THE LOCATION

Located in the center of Taos, this historic plaza is home to galleries, boutiques, and popular local eateries.

Drive 20 minutes to visit the historic adobe settlement of Taos Pueblo. Also within a 20-minute drive, the 900’-deep Rio Grande Gorge is worth a visit for epic views of the canyon and river below. Picnic areas surrounding the gorge offer a perfect spot for lunch. The luxurious Ojo Caliente spa is less than an hours’ drive away.

The description of this home was spot on. It was perfect. The home is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The gourmet kitchen is exactly that! It’s lacking for nothing. 360 degree views and we had to decide which way we wanted to face when relaxing outside! Secluded, private and QUIET. Can’t wait to come back.

Loved everything about this home. Lovely southwestern style with attractive decor. Beautiful kitchen/family room, comfortable bedrooms with 2 nice bathrooms.

Ski Trip Stay

Beautiful, secluded property that had everything our group needed to enjoy our stay. Less than 30 minutes away from Taos Ski Valley made this location perfect for us. The hot tub was great for relaxing at the end of the day. Overall our whole group was incredibly impressed.

Peaceful getaway

We enjoyed our time in Taos and our stay at this home. The location is very secluded without any neighbors visible from the house our patio. This made it a very peaceful getaway. But still a short drive to some good restaurants and an easy strive into Taos. Amazing views of the mountains and night sky. The house has no air conditioning, but even on the hot summer days, we were comfortable by opening the windows overnight to cool down the house. A good layout with large open concept and roomy bedrooms and bathrooms.

The property was very well appointed and clean. The location is private but convenient to the slopes and not a bad drive into town either. We will be back for years to come.

Gorgeous views!

Would have given 5 stars but the master bed mattress is worn and needs replaced. Incredible views from every room! Hot tub was much needed after skiing each day. 30 min drive to Taos Ski Valley and 10 minutes from Taos downtown area. We took our Golden Retriever and he loved the space. The property isn’t fenced but is secluded so we never had a leash on our dog. Kitchen is stocked with non-grocery essentials so I was able to cook every day while in the mountains. Pics do not display the majestic Mountain View’s!

Ski trip

Beautiful property and well maintained. Comfortable beds including pull out sofa bed. Full kitchen necessities. Basic toiletries and laundry supplies with well maintained washer and dryer. 10 minute drive into town of Taos. 25-30 minute drive to Taos Ski Valley and 1 hour to Angel Fire. Hot tub perfect after ski and well maintained. House very clean. Only issue was flies. When we arrived, many dead flies under kitchen window sills and back doors both in main room and in master bedroom. Would be worth having a small hand-held vacuum to keep clean. Otherwise, great stay for myself and a friend, my two teenage boys and his teenage son.

Despite a concerning problem at check-in, wrong tenant had correct instructions to unlock our doors, and a blocked toilet which took 24 hours to correct, we still had a lovely time at this rental. The management company was quick to respond and always took our concerns seriously and worked as quickly as they could. We would stay here again!

One of our favorite rentals ever

We loved the spacious, clean house with the beautiful high desert land and sprawling views. Well stocked kitchen, abundant pillows, direct TV, and the hot tub made this property stand out.

Lovely Ski Home

The house was excellent and was 100% as-advertised. If my group of friends/family decides we want to do Taos again, we would absolutely stay here. It was only about 4 turns and 20 minutes to/from the mountain with beautiful scenery the whole way. The only downside was being about 25-30 minutes from the larger grocery stores, but if you just need to pop out for some chips or wine there's a small, well-supplied market just 2 miles from the house. Would definitely recommend this place to Taos Ski Valley visitors!
