Perfect Taos getaway

My family of four stayed in this property for a week. We skied, relaxed, and spent time in Taos. This home had a perfect layout for us - plenty of space, a well-appointed kitchen, a pool table, and a hot tub. The location was great - a beautiful area close to town and to the ski resort. Highly recommend!

Fabulous Holiday in Taos

This property was the perfect setting for my daughters and their spouses to celebrate Thanksgiving together. The home was beautiful and roomy, with a big enough kitchen for us to cook in, a great pool table, a new television for watching, a hot tub outside so we could watch the stars.

Spacious home in quiet location

We had three couples in this rental and all rooms were comfortable. The house has a good layout for cooking, dining and lounging. The only minor issue is that the kitchen and bathrooms are somewhat dated but fully functional.

The most perfect mountain trip

We had the most incredible time staying at your beautiful home. We enjoyed the outdoor patio, the hot tub and the pool table every evening. The beds were comfortable, we could not have enjoyed our stay anymore. We can’t wait to come back and enjoy your lovely property again. Margaret was so helpful with anything and everything that we needed. We feel so blessed to have spent the whole week in Taos

Great family ski vacation!

We brought our 3 kids (6,10,12) to ski at Taos. The house was amazing - kitchen had everything you needed, we could park our car in the garage, and the living space was big enough for everyone to spread out and relax. The hot tub is an added bonus - the view of the mountain in you are out before dark is really spectacular.

Perfect space

This home was absolutely lovely. Owner was responsive in communication. Having several separate spaces including two outdoor spaces made it easier to use with two families. Lots of openness, but enough separation for privacy. Mountain views and temperatures were wonderful. We have stayed in this area many times. This was one of our favorites. Also easy access to restaurants and hiking trails.

Perfect house for Taos!

This property is the best! Great location whether you want to ski or shop or just relax! The house is the perfect layout and fun for all with the pool table and hot tub on the patio under the stars! The house is so warm and lots of neat decor to take in and enjoy. Truly the perfect place for the overall Taos feel/enjoyment! Some of us skied and some shopped and the location is perfect for both! Would definitely stay in this gem and highly recommend! Clean, very nice, so much space to spread out and everything you need to enjoy a great vacation!

Lovely Home

This home worked great for our family of 5. It was spacious and well supplied with everything possible. Plenty of room and the pool table was a big hit with everyone. The hot tub is wonderful for those chilly New Mexico evenings! The location was great. Just far enough away from Taos to avoid the traffic and noise and close enough that we could be there in a few minutes. So many things to do in the area. We enjoyed hiking, rafting, and taking an ATV into the mountains around Red River. We checked out all 3 ski areas and loved the little town of Red River. We would definitely stay here again.
