SUMMARY
With courage, hardship, and determination, the ancestors of our city's tri-cultural people all traveled up the Historic Old Santa Fe Trail, making our unique city the place it is today. Now you can stay in this lovely Southwest-style home (complete with visas and brick floors) right off this famous trail with all the comforts of modern living.
LIVING AREA
The sunken living room features ample seating, and a gorgeous kiva fireplace, and plenty of natural light.
KITCHEN AND DINING
The fully equipped kitchen features gorgeous Spanish tile and Southwestern artwork. Utilize the appliances and natural counter space to prepare any home-cooked meal. The kitchen also features a breakfast bar on the other side of the counter, adjacent to the 4-person dining table that overlooks the living room.
BED AND BATH
The king size bedroom features a skylight that adds even more natural light to this already sunny home, and an en-suite bath (with additional Spanish tile) for comfort and convenience.
OUTDOOR SPACE
The enclosed flagstone patio is perfect for enjoying a home-cooked meal, a glass of wine, or a cup of coffee in Santa Fe’s famous weather. It is also adorned with local plant life.

The casita was perfectly located, walking distance to everything in central Santa Fe. The casita is bright, warm, cheery and entirely comfortable! The vigas, lovely fireplace, brick floors, and spacious bedroom were completely charming! Will definitely stay again! Liz, February 2016

Our "home" at Old Santa Fe Trail has been one of highlights of our stay in Santa Fe. It's location, in a quiet neighborhood yet close to downtown, was perfect. Inside, the place truly is light and welcoming and so well decorated in the charming Southwest style. The website photos truly reflect this. This casita is well equipped with everything one could possible need: complete kitchen with big refrigerator, toaster oven, microwave and plenty of dishes and cutlery and there is ample storage everywhere. Bathroom had a great shower and all the comforts of home and the King-size bed was very comfortable. It met all our needs and all this for a very reasonable price too! We would love to come back one day in warmer days when we can breakfast on one of the two private patios... Thank you Wendy for the warm welcome with wine, blue corn chips and a great, spicy Southwest green salsa! We really enjoyed it all. Maryke, February 2016

Much to see in Sante Fe and the Old Sanae Fe Trail Casita is a great place to stay while taking in the sights of the city. The reason we chose this place was our conversations with Wendy and Germain who at all times were very helpful and cheerful. The place was clean and close to downtown so one could walk if the weather permitted. We ended up driving most of the time and it was nice to come back and have private parking at the rental. We had asked for some wood to be provided and there it was by the fireplace when we arrived. We enjoyed the small courtyard and drinking our coffee there. The only negative thing that we discovered was there seemed to be several ants in the kitchen area, not a serious problem but one does not want to leave any food out in the kitchen area. It was advertised as old world charm and it did provide that charm for our honeymoon. Nice very nice.

Wonderful place to stay in a nice neighborhood close to everything downtown and on Canyon Road. We were sad to leave Santa Fe and would definitely stay there again!

After 20-years, two girlfriends and I planned a reunion trip in Santa Fe, New Mexico. We stayed at the "Two Casitas" in a unti called "Old Santa Fe Trail". As it ended up, we spent most of the time in the casita. We just had too much to get caught-up with our lives. The casita was so comfortable, roomie and quiet. We chatted in the living room, the big bedroom, the outdoor patio and dining room. We spread-out over the entire unit and never felt cramped or invasive. The casita is like a small apartment with kitchen, laudry room and plenty of closet space. It is decorated nicely and with plently of natural sunlight. Although it sits behind a street, amazingly it was quiet. It is located within walking distance of town. We never had to drive anywhere. We would return to "Two Casitas" in a heartbeat!
