Great place!

This is a great place to relax and spend a few days enjoying the views of the mountains. Very convenient location close to Taos Ski Valley. My family and I really loved all the interiors and each room of this cabin, Tom was an amazing host and he was always ahead offering any help that would need. We will definitely plan to come back next year. We didn’t have any issue with the address; Google maps took us there without any trouble. Thanks Tom!

Amazing way to ring in the new year!

We had an unforgettable NY eve / vacation at Taos! Communication was excellent, check in/out process was smooth. We had everything we needed, from extra towels, well stocked kitchen, and the wide range of teas were such a nice surprise! Jacuzzi was so needed after 2 full days of skiing. Thank you. We had such a great time!

Mountain Get-away

My family of 4 (2 adult children) and older brother and Sis-in-law stayed together. The kitchen was well stocked, there was beautiful views from the upstairs. At night I went outside on the upstairs deck and the stars were incredible. Since it was winter, we did not use any of the outdoor spaces, the hot tub, grill or the outdoor shower, but I can see how that would be really nice in the summer. Tom left easy instructions on how to run the electronics, extra heaters if needed and Wi-Fi. Check out was easy.

Great place to get away!

We LOVED our stay in this home's relaxing locale, a large, peaceful, secluded, wooded tract with a variety of WONDERFUL OUTDOOR SPACES! We hardly saw the neighboring homes, for us a big plus. It's a bit further out than some options we considered, but that provides darkness for some GREAT STARGAZING! Two chimineas (with lots of firewood) and a hot tub warmed us while enjoying the cosmos. We liked the unique indoor layout. Each of us found a bedroom that suited our tastes, and the rooms were separated enough to give quiet privacy for a great night's sleep. A favorite space was the upper living area. Nothing is more comfy and cozy than sitting toasty warm on one of the sofas up there. Tom is A GREAT HOST. He's friendly and easy to communicate with, and immediately responsive to every inquiry, both before and during the stay. If I changed anything, it would be updating the main bathroom, but I must concede it would be a big undertaking, since it would be nice to preserve the unique decorative tile, making for a complex renovation. Future guests: I suggest writing down access and wifi details beforehand. We had spotty cell service when we first arrived, and briefly thought we'd have to drive back to town to retrieve the info. We finally got enough signal to get what we needed, and once logged into wifi, all was well. All in all, this rental was a great match for our family of four, and it will be NUMBER ONE on our list for any future travel to the Taos area!

Great cozy house in a good location

Very cool little house with fun amenities in a good location relative to Taos Ski Valley and Taos itself. Updated kitchen was great and well stocked. Hot tub was fun and in good condition. One of the bedrooms is not super well insulated but the provided space heater kept it warm enough. Might be tricky to get up to the house without AWD/4WD in snowy conditions. Hosts were very responsive and welcoming.
