    What an extraordinary gem hidden in southern New Mexico. I honestly had no idea what to expect from…read morethe Pelham House; I had obliged to be the DD for several of my parents' friends for their Christmas dinner; a quaint little adobe home from the outside, this "bed and breakfast" location is absolutely stunning and gorgeous (especially by NM standards). There is the magazine, "Ventanas," which typically highlights several beautiful homes around the southwest (reminds me of the national equivalent, "Frontgate," on a much lesser scale). Decorated for the Christmas season, the Pelham House would have every right to be featured in Ventanas with its cozy and impressive interior decorating (I'll upload some pictures later). Every little ornate detail in the house was executed to near perfection. I wanted to take home all of the glassware/stemware! The decorating in the house is among the best I've ever seen anywhere. In addition to this, the rooms throughout the house are definitely worth the visit. There is a large atrium in the very center of the home, capable of seating many patrons. I saw two different bedrooms, each with their own southwestern flair. There is also a game room and, of course, a cozy den! Since we came for just dinner, our stay lasted approximately 3 hours. TIP: Bring your own booze. They do not have a liquor license, but they are apparently allowed to serve a "Welcome drink." While I had some particularly delicious iced tea all night, our friends were greeted with a nice holiday cocktail-- I was told that last time they were served some tasty bellinis. Carol and Robert were exceedingly hospitable-- Carol acted as our waitress for the night and we were always attended to and had everything we needed. In addition, CC is a very talented chef. We were also welcomed with an hors' d'oeuvre consisting of a delectable baked wheel of Brie, accompanied by sliced mushrooms, whole jalapenos, slices of bread, and a clove of garlic. I could not get enough of this! I may or may not have spoiled some of my dinner with eating such copious amounts of this delicious starter... We started our 4-course dinner with a must-have soup: southwestern corn chowder. A perfect level of spicy kick balanced with the sweet corn made for a true winner. We followed this wish a refreshing salad served on a frozen plate (I love little details like this). The salad was dressed in a champagne raspberry vinaigrette with a dash of honey. Also a winner! The main course consisted of sliced pieces of tender pork, red-skin mashed potatoes, and cubed roasted butternut squash. Overall, a good dish. Dessert was a Mexican chocolate cake complete with a heavy amount of homemade candy-cane ice cream. For everything, the total came to ~$53 per person. I found this to be very reasonable as the food was far above average and the ambiance of the home is perfect. Why 4 stars and not 5? Well, the friend of ours that coordinated the whole dinner had specifically requested two of the dishes had to have chicken as the entree (they cannot eat pork/red meat). All of the dishes came out, and there was no chicken to be found. Our friend had told us that she specifically mentioned this on the phone more than once. TIP: Get it in writing via email. Bottom line? Downright gorgeous venue, fantastic homemade food, and a delightful ambiance that will encourage you to want to come back for more.

Over the years several wealthy owners put considerable money in its expansion and architecture and used it as their personal residence. Thus the place is very charming.

Judy the owner is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious, especially the perfectly fluffy muffins and fresh juice. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean. The location was convenient and had everything we needed. Do call ahead for reservations! This place has a loyal following and fills up with local events and bird watching season. Use the directions on their website to find it ( http://www.doscasitasensocorro.com ) --google maps and apple maps will take you to the wrong place.

Dos Casitas is charming and comfortable, with a great bed (always a priority for me) and lots of sweet extras, like little jars of owner Judy Kurtz's homemade apricot jam for us to take home. She brought us a coffee and light breakfast tray in the evening so we could have something in our stomachs when we left for the bosque at 6:15 a.m., and then made us a real breakfast when we returned a few hours later. Breakfast with other guests and Judy's expertise on the area were a lively addition. It's so wonderful to have these human encounters when traveling, as opposed to the sterility of a hotel! Thanks, Judy, we'll be back!
