We enjoyed the homely feeling Kellys Casita gave us to relax from such a long drive and very appreciative of all the amenities the rental came with. Definitely will be booking Kelly's Casita on our next stay. Thank you for the quick communication when we had any questions and allowing us to stay at your beautiful home. Beautiful sight to wake up to seeing the Sandia Mtns in the morning.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Kelly’s Casita! The space was perfect and had everything we could possibly want—comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully stocked. The location was just right for a relaxing getaway, and the casita itself felt like home from the moment we arrived.Tom and Kelly were such friendly and welcoming hosts, making sure every detail was taken care of. Their warmth really made our experience special. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better stay and are already looking forward to coming back to this same place.Thank you, Tom and Kelly, for such a memorable visit!

We really enjoyed staying at Tom's place. It was just the right size for the two of us. Plenty of parking and easy access. Additionally i was able to easily set up my tripod to get some beautiful sunrise pictures. Tom's place is also within a mile or so of dark night skies for milky way pictures.

After following his excellent directions, Tom met us as soon as we drove up the driveway entrance. He gave us a tour of the Casita, which included setting up wifi, using voice command, and showing us where to find things. We seriously did not need to bring anything with us except our clothes and medical devices. The Casita was just as advertised on Vrbo. What a lovely, wonderful place to spend the week. A couple of times, I called or texted, and Tom answered very quickly. The only thing we missed was Tom's other half, Kelly, who was on her own grandchildren vacation. Hopefully, we will meet her when we have an opportunity to stay again! Thank you, Tom!

Accurately explain your expected stay or you'll have some disappointments a d extra costs.

We thought we booked for 4 nights but we were misunderstood. We bought food for 4 dinners & 4 breakfasts. It was thrown away because we had to leave. We spent an extra 200 on a hotel and more on dinner. We attended a 4 day convention. Otherwise it was very nice...just extra stress I didn't need.

Had the best time in Rio Rancho

We enjoyed our week stay in Rio Rancho. Tom and Kelly were very gracious hosts. Everything was as described and stocked as needed. The neighborhood is quiet. The highlight of our trip was a balloon ride, Santa Fe, Bandelier National Monument and Ghost Ranch. We had beautiful weather. It was a perfect get away. Thank you!

My husband and I visit the Albuquerque area yearly in April to visit his relatives in Rio Rancho. What a find this was! After 10 years of hotel rooms, we found our home away from home. The mountain greets you majestically and the hosts are attentive and welcoming. Everything you need all nestled in a quiet neighborhood. It truly is a lovely casita!
