We always look forward to staying in this lovely Taos home. We had not been back in a few years but were delighted to find it as comfortable as ever. We will come again! Plenty of room for the four of us. Our son and daughter-in-law enjoyed the den as we took over the master bedroom. With two bathrooms we never never in each other's way.The washer and dryer allowed us to travel with less clothes. We were warm and cozy during the snowy days. We recommend this home highly. It is a great value.

It was our first time to rent this house and will not be our last. The location was very convenient to the square and down the street from a grocery store. The house was very comfortable and clean. It was very relaxing to have a house to stay in with plenty of room and lots of charm.

Enjoyed a wonderful week at this convient, reasonable home. Our old, mostly blind and deaf dog did great in the fenced back yard. The beds were comfy, and we all slept very well. TV would have been nice but we were forwarned in advance so no surprizes. We will deffinately returen.

We loved staying in this house! This was our first time renting from VRBO -- it worked out wonderfully. The house was comfortable, well stocked with linens and cooking utensils, larger than expected, and perfect for our family.

we have visited Taos every year for the past 15 years. Never have we rented a house, condo, townhome, studio, etc that did not have a working tv. The olympics were on , my wife has cancer and must stay in most of the time and no TV service. The shower head in the bathroom next to the bedroom was so bad spraying water everwhere but straight, a $10 repair. and to finish it off ONE WINE glass. Come on don't couples rent here?

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this adobe house in Taos. While being right in town, it was in a quiet neighborhood. The home itself was so roomy; we couldn’t believe how big it was, so much more so than it looked like in the pictures. Though we were only 2 people and didn’t need 2 bathrooms, I can see how a family or two couples would appreciate having the extra facilities. We ate out-- the kitchen seemed well stocked and the dining room table was big— we could have fed a group. We enjoying seeing the Franciscan Church on the south side of town as well as the Pueblo. The bridge over the gorge was good too, with lots of artisans selling their wares.

We had the great opportunity to stay in this very well stocked and convenient home about three blocks from the Plaza. We were able to stay for nearly two weeks while I attended classes and my husband toured the Taos area. Preparing meals in the spaceous kitchen was easy when the grocery store was only one block away. Coming home to such a comfortable house in the evening was a pleasure. We hope to return soon.

Two of my retired friends and I just spent 3 nights in this great adobe house in Taos, and loved our stay. So nice to have two bathrooms and lots of room for three women to "get ready" at the same time! The coffee maker and microwave were the only kitchen appliances we chose to use, because we found the Downtown Bistro the first night and loved it, so hope to return for another visit in the future.

We really enjoyed our October weekend in this cozy home away from home. The weather was rainy, but we didn't mind because the house was so comfortable and the atmosphere warm and inviting. We cooked some delicious meals in the well equipped kitchen. We highly recommmend it and we're looking forward to coming again soon.

We spent the month of August in this lovely Taos home. You can walk to the plaza, park, art galleries, restaurants and shops. Everything you need has been thoughtfully provided. The king size bed is wonderfully comfortable and the bedroom has a lovely view of the backyard through the french doors. This house is much larger than the pictures tell you, the great room is huge with a fireplace and very large dining table. There are two very nice bathrooms. You will have a peaceful vacation here and you will love the completely enclosed yard with a hammock. It is simply THE BEST !!!!

My sisters and mother stayed here for 3 days. The stay was absolutly WONDERFUL! It is like home away from home. We had all the amenities and we were close enough to the Taos plaza to walk. We loved it so much were wanting to make reservations for next year.

My Family and I have just finished Spending the entire ski season with 214 Siler as our Base Camp. The warmth of this home was a welcoming glow after each day of Skiing. We live in Albq, but It sure was nice to be able to prop our feet rather than making the commute home after sking HARD. We took full advantage of the ammenities including a Big cozy fireplace and plenty of lounging/ crash space. You will not be dissappointed with this cute HOME near the plaza!

