About this property

Town - Walk to Taos Plaza 1/2 block - 18 miles to Taos Ski Valley

Welcome to the true feel of 'Old Taos' in the 100 year old 'Historic' private airconditioned compound of 'Blue Elk Casa'. In the owner's words she tells us why this home may be just the one you are searching for to enjoy your valuable vacation time:

'In our mini-hacienda you are one block from the down town central plaza with all the wonderful food, art, shopping and museums you could wish for. At the same time your home base is nestled in a totally contained private home that has been hand-painted and crafted with love and which just 'feels good' to be in. We also offer to those family or friends traveling or celebrating together the choice of staying close but of having separate complete spaces when the need or desire arises. The second story unit (Blue Elk Up) has its own private entrance, private open deck, kitchenette, large living room and full bathroom with tub/shower combo. Blue Elk Down has two master bedrooms one with tub/shower combo & the other with walk in shower only. Both units have large enough living rooms for the entire group to gather for meals and visiting. This unique Up and Down separation is ideal for members needing quiet get-away time and space from the hustle and bustle of group activity. Please note these units do not have an interior flight of stairs connecting one to the other. From the downstairs patio you walk up an exterior flight of stairs to the upper unit.

In the afternoon and evening you are footsteps away from some of the locals favorite restaurants and cafe's. At 'Blue Elk Casa' you will be staying in one of the most authentic historic Taos vacation rentals offered in Taos, New Mexico. Come and experience true Southwest charm and architecture with adobe walls, viga ceilings, kiva fireplaces, bancos and nichos! Most important - you are a two minute walk from Taos Plaza and able to enjoy total and absolute privacy from neighbors or passers-by in this serene adobe walled compound.

Location was wonderful, walking distance to the historic district and a short drive to some fantastic skiing. The place was adorable, better than we expected.

Beautiful Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at the Blue Elk Casa. I worried that the up and down units would split my group up too much but the downstairs living space is large enough for everyone to hang out, which was great. And being a 1-block walk to town was wonderful.
