Historic Home of Taos Artist -Peak Season Dates Available! Best Location
STVR permit# STR 2018-00012
There are many houses in Taos for visitors to choose from, but this one stands out for its authenticity and charm. Built by men from the Taos Pueblo in the 1940's for the artist Charles H. Reynolds and his wife Ruth, it is unique and very lovely. The home is furnished with many of the original antiques, and the walls are hung with paintings by Reynolds and many of his contemporaries. You will feel as if you have stepped back in time, surrounded by thick adobe walls and hand carved beams in the ceilings. The fireplace crackles with pinion wood fires in the winter, scenting the air with its fragrance. Modern amenities include a high efficiency heater, high speed internet, comfortable beds, and a well equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and microwave oven. There is a washer and dryer and supplies available for your convenience. One bedroom has a queen bed, the small sunroom has a twin bed, and there is a sweet cubby with another twin bed. The bathroom is finished with Mexican tile work and has a tub and a shower. There is a large shady porch for dining in the summer, and a fenced courtyard for privacy. All this, and only a short walk to great restaurants and galleries. Leave the car parked and stroll around the quiet neighborhood, or to the Taos Plaza for the Farmer's Market and live music. The Taos Ale House and the very popular Michael's Kitchen are only a block away. This is a new listing so there are only a few reviews, but to see the larger side and it's reviews please go to VRBO #296467. For a large group of up to nine people the entire house can be rented. Please take note, this house has a unique architecture which includes steps and low doorways in a couple of areas. There is signage to warn of this, but tall people must use caution.

Great communication with property manager. House is spacious. These old towels Holmes can be quirky as they’re added onto over the years. I personally think it gives a charm. Would highly recommend for a family with one or two kids. The one bathroom could make it challenging for anymore.
This is our third year staying here. This year we had the entire house. WE LOVE THIS PLACE!!! The house has such a great vibe! Close to all the galleries and restaurants. We enjoy hanging out at the house in the evening. Thank you so much Laura!!
The house itself was a lovely example of what we expect in Taos, complete with a history and filled with local art. Location allows walking access to many of our favorite places in Taos.
Lovely, well-equipped cottage in quiet location but walking distance to many restaurants and activities. Beautiful courtyard for relaxing in between. Wonderful!
Loved all the antique furniture. The lilac bush in front courtyard was beautiful. Great location you could walk to plaza if you want. A nice home away from home.
House was very well taken care of, clean and even cuter than in the pictures. The hosts have thought of everything! Easy walking distance to kit carson park and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again!
We very much enjoyed this historic Taos home for a 3 day stay. Walking distance to Bent Street and Plaza/short. The history of the house built in 1945 and its original owner artist Charles Reynolds was very interesting and we enjoyed seeing his artwork in the house. Perfect for 2 people!
Unique and comfortable historic adobe home. More space than we imagined and two great secure outdoor areas for our dog. Easy walk to town for shops and restaurants. Quiet and safe.
The property is accurately portrayed in description. Very comfortable & easy to enjoy. The host, Laura, is exceptionally responsive to any inquiry made which was much appreciated.
Great little house with a genuine Taos vibe!
Conveniently located and even though it looks as if it may have been a larger house split into 2 rentals, it is very private. The living area was very large.
Extremely easy check-in, we had no communication with owners while we were there as we didn't need anything.
I would definitely stay here again.
We came in for a concert at Kit Carson Park. The house was perfect for the 3 of us. It was a great location that allowed us to walk, not only to our concert, but shops, restaurants and bars. It was very quiet and we felt safe at night even with all the windows open.
My mother & sister & i had a wonderful time, as always! This was about our 4th time staying at Laura's hacienda & it was great! The hacienda suits the 3 of us perfectly & is always clean, cozy & comfortable! We met Laura this time & just adore her! WeWe met Laurathis time & immediately liked her! Such a sweet gal! We come to Taos ever 6 mos. & plan on staying here ever time!
This was the perfect Taos experience we were looking for. Not shiny new but steeped in history. Cozy. Comfortable. Loved all the artwork and the feeling this was an actual home. Everything as expected. Perhaps
Easy access to historic downtown and isolated from the later day commercial traffic on the south side of town. Very comfortable home with a private courtyard and patio in a quiet neighborhood. A person with mobility issues might have issues with the access to the bathroom.
Fantasic long weekend getaway for our family.
The home was quite spacious and offered plenty of space for our teen boys to kick back and lounge. Additionally, the two small yard spaces were great to hang out and allowed our pup to run around. The property was quiet and safe and we didn't experience any problems. We walked to restaurants, shops, and a nearby park. Great location for R&R!
Bonus: Amazing hot water in the shower which was perfect after a long day skiing.
We would stay here again.
This is an old rustic home that speaks to a bygone era. A good location in town and in a nice neighborhood. Not a bad walk to a classic small town shopping area with a variety of shops ranging from mountain gear to local artists. If one is staying for more than a few days you will run out of clean dishes and silverware fairly quickly as the supply is limited. The owner/manager was quick to respond to messages, which was nice. They were very helpful at recommendations for local activities. This is a cozy place to stay located in a time capsule.
