We have received the NM COVID Safe Certification. We follow the "Stay Safe" guidelines through the American Hotel and Lodging Association. The El Sol ("The Sun") Studio is an economy guest room with a queen-sized bed and inspiring views. Located on a mesa top above Abiquiu Lake, you will wake up every morning with spectacular lake and red rock views. The rooms are glamping at its best - defined as glamorous camping - but with air conditioning, a wonderful bed, private bathroom, hot water and spectacular views! Staying in The Studios is about the 'experience' - unplugging and disconnecting (if you choose to), immersing yourself in your surroundings, taking in the night skies and fresh air, hiking from your door, and recharging your spirit. The guest room is about 150 sq ft and has a queen-sized bed, private bath, an oversized shower, private sliding door entrance, heat, hot water, air conditioning and spectacular views. The guest room is furnished with linens, towels, toiletries, a microwave, toaster oven and K-cup coffee maker. If you need a cooler for food products, just let us know and we will have one outside the room when you check in. We will have a mini fridge available by early July. Shared outside common areas include a BBQ grill, outdoor seating, as well as free parking. ?As small economy guest rooms, the The Studios do not have WiFi (although your cell phone should work fine at the location and you can use your cell as a hot spot) or televisions. Bring all your food and drink provisions with you. Bring prepared foods or plan to prepare simple meals in the microwave, toaster oven or outside on the BBQ. The Studios are perfect additional rooms for nearby vacation home rentals. They are also great lodging options for solo travelers, couples, outdoor artists or those taking workshops at Ghost Ranch. If you don't need a lot of space or a kitchen, The Studios may be a great option for you. There are two separate guest rooms in the secondary building so another couple may be renting the second guest room. We live nearby and are available should you need anything. We generally can respond in person or by text immediately. We do provide a code for the door so you can arrive anytime after the scheduled check-in time for easy self-checking, without needing to coordinate with us. ?All our properties are located outside the village of Abiquiu on Abiquiu Lake. It is about a 20 minute drive to Abiquiu. Stay remotely, yet enjoy conveniences! You are welcome to take advantage of our Mercado (located at The Grand Hacienda Bed and Breakfast in the neighborhood) or order online: gifts, books, cards, local art, bath/body products, jewelry, snacks, food items, and more. There is a wonderful history in this area - from dinosaurs, to Native American pueblos, to Spanish explorers, to cattle wrestlers, to ghosts and witches, to Georgia O'Keeffe - all the way to our current age where the past history and culture blends with the artist colony that Abiquiu has become. The room is located in a gated community off of Abiquiu Lake. You will be stepping into what feels like a Georgia O'Keeffe picture - with the lake and red rocks in front of you and Pedernal standing guard behind you. The Studios are located in a secondary building on an 8 acre property. The room is conveniently located near Ghostranch, Echo Amphitheater, Monastery of Christ in the Desert, Plaza Blanca, Pedernal, and the Carson National Forest. You will also want to explore the Purple Adobe Lavender Farm, rafting the Chama River, the Ra Paulette Cave Tour and Ojo Caliente. You will need a car. During winter months, we recommend a 4WD or AWD as many of the roads in New Mexico are dirt/gravel. The roads back to the studios are dirt/gravel. We understand these are challenging times for travel, but we do believe our remote location away from the crowds provides a perfect setting for these times. While cleanliness has always been a priority, we have now implemented enhanced cleaning and disinfecting procedures at all our properties in between guests. We disinfect all high touch surfaces (light switches, door knobs, etc) as the home is disinfected. We wash all linens in hot water. We have removed decorative pillows and throws. We encourage you to enter the home without shoes. Our staff wear gloves and masks. Finally, we provide for self-check-in so you are able to come and go without contact. We want you to feel safe when you stay at our properties, so do reach out if you have any questions. We recommend purchasing trip insurance in case your travel plans change or if you have concerns about traveling. As a small business, we are significantly affected by cancellations and must adhere to a strict cancellation policy. Although we understand situations arise making cancellations unavoidable, we do not take responsibility for changes to your reservation due to delayed arrivals, early departures, inclement weather, unforeseen changes to travel plans, medical or family emergencies, work conflicts, missed or cancelled flights, pandemics, force majeure, etc. Travel insurance is used to protect your trip in the event of cancellation, or you can self-insure by taking on the risk yourself. Please note that as a small business owner, we cannot act as your travel insurance. After you confirm your booking, we will email you a rental agreement to sign and a request for a security deposit hold on your credit card. This hold is released after you check out provided there are no damages.

