★★★★★ Casa Dos Burros- Fireplace, Hot Tub, Ski, Hike, 🏔 Views, 🐶Dog Friendly

Looking for a fun and spacious vacation home for your next family or group getaway? Look no further! Escape to the serene beauty of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range in our 3+ bedroom vacation home, located midway between Taos and the Taos Ski Valley, offering the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. Enjoy a variety of amenities including a hot tub, backyard, deck, grill, ping pong, large Connect 4, foosball tables, and balconies with stunning views that will make your stay unforgettable.

🐶 Welcome | Hot Tub | 2500 sq ft

Nestled among pinion, juniper, and ponderosa pines, our hand-crafted, custom-built, non-smoking home is designed to maximize the breathtaking views. The modern home boasts coved plaster ceilings, log vigas, and a traditional northern New Mexico colonial-style pitched roof. It’s many windows provide ample natural light and frame the mountain views, while the southern exposure helps keep the house warm and bright all winter. Take in the views from the expansive covered porch or one of the two private upper balconies or relax on the large south-facing deck.

Guests have keyless entry for convenient access to the property. Security cameras are installed and pointed towards the driveway for safety and added peace of mind.

Inside, the four bedrooms include a master bedroom downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs, both with large private balconies featuring southern views of the Truchas mountain range, one with a view of Taos Ski Valley mountain. The living room boasts a large fireplace, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the warmth of a roaring fire. The kitchen is fully equipped for all your cooking needs, featuring a Jenn-Air range and beautiful local handmade tile countertops that adds a unique touch of elegance to the space. Casa Dos Burros is equipped with radiant floor heating, controlled easily by wall-mounted Nest thermostats, ensuring a comfortable stay.

Soothe your sore muscles after a long day on the slopes or trails by relaxing in the outdoor hot tub. In the winter, the property is often blanketed with snow, providing a perfect place for kids to enjoy sledding on the slope near the driveway. In the summer, bring your mountain bike and explore the trails that can be reached directly from the house.

Enjoy easy access to a variety of activities with our vacation home's convenient location. Whether you're looking to hit the slopes at Taos Ski Valley or explore the charming Taos Plaza, both are only a 25-minute drive away. The 1.5 million-acre Carson National Forest is just minutes away, offering skiing, mountain views, prehistoric ruins, ice caves, lava flows, and some of the best hiking and biking trails in New Mexico.

NOTE: Please note that our vacation home is accessed via a 1.8-mile county-maintained dirt road (Gallina Canyon Road). In certain conditions such as snow, a 4-wheel drive vehicle is recommended. The road is regularly plowed and sanded during snow events and is graded multiple times a year to ensure accessibility for residents and guests.

The entire home is yours to enjoy with ample parking.

Great stay near Taos
We stayed at Casa Dos Burros for a ski trip to Taos Ski Valley. It had plenty of beds for a larger group and plenty of bathrooms to accommodate. The basement area was larger than I expected, which was great for containing the dogs we brought with. Juan was very responsive and answered all of my questions thoroughly. I would highly recommend for a group trip to the area.

Can't wait to go back!
We fell in love with the NM mountains and can't wait to go back! Juan's house was just what we needed, off the beaten path and quiet. There were 6 of us 16 - 60 years old and we had plenty of room. The kitchen is well equipped with two crockpots, griddle, two coffee pots (one keurig style), toaster over......we also used the outdoor grill! We definitely ventured out to eat and high recommend Abes, Taos Cow, Guadalajara Cafe, Michael's Kitchen, La Cueva Cafe and taos Brewing ! So much to do in the area we did Red River horseback riding and Los Rios white water rafting! This was a fantastic vacation and have already recommended Juan's house to a couple friends! Can't go wrong if you stay here!

We stayed for a week with a mix of skiing and local sightseeing. The location is perfect for both Taos ski valley and Taos village with the house itself hugely comfortable, spotlessly clean and with excellent support from Ioan. We’d love to come back!

Family ski holiday
Stayed here after a week in Pagosa Springs with my wife, three grown children, theirs spouses and five grandchildren. Four baths on three levels made this much easier. Great sunset views across the valley. Lovely meals together around big table with family game night afterwards. Cell phone service was weak but internet service was adequate for my children to keep work responsibilities covered.

Perfect for a family getaway
My 3 teenage sons and I spent a week here and it was wonderful. The deck off the kitchen had amazing views of the Taos valley, we felt like we were in our own private sanctuary. We came during Covid, so we barely left the property, but the teens were happy to play ping pong, get in the well maintained hot tub or build a fire in the fire pit. Our dog loved it as well. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and had many extras like spices. It was just the 4 of us, so there was a basement room with 4 beds (not mentioned in the description) that we did not use. I am not sure if that area to be rented separately someday, as it seems to be under renovations. The master is quiet nice, as are the two rooms upstairs. As a bonus, we hiked down into the ravine behind the house and found it let between the other homes for miles. It was our own private trail, which during COVID was what we wanted. We will definitely be back.

Incredible Mountain View’s!!!!
The cabin was even better and bigger in person than what the pictures online showed. There are also 2 washing machines so you can do laundry quickly. The mountain views from the cabin are amazing and can be seen from multiple areas of the cabin. Juan was very responsive to any questions I had during our stay and was a great host. Please note that if you are coming to stay at the cabin during the winter then you will need to have an all-wheel drive vehicle. We had one so no problems. If you are looking for a spacious, clean, well equipped cabin to relax and see beautiful mountain view’s then this is the place for you!

Beautiful and peaceful
Juan’s place was perfect. We visited Taos ski valley, Red River, and Taos all while looking forward to relaxing at Juan’s home afterward. The location is peaceful and secluded while convenient to the entire area. The space is very comfortable with a full kitchen/grill and incredible views from just about every window!

Peaceful location, beautiful property.
Lovely, warm, well-cared for home with exceptional views. Quiet and easy access to nearby Taos, ski valley and restaurants/coffee shops in Arroyo Seco (a 7-minute drive). House has a fireplace, hot tub, playroom, kitchen with full amenities, large deck (with views of mountains to the south) and a large open area for kids. 20 minutes of walking to Carson National Forest and mountain trails in all directions. We brought our son and a friend along. They had a great time and look forward to returning soon. So do we.
