Full luxury in breathtaking natural beauty. Remote and private. So quiet you can hear your heart beat. At night, no city lights disturb your view of the star-studded sky.

From this 1,475 square foot Casita, you'll enjoy panoramic 360-degree views: Abiquiu Lake, miles of mesas, rolling hills, and the magnificent red cliffs surrounding the famous Ghost Ranch. To the south you'll see the 10,000-foot mountain known as El Pedernal, which Georgia O'Keefe made famous in her paintings,along with much of the near landscape.

Our Casita was built in 2008, and designed by a local architect in a southwestern yet modern style. It's fully furnished for comfort. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, including a Bosch gas stove with heavy gauge grills for those who really love to cook.

Check out the Master bathroom: you can choose between a slate shower or a deep soaking tub to soothe your body after an invigorating hike in the nearby Jemez Mountains. Besides the 2 bedrooms, each with Queen beds, there is a Full Size Air Mattress RAISED Inflatable Bed with Built-in High Capacity Airbed Pump and Fitted Sheets with Bed Skirt for use in the Great Room overlooking the lake.

    This house was incredible! We were overwhelmed with its location and the quietness of the neighborhood. Can't really describe it as it was much more incredible than we expected. It was just beautiful! Larry was great and there were no issues. If you are thinking about staying at this property, just do it as you will not be disappointed.

    Absolutely lived up to the description and more. This home is so thoughtfully stocked with everything my small family could need for a long weekend getaway. The views left us awe struck and in a state of vacation bliss. The rock maze was such a cool touch. Would absolutely stay here again and again.

    You couldn't ask for a better view. It was amazing. The host was very easy to work with and very kind. We loved everything other than we would highly recommend adding a king size bed. Other than that, not sure you could ask for too much more.

    It's hard to find words to describe Vista de Lago. The most obvious are the amazing views from the casita. Stunning panoramic scenes that change with the light through out the day. The stars at night are glorious! The quietness will latke you breath away. The casita itself is so well furnished and appointed like no other holiday rental we've stayed. You can tell this home is lived in and loved. You feel at home as soon as you walk in the door. We wanted for nothing and everything was clean and in very good condition, perfect. We have some serious cooks and we had a blast in that kitchen. Can't say enough about this property. Larry was the perfect host. Communication was seamless and instructions were spot on. We will definitely be back!!

    The house and view are everything you see in the pictures. There are only maybe a half dozen or more other homes within even viewing distance of this home, and none closer than maybe a 1/4 mile. Very quiet, and very dark at night.Be aware that the last 3 miles or so to reach the home, after you turn off of Hwy 96 are quite rough. The roads were not really rough and uneven like many of the off-roads in New Mexico, but if you drive in an out a number of times, it will get kind of old pretty quickly.You are about 17 miles from the nearest (and only) little town, Abiquiu. There is a general store there, an Inn and also even a little ice cream shop. Expect to pay a premium for being out in the boonies, but like I said, that is to be expected. You may want to stock up substantially before you arrive.The home wi-fi is fine. Not lightning speed but it was consistent while we were there. Be aware that away from the home, the internet is anywhere from very spotty to non-existent. My guess is that we lost it after we got past Espanola. Google Maps does NOT work. So bring along at least a good, New Mexico highway map.If you're into any sort of local TV stations, which include national news at the actual time it is broadcast, then I suggest you plan on getting it from your PC. We used Dish Anywhere.In summary, it's a beautiful home and location. If getting almost completely away is your thing, then this place is definitely for you.

    We had a great extended weekend stay and were very impressed by the house and the architecture that takes great advantage of the view of Lake Abiquiu. The fire pit area is a fantastic place to take in the scenery and the night sky. Very comfortable and lovely place to spend a vacation!

    We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The views are amazing! We had a great get away from the rest of the world. The lake is just down the hill and views are beautiful! There are many great places to visit within 60-90 minutes from the home. We really treasured our time here together! The hosts were great about communicating with us and the house was very clean and absolutely beautiful! You are remote which we knew after reading about the property which was amazing! The home is well stocked and had all that we needed. We look forward to coming back someday!

    This is the perfect place for a weekend get away! We didn't want to leave. The views are simply stunning. Getting up early to watch the sunrises were amazing and well worth it. Being able to have our fur baby with us was essential in where we were going to stay. This is a perfect property for fur babies to roam around. He absolutely love it too. This was such a special weekend and some sweet memories were made. If you are looking for a peaceful, welcoming place to stay in Abiquiu...you have found the right spot. Book now. We will definitely be back!!
