About this property

Taos luxury upscale private secluded gourmet kitchen mountain views upgrade

  • This home is a fabulous vacation location. It is situated on five irrigated acres in the foothills above the village of Arroyo Seco. You can walk or ride bikes to the town along a creek on a tree-lined road.
    El Salto Road is the very best location to enjoy a Taos holiday. The creeks and irrigation keep the area green and lush. The five-acre property surrounding the house has 1000 trees in Cottonwood, Willow, Austrian Pines, and Aspen. There is a small plum and apple orchard and a whole garden on site for guests to pick vegetables. We are growing lettuce, spinach, tomato, radish, carrot, potato, and basil.
    The mountain biking and cycling are world-class right out the front door. Hiking trails are phenomenal, with access to Forest Service lands just minutes away. From Taos Ski Valley (15 minutes), there are countless trails and cooler temperatures as one gains altitude. The Ski Valley offers trail riding horse stables and chairlift rides.
    Relax in an authentic Adobe home after skiing in winter or hiking any time of the year. Located just minutes from the village of Arroyo Seco and fifteen minutes from Taos Ski Valley, this comfortable, warm, and inviting residence awaits you and your family. The home was built by Taos' most successful designer/builder/developer team for their own family and enjoyment. The architecture and furnishings might be described as French Country Northern New Mexico.
    The walls are 18-inch thick adobe with viga and beam ceilings, flagstone floors covered with oriental rugs, and antique furniture throughout. The house feels good, warm, cozy, and luxurious. The furnishings and finishes have been selected with great care and comfort in mind.
    The kitchen features a stainless steel restaurant stove and oven, side by side refrigerator, a dishwasher, a compactor, and a full line of dishes and cooking utensils. There is a large central island for food preparation where the entire family can participate in making a meal.
    The sizeable primary bedroom contains a queen bed and a couch that slides out to make two twin beds. The middle and front bedrooms have queen beds and a twin bed in each.
    There is also a convertible couch for two more twin beds in the living room.
    There are two patios for use all year round.
    All the linens and towels are provided for a large group. The owners have many years of experience providing their guests with a beautiful vacation experience.

Best Taos haven!

I can't say enough nice things about our gracious host. Our multi family holiday vacay was sucked into crisis mode when we found our original booking with NO HEAT and a dangerous electrical short. We were beyond grateful to trade UP to Casasara. Host greeted our grateful crew in person and the rest was awesome. Beautiful property with lots of room and sleeping options. And the hands down favorite amenity was the amazing rainwater steam shower! If you get a chance, check it out.

Great owner, beautiful house

We had a large group (12 people) and stayed here for 4 nights over the holidays. The house is very nice, in a quiet area, and we had plenty of room for everyone. It's an easy drive to Taos Ski Valley or into the town of Taos. The owner was also great - he showed us around quickly when we arrived and was quick to respond if we had any questions or issues. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice play to stay near Taos!

Great thanksgiving stay

Rick, the owner, made this a great stay for us. Since we arrived after dark he was nice enough to meet close to the property so we could follow him to the house. He gave a great tour of the house before leaving us for the weekend. For the entirety of the stay he made sure that we had everything we needed, and it was overall a great experience. Definitely recommend checking out this property and I am hoping to come back very soon

Amazing place and hospitality!

The house is perfect! Plenty of room for us to spread out and have our own space, and the kitchen is large for gathering to cook and socialize. The grounds are a beautiful view while enjoying the hot tub. Rick is the perfect host by being available when we needed him! He helped us get our car out after the snow storm! Highly recommend!

Great Get-Away

My family and I vacationed here during the Christmas Holiday. It felt like home away from home. The house is decorated beautifully and is very comfortable. The kitchen was very accommodating and we had everything we needed to make Christmas dinner. The living area is cozy and perfect for gatherings around the fireplace. There are great views of the mountains that are visible from outside or inside the house. I would highly recommend this house for any occasion throughout the year.

Great ski base and family hone

We had a little family ski reunion and found the perfect space in Casa Sara. Plenty of space for a big group to sleep and also hang out, fully stocked kitchen, and great location between skiing and town. We were cozy and relaxed when indoors and enjoyed the outdoor experiences so much too. The owner and a helper were responsive and quick to help/make us comfortable. The pictures don’t show how big and comfortable the common spaces are; everyone enjoyed their beds too. We’d come back for sure.

Fantastic home!

Casa Sara is a beautiful home, fully furnished, and much larger than what it looked like by the pictures. Rick was very helpful and kept the home and grounds immaculate. The kitchen was fully equipped and the home was very comfortable. The location is ideal--very quiet and secluded, but close to Taos and Ski Valley. There was plenty of room for our two families-could have easily had a third family. We would definitely recommend this property. Rick even had a fire started for us on our arrival!

Casa Sara

Rick was amazing as a host. I even referenced the level of customer service he provided us on my team call at work to exemplify what customer service should look like. Would definitely recommend checking this place out. Also the pictures make the house look smaller than it actually is. The house is deceivingly large

We had a group of 12 people and everyone was comfortable and had beds. The house is really big, the picture do not do it justice as to how nice it is! Rick was as good a host as I had read in other reviews he was. We wanted to watch a pay per view on a night we were there so I emailed him. He called and got it set up for us! I can't say enough good things about our stay!!!

Fabulous Property

Our family of 6 adults and 2 young children stayed at this property (there is room for more) for a Taos ski vacation. The house is spacious with a bathroom for each of the bedrooms. High quality furnishings and with abundant extra supplies and a fully stocked, roomy kitchen, we lacked for nothing. The hot tub was clean and worked great. The owner is very friendly, attentive and helpful. This property is located on several scenic acres in Arroyo Seco Village which is located about halfway between the town of Taos and Taos Ski Village and is the closest you can be to the ski area without actually staying at the ski village. Arroyo Seco offers some quaint shops and couple of small grocery stores along with a few restaurants. Highly recommend this property.
