This house could not be more wonderful and charming. You come up a beautiful winding road heading north towards Arroyo Seco, passing humble abodes and million dollar properties and an old spanish cemetery decorated with lights and flowers. It is straight out of the painting of northern New Mexico. As you turn down the entrance, the view is stunning and the humble driveway hides charming Adobe with a huge empty field for a clear view of the Taos Mountains. The house is super cute with large bedrooms and a nice den that the kids loved. The kitchen is well equipped and the laundry room and storage are a big help for spring break. Our hosts where consistently checking in during the snow storm and could not have been more accommodating. I would totally recommend this house!
Great experience
We had the best time at this place. It is located in between the ski valley and Taos in a quiet area with great star views. The kitchen was great for cooking and we had many a good card game on the dining table. Slept four comfortably and our brother-in-law has a nice snooze on the futon. I loved having the office area to catch up on some work, and the wifi worked great. We watched movies using the surround sound system and it was quite the viewing experience. I could not recommend this place more for a family or a group of dedicated snowboarders. We enjoyed our morning walks over to Arroyo Seco to get some delicious sandwiches and burritos at the Taos Cow. Finally, Richard was an awesome host: communicative and friendly and worked with us on a couple of specific requests. This place has everything you will need for a trip to the Sangre de Cristo mountains!
The house was fantastic for our family of 4! Clean, well taken care of and great location! Only 15-20 minutes to Taos Ski Valley and 20 minutes to Taos town center! Richard was incredibly responsive and helpful when we had a small issue! Highly recommend this property!
Very comfortable, well-designed house. Great for our family of 5 (2 adults, 3 children), clean, had everything you need, quiet, driveway off the main road, and great sky views at night! Taos ski valley only a 15 minute drive from house. Would highly recommend.
beautiful property that had everything we needed for our family of 5. easy access to Taos Ski Valley or going to grab food in Taos. The decor & kiva really gave it a homey feel & the whole family enjoyed hanging out at the house at the end of a ski day. Richard & Anne went the extra step to provide us with a Christmas tree for the holidays & also warned us of an upcoming winter storm. Couldn’t ask for anything more in a rental & looking forward to returning.
This house was fantastic - it is a nice layout for a family with beautiful views. It is just a short walk to Arroyo Seco, but you feel like you are in a remote location because it is surrounded by large undeveloped lots with mountain views just beyond. Richard and Anne are very good communicators and they give you a well stocked house. Simple supplies like paper towels, laundry detergent, and sandwich bags are provided and make it that much easier to just enjoy and leave daily household chores behind. The kitchen is fully stocked - even a cappuccino machine, but you can also run to the Taos cow about 2 minutes drive/8 min walk away for coffee/breakfast/great green chili stew if you want to not do anything. To note - screen shot the directions to the house as cell coverage drops low when you enter the town - and while it is not far from town, the tiny roads can get confusing for navigation systems. The directions in their email they send are excellent and the wifi makes up the difference when you get there. We highly recommend.
Pros: Between Taos and ski valley. Nice house. Cons: Very muddy driveway past couple of mobile homes.
My husband and I and our two kids, 10 and 8, stayed in this lovely home for a week during Spring Break. The home is extremely well stocked with various coffee/espresso makers, cast-iron pans, any kitchen item or accessory you could think of, and tons of spices. The location is superb if you are skiing or want to be close to Taos. Arroyo Seco is a very charming and quirky town with unique shops and great restaurants! Also, the views are amazing! We will definitely rent here again!
Clean and cozy home in a great location between Taos and Taos Ski Valley. Easy commute. Home is warm, inviting, with great views, and has EVERYTHING you could need for your stay! Owners, Richard and Anne are so helpful, kind, and responsive to any questions you may have.
