Why the Owner Chose Taos

The mountains and quality of light found in and around Taos have become part of my soul. I love the organic feel of an adobe house. Plus I am a sucker for a view. That's why I chose my particular viewing spot. The sunsets always delight. Watching the moon rise from the portal is magic.

The Unique Benefits at this House

I am five minutes from the road that leads to the ski valley or, if you go west, to the Rio Grande Gorge. I like that I can be away from town and looking at the mountains above it but still drive to town within 10-15 minutes. Taos has so much going on, from artistic endeavors to fantastic restaurants. Good shops and museums. The Northside Spa and Tennis Club is a short drive and offers both an indoor and outdoor pool, gym equipment, a variety of classes from spinning to yoga, massage and a steam room. Visitors are welcome to use my pass. Hiking is a big draw to this area, along with the obvious skiing and cross-country opportunities. There are state and national parks and plenty of little-known walks to take. Hiking trails are rarely crowded so there is usually a sense of privacy and personal discovery.

 

Owner's Map of Taos

I am a retired journalist, writing a non-fiction book in a nearby casita. A native of Kansas City, I lived in New Mexico for 18 years. I have just returned to the Land of Enchantment after an 11-year hiatus. My mate and I are travelers, part gypsy. Most recently we spent eight weeks in New Zealand junketing about in a camper van, then four weeks traveling around Australia. We have a BMW motorcycle which we took to Alaska a couple of summers ago and the north shore of Lake Superior last year. Cooking, gardening, hiking, swimming all top my list of fun things to do, along with appreciating my partner's photography. I just sold the limousine I used for a part-time business.

    • Our stay here was wonderful and relaxing. We are hoping to visit again soon. Sally has the house well stocked, everything from enough blankets, tons of towels, fans, laundry detergent, even spices for food. All we did was buy our food, she provided everything else. The kitchen is well stocked with every utensil you will need. The house is impecably clean and every need is thought of before the need arises. The view of the moon rising over the mountains was our favorite memory. The views are breath taking. The drive to town is just a short distance, but far away enough to provide privacy. The gorge bridge is a well worth 5 minute drive. This has been the best upkept vacation home that I have visited. Only complaint is that I could not stay there longer. Loved the nightly visit from Maggie the kitten! I'm sure she loved the treats.

    • Luna Vista is an amazing house in a great location. It has very easy access to the Taos ski area road and is just a short drive to the Taos Plaza and Pueblo. Both the daytime and nighttime views are spectacular! During the day the mountains seem close enough to touch and the nighttime twinkle of Taos is at your feet. The interior views are just as stunning as the exterior ones. The house is very tastefully decorated with art, classy furniture, and beautiful linens. I really enjoy cooking even on vacation and Luna Vista has the best equipped rental kitchen I have ever cooked in...lots of spices, utensils, pots...amazing! The owner was very helpful and had great, well organized information about the house and Taos. I look forward to my next visit to Taos and my stay at Luna Vista. Highly recommend.

    • A wonderful vacation home with fantastic views of the mountains and the city. The home was exceptionally well furnished with everything one could want and special touches of fresh flowers and fruit bowl. Thoroughly enjoyed the quiet night from the hot tub and morning coffee on the patio. Will definitely be on our return list. Thanks so much for everything.

    • This is the perfect vacation home. Can you imagine...three evenings in a row we had double rainbows! Just a few miles from the center of Taos, this lovely home is surrounded by beautiful views of Taos Mountain and its surrounding ranges. The spacious rooms are well lit and comfortable with multiple gathering spots. The owner was simply fabulous, tending to our every need and answering every question. We definitely plan on retuning to this wonderful space. Highly Recommended.
