Property Information |

Located between river and red rocks, Casa Granada offers dramatic views and serene solitude.
The views from the house are sensational. On one side the colorful Chama River is lined with old cottonwood forest. On the other side the majestic red cliffs rise on old Spanish Land Grants and National Forest lands.
Casa Granada has a welcoming sunroom in addition to its spacious living/kitchen/dining area, one bedroom with a queen-size bed, and one bathroom. In the living area, a full-size sleeper futon is available to accommodate two additional guests. The house comes fully equipped including a utility room with washer and dryer. The interior is stylish and elegant, blending New Mexican design features with Moorish accents. This exquisitely finished house features hand-carved furniture and woodwork details from the master artisan at Andaluz Woodwork. This house also offers lovely, relaxing outdoor space.
Casa Granada is located a short distance from the pueblo of Abiquiu. A brief drive or a beautiful walk will take you to Plaza Blanca, Abiquiu's intriguing white limestone formations. Plan a hike on a full moon night and you will be moonstruck by the bright glow of white stone pillars and gnome-like hoodoos.
Nearby are Ghost Ranch, the Piedra Lumbre (Valley of Shining Stone), Abiquiu Lake, prehistoric Indian ruins, and hundreds of thousands of acres of wilderness (in the Santa Fe and Carson National Forests). Hiking galore. Peace and quiet abundant. Natural beauty everywhere you look.
Look for writings on the rock walls: petroglyphs from the Anasazi culture. Stumble across the remnants of prehistoric Indian ‘mulch gardens’. Soak up the colors of the nearby overwhelmingly beautiful Piedra Lumbre basin. Visit Chaco Culture’s Pueblo Bonito and Chetro Ketl, a great day trip from Abiquiu. Look down into the deep Rio Grande gorge.

Virgin nature. Breathtaking vermilion cliffs. ‘Jurassic Park’ all around, with some layers even older. Mustard-colored slopes, white sandstone cathedrals, endless deserts, sprawling high plains, wide calderas, snow-topped peaks. Deep canyons, fast-flowing rivers. This is stunning O’Keeffe Country.
Hiking, backpacking, horseback riding, rafting and kayaking, fishing for trout, or just being lazy under the New Mexico sun (shines 350 days a year). In the winter: snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, downhill racing.
Enjoy New Mexico cuisine in nearby El Rito, Espanola, Taos or Santa Fe.
Around Abiquiu, New Mexico, hundreds of thousand of acres of National Forest lands are waiting to be explored. Much of the area is wilderness where trekking and camping are free, where no ‘worldly’ sounds can be heard.

Within easy reach are: Indian Pueblos, prehistoric Anasazi ruins including the center of the ancient Chaco Culture, Monument Valley, the Valley of the Gods, Rocky Mountains ranges like the Sangre de Cristo, art towns Santa Fe and Taos, the Rio Grande gorge, the Chama River canyon, Ghost Ranch, the mountain resort town of Durango.
