Property Description
Unique geodesic dome home central to NMSU, I-10 and Old Mesilla. Approximately 40 minutes to White Sands NP. Gated, secluded and secure. BEFORE BOOKING, READ NOTE BELOW ABOUT LOUD TRAINS AND CELL TOWER! The home is a former caretaker's place and is located inside a fenced and gated four acre business yard. The business is at the other end of the property from the house (about 800' away). Please see our check in instructions which show pictures of everything and where to enter the property.
You will have use of the entire main floor which consists of two large bedrooms, full kitchen, large bath , dining and main room plus the upstairs loft area. The upstairs master bedroom and bath is being renovated for future use, and is not currently available. There is also a basement which will be kept locked at all times, and is reserved for Host's personal use.

CELL TOWER NEARBY! There is a cell tower adjacent to property. Anyone who thinks they might be affected by a cell tower should NOT book this property. No refunds will be given because of cell tower.
LOUD TRAINS! As the listing title says, this is the locally famous Train-House Dome. That means it's right next to the tracks! The house is next to the Santa Fe Railroad, which crosses South Valley Dr. nearby (please see the pictures for an aerial view which shows proximity). As such, when a train passes you WILL be able to hear its horn and feel the rumble. BNSF (Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway) says they average 5 trains per day, but most of those are during daylight hours. Be aware there COULD be several pass in the night! But that's relatively unusual. Earplugs are provided free of charge just in case to help you have a restful sleep. Please do NOT BOOK if you are in any way uncomfortable about a train or trains passing by in the night. And please remember it's NOT FAIR to rate us lower than 5 stars because of the train(s)!!

Cute but needs TLC
The listing is very accurate. The trains were cool. Great location in the middle of everything. Property needs some TLC.

Very unique house
We enjoyed this house very very much. We'd never been in a house design like this before. It had great character with everything rotating out from the kitchen. Well stocked and we were able to cook each night.
One suggestion: place no-slip strips in bathtub. Makes it safer for people for those of us that need a bit more stability while showering.
All in all great place to stay. Close to food and access to highways for travel to White Sands, Mesilla and other places.
Thanks for making a great and memorable vacation. 😎

Give This One a Miss
Detoured purposefully to Las Cruces to stay in this historical, funky property. It was simply not clean. Popcorn debris in bedroom, musty odor, and seriously offputting toilet. Promptly removed myself to nearby hotel - I can recommend the Staybridge Suites! Too bad. This place has real potential but was just not ready for guests.

I can't believe this
I was not thrilled that I was required to purchase an insurance police for $60, something I've never been required to do anywhere else.
Everything was fine until I just opened my e-mail to find that a claim has been filed against this insurance policy to replace the carpet for $433.
One of our dogs pooped on the carpet this morning, which my wife promptly picked up. She sprayed with Odoban and then wiped it up.
Now, they're claiming the carpet needs to be replaced?
