Called to inquire about availability for a booking. They wouldn't even consider giving us pricing…read morebecause our group would "be too big". Initially, we asked about the casita, for four adults and small children. They said we're too many. Then we asked about booking the casita and a room, got turned away. Guess they don't like kids. REPLY: We were certainly willing to rent out as much space/rooms necessary to adhere to your occupancy rules. You mentioned several times in our conversation that your guests valued peace and quiet. You kept saying that a group would disrupt that, as if a group of 5 (which is allowed in the casita) is not a group. If the casita and a separate room were not available, you could have said that but you didn't. The only conclusion I can come up with is that it's because we had small children, you assumed we would be loud, as if a group of 5 adults can't be just as rowdy. Other comments in the reviews mention you were rude, and I got to say, the tone you used over the phone wasn't very friendly either.

It's always a worry when trying to find a place like this and only booking for one night but it was no problem at Casitas de Gila. Get ready for a 5 mile dirt road to get there but rest assured the road is well maintained and not scary for those traveling in a regular passenger car. As others have mentioned, be sure to grab your supplies in Silver City or bring them with you because once you get to Casitas de Gila, you're not gonna want to leave, especially if it means traveling in the evening! Checked in at the office with Becky and she was kind and friendly. Michael greeted us at our casita and gave us the grand tour. He's a very friendly, knowledgeable man (geologist) who gave us so much information about the land, the history, animals and dark skies. The casita (we were in the bird casita) is so comfortable! Super comfy bed, lots of plush towels and extra blankets/pillows, heated floors, BBQs (charcoal and propane), birdseed to feed the tons of quail, entertainment in the way of board games, books and such, a telescope and lots of stuff for cooking to make your stay enjoyable. All the dishes/cookware you'd need, coffee/tea/filters, spices/seasonings, condiments and included were a fresh half gallon of milk, orange juice, bagels, English muffins, cream cheese, butter, jellies/jams and a delightfully delicious loaf of pumpkin pecan bread that Becky makes. Incredible! We grilled steaks and corn on the Weber grill and enjoyed a night of board games when we weren't outside stargazing. The little art gallery is full of jewelry (Becky makes some), beautiful oil paintings (Michael is a great artist), t-shirts, cups, and plenty of other interesting items. We purchased a t-shirt and cup with the Casitas name on them and bought a very interesting and unique mask made from a gourd. We loved our stay at Casitas de Gila and would love to stay there again!

The Gila Hot Springs were highly spoken of in Silver City, but don't have a big online footprint,…read moreso we had to trust the map and just find out when we got there. There is an RV park, a ranch and a campsite, all seem to be owned by different people, but all surrounding the Gila Hot Springs, which are family owned and run. You need to bring cash, or they also accept PayPal, and you can sign into their WiFi for that. The hot spring has three pools to choose from, and you can sign in to reserve one for two hours max. You can go between the cold Gila River and the hot springs as much as you want to. There is a clean pit toilet you can change in, and the host is so nice!! He will make change if you need it, can check the temperature of the pools for you and adjust the speed of the hot spring water flow to make it hotter or cooler. There are picnic tables, as well as a constantly running stone that offers cold drinking water, a hot running sink to wash your hands, and a cute dragon fountain. We loved it here.

The studio was closed and wouldn't be open during our brief stay, but I was impressed the view from the window. In addition to the contents of the studio, I was extremely impressed with the openness of the business itself. With unapologetic window decals talking about Covid safe practices, Biden/Harris election support, BLM, and a rainbow flag, I knew that this gem of an art studio welcomes everyone equally. Small towns and their inhabitants don't always have this mentality, which I have encountered in my travels.
