Location: Taos, New Mexico, USA (2 1/2 block walk to the Plaza in the Center of Taos) View Map
Accommodations: House, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 4-6)
Sleeping will be great, we just replaced both our queen size beds
and they are comfy. No worries with beds in THIS vrbo home.
This home has two master bedrooms, each with a full bathroom. It is laid out perfectly for two couples or any guests who each have their own space and it works well for a family too because of the third queen bed/couch.
Just a 3 block walk to shop and enjoy the Plaza or an easy drive to Taos Ski Valley, Arroyo Seco or Santa Fe. Since the home is authentic adobe and has passive solar heat with windows to the south, it is warm and sunny in the daytime and comfortable and warm at night. The fireplace in the living room adds the perfect touch during the winter and the adobe keeps it cool in summer.
We have paid particular attention to the details that will make you feel right at home. This is no stripped down rental house, but a sweet home with lots of little extras like flannel sheets in winter and goose down comforters keep you cozy.
During the warm months the courtyard is shady and cool for summer dinners, and it's very private.
Our goal is for you to return year after year and stay with us. We hope you will feel as though this is your "very own" vacation home.
Located just 2 1/2 blocks to the Plaza an easy walk to nearby Bent Street to visit art galleries, great shopping, or just browse around this historic town. There is something going on all year long in Taos.
We often have adult students stay at our house because of the close proximity to cooking classes, art classes and writing classes held nearby. Ski Familys love that some folks stay in town while the rest go ski and everyone is happy. We have many repeat rentals.
We allow pets* However.....this is a NON-SMOKING home.
HINT: If you have a dog staying with us, help to save your deposit by vacuuming up dog fur before you leave and washing throw rugs, saving work for Pam.

Why the Owner Chose Taos
We chose this casita as a get away just 5 hours from our home. Now that we have both retired...
there is not so much to get-away from
The Unique Benefits at this House
A cozy, comfortable home, with an adobe wall in the living room. A courtyard that is functional and private. Close proximity to stores and shopping but you feel removed and tucked away.
Owner's Map of Taos
I am a native of Colorado and Randy was raised in the Chicago area. We found one another a little later in our lives and share a love for the southwest. Randy is an Architect and I love to decorate.... this home is a manifestation of all we love.
Its not polished or fancy, its comfortable and funky..
