| We had such a wonderful vacation while staying in this great house. Thanks Marianne for your easy to follow directions. The house is very comfortable and so child friendly that another time we may bring our grandchild. I think most children would enjoy star gazing, bird watching, and talking to the resident bunny who scampers across the front yard...lots of space to run and for outdoor games too. No children along this time though - we four adults explored Tijeras, Albuquerque, and up to Santa Fe during the days and played dominos at the spacious dining table in the evening. We were so busy we didn't leave enough time for nature walks - shame on us. Good food, lattes, and Italian sodas nearby in Tijeras, and the Sandia Tram Ride in Albuquerque is a must do. We all agreed that this wonderful property was so much better than staying in a hotel. Also, we appreciated the recycling bins. Thanks for everything Marianne. |

| We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful home. We had a mini-reunion of sorts with some friends and this was the perfect setting. The patio was great for enjoying the afternoon and evening weather. We loved to see the birds and wildlife just outside the door. The kitchen was perfect for preparing meals in and the lovely, large dining table was quite accommodating. We walked from the house to great hiking trails. We really couldn't have asked for a better experience! We all would like to return again, but perhaps for a longer stay. |

We recently held a family reunion at this property--a celebration of my parents' 60th wedding anniversary. It was the perfect place for our event. The accomodations were wonderful and the management very accomodating. We'd love to come back.

The house and the location were lovely! The sound of
the breeze blowing through the forest made us think
that we were by the ocean. The highlight was making
a fire on the patio at night at gazing at the stars. We
were very appreciative to find such a pleasant place in
which to stay. |

We had a great time at this lovely home. The setting was so quiet and serene, exactly what my city kids needed for a nice vacation/family reunion. We loved that the house was so open and we could enjoy each other even when we were in the kitchen preparing meals. The large TV was great for the kids (the little one and the big ones) as they played our Wii. We got some great family pictures on the beautiful patio. The forest around the house added just the right background.
Marianne was great. Thanks so much for the perfect driving directions. You have no idea how much they were appreciated as we got in after dark and were exhausted from a grueling drive. Thanks too for all the extra information and advice; it all came in handy.
The last day, my California grandkids got to see snow fall for the first time and they loved that! They even built a very small snowman on the Chimera:-)
Thanks for everything. It was a wonderful trip for everyone.

Wonderful! We enjoyed every single minute of
staying in this tranquil, private, peaceful home!
Our family get together couldn't have been better.
Loved the house, loved the location, pine trees all
around, secluded, totally restful. Enjoyed the
gourmet kitchen and HUGE! HDTV! Marianne who
is managing the property is a delight and went way
above to ensure our stay was perfect. She's the
best! cl, Colorado |

| The house provided a perfect setting for our family to meet over our daughters' college spring break. While it was convenient to many hikes and tourist activities, we mainly enjoyed using the house and all its amenities to relax and catch up with each others lives. Marianne was a wonderful and accommodating host. Many thanks! |

We enjoyed our family reunion over New Years
week. Our traveling kin arrived from Pittsburgh, PA
and Columbia, MO. As local Albuquerquenos, we
knew the Cedro Peak area is a beautiful place; we
like to hike and mountain bike on the nearby trails
whenever we can. All of our family equally enjoyed
the house nestled in the pinon pines and the
brightness of the stars at night. The house had all
the modern comforts and was large enough for our
clan to share the space and good company.
Marianne, the property manager, thoughtfully
helped with all the little things and was kind
enough to shuttle the gals to Albuquerque while the
boys were at the El Paso Sun Bowl with the ALL of
the car keys. Looking forward to the next visit. Joe

| My family (and extended family) stayed at this fabulous house and casita over Christmas, 2008 and had a wonderful experience! The house and casita are beautiful - modern, yet comfortable and well-equipped. We loved the wood-burning stoves, comfy beds, and all the sights and smells of the beautiful pinion forest. The owners thought of everything, even providing firewood and sleds for our winter adventures! An unforgetable, marvelous vacation! We can't wait to come back! |

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at this beautiful place and everyone absolutely loved it.
The tucked away home nestled in the trees was so peaceful. The house is so nice, the pictures just do not show how absolutely beautiful it is. We had plenty of room for our family to stay with us and the guest house was comfortable and very roomy. We had an amazing time on the front patio with the nice chiminea. We danced and enjoyed the nice star lite night. We were able to make a great big breakfast in the wonderfully modern kitchen and sat around the large table and enjoyed each others company. All in all it was an amazing time and we look forward to enjoying a nice, comfortable winter weekend there soon. Thanks for all your help Marianne you were so pleasant to deal with, you made everything happen with ease and we definitely appreciated this on such an important day for us. You have such a great place there. |

My family stayed here with my cousin from Texas back in early October. What a wonderful house! It was big enough to accommodate both families (with little children). It is a gorgeous home set back from the road and surrounded by woods. The appliances are all modern and the open floor plan is very spacious. I love this place and we had a great time. I am looking forward to staying here again next year! I highly recommend this home. And it was a pleasure working the owner/agent!

| 10/2008 - We rented the house for a sister's get-together and appreciated all the room and conveniences. The property gave us a sense of privacy and so convenient to Albuquerque and other points of interest. This is definitely a good choice for a vacation rental. |

| We had a wonderful time. The seclusion was wonderful along with the wild life. We went from short sleeves to snow. We were able to relax in comfort and class. I would recommend this property to anyone I know that is planning a trip to the area. Both of us would return in a heart beat! The family in charge of this property are very special people and made our trip complete. |

| We were privileged to be the first guests to stay in this wonderful home. It was absolutely perfect for our family reunion! We gathered here from 5 states and all were impressed with the great home and amenities, the scenery, and the weather. This home is all that is advertised and more. We would rent it again in a heart beat! |

The house was beautiful and an ideal location if you want to get away from it all and take in the beauty of the country.
The house has a great outdoor patio, modern kitchen and nice blend of modern and rustic.
We'll go again! |
