About this property

CASA SANDIA PEAK. Unobstructed Mountain/Tram Views. Serenity-Wildlife-Pets OK.

Enjoy this cozy, 2 bedroom Sandia Heights home. On corner lot, with quiet and tranquil surroundings. Experience the serenity of the natural, high desert landscape; and appreciate the wildlife that visits you from the nearby arroyo. This property has Southwestern solitude, yet the amenities of a metropolitan city, and Albuquerque's diverse culture. From the comfort of your living room's leather recliners, you can view the Sandia Mountains; and see the entire length of the world's longest Tram. Or use the telescope or binoculars for stargazing or birdwatching. Experience the 'watermelon' sunset hues, while grilling and dining on the outdoor patio. Spend time on the swing with your children/grandchildren (when they are not enjoying the nearby playground and park). Or just relax with a margarita or cerveza.

You will be 5 minutes from the Sandia Peak Tram, and 10 minutes from the Sandia Resort & Casino (golf, dining, gambling, dancing, entertainment). The Tram is easy access to the 'back side' of Sandia Peak, for winter skiing and summer mountain biking. Sandia Heights is an epicenter for 'outdoor' living. Extensive biking/jogging/blading trail just steps away, with 2 BICYCLES and HELMETS PROVIDED (can provide additional bikes if needed). Property sits in middle of a hiker's paradise, with some of the favorite trails 5-10 minutes from your doorstep (La Luz Trail, Tramway Loop, Elena Gallegos Nature Trail, Pino, Domingo Baca, and Piedra Lisa Canyon). Ample library of maps and guide books furnished for your use.

Decorated in local color and Native art, this is a perfect spot for creativity, writing, or just relaxing with family. Located in the Sandia foothills just South of Paseo Del Norte and East of Tramway Blvd.

The Best!!
We love Casa Sandia Peak! Beverly is a wonderful host and checked in more than once to see if we needed anything. The view is spectacular! The wildlife is amazing (hummingbirds, deer, quail, road runners). The kitchen had everything we needed for a family dinner and morning coffee in the swing is not to be missed! It’s incredibly quiet and peaceful and still close to town.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this home and would come again! Beverly, the host, was available for questions and provided great hospitality. She even provided snacks and beverages for us upon arrival and all of the supplies you could ever need while staying in a home.

Unforgettable Month
We were greeted upon arrival by our awesome hosts, Beverly & Phil, with delicious snacks, jalapeño margaritas and other local goodies. Beverly showed us how things work in the house as well as area information and recommendations. Casa Sandia Peak is a comfortable home with all the amenities and breath taking views. The location on the arroyo is quiet and private. There are plenty of places to walk right out the back or front door, perfect if your dog has accompanied you. We felt so at home here it was hard to leave. We definitely plan to come back to this wonderful place!

Beautiful home in wonderful location
This is a beautiful home with everything we needed for a fun and relaxing stay. We took several walks and runs up the arroyo into the mountains right from the back door. Beverly and Phil were great hosts and provided lots of information about things to do and places to see, and made sure we had everything we needed. Thanks!

Sandia Gem
Perfect location with daily visits from mule deer, roadrunners, coyote. Unhindered views of the beautiful Sandias. Very comfortable beds. Well-stocked kitchen and bathrooms. The hosts, Bev and Phil, could not have been nicer - met us with fresh guacamole and margaritas, all the info we needed. Answered our phone calls quickly. A perfect experience for us.

Everything was perfect!
We spent wonderful days with family, just spending time in the magnificent foothills of the Sandia's. We cooked in the well-stocked kitchen, had cocktails in front of the fire and enjoyed the wildlife wandering through the backyard (many deer)! Thank you for a wonderful time! We'll be back!

The perfect choice for 1 or 2 couples
First of all, the hosts were the best we've experienced in all of our VRBO stays. We were met upon arrival and shown all the ins and outs of the property. The home was very well stocked with the necessities; coffee, tp, paper towels, etc plus a sampling of local treats. Very generous. There were more than enough reading materials to acquaint a visitor to both Albuquerque and New Mexico overall. We found many things to entertain us that we wouldn't have known about otherwise. The hosts went well above and beyond to make sure we had a good vacation. Possibly the biggest treat though was the entertainment furnished by all of the animals visiting the back yard. Rabbits arrived early, usually followed by deer, followed by birds. We had as many as 15 deer in the yard at once and they visited every day. Special sightings were a Coopers Hawk, who scared everything else away, but sat in a tree for 90 minutes. It must have been napping. On Thanksgiving morning, a lynx, I guess locally called a bobcat came and sat at the edge of the deck for a bit. Roadrunners and quails passed through every few days. Casa Sandia Peak comes with our highest recommendation, and we wouldn't hesitate to spend our next visit to Albuquerque there.
