Wonderful House!

Our family of five enjoyed our stay at Gurley's because of the cleanliness, amenities (boat parking and pet friendly too), and location. The host Kelly was amazing, making sure we had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. We hope to stay here again!

Quick trip down to the lake

Kelly was super responsive to my queries. The house was tidy and welcoming. The Gurleys provided all of the amenities we needed, including coffee and a gift of home-made salsa with chips! We had a great time and would definitely stay at "Gurley's Happy Place" again!

Butte Gem

This property was the perfect distance from Elephant Butte. My family took our boat to enjoy the water the three days we were there. The home had everything we needed and plenty of space for my party of six. I especially appreciated the AC units (mini splits) in each room so each of us could set to our liking. Kelly was an excellent host and we look forward to staying here again!

Great location. Super accommodating

We had to cancel this trip and were super bummed out. But she still had it open and held it for us. Went for the balloon regatta and was a great experience all around.

Butte trip

Over all a lovely stay. The exterior of the house may be a little off-putting at first, but inside is wonderful. We had a little trouble with the cooler units, but the owner said she would look into it.

Perfect Lake Experience

Kelly's home is charming. It is open, clean and inviting. For families visiting the lake with toys, it was perfect. The home provides ample room for cooking and hanging out. The three bedrooms and two bathrooms were well appointed. The washer and dryer was a plus. There are split unit ac's in each bedroom and living room providing each guest with the ability to adjust their room to the perfect temp for them. There are two patios. One which has a fire pit, perfect for roasting smores. The other a nice place to sit and eat. There is ample parking for jet skis or a boat and the neighborhood is quiet and safe. We had a blast fishing and jet skiing. We hope one day to stay there again! Thanks for a great summer getaway!

Gurley's Happy Place

Our stay was very pleasant. Kelly was very quick to contact me with any questions that I had. The property was very close to the main lake entrance. There was some delicious chips and salsa waiting for us. There was also bird food to feed the quail and other birds in their relaxing back yard. I definitely recommend Gurley's Happy Place.
