The Country House is our largest guest space with 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. A large portal stretches across the front of the house and provides seating and dining areas to read or enjoy an outdoor meal with views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. When you walk in the front door, you`ll find a large open space which features an indoor dining area, a living room, and a kitchen that opens up into the living space. The sofa in the living room can be converted to a full sized bed (sleeps two). Through the back door of the kitchen, is another portal with table and chairs for enjoying a meal or a cup of coffee outdoors. Off of the kitchen is a small study, complete with desk and sofa, and one of two full bathrooms. Through another set of doors is a bedroom which contains a trundle bed (two twin sized beds) which can be left as a couch if additional sleeping arrangements are not required. It should be noted that this 2nd bedroom is the only interior access to the primary bedroom, meaning it must be `passed through` though it has doors that can close it off as well. The bottom trundle beds is best suited for a child and the top bed though small is comfortable for most adults. From here, you`ll travel down the hallway to the laundry room (full sized washer, dryer and utility sink) and finally the primary bedroom and bath. A large four-post bed stands dominantly in the center of the room with plenty of space to sit as well. The ensuite bathroom features a beautiful double head shower with Spanish tile throughout. There is a door which leads to the front portal directly off the bedroom. The fireplace is not currently available for use.

There is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy located around the property. Just a quick walk up a path and you`ll arrive at the large lawn which surrounds a small private chapel. Settle in under the large apricot tree or relax on the hammock nearby. Across the driveway are our resident alpacas who will look on with curiosity as you are traveling around the property. The property is also home to our on-site property managers, Jeff and Lauren and their two young children.

Please don`t hesitate to contact us with any questions.

Guests will have full access to The Country House as well as use of several other outdoors spaces.

My family and I live in a house on the property and will be available during your stay. We try to give our guests plenty of space but typically like to stop by and introduce ourselves at check-in.

The Country House is located on a large property and while you can conveniently access Santa Fe, it is feels like you are nestled away. The small village of Tesuque has two restaurants (one more casual, and another more formal) and a great foundry and sculpture garden. Most of the entertainment will be found in Santa Fe.

Guests will need a vehicle to get around comfortably although guests have had success using Uber for the occasional trip.

The winters here can be rather snowy and we recommend that guests have a 4WD or at least an AWD vehicle during the winter months. While we provide snow removal, the roads can be pretty slick.
