On its small plaza there are a few adobe houses, one of which is a very charming two bedroom, one bath vacation home. The thick adobe walls have built-in traditional nicho's. The dining area comes with traditonal banco's and throughout the casita are tiled and wooden floors. A woodstove gives you great comfort in the winter. The thick walls keeps the house cool in the summer. A large garden with fruit trees surrounds the casita. In Barranca you will find a lively creek coming from the mountains. Follow the spring-fed creek up-stream and enter the Santa Fe National Forest with sensational views of the Abiquiu valley and the surrounding mountain lands. Badlands with goblin-like formations are nearby. The Chama River, along which are cattle ranches, is great for fishing. The casita is just minutes from Georgia O'Keeffe's home and a short drive from the Piedra Lumbre basin. Ghost Ranch is worth many visits and don't forget to drive out into the Chama River canyon to hike or visit the Benedictine Monastery. The Chama River Wilderness is paradise for explorers. The acequia, the traditional Hispanic community water system, is still held in high regard in Barranca. The mayordomo decides who irrigates when. The casita’s garden can be irrigated on Saturdays. Great day trips can be made to Ojo Caliente Mineral Hot Springs, Taos en Taos Pueblo, the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge, Santa Fe, Los Alamos, Chama (with the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad), Bandelier National Monument, Chaco Culture National Historic Park, Valle Grande, etc. etc. Hiking all throughout Georgia O'Keeffe's country side. Ghost Ranch, where Ms O'Keeffe had her studio, is just around the corner, Fishing in Abiquiu Lake or the Chama River, Hunting in Santa Fe and Carson National Forests (offices for obtaining permits in nearby El Rito and Espanola), Sightseeing all through the Canones Canyon and Piedra Lumbre valley, Boating and Waterskiing in Abiquiu Lake, Rafting on the Chama River. You'll find restaurants in nearby Abiquiu, El Rito, Espanola. Each year in October - Columbus Days Weekend - Abiquiu has its Abiquiu Studio Tour. A great time to enjoy the changing colors of our cottonwood trees and art by local artists. You can visit about 60 artists in their Abiquiu studios, of which 3-5 of them are within walking distance of Barranca Plaza Casita.

Mrs.Martinez showed us the casita and answered any questions we had. It snowed and Floyd was so kind to bring wood and fire starting materials so we could build a fire in the atove the next morning. It was cozuu ya sitting by the stove watching the fire through the glass door of the stove. Phone service is sketchy, but the TV worked great. We watched Netflix some. The bed was very comfortable and the area quiet and safe. We enjoyed our stay. Floyd was very responsive to any questions. ##### Sherri W.

Floyd started a fire in the wood stove every morning as my Girl Scout fire starting badge had lapsed. Old traditional adobe with just enough modern amenities. My dogs ran and ran and enjoyed the great outdoors. I sat in front of the fire and read a book. ##### Georgellen B. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Virginia V.

This was a lovely and cozy little adobe cottage surrounded by Floyd's well-kept garden in a country setting. Perfect for one or two people who want a quiet getaway. Having said that, I can't stress enough how the warm and welcoming personalities of Floyd and Ninfa Martinez made my stay there wonderful. They are non-intrusive but available and friendly and I felt like family by the time I left. Ninfa brought over her fabulous zucchini bread and Floyd shared his garden delights. I was very happy to be able to bring my two dogs with me. Like so many other reviews, I have to agree that this was a 10/10\. ##### Virginia V.

You get to experience the feeling of an adobe casita (thick walls, everything rounded including doorways and all edges. The dining nook was unique. There were great views from the front porch and patio area. The casita was spacious with lots of tile work. The location was convenient for all there is to see around Abiquiu and the price was very reasonable. Suggestions for the listing--need a better map to get you their (too many opportunities to be on the wrong road or make a wrong turn--we got lost twice, but easy once you get the correct way). Also, no door or covering on the second bedroom and must go thru the main bedroom to get to the bath (did not matter to us, but would be a surprise to others). Overall, we loved the experience! Floyd was very friendly and helpful. ##### Rolland W. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### donna m.

So fortunate (and proud) to have found this casita in Abiquiu.The aesthetic was divine as was our host Floyd, and his family. It was a wonderful experience and will now be cherished memories.. ##### donna m.
