Having driven a long way to get there (from Wisconsin) for over 10 years, we know they have a vision about how the place should be and we appreciate the extraordinary effort which sometime also means firmness that Mike and Becky take to preserve the ambience of their little corner of paradise. They're very experienced in the hospitality business and know what it takes to assure the tranquillity that many of us seek in a unique place like this. — Guests from Wisconsin

Casitas de Gila opened in June 1999. Whether you're looking to stay for one night or many nights, for bed and breakfast accommodation or for a vacation rental cabin with your own kitchen, you will find that we have everything you need to enjoy Southwestern New Mexico and the Silver City area at any time of year.

The five guesthouses of Casitas de Gila feature southwestern adobe-style architecture. Each Casita has a kiva fireplace (seasonal operation) with a supply of firewood, ceiling vigas (round wooden beams), a portal (small, traditional porch), a fully-equipped kitchen, and a living room with dining area.

Winter is a wonderful time to vacation in our part of the world, especially for those interested in daytime outdoor activities and/or night sky viewing.
