cleaned in ages. I wiped up mounds of hair, dust and dirt when sopping up water on the floor from the walk in shower. House has nice amenities, but dated and worn. Cleanliness aspect destroyed any comfort.

Peaceful and Relaxing

This property was such a pleasure for our little getaway. It was clean, filled with amenities and was set up for relaxation both inside and out. We even saw a deer with her babies our back. The host was very considerate and accommodating. I cannot wait to plan another stay at this property.