We are NM COVID Safe Certified and the winner of the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence Award - the only Abiquiu area vacation home to receive this award. THE EXPERIENCE Prepare for a vacation get-away in a truly magical location with spectacular views, stillness, natural isolation, and rooted in history and culture. This two-bedroom, two-bath home on Abiquiu Lake - with access to the lake from the owner's two private waterfront lots - provides all you need for the perfect get-away. Many of our guests return every year, and we hope you do, too! The Casita del Lago was built into the rocky shore above Abiquiu Lake, and the 22-acre property extends down to the lake (and actually out into the middle of the lake). The home has two bedrooms and two baths; a full and modern kitchen; an open concept family room with a fireplace; a dining area with stunning views; and laundry facilities. The floor-to-ceiling windows capture the amazing views from every direction: Abiquiu Lake, the Chama River, Abiquiu's million-year-old red cliffs, green and purple fields, Cerro Pedernal, Carson National Forest, Ghost Ranch, and more. We subscribe to cable TV and the fastest Internet in the area - and both are offered to you free of charge. We also include charcoal for the BBQ grill, laundry supplies, and many spices/seasonings. We supply the firewood for the outdoor chiminea and fire pit. If you plan to use the indoor fireplace, please bring the appropriate number of Duraflame logs for your use indoors. Outside, you will find heated patios, amazing spots to sit and take in the views, an infrared propane grill, a hot tub built into the rocks, a fire pit overlooking the arroyo, a hiking path to the lake, and 40 acres to explore. The home is conveniently located to visit Ghostranch, Echo Amphitheater, Monastery of Christ in the Desert, Plaza Blanca, Pedernal, and the Carson National Forest.

'Breathtaking,' 'Fabulous,' 'Stellar,' 'Magical' - Casa del Rio, a unique southwestern home awaits those who seek a glimpse into what the West was like – before it was “won.” Casa del Rio offers timeless views of the Rio Chama, Abiquiu Lake, Ghost Ranch - with no other habitation to confound the imagination. The house rests on a mesa about 100 feet above the narrowest part of the Rio Chama, just before it empties into Abiquiu Lake. Guests of the Casa enjoy limited access to the private lakefront. Four circles of stones (tipi rings) found on the land are silent proof that these vistas have been enjoyed by people for hundreds of years. Inside the 1500 square foot house, you will find all the luxuries and amenities of the 21st century. An open floor plan includes a great room, dining area, and kitchen; all under hand-hewn vigas harvested from the San Juan forest. Leather couches, swivel chair, Taos-made furniture - all make it a pleasure to take in the ever changing landscape in any direction. (Be sure to catch the dawn when the morning light descends upon the water). Hand painted retablo and santos, Navaho and Zapotec rugs, prints by RC Gorman, and Georgia O'Keefe all enhance the experience of being immersed in the southwest. The kitchen features granite countertops, energy saving appliances, and an island with cooktop. A 42” LED satellite TV, WiFi, and soundbar provide connection to the modern world. (for those who must) Soft foam, queen size mattresses, resort quality bedding ensure your night’s rest – so you can be prepared for your next day’s adventure... Located in the heart of the Piedra Lumbre (Valley of the Shining Stones) Casa del Rio was designed for outdoor living. Covered portales on the east, north, and west sides provide shade from the ever bright New Mexico sun. The concave shape of the house provides shelter from wind and wraps around an additional 800 square feet of a Colorado red flagstone courtyard. On the courtyard, or under the portal, you will find; a three-burner gas grill, two lounge chairs, a love seat, and table and dining chairs for four. To complete your Abiquiu experience there is an outdoor hot tub positioned for panoramic river and mountain views. For those who prefer, there is also a two-person, heart-shaped bath. Full moon nights are so bright you can see colors on the walls of the river canyon. On moonless nights the stars seem so close you could almost reach up and touch them... Regarding the coronavirus, I would like my guests to know that I take the pandemic very seriously.  In addition to already high standards for cleanliness, all surface areas and commonly touched objects like keys, doorknobs, TV remote, etc. are cleaned and disinfected between visits. The waters of Abiquiu provide an important resting place for migratory birds; a virtual oasis in a land of desert and mountains. Eagles, osprey, geese, and many other species take time to have their needs met on their way to other destinations. Perhaps this description may one day apply to you!

