Fantastic Stay!
We enjoyed our stay at this place. We did a college tour with friends and Casa de Maiz was located very close to NMSU. GG, our hostess, communicated with us quickly and added a very nice special touch to our weekend. The house is well stocked, clean and comfortable. There are plenty of places nearby to shop. It is a quiet neighborhood and easy to get to. Check out was easier than most places. We will stay here again and highly recommend it. Thanks GG for making it so awesome!

It's all about the details...
Plenty of nice things to say about listing and how it lives up to it's description. Location, cleanliness, check-in, amenities, all 5 stars. Some stuff not in the listing that is massively underrated are a well detailed binder for your stay, labels everywhere, even labels telling you where to find what you are looking for if it's not where you expect, solid communication, and and a treat left for us upon checkin. It was a great experience and very solid value for the price. Highly recommend it!

Absolutely wonderful property!
This property was perfect for our needs. It was in great shape. Very clean and had whatever you could possible want - including several different coffee makers to make sure you had the type you wanted. The yard was fully fenced for our dogs and it was nice to sit out back on the porch area. There are a couple of wonderful little reading areas in the main bedroom (which is huge!) and the living room with super comfortable chairs and nice lighting. Honestly Gale and Tom thought of everything in outfitting this great place. It is definitely like a home away from home and I can't recommend it highly enough. We will definitely ask for it again if we are in Las Cruces.

Cool quiet oasis
The house was a lovely cool quiet oasis. This property was exactly as advertised. It has a great layout, well equipped kitchen , comfy beds and is in a beautiful little neighborhood right near NMSU. The restaurant recommendations steered us well. We loved walking around and looking at plants. Went to White Sands Monument for sunset which we really recommend. Gail was friendly and helpful. We will stay here again for sure if our kid chooses this university!

Great location for NMSU families
Spacious, well-provisioned, comfortable and a 3-minute drive to campus. This was a great base of operations for moving my daughter and her kitten to Las Cruces for the fall semester. Gail was very accommodating and communicative. I definitely recommend this property.
