In Taos, Experience the Big Sky, See Forever, Privacy Galore!

Tony and Janelle were wonderful hosts. The casita was amazing, we had a wonderful time. It was the perfect place for our little weekend get away. The views all around were breathtaking. We got to tour their earth home which was absolutely stunning. Will definitely be going back again.

We had such a nice stay, the hosts are really lovely and the casita is so cosy and lovely situated on the mesa with a great view!

I enjoyed my stay at this casita, and the hosts were very welcoming. Everything was provided that I needed. My only criticism is that I don't recall the description of the property including the fact that it is way out in the desert - 4.3 miles on a dirt road, and quite a ways from Taos. It wasn't really a problem, but I would have liked to have known. When it became obvious that men would be working near the property the entire time I was there, the host made a generous adjustment to my fee.

Great place just to sleep and head out for our daily activities. It’s a small casita with a queen bed (but felt like a double) no kitchen no air conditioner so it was hot at night although they did provide us with a fan. The coffee maker works but it’s very old so it takes a long time to brew the coffee. (Bring your own coffee) Towels were rough to dry with. And the hot tub you can use is part of the owners house so just something to keep in mind. Road to get to the casita is not paved and a little maintenance would probably help for the best. It’s about a 15-20 min drive into that unpaved road. Overall a good stay if you’re looking for a secluded quiet place.

We loved our stay! The Casita is positioned perfectly to see the sun rise over the mountain in the morning, and the sunsets are absolutely gorgeous! The mountain views are stunning. We enjoyed the walking trails. Our hosts Janelle and Tony are awesome people.

Might be my favorite short-term rental I’ve ever stayed in.I don’t know how we got so lucky! My boyfriend was working in the area (Philmont) and we needed a place to stay while I came to visit. We wanted somewhere convenient to Taos, somewhere private, and somewhere with the undeniable magical charm of northern New Mexico. This VRBO exceeded all of our expectations. Tony and Janelle were absolutely lovely hosts, the location was perfect, the room was clean, updated, and in amazing condition. Exceptional quality, especially for the very reasonable price. I do not leave reviews unless I really know that it is a perfect place. We will be back!

I can’t say enough good things about Janelle and Tony’s lovely place..it was such a perfect “home away from home” to spend my time in the Taos area. Just close enough to town for easy access, but far enough on the outskirts that it was incredibly quiet and peaceful. It was spotless, very nicely appointed, and the hosts were so welcoming, without being at all obtrusive. I’ll definitely stay again!!

The hosts were great. The room is clean and had everything you need. The views were spectacular. The hot tub is a bonus.

Janelle and Tony were absolutely the best hosts! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and cared for in every detail. Their gorgeous property was precisely what we dreamed of—thoughtfully appointed, deeply peaceful, and surrounded by the kind of natural beauty that lingers in your memory.Each night, we were awed by the cool, crisp air and the brilliance of the Milky Way stretching across the sky—it was like stepping into a painting. By day, we explored the rich history of Taos and the surrounding areas, feeling fully transported to another world.This wasn’t just a place to stay—it was an experience that nourished the soul. We left with full hearts and deep gratitude. Can’t wait to return.

This was such a wonderful place to stay. Tony and Janelle are very warm and welcoming people who make for excellent hosts. The casita is very clean and charming and the environment is so quiet and still. I could hear everything happening in the natural world, which gives the place a certain magic and gravity. It’s a great place to watch clouds develop on the horizon and the stars are brilliant at night. It’s definitely a place I hope to return.

Our hosts were extremely kind and gave us a very sweet card and a bottle of wine upon realizing this was our honeymoon spot. The area is beautiful and is 30 minutes from the heart of Taos, but feels very private and secluded. The property was beautiful and the hosts were kind and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

My partner and I spent 4 days at Janelle & Tony's lovely casita. It was very nice - clean and inviting and very secluded. They were great hosts and made our stay special. Ww will definitely be rebooking if/when we return to Taos. (hopefully next time the weather will cooperate)
