'Casa del Medio' Adobe Retreat Home

Northern New Mexico Home Available for Creative Retreat or Sabbatical Rental

June still has a few dates left...July is ready to book. August & Sept still have some dates left!

A wonderful northern New Mexico home available by the day, week or month for artists, writers, songwriters, meditators, or anyone who just wants a peaceful get-away. In keeping with Art of the Song's mission to inspire creativity worldwide, we think offering our creative sanctuary to those who want to enhance their creativity is the perfect thing to do!

At 8,000 ft in altitude the clear crisp air is refreshing by day and gives way to a night sky blanketed by billions of stars (telescope included!). A few days or weeks in this magnificent setting offer a perspective that can often yield breakthrough insights. Whether you're a visual artist, writer or musician, creative inspiration abounds in this high desert/mountain retreat setting.

Walking trails are just a matter of opening the front gate, and for the serious hiker the Kit Carson National Forest––with trails to the Latir Wilderness––is less than a mile away.

Looking out from the living room to the east, crows dance in the breeze while the occasional hawk or eagle catches a thermal high above the snow capped (September through June) peaks.
