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!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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 .

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!!

Great place “off the beaten path”

Great location, quiet and close to the ski valley and town. Home is equipped with all the necessities for a nice stay. The beds and bedding are very good quality and very comfortable. The layout of the home works well for 6 ppl with plenty of room for everyone to have space to relax. If we come back to Taos to ski we will stay here again. Warm and cozy. If bringing food to cook don't forget oil or butter. lol

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!

The house is nicely furnished and has great sunset and sunrise views. However, it was not clean. When I brought this to the owner's attention, she was dismissive and then became hostile and said I left too much hair in the shower and my long black hair was everywhere. Apparently, I was also expected to clean before I left.The biggest issues I had were: 1. One bathtub did not drain well. When I got the water to temperature, I went to let the water in the tub drain before starting the shower and found blobs of shampoo/conditioner floating in the water. I ended up buying supplies and getting the tub to drain and then cleaning it. 2. A bathmat and hand towel both appeared dirty. I thought perhaps these were both just stained (the hand towel looked like it could have be stained with makeup foundation) but I tried washing them anyway, and they came out white and clean. 3. I had to vacuum the floor in all the areas we were (we didn't use the game room or the upstairs bedroom) and the couch, which had pet hair and crumbs (owner refuses to acknowledge despite pictures). I had a few other concerns, but these were the main ones. I would say that if you rent here and have issues, don't expect support from the owner, who went looking for issues with me once I raised mine. She says she walked the house before we checked in and none of these were problems, so I'm wrong. I've stayed in vrbos with issues and still given 4-5 stars depending on owner responsiveness, but cannot here.
