As perfect as it possibly could be

I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed the house on this trip. Sola is amazing and welcoming. It's really so very nice to meet genuine people like her. The house has everything and is perfectly convenient to everything locally, yet still completely quiet.

Relaxing and Peaceful

Sola was great with communication ahead of our stay. She was very accommodating to some last minute changes. During our stay, she made some great recommendations for places to visit with the kids too.. The property itself was just beautiful! We enjoyed the hammocks, hot tub and the beautiful view of the garden. Inside, the house had everything we needed. We had plenty of space to spread out, cook, and enjoy family meals. We had this long weekend getaway with the intention of relaxing and we definitely accomplished that.

Great House With Amazing Views

House was clean and welcoming. Loved both inside and outside of the house. Sola was great to work with, and I had to contact her twice with questions, and was more than willing to help us. We will definitely be staying here again.

Absolutely beautiful home!

First time to Taos. Took a trip with my son to do hiking and rafting. This home is beautiful. The pictures do not do it justice. So many beautiful details. Amazing views and backyard. Very comfortable beds and Sola and Ange were so responsive to all our needs. Sola sent information about fires and where to hike. She went above and beyond. I will DEFINITELY be staying here again.!!

Quiet home for quick getaway

My husband and I were looking for a home near Taos for a short vacation. This house looked perfect and we're so glad we chose it. Sola and her daughter take great care of the home and the hot tub out back was perfect. Our only recommendation would be that it would be a nice addition to add some more shade in the back yard - like an umbrella or pergola. That way the back yard can be used during the heat of the day as well. It's such a lovely yard to enjoy. Thank you for a great stay.

Perfect Taos Getaway

Our family of four loved everything about this property. It felt unique to area, full of personality, tons of space throughout, and beautiful views of the mountains. The hot tub in the back yard was also an evening favorite. Sola, the owner, was easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed. Cannot recommend this property highly enough.

Nice quiet retreat outside of Taos

We had a weekend family retreat at this property. It was in an outlying area outside town, well-kept and quiet, but still quite close to Taos. The owner and property manager, Sola, lives next door and she was very nice and helpful. A couple things I wished for in the kitchen were a microwave and a pop-up toaster (there was a toaster oven), but aside from that the house was well-equipped and had a nice cozy fireplace for chilly nights. One thing to note about the management company that handles bookings for this property is that they allow no refunds for any money paid, so be very certain of your plans before booking.

Perfect For A Taos Ski Trip

We just got back from a wonderful ski trip in Taos. Sola's home is in a great location. Just a couple minutes to the town of Taos and less than 25 minutes to Taos Ski Valley. The adobe style home has a ton of character and we took full advantage of the Kiva fireplace and hot tub each night. We had two couples staying there and we had plenty of space. There's a third bedroom if you have more in your party. We received over a foot of snow one night and the walkways and road was plowed by morning, which was great because we were heading up the mountain to go skiing. It's far enough from town that you get a great view of the stars in the night sky while soaking in the hot tub. We'll definitely stay here again when we plan our next ski trip to Taos.
