Historic Home of Taos Artist -Peak Season Dates Available! Best Location

STVR permit# STR 2018-00012

There are many houses in Taos for visitors to choose from, but this one stands out for its authenticity and charm. Built by men from the Taos Pueblo in the 1940's for the artist Charles H. Reynolds and his wife Ruth, it is unique and very lovely.
The home is furnished with many of the original antiques, and the walls are hung with paintings by Reynolds and many of his contemporaries. You will feel as if you have stepped back in time, surrounded by thick adobe walls and hand carved beams in the ceilings. The fireplace crackles with pinion wood fires in the winter, scenting the air with its fragrance.
Modern amenities include a high efficiency heater, high speed internet, comfortable beds, and a well equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and microwave oven. There is a washer and dryer and supplies available for your convenience.
One bedroom has a queen bed, the small sunroom has a twin bed, and there is a sweet cubby with another twin bed. The bathroom is finished with Mexican tile work and has a tub and a shower. There is a large shady porch for dining in the summer, and a fenced courtyard for privacy.
All this, and only a short walk to great restaurants and galleries. Leave the car parked and stroll around the quiet neighborhood, or to the Taos Plaza for the Farmer's Market and live music.
The Taos Ale House and the very popular Michael's Kitchen are only a block away. This is a new listing so there are only a few reviews, but to see the larger side and it's reviews please go to VRBO #296467. For a large group of up to nine people the entire house can be rented.
Please take note, this house has a unique architecture which includes steps and low doorways in a couple of areas. There is signage to warn of this, but tall people must use caution.

Tremendous Taos

This is an old rustic home that speaks to a bygone era. A good location in town and in a nice neighborhood. Not a bad walk to a classic small town shopping area with a variety of shops ranging from mountain gear to local artists. If one is staying for more than a few days you will run out of clean dishes and silverware fairly quickly as the supply is limited. The owner/manager was quick to respond to messages, which was nice. They were very helpful at recommendations for local activities. This is a cozy place to stay located in a time capsule.

perfect original adobe in Taos

Great little house with a genuine Taos vibe! Conveniently located and even though it looks as if it may have been a larger house split into 2 rentals, it is very private. The living area was very large. Extremely easy check-in, we had no communication with owners while we were there as we didn't need anything. I would definitely stay here again.

Within walking distance to town

Property close to town in a quiet neighborhood. Well kept. TV really only provides streaming, no actual local TV and the controls were broken. Local park nice to walk in cause the construction projects in the town made driving quite the circus. Nice getaway but until the local construction is complete (we were told sometime 2025) we will no doubt wait to return.

We came in for a concert at Kit Carson Park. The house was perfect for the 3 of us. It was a great location that allowed us to walk, not only to our concert, but shops, restaurants and bars. It was very quiet and we felt safe at night even with all the windows open.

Peaceful Long Weekend Retreat

Fantasic long weekend getaway for our family. The home was quite spacious and offered plenty of space for our teen boys to kick back and lounge. Additionally, the two small yard spaces were great to hang out and allowed our pup to run around. The property was quiet and safe and we didn't experience any problems. We walked to restaurants, shops, and a nearby park. Great location for R&R! Bonus: Amazing hot water in the shower which was perfect after a long day skiing. We would stay here again.

Cozy, comfy gem!

This was a true find! We were looking to get away with our eight year old and found this place on Vrbo. The pictures drew us in with their charm and real life didn’t disappoint. Plenty of room for all three of us, warm, cozy and close to town. The little twin alcove with the curtains enchanted our daughter and she spent much time curled up there. Kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed. Laura was kind and attentive! A really lovely place to stay - we will be back!

This little spot is just terrific. Really cozy on the rainy nights we had. Large living room. Which is always nice. Just a quick reminder, there is just one bathroom.
