About Us

Lake View Domes is a unique retreat nestled within a gated community, thoughtfully created for travelers seeking tranquility, natural beauty, and a profound connection to the land. Founded by Marie and Cindy, a passionate LGBTQAI+ couple, this haven reflects their deep love for the expansive horizons and serene mornings of Abiquiu.

You may also meet Zia, their lovable mixed‑breed dog and unofficial greeter. She’s gentle, friendly, and always hopeful that a guest might offer a treat or an ear‑rub. Zia loves people, respects boundaries, and adds a little extra joy to the property for those who enjoy canine company.

History

They found this place by fate and accident.

In 2016, Marie and Cindy, then living in Florida, visited Albuquerque for Balloon Fiesta. With some extra time, they decided to explore surrounding areas and headed to Abiquiu for the annual Artist’s Studio Tour.

With the spark of an idea Marie and Cindy fell in love with the land and purchased 10 acres of undeveloped, high desert property.

Marie and Cindy built Lake View Homes, doing much of the work themselves. Today, they live in the main dome on the property and share their paradise with guests in the minnedome. Marie as the main caretaker of the property, bakes the chocolate chip cookies that greet every guest, provides massage services, and ensures every guest is able to enjoy the magic of Abiquiu.
