Donna's place was immaculately clean and so peaceful. We appreciated the space for all of us to spread out and the kitchen was stocked perfectly for our needs. The back porch is a beautiful place to have breakfast or an evening of family time. All of the benefits of Rio Rancho are within a few minutes' drive. Great stay!
