THE SUNSET RETREAT · ENTIRE HOME · SUNLIT HILLS OF SANTA FE
A Santa Fe sunset retreat with Sangre de Cristo views.
Six private acres in the Sunlit Hills, where the evening's entertainment is the sky doing its thing over the Sangre de Cristos. Dinner at the ten-person table, then everyone drifts to the outdoor kiva. That's the whole pitch.

ABOUT CASA DE CAMINO
A 1980s adobe, restored for the way families travel now.
The Ice family purchased and lovingly restored this 1980s adobe home as an homage to their grandparents — Grandma Lee and Grandpa Noel Ice, who moved to Santa Fe in 1988 and spent over 30 years here introducing the whole family to the enchantment of this place.
Enjoy a modern twist on Santa Fe living with a large six-bedroom estate on 6 acres of New Mexico's natural beauty. While soaking up the day in the hot tub or catching Georgia O'Keeffe–worthy sunsets around the outdoor kiva fireplace, Casa de Camino delivers the kind of quiet that's getting harder to find.
THE VIEW
Long Sangre de Cristo views from the outdoor kiva.
The Sangre de Cristo range runs the whole eastern horizon from here, and the sunsets behind you light it up. You don't just see the mountains; you live among them.
THE SUNSET DECK
Firepit, outdoor sauna, elevated platform. One place, three moods.
The sunset deck was designed to be the heartbeat of the home. Start in the sauna, move to the firepit, and end the night under the clearest stars in New Mexico.
THE KITCHEN
Commercial-range. Big island. Ten-person table.
A kitchen built for more than just cooking. It's built for the conversation that happens while the cooking is going on. High-end appliances meet high-desert hospitality.
6 ACRES
Six acres, zero neighbors within earshot.
Quiet. Actual, true quiet. The property sits in Sunlit Hills, a quiet neighborhood of large-acreage lots, giving you total privacy without sacrificing proximity to downtown Santa Fe.

LOCATION
Close enough to the Plaza. Far enough to feel the desert.
Casa de Camino is located in Sunlit Hills, a quiet neighborhood of large acreage lots just south of Santa Fe proper. You're about 16 minutes from the Plaza, but you feel like you're in the deep desert — and the Nine-Mile Rail Trail is a walk from the front door.

CASA DE CAMINO · FAQ
Questions guests ask before booking.
How many people does Casa de Camino sleep?+
12 adults, plus small children, across 6 bedrooms. Designed for multigen families, milestone birthdays, and small groups who want quiet.
How far from the Plaza is Casa de Camino?+
About 16 minutes by car. You're in Sunlit Hills — large-acreage lots just south of Santa Fe with the Plaza, Canyon Road, and Museum Hill all a short drive away.
What makes Camino different from Casa de Ice?+
Camino is the sunset-and-sky house: long Sangre de Cristo views, an outdoor adobe kiva fireplace, and six private acres. Casa de Ice is the wellness retreat with sauna, cold plunge, and hot tub. See the side-by-side comparison on our compare page.
Can we use the outdoor kiva fireplace year-round?+
Yes. The adobe kiva is a wood-burning outdoor fireplace and is one of the most-loved features of the home. Firewood is provided for every stay.
What's included with a direct booking?+
Direct pricing with no Airbnb service fee (10–15% savings), our 38-page Santa Fe guide, and a direct line to Gustavo, our local property manager.

GOOD TO KNOW
Before you arrive.
- ! The outdoor terrain is natural high desert — cactus, yucca, rocky areas, steep flagstone stairs. Use caution, especially with children and elderly guests.
- ! The commercial range uses manual ignition — burners must be lit with a lighter. Pilot lights are intentionally disabled for safety.
- ! Hot tub cover is for insulation only — do not sit or stand on it. No alarm on the hot tub; supervise children at all times.
- ! Sound travels in the back arroyo. Even conversation carries to neighboring properties after quiet hours.
- ! Exterior security cameras at the pergola, front door, and exterior door.
