About this property

This little historic home was built just before the turn of the century and was one of the early homes in Willow Springs! Now known as Raton.
The Carriage house is a quaint little brick cottage built in the late 1800’s. It has been extensively renovated with updated appliances, furniture, and finishes. There is one king-sized bed that is memory foam. Our guests love it!

It is still an old home! It squeaks, makes noises, and doesn’t have perfectly plumb and level walls or floors. It is also pretty amazing that it is still liveable 140 years after it was built!

Guest access
You will have access to the whole home and the beautiful, bluegrass yard shaded by huge mature trees and a private patio with table and chairs for 4.

Adorable Carriage House!

We LOVED the house, the host, everything was as expected, and we really appreciated how comfortable everything was. While it was cold, the house is old and it was expected. I will definitely stay again when I come back to Raton to visit my family. Five stars!

About the host

Hosted by Nathan Green

We have been Air BnB hosts for years with 900+ reviews and are just now jumping into VRBO.
We live on a cattle ranch east of Raton with our 3 adventurous boys. We ride motorcycles, bikes, and horses. We chase sunset pictures and explore abandoned old places. We travel, climb mountains, and jump in the water every chance we get.
I am an artist working in multiple mediums. Some of my favorites are steel, stone, and light. I have an art gallery in the town of Des Moines, which is a 1920's service station that we saved from certain ruin. It is now modern, light, and filled with art!
We have been in the hospitality business since 2005 when we started offering all-inclusive, guided outdoor adventures on the ranch. We have met tons of interesting people, many of whom have become lifelong friends.

Why they chose this property

This is a historic neighborhood, it sits in a mixed-use area both commercial and residential. Although It is right on the main street through the town of Raton. The Carriage house sits at the back of the property which makes it feel pretty secluded. Raton was once a hub of excitement with horse racing, neon signs, and vintage motels. That heyday has passed but we are doing our best to usher in a new era of artists and revival!

What makes this property unique

This little house was likely living quarters for the hired help to those who owned and lived in the big red brick Queen Anne Victorian (our Second Story Listing) right next door. It is my favorite of the 3 homes on the property. It's small, historic, quirky, and beautifully updated.
