Beautiful, artsy, rustic

The carriage house was clean and had everything mentioned in the description. There are quirky and artsy touches everywhere and beautiful stone benches throughout the property. The guests next door were rowdy, but not the hosts fault.

Different in the winter

Property was as described and important to note that it is a different experience in the winter. Heat is generated by wood fire stove, so can be cold upon arrival, especially if arriving at night (wood provided). Limited breakfast items (oats, oranges)

A Romantic Getaway in Cerillos

This property is truly a gem! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by every artistically crafted detail—there’s a sense of wonder and care in every corner, and it feels like each piece has its own story. This historic 1800s carriage house is surrounded by stunning nature, making it the perfect escape to recharge and reconnect. Staying here was especially memorable for us, as we got engaged in the beautiful mountains nearby. The setting added a magical backdrop to our experience, and we felt incredibly fortunate to call this place home for a few days. The owners are artists (a writer & studio) & have infused the property with a warm, whimsical charm that makes it feel truly special. As a bonus, a sweet little dog greeted us every morning, lounging outside our door and enjoying some morning scratches while I had my coffee—the perfect addition. The surrounding town of Cerillos is absolutely adorable, with a quaint main street, and Madrid, just a short drive away, offered a quirky, artsy vibe with shops and galleries that were perfect for a day trip. We are beyond grateful for our time here and will treasure the memories we made. Thank you for sharing this incredible place with us!

Peaceful, beautiful stay

Chose this spot for a peaceful getaway and it very much delivered. Gorgeous space on a beautiful property. Hosts were communicative but gave me my space. Heads up, as they mention in the listing there is no cell service. And if the power goes out (as it did at the start of my stay due to storms), the wifi obviously goes down and you really can't talk to anyone outside. In my case, the power outage was just an hour or so, so not a concern. Would definitely stay again!

A Serene Quick Trip!

My partner Elijah and I loved every moment of our stay! From the property’s amazing views to the cute hens in the coop, we adored the whole place. We’ll definitely be back, but in the meantime we hope that others will also choose to visit! Thanks again to our Hosts, y’all were absolutely amazing to chat with and have around for the weekend. (Tell Mr. Darcy I said hi!)

Total Peace

This property is beautiful and relaxing. The flowers, landscape and overall rustic nature of this property is very inviting. We enjoyed the bright moon and wide open skies while relaxing in the orchard under the stars. A truly magical place to unwind.

Beautiful Spot, Very Accommodating Hosts!

My friend and I stayed in the Rock Carriage House. The hosts were very prompt with communication, and the grounds are gorgeous. We stayed one night for a concert nearby, so we weren't there very long, but the grounds are so beautiful with shaded sitting nooks throughout the property. The effort the owners have put into all of the natural vegetation, walking paths, decor on the houses and barn... it definitely made for a beautiful and unique stay. The ONLY critique that I have is for the mattress and pillows, but I find that to be a somewhat common issue with vacation rentals. If they had a better mattress, I would rate 10/10. I still rate this a 9/10 experience. It was truly lovely.

Enchanted Spot

What a great space that was created in this property! Me and my darling could feel the love paid to the details and loved the art and artistry that was part of so much of that space. Also loved the outdoor spaces as we watched a lightning storm out in the distance. What a gem!

A piece of paradise in Los Cerillos

We spent one night in the carriage house, but could have stayed a week! Jill and Thomas were exceptional hosts. It is truly special to spend a night somewhere that has been someone's passion project for years. From the handmade structures, to the gardens and art throughout the property, you can feel the intentionality with which Jill and Thomas' live their lives. Can't wait to stay for longer!

So cute and quaint

Needed to get away. Tucked into a cute property. Owners were super nice. Would definitely stay again. I understood the no flushing paper products. I couldn’t help but think how a cheap bidet might make the place even more eco friendly.
