Why the Owner Chose Taos
Taos is a fabulous small town with a wonderful community of artists and creative people. Parades are constant for any occasion, and there is always a lot going on in town. The in-town location allows for easy access to the many fiestas, plays, movies, music or art shows going on at any given time. I enjoy going to restaurants as well and there are so many great restaurants within either walking distance or within a short drive. I also give a creative painting workshop in Taos in June within walking distance to my Casita.

Owner's Map of Taos
I rented my Casita for three years until it became available for purchase in 2005. At that point I immediately bought it, repainted the place, recovered the couches, put down a new floor and added my paintings and personal touches. I love the garden and putting out flowers in the pots for the summer. I am always looking for ways to improve the property and this summer, I am tiling the wonderful porch where I, personally, spend a lot of time when I am visiting my own place. I hope that you, the visitor, will enjoy my Casita as much as I have over the years.