Travel to this home and meet some favulous people in this glorious place." Guest review, 2021. THE EXPERIENCE The Grand Hacienda of Abiquiú Lake is not your typical B&B – it is an adults-only experience, a feast for the senses in a remote and quiet location. Modern luxuries, sophisticated services, green and eco-friendly – think of a small, boutique luxury inn – blended with authentic architecture and inspired design – think adobe and southwestern style. The combination, along with its award-winning hosts, make The Hacienda the best place to stay in gorgeous northern New Mexico. With only three suites, the Hacienda is an serene escape, a retreat nestled on a mesa top overlooking Abiquiu Lake, Ghost Ranch, the Red Cliffs, Pedernal, and plains of red, yellow, purple and green. Dramatically perched on a mesa top overlooking Abiquiú Lake, this brand new, elegant, high-end bed and breakfast offers a luxury experience in a location surrounded by quiet stillness. Located in the middle of Georgia O'Keeffe country, you will feel what she did when saying, "It's something that's in the air – it's different. The sky is different, the wind is different."

There is wonderful hiking, kayaking, rafting, and exploring. The local area is full of history, culture, geology and adventures.

Evidenced by the photography, narratives and passion of companion properties listed on this site- and seared into the American imagination by the paintings of Georgia O'Keeffe- the Piedra Lumbre basin captivates; a thin place. From the edge of a mesa, Casita á Medida surveys it all: red cliffs forming Abiquiu Lake to the East, Ghost Ranch expanding to the North, Chama River Valley to the West and El Pedernal dominating the horizon to the South. Filling between are the ranges of Sangre de Cristo and the Jemez, Santa Fe National Forest and Kit Carson National Forest. And dark sky nights. To experience this area takes time, a lifetime pursuit of many. Days of hiking, fishing, boating, rafting, discovering petroglyphs, searching for fossils/ historic remnants; trips to Santa Fe, Taos, Ojo Caliente, Navajo Lake, Heron Lake, Chama, Pagosa Springs, Silverton and Durango, CO. Casita á Medida is designed with the long stay in mind. Built in the spirit of Northern New Mexico with deep deference to the surrounding landscape, Casita á Medida is a compound style retreat with one building housing dual master suites and another the great room, forming a protected patio third living space. The vast windows frame the art listed above (follow the changing forms of El Pedernal while preparing dinner; overlook the serenity of Ghost Ranch as you relax in the soaking tub). Inside melts to out. Designed to be completely off-grid, the site also features sustainable design such as passive solar mass, solar heat-boost for the domestic hot water and radiant floor heat, as well as gray watering, rain catchment and Holzer spirited permaculture supporting landscaping designed to further the circle. With dual master suites (featuring a King and Queen or Queen and two twins) and a separated great room/kitchen structure, Casita á Medida can be modified to meet the needs for your stay. Allow yourself the time to be able to appreciate the experience. Allow yourself permission that the enjoyment - and biggest achievement- was that the day was. Keywords: casita, vacation home

Please see important NOTE at the end of this description regarding RV's and other recreation vehicles. 'It was all so far away--there was quiet and an untouched feel to the country and I could work as I pleased.' Georgia O'Keeffe Serenity abounds at Casa Bonita, where it is easy to see why this country had such a profound impact on Georgia O'Keeffe. Light and open, this modern adobe rests on ten acres overlooking Abiquiu Lake towards Ghost Ranch, with gorgeous views in all directions. Picture windows throughout the living area allow you to appreciate the vistas from the comfort of the well-appointed interior. The covered portales (covered porches) are ideal for enjoying the tranquility of the environment. Admire the view of the Pedernal from the portale off of the master suite, or take in the iconic landscape of Ghost Ranch while you grill on the portale off of the kitchen. Spend your days hiking, visiting area galleries, or reconnecting with your own creative side. And after enjoying the unique sunset at the end of the day, savor the starlight of the unadulterated night sky. 'My first memory is of light--the brightness of light--light all around.' Georgia O'Keeffe NOTE: RV's, trailers of any sort, large trucks, and small vehicles: motorcycles, skimobiles and such are prohibited in this gated community, called High Mesas.

