In forty years, our favorite stay

We've been traveling to Santa Fe for decades and have stayed in more places than we can count, but this property is the best of them all. The location is peaceful and magnificent, the house is thoughtfully appointed and so comfortable, access is easy, and the host is delightful. We will be back!

Top Notch

This was our second visit and it did not disappoint. Very clean, convenient to all activities, and quiet (except for the coyotes!). Welcoming hosts, hiking right out the back door, and a lovely front porch for morning coffee and evening sunsets make this an ideal spot.

Wonderful getaway location

We enjoyed everything about our stay and hope to return before long. The house was charming, comfortable, very clean, and stocked with everything we needed. I'd looked forward to peace and beautiful views from the patio spaces and was not disappointed! The location is convenient to Santa Fe shopping and museums, hiking, as well as attractions just beyond the city. Our hosts were thoughtful and welcoming... Five star recommendation!

Exceeded expectations

We were in SF for the opera, and the cottage is super convenient to it. Locationally, it's also a breeze to head over the Dale Ball trail system for morning hikes, then drop into town to galleries. The cottage itself is beautifully set up for a couple or two. It's recently built with a great layout and plenty of indoor/outdoor space. The dirt road entrance immediately puts you in the mood for a special experience.

Perfection

This beautiful home was perfect for our stay in the Santa Fe area. Tesuque Village is lovely and this little house provided the peace and quiet we'd hoped for. The house itself is well appointed, with very comfortable beds and any item you may need for a stay. The host was very responsive and helpful! While there, I was able to enjoy a hike around the property. Beautifully maintained and truly relaxing. Thank you to the Porter Place (April and Pat). We will most definitely be back soon!

A true haven

Everything I needed and things I didn’t even know I needed. The remoteness of Porters Place provides a quiet and reflective spot among nature … with all the wonderful modern conveniences! Beds were comfy, the radiant heated floors were amazing, and the level of hospitality was something I haven’t experienced much of in my travels. As a solo traveler, I felt very safe. It was a true pleasure to make Porter Place my resting spot while exploring Santa Fe. I recommend to all adult travelers and will choose Porter Place if I find myself in the area again.

Hidden Gem & More

The owners have attended every teeny detail in this piece of paradise. From the moment we exited the car, we were enthralled. Colorful, fragrant flowers and the beautiful surrounding environment greeted us before we entered the charming house. Although the house is perfect, comfortable, inviting, the patios beckoned. Nature surrounds this little gem. We loved watching the hummingbirds feeding on the variety of flowers, spotting an occasional jackrabbit, and visiting with their friendly horses who checked on us each day. I wish I were there now!

Perfect getaway

Absolutely delightful property with everything you need. The drive in is a bit rugged, pick a rental car that can handle dirt roads, can be difficult to find for the first time if it's dark out - well worth the oasis that awaits at the end! Dishwasher, washer/dryer, microwave, oven/stove, electric kettle, coffee maker, coffee grinder, big fridge/freezer, TV, wifi all in perfect working order. Enough kitchen equipment to cook some good meals (but local cuisine is easily accessible and delicious). Heated floors made my toes happy. The beds are large and comfy, pillows were just right. Outdoor furniture perfect for some prime star gazing. Feels like you're tucked away in the wild but you're still within 15min of Santa Fe. Can't say enough good things about this place, hope to come back someday!

Hidden Gem is right

The title of this property is 100% accurate – Porter Place is one of the best “hidden gems” we found on our trip to Santa Fe. Do NOT be wondering or worried about what seems to be a remote location. This lovely home has everything to recommend it. Beautifully decorated with original art. Well stocked kitchen and pantry. Two roomy bedrooms with comfortable beds and storage for all. Peace and quiet and yet, a quick ride puts you in the heart of the city within 12-minute drive. Best of all, the help and responsiveness of the host. April was in constant contact with us and always at the ready to answer a question, “run over” with a needed supply and/or provide a recommendation. This was so appreciated especially since a series of minor bumps (delivery of needed medical supplies and an unexpected power outage) saved the day and the trip for all. Cannot recommend this lovely home highly enough. Given everything Santa Fe has to offer (and there is a LOT to experience) we will be back!

The pictures truly don't do this property justice! This little piece of heaven is so comfortable, cozy, and peaceful. My friend and I really enjoyed each having our own bed and bathroom for privacy at the end of the day. It's close enough to everything to not be a pain to get to places but also far enough out to be so quiet and tranquil. One morning, we were greeted by the horses--what a special treat! We will definitely stay here again!

Beautiful house and property.

This was the perfect place for us, two couples who are old friends meeting from different parts of the country. Very accessible to downtown Santa Fe, but so rural and quiet. The house itself was incredibly tasteful, clean, and well laid out. All the amenities we needed. And the sunset view was incredible.

Restful Retreat

This little house was perfect for our stay. Out of the way and quiet, yet accessible to just about anything one could want. Super clean with a well equipped kitchen in case you want to stay in and cook instead of going out. Tesuque Market is a deliciously funky market/restaurant a 15 minute walk away and is a must. April and Patrick are very gracious hosts - we will definitely return!

Quiet Seclusion and Convenience

The house has everything you need for a wonderful stay. The location is tranquil and offers great stargazing, yet it is only a few minutes from the conveniences of Santa Fe. Easy access to the highway for day trips to Taos, Abiquiu, and Albuquerque was also nice. April was very helpful and offered excellent information about the area. Make sure you stop by the Honey Salon and Shake Foundation.
