Donna's place was immaculately clean and so peaceful. We appreciated the space for all of us to spread out and the kitchen was stocked perfectly for our needs. The back porch is a beautiful place to have breakfast or an evening of family time. All of the benefits of Rio Rancho are within a few minutes' drive. Great stay!

Great stay!

This property in Rio Rancho strikes a good balance between access to shopping and restaurants with a secluded feel. The neighborhood is quiet and an interesting mix of older homes and new builds. The house was very clean and has the most supplies, such as cooking and cleaning products, that I have ever seen! We got to see hot air balloons on Saturday morning!, which was awesome.

We loved the room we had in this house and that our fur baby could come without an extra charge. The neighborhood was quiet which was great for bike riding and relaxing. We loved having a few extras in the pantry and fridge so we could cook at home and spend our time visiting.
