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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

Wonderful!

What a wonderful place to stay. My brother and I were in town visiting our mother and not only was this close to her, we had a wonderful road to walk each morning, a fabulous museum just a few short blocks away, and a lovely house with all the amenities to make our stay enjoyable. Melissa has thought of every detail making the home comfortable and fun for everyone. We look forward to coming back in the summer to enjoy the beautiful yard and views.

Tight, tight, tight!

This place is a gem and the property manager was helpful and responsive. Located on the north end of Taos on the sage-cover plateau, this is a great location if your interests lie in the ski valley or to points north and west of town. The property is freshly remodeled and possibly the cleanest vrbo we’ve rented. It’s well appointed and the back yard is lush and relaxing. There was thought and care in everything about the place from furnishing to the kitchen to games for entertainment.

A welcome respite from the Texas heat

We were looking for a break from the constant Texas heat so we headed to New Mexico. It was hot in Taos but we put the fans and portable air conditioners to work and it was doable. The property was clean and very quiet, and the bed and pillows were very comfy. We saw a coyote near the house the evening we arrived, and enjoyed watching the sunsets from the beautiful back yard. Don't miss Taos Cow ice cream if you visit.

Sisters Trip

House was adorable and extremely clean. Pretty much out in the country but just a very short drive to everything. The only issue as mentioned in previous reviews is that the house is listed as air conditioned but it was not. There were plenty of fans which kept us comfortable in the 85 degree weather. We had a great stay! House is very well equipped .

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.

Not exactly as advertised

The owners were responsive and many aspects of the house were great, but check-in was not until 6:30 instead of 4PM until we complained, so got in around 5:30). Owner gave excuse that VRBO was supposed to give them 24 hours between guests. Also WiFi and smart TVs are listed but since max speed is 3mbps, this is rather deceptive since no show can be streamed at that speed. This also means that your devices will not have effective WiFi either. It also listed it as air conditioned, but I didn't see the fine print that they only have 3 portable tower units which wasn't enough to keep it comfortable in July when the temperature was 88 degrees all four days we were there. The drapes are thin and don't help much when kept closed to keep the west sun out in the afternoon. I picked this house because it was away from the hubub of Taos so we could get caught up on sleep. There are no houses around, but there is a dump next door and someone was using it at 7:30AM and then ran their gas powered leaf blower to clean out the bed of the truck. We had all the windows open to keep the house cool enough to sleep, so no sleeping in that AM. The bedding, bath and laundry items were definitely 5 stars.

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.

Perfect Location

We stayed here for a quick getaway to ski and explore the Taos area. The location, house, etc was perfect for what we were looking for. House was in great shape, had a nice backyard, fun game room, open floor plan, and the bedrooms were extremely comfortable. Our host Melissa was responsive and helpful… We will definitely be back.
