Mountains in Your Face

Hey skiers! Taos ski valley open in this first week in April. No fool in’! A foot new snow. Come ski or just enjoy the glorious views of Taos Mountain and the Sangre de Cristo Range from Luna Vista just outside Taos.. Summer is coming on so book for this popular season of warm days and cool nights. There is lots to do in the area. Visit Taos Pueblo, eat at any number of excellent restaurants or shop around the Plaza. Or, stay home and relax in attractive Southwestern surroundings and comfort. The house, patio and hot tub all have stunning views. The kitchen is large and well-equipped. The house sleeps five, depending on family/friends preferences. Sleeping features are a bedroom with a massive king sleigh bed and another room with two queens. The sofa pulls out to a queen in the living room as well. The house is built with traditional viga (beam) ceilings and tile floors, and sports furniture built for comfort. There is original Southwestern art work on the walls and a cozy TV nook with recliners off the living room. The banquet-style dining room table is great for entertaining but the home encourages intimate get-aways as well. Keep us in mind and we hope to see you soon. Please note that the $160 per night rental fee covers two people. Additional guests are $20 per person per night.

Perfect Family Stay
My family frequents Taos and this has been one of our favorite stays! Perfect for families who want their own space. Suggest a car that is capable of off-roading for the dirt road

We really enjoyed our stay. The property was clean and functional. Centrally located between Taos and the ski area. We definitely recommend.

Enjoyed our stay
Great house, great views of mountains in the day, and Taos lights at night. Fairly easy access to most everything from here. My only whiney complaint which has nothing to do with the house are the unavoidable, numerous, randomly spaced speed bumps on the last mile of pavement to the area. If you don't pay attention, just going 25mph down to road will put your head to the roof of your vehicle. A bit overdone.

Remote review!
So I didn’t get to stay at this property- my husband and young adult son stayed here while on a short ski trip. They loved it. Husband said the house was amazing- beds comfy- clean- house even had some coffee in freezer!! Maybe I can go next year and we can get this place again! First hand, communication with the house manager, Madrona, was great! She was extremely responsive and helpful throughout my hubs and kid’s stay. Recommend 💯!

The perfect Taos house
My family loved staying in this beautiful home. Spectacular views, private, gracious and comfortable and full of books and art. Easy distance to everything we wanted to do in town. Dark skies for stargazing, windows on all sides to watch the light changing and snow falling and birds appearing everywhere after the storm. The perfect place to enjoy everything we love about spending time in Taos.

Lovely home
Home was beautiful and fully stocked with everything you could possibly need for an extended stay. It is a bit far from the center of town and with snow it was at times challenging but the kiva fireplace and hot tub made the commute over the unpaved road worth it. Thank you to Madrona for being a great caretaker and available when you need information.

Quiet and Comfy Stay
Quiet and lovely 4-day stay. The house was clean, had comfy furniture, open floor plan, and the kitchen had everything I needed. The property manager lives in a casita next door and was very accommodating and helpful. I was solo on this trip and enjoyed the stars, views of Taos Mountain out the kitchen and living room windows, and the hot tub under the car port. To access the bathroom for the master bedroom you go out to the hall. There are 8 speed bumps depending which way you go to town, but it slows traffic down. The dirt road is a dead end and you can’t really hear the main road. Thanks for your helpfulness and quick responses. I will return!

The Place to Stay
This home was absolutely beautiful. Host was super easy to get ahold of and everything was great. When I come back to Taos, this will be the place I will be staying again. Thank you for such an awesome experience.
