About this property

At the foot of the Truchas Peaks and on the high road to Taos, lies the village of Truchas. Our mountain home is located about 2 miles from the village at the end of a county road and has been in our family for 25 years. A portion of the home is adobe and was constructed in the early 1900's.
In 2000, the home was renovated and remodeled with room additions. The location is very private and quiet. There is a full kitchen, wifi, two internet tv's, washer and dryer and a bbq grill. On chilly evenings and early mornings, there is a kiva fireplace to add to the ambience of your stay. The Village was founded in the year 1754. There are many decendents of the original families who live here, farm the land, raise cattle and horses and are stewards of this land. There are also many artisans who live and work in the village. Santa Fe, Taos and Los Alamos are all approximately one hour drive from here.
Enjoy snow skiing at Sipapu, Santa Fe Ski and Taos Ski Valley, all about one and one-half hour distance. Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs is also one hour away. Relax and unwind in this peaceful setting. Breathe in the clean mountain air, see the stars at night and enjoy all of the beauty that surrounds you. Please inquire with the owner about well-behaved pets.

This house is a museum of Native American art and Antiques

Truchas is about an hour's drive away from Santa Fe, Taos and Los Alamos. So if you want to visit all 3, this is a perfect location. The house was as pictured and a perfect getaway for my husband and I. Wild life bonus: Hummingbirds at the feeder were so fun to watch. Also saw a rabbit and a tiny lizard. Great fun! Hostess was very responsive.

Truchas Mountain Home Amazed

My husband and I recently stayed for a long weekend. The house was beautifully decorated and perfectly secluded for us. While was nice to be secluded, It was also nice to be within an hour of Santa Fe, Taos, and Angel fire. Perfect location for lots of easy day trips. My favorite thing about the home was the beautiful porch. I spent hours watching the hummingbirds and smelling the roses. It was perfect to enjoy the mountain view while having my morning coffee. Victoria was very responsive and a great hostess. Would definitely stay here again.

Peaceful and gorgeous

Thank you for a wonderful stay in your beautiful vacation home. It was very peaceful, and we thoroughly enjoyed the patio, garden flowers, and hummingbirds! The beds were so comfy, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals. We were so blessed to relax there. Thank you!

Three Senior Citizens in the Mountains

The overall setting and house was amazing, but the three of us there were 75 years old. The steps, for example, to the back bedroom were not easy to negotiate. No railing on the stairs to the second floor was not great. Maybe that should be amended or stated in the description. The view was incredible, but the only thing we found open in "the village" was the post office. Maybe more details about this...we drove to Santa Fe to shop for groceries. Also, this is just my personal opinion, but I feel that Bev's personal cards and daily logs should be removed...just out of courtesy for her privacy. Loved being close to Chimayo...beautiful experience. It was, for me, an overall memorable trip. Thank you for sharing Bev's former home with us. I Googled her obituary on the way home...sounded like an incredible lady.
