Romantic Getaway close to Sipapu and Ft Burgwin. Within Carson Nat'l Forest

This casita holds so many of the traditions of a northern New Mexico culture while having the conveniences of today's technologies. Be far from civilization when you want and in touch with the world at your finger tips. Opened up a deck of cards stored in one of the drawers and played some games. Went hiking towards Serpent Lake (mile marker 167 on Hwy 518) on a cool, cloudy afternoon. The evening sky was filled with stars and a partial moon which was easy to see from the hot tub that soothed the aching muscles from the hike. Took a day trip to Capulin Volcano National Monument through Angel Fire and Cimarron (beautiful scenery) and hiked around the crater. On the way there, we were mesmerized by the Palisades (see this incredible rock formation for yourself). The Folsom Museum in Folsom near Capulin is more than interesting. Enjoyed a day on the plaza in Taos and in Ranchos de Taos too. Took a drive to the old, little village of Cordova and purchased some wood carvings from the same woodcarver's home. Stopped in Chimayo where the holy Sanctuario is located and visited the eighth generation Ortega family weaving shop. Even purchased some wonderful wool placemats and coasters for friends' 30th wedding anniversary. All in all, would do it again in a heartbeat. Thank you Beverly, Rich

From my 1st communication with Beverly, everything was a breeze. She answered my "in depth" questions patiently & pleasantly. This trip was a quiet getaway for my husband and I and proved to surpass our expectations.

Our stay was for 4 nights. We arrived after dark (we took Beverly's suggestion for dinner in Chimayo on our way from Santa Fe - amazing!) expecting to have some difficulties finding our way in. Everything was just as Beverly described, thankfully.

We spent most of our daylight hours out of the house, excited for our return each evening to this home, the stars, the hot tub. . .made it the perfect end to each day.

As noted, this trip was just for 2. We plan on returning with our 2 kids next year. This home easily accommodates 4.

This was certainly one of the best homes I've had the opportunity to stay in. The house and the property were gorgeous and close to a hiking trail (Rio Grande del Rancho) parallel to the highway. Being about 5 miles outside of town was very nice and peaceful, not that Taos has a lot of "hustle and bustle" to escape from. It only takes about 10 minutes to get into town where there are lots of nice shops in the plaza and in John Dunn Shops (adjacent to the main plaza) are restaurants/bars/live music. House is nicely decorated, there are multiple firepits and it is just so cute, welcoming, and clean! Wifi great, hot tub great. You can easily drive down to Santa Fe for a day as well. It was definitely a fantastic retreat that I would love to stay at again. Not Uber & Lyft friendly, so plan on driving everywhere you go.

Clean, extra comfy and well maintained property. Private location and back patio area are perfect in design and a place to unwind.

Very beautiful and clean casita about 6 miles from Taos. The owners made this an easy experience and we were pleasantly surprised how nice the property is! So clean and upkept very well! I would recommend this property to anyone headed to Taos or Santa Fe.

Thank you!!