COVID POLICY: NEW MEXICO LAW HAS OPENED UP NM VACATION RENTALS TO EVERYONE, WHETHER THEY LIVE IN NM OR OTHER STATES, BUT THIS LAW IS ONLY EFFECTIVE FOR RENTALS BEGINNING JUNE 1 AND IT IS IN EFFECT THROUGH JUNE 30, 2020. AFTER JUNE 30, I will need to confirm that the governor of NM has extended the opening of vacation rentals to out of state residents. If you are NOT a resident of New Mexico, please feel free to book after JULY 1, and read our flexible COVID-19 Cancellation policy, offering FULL REFUNDS below. Our housekeeper is mindful of using bleach and other disinfectants, but of course no one can guarantee total purity. We are very isolated and you won't even need keys, so we believe our casita will be a welcome "away from home" respite for all those who feel the need to escape their own domiciles. IF YOU NEED TO CANCEL DUE TO THE COVID SITUATION AND NEW MEXICO'S LAWS RESTRICTING OUT OF STATE RENTERS, WE ARE VERY FLEXIBLE DURING THIS PANDEMIC. YOU WILL RECEIVE EITHER A FULL REFUND (OR A FULL CREDIT IF YOU CHOOSE IT) IF WE ARE UNABLE TO RENT TO YOU DUE TO NEW MEXICO LAW RESTRICTING US TO RENTING TO NEW MEXICO RESIDENTS ONLY, OR IF YOU CANCEL BASED ON POLICY RECOMMENDED BY HEALTH EXPERTS. NO QUESTIONS ASKED. ABIQUIU LAKE CASITA is located 75 min. north of Santa Fe, Abiquiu Lake Casita is far from highways and noise, but for the sounds of birds and wind. Our casita (small house) is set on 13.5 acres on top of one of the highest mesas overlooking Abiquiu Lake, with unlimited 360 degree views north toward the lake and Ghost Ranch and south towards the Jemez Mountains and Cerro Pedernal, the 10,000 foot flat-topped mountain that Georgia O'Keeffe loved to paint, making the mountain into an icon of northern New Mexico. Historically, Pedernal is a sacred site for Native Americans and local inhabitants. You can soak your body in a luxurious HOT TUB after a day of hiking, reading, painting, or writing. Our casita was designed in the traditional adobe style, including a Kiva wood- burning fireplace (wood provided), pine hand-hewn vigas that help support the ceiling; tile floors with radiant heating; and thick walls to hold the warmth in winter and keep you cool in summer, walls hand-plastered in the adobe style; and Mexican antique furniture. We added modern comfort throughout, including a modern and well-stocked kitchen, local art and track lighting on dimmers, and a spacious great room with a Mexican dining table that can be expanded with 3 leaves for art or writing projects. To take advantage of the long and wide views across the valleys, we built two 'portales' (covered porches). You can dine on the north side while gazing down the valley and across the lake towards the red cliffs of Ghost Ranch, or you can bask in the warmth of the sun--even in winter--on the southern portale, as you look towards the Jemez Mountains and Pedernal. Both portales are furnished with a comfortable outdoor dining set. There's also a recliner and a propane BBQ. Since there are no city lights to compete, billions of stars fill the night sky, part of the magic of New Mexico. Our favorite time for the hot tub is at night, gazing at the Milky Way and galaxies, frequently punctuated by numerous shooting stars; when it's not dark, moonlight bathes the rolling hills and desert floor. A Gentle warning: The views, the far off patterns of changing weather, and the warm coziness of the casita may make it difficult to leave the casita at all. Abiquiu Lake Casita was featured in New Mexico Magazine, November, 2011. PS: RESTRICTIONS: RV's, Trailers of any sort, large Trucks (over 3/4 ton), and small vehicles of any sort, (motorcycles, all terrain vehicles and such--are prohibited by neighborhood rules.

