Pleasant stay in Taos
Beautiful setting, good bed. Few items were missing, so if you stay make sure to bring a hairdryer, sponge for the kitchen, and washing soap for the washing machine.

On a short washboard gravel road but beautiful home
Loved the home, very clean, beautiful architecture, nice sunsets. Not too far from town. We were concerned about no AC but while high's were around 90F the house didn't get above 77F during the day and it cooled down quickly at night. Overall enjoyed our stay. I'd book closer to town next time and make sure it's on a paved street - the bumpy ride in/out, only a few min, but it wasn't fun.

Had everything we needed
The place is really out there, and you will achieve that feeling of just getting away from it all. Just sitting out in the courtyard and looking up at the night sky is intoxicating. During the say, you'll see nothing but the few homes surrounding you far off and then the beautiful mountains just north/east of you. The house itself is a gem, both architecturally and just how it is outfitted for a visiting family. It has anything you may need during your stay to prepare meals and cookies. It has 2 decent bathrooms and the rooms are cozy with plenty of linens. In the early summer we were there (early June) it was a steady and comfortable 67-68 degrees in the house which has no AC. Just crack open a couple of windows a little, and you're good to go. The main town of Taos is just a 15 drive down the mini-mesa this neighborhood is on. There is some construction going on in the main town so be a little patient once you get down there. Cid's is a good grocery option. You will have plenty of options for Mexican food. We went to Guadalajara's 3 times due to good choices, counter service with no wait. La Cueva is a nice sit down style place and I hear great things about Orlando's. There are a few nice hikes about 20 minutes away as well as the Rio Grande bridge.

HORRIBLE! Prepare to be spied on!
WARNING! READ BEFORE CONSIDERING BOOKING! I’d give zero stars if I could. My family was uncomfortable from the moment we arrived at this home. The “private” backyard is not private at all as you can see right through all fences, and there are several neighbors very nearby. You’re also being actively watched at all times; so private it is NOT. The cameras didn’t bother us at first until we started getting messages about how we were being “observed.” While the property is managed by a company, the owner is apparently actively monitoring your every move. We had two family members over and received threatening phone calls and emails at 3PM that if those two people weren’t off the property by 6PM we would all be forced to leave. On top of that disturbing part of our short stay, the owners have pictures of themselves everywhere, including intimate kissing pictures. I can’t understand why these don’t get put away? Don’t expect to take a shower unless you’re under 5 feet tall; they’re both tiny and in rough shape. Don’t expect to do much cooking either; the cookware is totally insufficient Despite how the owner will respond to this review to save face, you should know that we are excellent renters. We’ve had so many great stays on Homeaway. The behavior of this owner was completely unwarranted, inappropriate, and quite frankly creepy. To be told that we’re being spied on and then threatened was such a shock. We immediately decided to vacate the property on our own accord as being watched and threatened unnecessarily was unbelievable. We felt violated, threatened, and scared we’d be confronted further... No way I was keeping my kids in that house. Unless you’ve always dreamed of being on Big Brother, please heed my warning. I hope the owner reads this and thinks twice before treating another guest this way. They ruined our vacation. I wouldn’t stay here again if you paid me!

Cozy adobe home
The setting was beautiful - 360 degree views of the mountains, in what felt like a remote and quiet area, yet you are only a 10-15 minute drive of Taos, and only 10 minutes to the Rio Grande gorge bridge. The home was an authentic adobe style, and was spacious yet cozy. However, a few basic amenities would have made it more comfortable. There is a laundry machine, but no laundry detergent, for example. The adobe style does retain heat, but it was still fairly cold at night, and the thermostat controls were locked, so we had to message the host to request that they manually increase temperatures. Otherwise a comfortable stay overall.

authentic adobe experience
This home provides an authentic adobe experience set in a private walled compound. Easy access to restaurants, galleries and surrounding towns and historic sites. It is extremely comfortable, clean and fully equipped. The owners have attempted to provide every possible comfort and information to ensure a meaningful visit. Be sure to visit Taos, Red Rock, Enchanted Circle and the Native American historic sites. Recommended.......

Wonderful true adobe house
The house was great. The temperature in the house remained in the low 70’s whether the temp was in the 80’s or the 50’s outside. The house was well stocked, and comfortable. The views wonderful, and secluded. Great stargazing once you got away from the front porch light and in the driveway. Sun rises and sun sets were also amazing.

Stargazing, Sunflowers and Art
We lucked into the Labor Day Artists' Open Studio Tour. If you're ever in Taos over Labor Day weekend, I highly recommend this opportunity to visit the many artists who call Taos home. And the sunflower explosion of 2022 was amazing! The house was perfect for this driving adventure with lots of space when we returned. The rooms were comfortable, clean and nicely decorated. The best part of the house was the yard/patio where we sat and drank wine and watched the stars come out following gorgeous sunsets.

Excellent stay
Great house! Perfect size for our family of 4. About a 15 minute drive from local shopping and dining. Excellent view of the mountains. We stayed during summer and the house kept cool even without AC. WiFi was a bit spotty but worked for our needs but something to keep in mind as our teenagers expressed their concerns. Dining table is a bit uncomfortable if sitting at for long periods of time like playing board games. Beds were comfortable and each room had a ceiling fan. Also, loved that each room had a standing floor fan. Kitchen had plenty of cooking essentials. If we go to Taos again we’ll definitely check to see if this house is available.

Loved the SW ambiance and adobe architecture. Very well equipped for guests. A little cool without the fireplace heat. Well stocked with wood and starter sticks near the fireplace. Owner was very helpful and resourceful with establishments nearby, restaurants, lodging etc. More rock & courtyard landscaping would be nice. Winter, so a little muddy. A hair dryer would also help. Overall a very lovely stay for two couples. Thank you
