This sweet casita is nestled on the Big Tesuque Creek among mature cottonwood trees. Escape to this tranquil home after a day in Santa Fe, just 6 miles away or hike right from the door, up the Windsor Trail and into the Santa Fe National Forest. It is called Casita Margarita after my Aunt Margaret who influenced my love of textiles like the ones that decorate the casita! (You can also enjoy a fresh squeezed margarita here too!)

You will find everything you need in this cozy and private home. Tastefully and simply decorated with folk art from around the world, the casita will become your peaceful retreat. The studio style bedroom is furnished with a queen size bed with a new mattress and organic linens. The open living/dining/kitchen has a comfortable queen size pullout sofa set in front of the kiva fireplace. We provide high quality natural bed linens and use natural cleaning products to ensure your stay is healthy and fresh. The charming full bath is located just off the master bedroom. The kitchen is stocked for your use including essential spices and oils and coffee, teas and bubbly water. There is a private sitting area with a table and chairs in the enclosed courtyard for you to enjoy.

Air conditioning will keep you cool for those hot summer nights.

** Please note that this is a studio style home - a wide archway with a linen curtain separates the living spaces from the sleeping/bath. Pullout sofa is in the living area.

Tesuque is a unique village located just north of Santa Fe on Bishops Lodge Road. With traditional culture along the acequia and creek, two restaurants and several galleries nearby, you will have ample sights to explore. The Santa Fe Opera is located just west of Tesuque - a 5 minute drive from the casita. Between the Santa Fe plaza and the casita is the road to the world famous Ten Thousand Waves Japanese spa, to the stunning Santa Fe National Forest and to the Santa Fe Ski Basin. You can also access the National Forest by hiking straight from the casita and up along the Tesuque Creek....you can go a few miles or into the Pecos Wilderness for days.

We would be delighted to have you come and enjoy yourselves in our home when we are traveling!

    We loved our stay at the casita! Great, quiet location in Tesuque Village (close to Santa Fe) with fantastic hiking just down the road! The casita was impeccably clean and we loved that the owner uses eco-friendly cleaning products. Melissa was a fantastic host and we appreciated her attention to detail and all of the local goodies she provided!

    Such a cute adorable casita..with everything you need. Comfortable for us as well as our dogs. A small enclosed area to sit outside with your critters. Hiking/walking is close by. Easy drive into town or Tesuque Market..We have worked with Melissa before and she is exceptional in making sure you feel welcomed with flowers, bubbly water and more. We came in later than we thought we would. She had the lights on and the heat turned up. Wonderful welcome and touch.

    We really enjoyed our stay and it fit our needs perfectly. Due to mobility and dietary issues we mostly cook en casa, so it was great to have a well stocked kitchen. The neighborhood is quiet and out of the way but downtown SF (and the SF Opera!) is only a short drive away. A great way to enjoy the beautiful Santa Fe summertime. Thanks Melissa and Cindy!

    Everything was perfect, will stay again every time we visit Santa Fe. Quiet setting just far enough away from the bustle and traffic of Santa Fe. I cannot think of any aspect that would need changing.

    Property presents just as listed. Quiet village outside of Sante Fe, but quick and easy access to anything you’d want to do in and around Sante Fe. Good communication throughout….from booking to stay and beyond. I left a jacket that was promptly shipped to me. Would definitely stay again?

    This will be the second time staying in this lovely casita. Perfect location for hiking and access to the ski mountain. Quiet area near town. Our dogs love it too! Super easy check in too. I’m sure I’ll have even more to rave about next time we stay here!

    we had a wonderful stay here! The casita was quiet, clean and very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again. It was in the perfect location to skip into town or jump on the winsor for a hike. Just down the road from our favorite outpost market/eatery, Tesuque Market. Loved it!

    Very cool casita. Perfect spot for a couple. Highly recommended as a site that is away from downtown Santa Fe, yet close to all the action.

    My husband and I stayed here for 9 nights and I must say it was an absolute joy! Gorgeously decorated casita with a beautiful, private outdoor space. Communication with Melissa was a breeze. We really enjoyed the access to hiking almost right outside the door. And we REALLY appreciate that dogs AND cats are welcome. We would stay here again without hesitation. It’s a super peaceful neighborhood ☺️

    Casa Margarita was perfect for a couple! We spent time relaxing outdoors and indoors. The house was clean and supplied with everything we needed. It was a short drive to the plaza area so it made for a great location.
