Oct 2007 - We loved our stay at this casita! It’s beautifully appointed, warm space full of creative energy: art & good music. Sitting in the hot tub one night we saw 3 falling stars in a 15 minute period. Amazing! Enjoyed grilling Bison steaks (from Cids market) and making the rest of our meals in the well equipped kitchen. Loved the Tapas from the French Latin fushion place: Gutiz. Walked the gorge trail & spent time at the Taos Pueblo. We’d recommend this place to anyone! (Lynn & Scott from Ann Arbor, MI)

July 2007 – We celebrated our 14th anniversary here & had a wonderful time. This casita is a joy to stay at. We spent time at the Fiesta “Que Vivan Las Fiestas de Taos!” And we hit the Black Mesa & La Chiripada wineries. The kitchen was great for cooking & the hot tub was fun to. (Chris & Liz from Denver Colorado)

If you want a true Taos Mountain experience then this is the place to stay. Close to town/plaza 10 minutes & only 15-20 minutes from the world famous Taos Ski Valley. Also, we hike & bike for miles from the property to national forest land. Last, it is right next to Arroyo Seco which is a really cool off-shoot of Taos with Taos Cow ice cream and restaurant, art galleries & great shops.
