By the way, The first thing you’ll notice upon stepping from the marble floored foyer into the living room, is how the unique flooring throughout the house provides your first unexpected level of comfort in your Southwest home-away-from-home. Kick your boots off, and accept the soothe traveler.
The house proper, is surrounded by a bloc wall that provides your privacy, and a barrier between your comfort and all the desert thorns, stickers and critters.
Guests at the Hole in the Wall have full access to the surrounding property, inside and outside the wall.
Inside the wall amenities include:
The entire front yard as your own personal space. You can even opt to spend the night under the stars on a queen size inflatable bed out there. And boy do we have stars.
Covered patio with BBQ and adjacent outdoor dining area.
The Zia-Rise Garden where you’ll find 3 stations of relaxation to include our ZiaRise Perch. Watch the sunrise with coffee, yoga or meditation. (we can also set up a bed for overnight sleeping!)
MOST OF ALL – You’ll find the Hole in the Wall that leads you to the Cool pool / Hot tub, sunbathing deck w/chaise lounges, and a shaded spot to sit and enjoy the sounds and views anytime of the day.
Outside the wall amenities include:
The Sunset viewing deck – An outdoor living room complete with firepit as needed in winter.
A walking path around the property (eight times around is a mile!)
We both know the good reasons to be visiting the historic Village of Columbus, NM. Right?
Game Hunters, Rockhounders, Cyclists, Military History buffs, Pancho Villa’s Gold prospectors, crossing the border for inexpensive services, goods and tours or…
Shhh…YOU WANNA SEE THE WALL
Or maybe, you could use a hidden getaway to
write that novel, regroup, or really hide.
Regardless why you’re coming, I’m basically the
“Four Seasons” of Columbus or Deming.
I’m looking for those guests that want, and/or require
the best standards available to them.
