We had a wonderful stay and thoroughlyenjoyed the cabin. The large windows, porch, and decor were fantastic and made us feel welcome and right at home all week!The only slight change we would have made was, with only one double bed and 2 couples staying, we did have to flip for who got the big bed! But, it was minor inconvenience to an otherwise wonderful stay! It truly is a wonderful place! We would love to stay again, if we are ever back in the area.

Great place. Neat little cabin in a beautiful and secluded spot (at the end of the road) but the highway and Taos easily accessed. Brooke was great; had a little glitch with the entry keypad, called Brooke and she got back to us in just a couple of minutes to get it worked out. Was completely as described. Would recommend and would go back.

We had a relaxing and comfortable stay for the Thanksgiving holiday. Host provided clear instructions and cabin had all the comforts of home in a beautiful outdoor setting. If we are fortunate enough to visit Taos again, we will definitely be booking this cabin again!

Stay at Pot Creek

Booked this property and it was a prime location for everything, close to the mountains and rivers and at the same time only a few miles to town and great eating places. The host was quick to respond to questions.
