Summary:
Welcome to Arroyo Seco's Getaway, a light-filled southwestern home where high-desert calm meets easy mountain access. Wake to nearly 180-degree mountain views, then stroll a quarter mile into Arroyo Seco village for coffee, galleries, and local eats. Taos Plaza and Taos Ski Valley sit about ten miles in either direction, so world-class skiing and rich culture are both an easy drive. After a day out, sink into the private hot tub in the enclosed flagstone backyard and watch the stars come out.
The Space:
Arroyo Seco's Getaway is a light-filled southwestern home just a quarter mile from the heart of Arroyo Seco village. Set against the mountains of Northern New Mexico, it is built around its views, with nearly 180-degree mountain scenery from almost every room and a warm, rustic feel throughout.
Tall ceilings and exposed wood beams give the main living space an airy, relaxed character, while a split-bedroom layout keeps the primary suite private from the guest wing. Two separate living areas, an open kitchen, and a sunny dining space make it easy for six guests to spread out or gather together.
Whether you are here to ski Taos Ski Valley, explore the galleries and cafes of Arroyo Seco, or simply soak in the hot tub under a sky full of stars, this home is a comfortable, authentic base for your Northern New Mexico stay.

The Neighborhood:
Arroyo Seco is a small, artsy village at the foot of the mountains on the road to Taos Ski Valley, known for its galleries, local shops, and cafes. It offers a laid-back, walkable pocket of Northern New Mexico while keeping Taos and the slopes within an easy drive.
Getting Around:
A car is recommended for getting around Taos, Arroyo Seco, and the nearby mountains.
GPS can occasionally route to the wrong location. From Taos, take NM-150 toward Arroyo Seco for about 4 miles, then turn onto Calle Vidal and continue a short distance to number 18 on the right.
In winter, higher-elevation roads can be snow-packed, so AWD or 4WD is recommended, especially driving up to Taos Ski Valley.
