Photos and Description of the Albuquerque vacation house rental
3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms

The Old Town house in the museum district is an authentic adobe, built c. 1902. A recent systems update adds modern comfort to the rustic Southwestern charm of this old territorial style house. Across the street from Tiguex Park, and about a block and a half from historic Old Town Plaza, the location is unmatched. Three bedrooms and two baths accommodate 6 (2 queen beds and 1 full bed). The en suite master bath features a claw foot tub, the second bedroom has a gas kiva fireplace, and soft lighting is achieved in all three bedrooms with chandeliers.

An open floor plan connects the living room and kitchen. All kitchen appliances are stainless. An adjoining sitting room (with its own kiva fireplace) allows views of the park through a side lit French door. The dining room seats 6 comfortably.

With original wood floors, beamed ceilings, and foot thick walls, this house evokes the romance of the Old West, and is a fantastic base for your Albuquerque adventures.

Trip Advisor - Things to Do in Albuquerque: Duke City FIx: For a daily dose of Albuquerque pictures (as well as local commentary), see the Duke City Fix web site. Photos are posted on the Albuquerque Photo Gallery near the top of the DCF home page. People post new ones daily, and there are often spectacular shots of the Albuquerque scenery.

A Couple of Restaurants: Here are a couple of local restaurants of note (there are many other fabulous ones in Old Town, and throughout Albuquerque, but these are a couple of my favorites):

The St. Claire Winery and Bistro - great food, often live music, and local New Mexico wines. About a five minute drive (with traffic).

For those who are eating gluten free, try Paisano's. Yes, gluten free Italian, and it is wonderful.

Seasons - within walking distance - upscale, great food, good service

Car: recommended

The house fronts Old Town Rd., a quiet street bordering Tiguex Park. The park is a place of towering cottonwoods, grassy fields, and a first rate playground. This is a walking neighborhood, with people out with strollers and dogs into the evening hours. Immediately across the park are several museums (Art and History, Science and Natural History, and Explora - the children's science museum). Excellent restaurants and interesting shopping are within leisurely walking distance. The Albuquerque Biological Park, including the zoo, aquarium and botanical gardens, is a short drive away.

Logistics are easy, with a short ride from the airport, a mile and a half to the train station and Convention Center, and about 1 hour to Santa Fe.

Albuquerque was recently ranked one of the five best cities in the U.S. to live in. The culture in the area is amazing and there is always something of interest going on. Come and enjoy!

Other Activities: Museums & Theaters (I-Max)

Ski: According to Google Maps, Santa Fe Ski area is 1 hour and 2 minutes from the house. Closer to town is Sandia Peak Ski Area, about 45 minutes away. Some drive to the Sandia Peak Tramway in the Northeast Heights, and take the tram to and from the ski area.

Great Stay!!

My husband and I rented this home with our three children for Spring Break. We were visiting my oldest son who is a grad student at UNM. I picked the place because it looked beautiful online, the location was excellent, and the reviews were glowing. My family could not have been more pleased with this home. The pictures just don't do it justice online. The house is across from a very family friendly park on the edge of Old Town. It is just a very short walk to everything.

What was mose impressive, however, was the home itself. Everything is provided--bedrooms with comfortable bedding, immaculate bathrooms and kitchen, a great backyard, tasteful decor, and lots of open and sunny space. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with this property. The owner provides very clear directions on everything about the house, and refunded our full deposit the day after we arrived home.

Overall I give this house my highest recommendation!

This house was very beautiful and comfortable. We stayed over Thanksgiving, and the kiva heaters were surprisingly warm. The new bathroom fixtures are just amazing. It is a three minute walk from Old Town. I would definitely recommend this property, and we intend to come back.

Paradise near Old Town

5 of 5
Submitted: November 19, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
Our stay could not have been more enjoyable. Everything was perfect. For 4 adults, and 2 children, the proximity to everything was fantastic-Old Town, a two block walk, -the park across the street, and the Childrens Museum across the way. Furnishing were were really nice, especially the claw foot tub to soak in. Really nothing missing. Backyard was spacious and the weather was superb.We loved the rustic squeakey floors right down to the not so square arch ways. Furniture was really relaxing. Can't say enough other than we will try to stay here next year, possibly bring older friends.

Charming home for a family weekend

5 of 5
Submitted: September 12, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
This house was well-equipped, clean, and comfortable for a weekend with 2 couples and a baby. The thick adobe walls allowed for a lot of privacy.

The park across the street was gorgeous and there was easy access to restaurants and the freeway.

Carol provided excellent instructions before we arrived and while we were staying in the house.

I would stay here again the next time I'm in ABQ.