We can't say enough about the comfort, pleasure, and style of this house. We visit Taos every year and have had varying accommodations annually, but will evermore return to this house. Taos usually brings up the tail end of our summer travels and while we enjoy eating out as we travel, it was also a pleasure to have a kitchen equipped to cook some homecooked meals. The house also allowed us ample space to invite several of our friends who live in surrounding areas to stay with us in comfort. After walking to the galleries and shops we love, taking day trips to beautiful surrounding areas, and enjoying the Taos Solar Music Festival, we returned to a clean, comfortable, and beautiful house that we enjoyed pretending was our home. Thank you and we'll be back.

Last month we spent three days in this lovely adobe. We found the accomidations very comfortable, complete with a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and even a hiking book that gave us directions to an excellent hike. It was our first time to Toas and we really enjoyed our stay.

Our recent 4 night stay in your Taos home was wonderful. The house really is much larger than is appears on-line, but very warm and cozy. Every detail is thoughtful-- the amazingly well-appointed kitchen, the beautiful tile floors, comfortable bed and great room furniture and more. Very clean. We walked often to the plaza after our daily adventures out into the truly enchanted landscape of northern New Mexico; coming home to the warmth of this home at day's end was a highlight of our trip. Thank you!

We love the house and we love Taos! The house is conveniently located close to the Taos square, which means it is a short walk to all the best galleries, restaurants, bars, studios, and attractions in town. And the george, Taos pueblo, and ski area are just a short drive away. The house has everything that a Taos house should have, which is to say it is clean, comfortable, rustic (but well appointed), and roomy.

The photos do not do the house justice! Loved the house - it is spacious, bright, comfortable, charming, centrally located, fully stocked with everything one might need for a home-away-from-home. Unfortunately, there was a glitch when the gas heater went out our first night, but we got to experience the owners' total commitment to customer service and satisfaction; they sent someone out right away and stayed in contact by long distance until the problem was fixed. In the meantime, their local handyman started a wood fire for us, kept it going, and stacked dry firewood on the porch for our convenience. Our stay was all too short, and we hated to leave. Highly recommended.

G’day and thank you! Having traveled 24 hours to get to New Mexico from Australia, we weren’t sure what to expect. What we found was absolute comfort in the perfect location in Taos. Our group of 6 felt completely comfortable and at home. The home is so close to the town square, we didn’t have to worry about driving after drinks at the Alley Cantina. Stylish, functional, fabulous location, great kitchen, the barbie outback roasts marshmallows beautifully…overall absolutely superb! We will definitely be back!

I was totally please with the ambiance of this adobe rental. It has character, unpretentious furnishings, tasteful, and we immediately felt completely at home. We were able to cook our Thanksgiving dinner with only adding a couple of additional basics. We loved the coziness of the fire place in the great room. We really appreciated how the house accommodated all of our families needs throughout our 10 day stay. Also, the central locations was greatly appreicated.

We are in love with this lovely home! My son and daughter-in-law found it in June and raved about it. In August, my sister-in-law and I enjoyed it for a week. I stayed in the bedroom in back of the house. Nancy took over a bed in the great room which is huge. A large dining table separates the great room into a living area and sleeping area very nicely. The kitchen is superb. Previous visitors left us a bottle of wine so we did the same. One bathroom has a shower and washer and dryer. Being able to do laundry was an added value. The 2nd bath allowed us both to have our own space. The house is walking distance to the Plaza, several museums and shops, and the grocery store. I am reserving it for next summer. I feel I have found my very own special Taos house. Don't miss this house which must be the best value in Taos.

This was one of the finest vacation homes ive had the pleasure to stay in. Coveniently located just two blocks from Taos plaza and within minutes of Taos ski valley, the rio grande gorge, and countless outdoor activities ranging from fishing to hiking and even hot air balloning. Two full baths made mornings easy and the ability to do laundry really made me feel right at home. The traditional adobe home provides plenty of southwest charm and ample room for entertaining. I cant wait to visit again soon!

Perfect location for town visits and skiing. The "great room" was really great...perfect for group dinners. We had 3 single girls and the accomodations were perfect and much better than a hotel room, since we had 2 bathrooms. :)

Loved the location. The "great room" really is great...we spent a good deal of our time in there. Very cozy and homey house. We had three single people and found it very comfortable, especially with 2 the bathrooms (much better than a hotel room with only 1 bathroom). Would love to stay there again.
