The 5 Star Casita is a Beautiful Secluded Property in Taos NM

The 5 Star Casita is an elegant, authentic adobe structure attached to the main house on five acres, surrounded by junipers and native grasses, nestled in Taos Canyon on the scenic Enchanted Circle drive - yet only 5 miles from historic Taos Plaza. Truly a four-season experience, with vibrant spring and summer gardens and golden autumn cottonwoods. The 5-acre property has a private trail culminating in a canyon-view bench before it joins the national forest. A rustic bridge crosses the Rio Fernando. A 1/3-acre pond reflects the landscape. Many guests are now staying longer in Taos and wish to work from "home". We have reliable internet and there is a collapsible computer desk in the Casita. The location is 18 miles to Angel Fire and 24 miles to Taos Ski Valley and is very convenient to hiking, biking, and all the shopping, dining and culture Taos has to offer. There is covered parking and garage next to the Casita entrance. Radiant and wall heated. Saltillo and Italian stone tile flooring and a large wood burning kiva in the living room. Washer/dryer, iron and ironing board are on the premises. Thick adobe walls, trees, and cross ventilation keep it naturally cool in summer.
Roku TV wireless internet. Fenced-in, private, separate dog yard (shady, sheltered and fairly escape proof for the pooch!) Towels and hair dryer provided. Navajo weaving and other art works. Coved dining area with 4 chairs in the Casita. Ceiling fan, floor fan and space heater for extra comfort.
Beautifully decorated and furnished. A well-designed floor plan.
The guest 5 Star Casita can sleep 4 with a king bedroom and living room which contain a full and twin sofa bed and has a bathroom with a tub/shower combo.

Beautiful surroundings, garden, pond -- picturesque, relaxing, & serene. Cozy, tastefully decorated casita with good lighting & ample space for two people. Exceptionally courteous & helpful owners next door. Well-stocked, generous kitchen with pancake mix, spices, tupperware, utensils, pots, pans, tin foil, bakeware, chopping board, knife block. No A/C; thus warm on hot days, but cools down nicely in the evenings with open windows. No dishwasher, but washer, dryer, & detergent available in main garage. Drinkable well water. Shaded carport, safe neighborhood with nearby hiking trails; conveniently located on the Enchanted Circle Scenic Byway. No movie/streaming services, but local channels available. Fairly clean with the exception of dog hair on both sofas, which dip in the middle. Comfortable king mattress in bedroom; springs readily felt on both pull-out sofa beds with sagging of support wires. Bottom of inner shower curtain stained from pink mold, but plenty of towels, shampoo/conditioner, sunblock, hairdryer. Plenty of amenities: portable fan, iron & ironing board, laundry basket, extra sheets & pillows, ceiling fan in bedroom. Spacious fenced-in dog room about 50 ft away & not visible from casita, has some overgrown weeds, but shaded & well-protected. We readily recommend this lovely casita for its relaxing & pristine property, remarkable friendly & gracious owners, helpful & responsive manager, & ten-minute drive from the main town. Thank you kindly!!

Our stay.
The casita was perfect in every way. The grounds were well manicured with beautiful flowers and a pond in the backyard was the perfect setting to relax and enjoy the cool weather. The kitchen was spotless and was well furnished with all items for cooking. The furnishings inside were well maintained and very comfortable to relax in after exploring the town. The host and hostess made us feel like family during our stay. We highly recommend this casita, and we will return. Thank you!

The actual place is better than the photos. Short drive into town Place is surrounded by trees. Nice patio to sit outside and enjoy the hummingbirds, flowers, and water feature. Great stay for a family with 2 kids, if we visit again would love to stay again. Great communication from the hosts!
