We had a wonderful time in your home. When it snowed the Friday after Thanksgiving the view was like looking at a postcard. We look forward to staying again the next time we are in Taos.
Very beautiful location, all amenities provided, charming home
The house was very clean and well organized. Everything was labeled which made finding things very simple. The instruction sheets made the electronics easy to use too. The photos made it appear that the house was further off the beaten path than it really is. It sits alongside a fairly busy street making the elevated patio feel like you’re on display.
Return visit to Eastern Star, always love it. Very relaxing, close to town, perfect layout for a family gathering. Definitely will come again
We stayed at this lovely home while attending Michael Hearne’s Big Barn Dance. The owners have thought of every detail in making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The home is beautifully furnished and is located close enough to Taos to be there in 10 minutes but far away enough to see the stars at night! The Mountain View was beautiful from everywhere in the house. Highly recommend staying here!
It was a great set up for two couples and another adult. Great living/dining area. We cooked in two nights and it was well equipped with everything we needed in the kitchen and otherwise.The decor was beautiful as well, and especially appreciated the Peruvian artifacts (one of our family is Peruvian). Hot tub was lovely way to come off the day. Mattresses and pillows not our preferred firmness (we go for hard beds and soft pillows) but in excellent shape.
lovely home well equipped close to Taos. Great views and great restaurants nearby
The property was more than we expected. We had a great time in the Taos area, so much to take in.
6 of us, ranging in ages from 75+ to 19 years, stayed for 3 nights. We loved the property and the personal touches of the owners. Everything looked just as in the pictures and in great working order. Prior to the stay, I was concerned that the cooling system might not do the job. In reality, on some of the hottest days of the year, it worked great. Overall, cannot recommend this property enough. I would stay here again in a minute!
Way nicer than the pictures and a great place for a weekend getaway
Lovely stay . Home very clean , organized and homey .Trihn quickly responded to my question.
We had a great time! The house was beautiful. Decorated very nicely. Beautiful views of the mountains and a hot tub! Thank you! We made great memories here, plenty of room for all eight of us.
Loved the convenience of the location to town with the beautiful quiet star gazing nights. Beautiful home with a perfect setup for family to end the evening after Taos adventures from the day.
We had the best time. This is probably the best house that we have stayed at while traveling. The house is well stocked with everything in both the kitchen and bathrooms. The beds were all comfortable. Rooms were plenty spacious to not feel crammed. The living space is plenty big for 2 families to relax in. The hot tub was great to relax in after a day of skiing. The host is very responsive to questions. Check in was very easy. About a 30 minute drive to the ski valley. We would stay here again!
Beautiful home with quick access to the slopes and downtown shops. Could not have been better for our family of seven. Loved the hot tub and all this home had to offer!!
Nice place, perfect for our family time together
Great house with great views. Very thoughtful host and excellent communication. Perfect for two couples plus. The house was very well equipped.
This is a very beautiful adobe style home! It was clean, well organized, came with very detailed instruction on how to work everything in the home, also had a good verity of board games for a good night of family fun. Location was perfect, just outside of Taos so we were able to have a good view of the mountains.
We had a wonderful stay, the kids played lots of games and interacted a lot. Open floor plan was awesome for our group! We would love to come again!
I rented this property for a weekend with some college friends. The house is beautiful and very comfortable. We loved spending most of our time together in the open kitchen/living room/dining room area. The beds were comfortable and the three full baths were more than enough. If we visit Taos again, we'll rent this home again.
We had the pleasure of staying here for four nights! The accommodations exceeded our needs, we would love to come back! We had a few questions the first day and the host got back to us quickly to resolve our issue which were non-emergent. The home has a wonderful great room to visit and chat with our family. No need to bring games, there are plenty here! We used the back deck and observation tour to look at stars, sunsets and sunrises. The hot tub provided much needed relaxation after our hike at Ghost Ranch. There is a usable and accessible laundry room in the house! There is also a first aid and amenities cabinet where we found anything any guest might forget including earplugs (thank you!!!). We even had a few nights where we used the kitchen and ate at home. The house book is very detailed and helpful. We explored all that Taos and Santa Fe had to offer! As the host had suggested, Google is not always your friend in this part of the country so we had a few detours as we got to know the landscape and the area. Hint, If you are looking for a place to swim go to the John Dunn bridge recreation area— the view is spectacular. We also enjoyed all of our meals at The Gorge Bar and Grill and Michael’s nearby. It was a great week and one of the best homes we’ve stayed in as a family so far!
Great Stay just outside of Taos. Owner was great to work with and the house was amazing! Nice and open! The hot tub was great too!
