Fantastic Getaway
If your goal is to relax and disconnect, this is a great place to stay.
Beautiful views, short hikes available on the property, longer ones nearby.
The kitchen is fully kitted out and the home itself is beautifully remodeled.

Myrick is just that! NM at its best. Close to Ojo and yet secret lovely from large room w views everything you would want for a stay incredible bath and crazy toilet! to lounge areas! And little Gilden 12 week old loved it too!
Even prancing on the hiking trail!
Thanks so
We will book again
The first impression was better than expected, which was exciting based on Gregory's communications! When we opened the door we both smiled with glee and each new ahaa was fabulous. Three days was not quite enough to take it all in. We'll be back, oh, and Ojo Caliente and Artesian resaurant were beyond fabulous as well!!

A Perfect Retreat
My family fell in love with the property and the area. If you’re looking for solitude and tranquillity, look no farther. Yes, it really is as pretty as the pictures make it look. I’ve stayed at dozens of short-term rentals over the years and this is the only one I’d stay at again without hesitation. The property is pretty isolated (which is a good thing) so be sure to plan ahead with groceries, but once you’re there it has everything you need. A very special place.

Beautiful Getaway
The exterior is rustic adobe, the interior is modern, tasteful and has all necessary amenities. If you want gorgeous views in a remote setting, this place is for you. Also, the property manager is conscientious and responds quickly to messages.

Incredible views. So quiet.
Open, quiet, relaxing. The hammocks inside and outside were so so relaxing. I loved the open simplicity of this home. A great place to unplug and also so nice that I got to share it with my dogs, thanks for being a dog friendly property. And it’s just 7 miles from the Ojo Caliente resort!
