Great stay

We loved the house. It was very cozy. The architecture and style are consistent with the Taos atmosphere. It is in a great location, and it is a quick zip into town for groceries.

Me & my 2 sisters Niece and a friend had my birthday weekend at Ojo Caliente and needed a place to stay. I found this place for a reasonable price and good location. Saw the pictures & loved it! The home was very clean & beautiful & perfect for what we needed. The beds were very comfortable. Melissa was very prompt for returning any questions i had. I would definitely recommend this place to my family and friends. We really enjoyed our stay here for the weekend. Thank you Melissa for making our stay feel welcomed

Perfect stay

The house was warm and comfortable and the provided amenities were above and beyond what we usually find at a rental. We very much enjoyed the game room. Would highly recommend this property to any small group looking for a nice place to stay near Taos.

Vacation to Taos

Wonderful home. Great location. The house is close enough to get to town and restaurants quickly, but far enough away from hustle and bustle of town. Very clean, wonderful yard with beautiful views!

Had a nice visit

The house worked out well for us. We took my brother and wife with us who were visiting us from Ecuador. The charm of Taos was a bit off due to the road construction through town.

Very beautiful and cozy house for family out

The house is clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated. It is not far from Taos and is located in a quite place where you can enjoy magnificent sunset from the back yard and moon rise from front yard. Backyard is full of plants and you can expect lovely visitors like birds and rabbits. A very pleasant stay!

Extremely nice!!!

My granddaughters want to move in, so we left them there. They require little food and water!! Ha ha ha. We ALL loved this house. We appreciated our guest gifts... very nice and classy touch! This house was super clean and nicely decorated! Looks JUST like pics, but cozy in person. We'd return 100% and would recommend to anyone else. Made for a lively family vacation. Thank YOU!!

Wonderful stay!

Casa Turquesa was our home away from home for 11 days this July. It was beautiful and spacious, immaculately clean, and well-appointed - and organized! We particularly enjoyed the back yard under the shade structure where we spent many hours soaking up the cool Taos breeze. Melissa was wonderful to interact with, and everything about the house was thoughtful and thorough. It was an easy 10 minute drive to Arroyo Seco and then up into the Taos Ski Valley and with back roads there were great - and scenic - ways to bypass the summer traffic in the middle of town if we wanted to. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Place For Family Chill Time

We savored time with family members after our daughter's wedding. We enjoyed coffee in the backyard every morning and time by the fire pit at night.Every room is beautiful and spacious. Organization in every room, impeccable. Close the heart of town and grocery stores/shopping. LOVE this oasis. We will return.

Beautiful property; excellent stay

This property was hands down the best stay I've ever had when traveling on vacation. The home was extremely cozy and beautiful inside and out. The home had everything you could want to enjoy your stay and was very spacious for our family of 5.(Soon to be 6) There was always something to do while we were here and the kids had a blast with all of the games that were provided. Surprisingly, the property had excellent cell phone coverage and even if it didn't, the wifi was actually very fast. The heater worked very well even with the 13 degree outside temperatures. These guys are pros and I would book again with them in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for providing a home for us to stay in that will leave great memories for many years to come!

Family Christmas ski trip

The pictures online don't do this house justice! It's beyond magical, charming and just beautiful. I was beyond impressed, like a spa retreat. I wished we were staying in Taos longer.

Quiet and beautiful

Our house was perfect for our stay. A lovely backyard, two roomy living areas, a nice kitchen area and great bedrooms/bath. We were close to Taos and the ski valley but in our own quiet setting. The house was very comfortable. The owner was very responsive to any questions.

A week in Taos

The pics really didn’t do it justice and I rarely get to say that. The house was perfect as a place to explore Taos and the surrounding area. The bed was great and everything we needed was provided. A real bonus was the backyard where we watched blue birds and several other species stop by and it was a great place to enjoy sunsets.
