Winter Mountain Getaway!

Cozy Tijeras mountain home - your perfect winter basecamp! 30 minutes to Sandia Peak ski area, and a little more than an hour to Santa Fe! Minutes to the Cibolla National Forest trails, 45 minutes to Madrid's artsy charm, and the best green chili cheeseburger! (Mineshaft Tavern). 2 queen bedrooms, third room as reading/relaxation room. A warm living room with huge picture windows and breathtaking views throughout. Perfect winter base for skiers, snowboarders & Albuquerque explorers.


This is a true mountain home! You will reach the house via fully paved but winding road.
Winter driving tip:
When snow or ice is in the forecast, all -wheel (AWD) or 4WD is strongly recommended. The main road is plowed but the driveway is not.
Mountain storms/ or winter storms can occasionally knock out the grid power. No need to worry- our backup generator kicks in automatically within 10-15 seconds, restoring essential power to: Heat (furnace) refrigerator, selected lights and outlets (marked with red stickers), well pump (water stays on).
Wildlife is active (deer, elk, bears) ; secure trash and don't leave food outside.

Please note that while we take great care in cleaning the home before and each stay, this property is not guaranteed to be allergen-free.
There were pets in the past and despite multiple professional deep cleanings, it's possible that trace amounts of pet hair, dander or other allergens may still be present.
Additionally we use scented cleaning products, laundry detergent and wall plug air fresheners to keep the home smelling fresh. These scents can be noticeable (some guests love them others find them strong). Unfortunately we cannot remove or change for individual bookings.
If you or anyone in your party has severe allergies (to pets, dust, fragrance, perfume or laundry products) this home may not be suitable for you. We want you to have a safe and comfortable stay, so please take this into consideration before bookings.
Thank you for your understanding.

Caution: if exploring outside the deck area, the backyard has a steep slope and cacti are present so please watch your step carefully.
