Mountain View/Southwest Elegance
We had views of the mountains surrounding Taos out of every window. The most spectacular views out of kitchen and living room with a balcony view out of one bedroom, too. The owner has lovingly designed and put together a spectacular work of art inside of this home. We enjoyed a balcony out of the door where the outdoor stairs led to entry. The ground entry to the left as you look at the home shares a foyer and our quarters were through the door on the right. We did not use this room much but it had a beautiful view out to the courtyard in back and some workout equipment. The rest of the quarters were up the stairs that were to the left after entering. Jesse was very responsive when we could not get the TV to come on. It was just batteries needed for the remote and she was on top of it and had it working quickly. Visiting with her I learned that she designed this wonderful southwest interior and she share some of the fun secrets that some of the wall art held. The weather cooperated and gave us the week that Taos dreams are made of, even 2 snowfalls that quickly disappeared as the day warmed. However, my daughter enjoyed a great snowboarding day at Taos Ski Valley. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and pots etc. to enable you to have meals well prepared. Each day you will wake to discover new items in the decor that delight and inspire you. The painted walls are in themselves works of art! I could speak volumes but IYKYK. It has TAOS Spirit!

Artistic property in El Prado
The unique details of this property are amazing. Great NM vibe - carvings, paintings, artwork. Kitchen had everything we needed; just don’t buy anything large to freeze. Nice, small outside balcony with a view. This property is upstairs which requires climbing a dozen or so steps. On the downside, the TV reception was terrible and we couldn’t figure out how to stream (it was a Dish). Even changing the channels was difficult. We appreciated the owner letting our dog roam around in the large backyard, although she wasn’t fond of the back stairs (slippery for her paws.) One disturbing visual was an old paint can and some construction debris clearly visible from the balcony and one of the bedrooms. Maybe it’s OK in an unincorporated area to just have a “pile” but it’s pretty unsightly.

The most Taos house I've ever stayed in
This is my 3rd time to Taos and this house is a Taos as it gets! The decor and art is AMAZING!! We loved everything about it! My only recommendation would be to get a softer mattress and thicker pillows in the Iris room (the pillows are pretty flat). There is only 1 shower but other then that this house is to die for!!

Pictures Don't Do Justice!
Amazingly decorated home. Every detail is so unique and you notice things every time you look somewhere. The pictures don't do it justice, much more beautiful in person. Pros - Nice location with being close to town, yet pretty private. Most well equipped VRBO I have stayed in, wonderful layout and plenty of space. Views were amazing! Great communication. Cons - the dirt road about took the suspension out of the rental car...very, very rough. Only one shower and terribly small. Lighting in the bedrooms & bath was not the best. We did have an issue with flies in one of the bedrooms and it was pretty late on arrival day. Called the manager and they took care of it the next day when we returned to the home. Downfall was we couldn't use that bedroom the first night and someone had to sleep on the couch. Frustrating when you pay for bedrooms. But it didn't look like the home was freshened up prior to our arrival as it was dusty, old coffee grounds in the coffee pot, dead and live flies in bedroom and we did have to request more toilet paper as well. What was there was not stocked. If it was inspected prior to arrival, I don't know that any of those things would have been. All in all it was a great place and we would stay again.

Quirky gem with plenty of space
We loved our stay at this interesting spacious and comfortable home. It had fabulous views, being on the second floor. large kitchen and very comfy living room. Loved the antique ceiling fan and stove. The property is on a dead end dirt road. negatives: The main bathroom has a bathtub but no shower. The shower in the second bathroom is a bit small. positives: a wonderful central hangout. Huge closets. Washer and dryer (but no detergent). Mostly we really liked this place.

Unique artistic home near Taos
We loved our stay at this unique artistic home. Beautiful Mountain Views and comfortable living space with plenty of cool art and design to keep you entertained. Conveniently located close to Taos in a rural setting on 1.5 acre lot. We enjoyed walking on the paths right outside of the place. Quit looking and just book it. You won’t be disappointed.

Art filled home
This house is so filled with art and antiques the listing pics don't capture all the beautiful details. The location is a quiet area close to but outside of Taos. Not really walkable to town. Every thing needed to prepare meals is in the kitchen. Bring coffee and laundry soap.
