There are limited services in the country - no grocery stores, no fast food, no gas stations and only one restaurant. During the pandemic, please wear a mask when exploring the property. During the Pandemic, I am only available to answer your questions about the property and the area in general, via text, phone call or email. We are in the country and we have a strict cut-off of 10:00PM for all guests checking-in. Please print out all instructions as no one will be around to assist you late at night. We do not offer cooking facilities for our guests and being in the country 40 minutes from Santa Fe, there are limited services (no fast food, no gas stations, etc.). We require that our guests wear masks, social distance and hand sanitize. We have been lucky so far that no one has been on the property - guests or staff - who was Covid 19 positive and we want to keep it that way so guests feel comfortable staying at our facility. If you find this inhibits your stay, please cancel within 48 hours with Airbnb as to not incur any cancellation penalties.