In the spring of 2010 Martinez Casita opened also for short term rentals. Conveniently located next to Barranca Plaza Casita, a favorite of many Ghost Ranch visitors for the last 7 years! Barranca is an old Hispanic hamlet just west of Abiquiu above the Chama River. On its small plaza there are a few adobe houses, one of which is this very charming one bedroom, one bath vacation home. The thick adobe walls have built-in banco's in the living area. Throughout the casita are tiled and wooden floors. A woodstove gives you great comfort in the winter. The thick walls keeps the house cool in the summer. A large garden with fruit trees surrounds the casita. In Barranca you will find a lively creek coming from the mountains. Follow the spring-fed creek up-stream and enter the Santa Fe National Forest with sensational views of the Abiquiu valley and the surrounding mountain lands. Badlands with goblin-like formations are nearby. The Chama River, along which are cattle ranches, is great for fishing. The casita is just minutes from Georgia O'Keeffe's home and a short drive from the Piedra Lumbre basin. Ghost Ranch is worth many visits and don't forget to drive out into the Chama River canyon to hike or visit the Benedictine Monastery. The Chama River Wilderness is paradise for explorers. The acequia, the traditional Hispanic community water system, is still held in high regard in Barranca. The mayordomo decides who irrigates when. The casita’s garden can be irrigated on Saturdays. Great day trips can be made to Ojo Caliente Mineral Hot Springs, Taos en Taos Pueblo, the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge, Santa Fe, Los Alamos, Chama (with the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad), Bandelier National Monument, Chaco Culture National Historic Park, Valle Grande, etc. etc. Family gatherings and reunions: Both Martinez Casita and Barranca Plaza Casita offer full privacy. Yet since the casitas are sitting together on one end of Barranca Plaza, they form an ideal gathering place for groups of eight family members or old school friends. BBQ facilities are provided and there are great shadowy spots to linger under the trees. Special rates are available when both casitas are rented.

We've hiked through the 'neighborhood' and have thoroughly enjoyed the climb & the trails that meander right here at home (a terrific area to walk your dogs). Peace, photos & views abound. Once booked & paid, we offer a comprehensive list of area hiking, biking & riding for your adventure outings. Plaza Blanca - famous in Abiquiu for its geology & beauty - is about 7 miles away, down off of County Road 155. If you're a hiker, you cannot miss a stay here without a least one mind-boggling trek in to these awe-inspiring white cathedral rocks. (An interesting tidbit is that the closing scene of "Cowboys & Aliens" was filmed in Plaza Blanca, along with many, many other Hollywood westerns of yesteryear & recently.) Note: Plaza Blanca was closed during Covid-19, then reopened by registration to only local residents. If interested in this, contact Pete for the email address needed to request permission and get the access code to the locked gate(s). It or may not be available for hiking at the time of your stay, as they close it during movie filming And, of course, no visit to Abiquiu - O'Keeffe country - is complete until one has explored Santa Fe, only an hour's drive southeast. The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum awaits you, in the historic Plaza, as well as an untold amount of world-class art galleries on famous Canyon Road, art & clothing boutiques, fine shopping, fine dining, an abundance of grocery stores & antique shops... the list is endless. The Rail Runner train can take you on down to Albuquerque, even, to explore Olde Town!... So MUCH to do; so little time... If you want to explore the ancient church with the famous 'healing dirt' the 200-year-old El Santuario de Chimayo' sits outside the old village of Chimayo'. This is one of my personal favorites in the area, with a blend of Catholic history & mysticism that moves my spirit to tears. This is known as the "Lourdes of the Southwest"; thousands pilgrimage here annually for the "tierra bendita" at Easter and at Christmas. Be sure to allow time to explore el santuario & its adjacent chapels & gift shop. Afterwards, I suggest you take in a meal at the Rancho de Chimayo' Restaurante, a local favorite, full of old Mexican atmosphere, great food, & both indoor & lush outdoor dining. A trip to Taos is an hour, or so, further north, either along the "River Road" (paralleling the Rio Grande) or explore the "High Road", through tiny & creative ancient villages. One of them is Truchas (where "The Milagro Beanfield War" was filmed in the 1970s. Robert Redford directed this timeless movie. It became the village of Milagro - where miracles still do occur.) Other villages, with old Catholic churches, along the High Road are Cordova, Ojo Sarco, Las Trampas & Penasco - all creative centers - winding thru' the scenic Santa Fe Nat'l Forest into Rancho de Taos. Here you will find one of the most photographed churches in America: Santuario San Francisco de Asis. Taos, itself, offers up its own Plaza, culture & artistic history, as well as the famous Taos Pueblo, where Tewa Indians still make drums. The Taos Pueblo is one of the oldest continually-habitated civilizations in the United States. Just outside of Taos is found one of the highest bridges in the world: the Rio Grande Gorge River Bridge, where one can drive (or walk) over & hear the reverberate echoes off great ancient walls plunging down 800 ft. to the Rio Grande River - which looks tiny from this perspective. NOT for those afraid of heights or the faint of heart! ***The Abiquiu area is a magnet to history, creativity, culture & natural beauty. To artists, photographers, poets & writers, scientists & outdoor adventurers. Please enjoy your outings, then return to our portal or patio & relax into a quiet night of brilliant stars in a vast open sky. Casa Paloma awaits.
