One of the finest remaining authentic adobe compounds in Taos County, the La Cumbre property, now 5 private houses on nearly 10 acres, dates back more than 400 years. First built as a Spanish fortress between the Picuris and Taos Pueblos, this historic adobe compound at the end of the High Road evolved into a guest ranch by the early 1900’s and is known to have hosted many of the great artists, writers and scholars drawn to the Southwest during this period.

Located on the South side of town, under a mile from Kit Carson National Forest, the St Francis de Asís Church of Ranchos de Taos, a National Historic Landmark, and under 10 minutes drive to Taos Plaza, Easy Writer is an artist's escape for the quintessential Taos experience.

Easy Rider, starring Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, and Jack Nicholson, was filmed on location in Taos, NM in 1968. The film would become emblematic of 60’s counterculture and spark the New Hollywood era of filmmaking. The Easy Writer house is an artist’s space, a unique and minimal dwelling unlike anywhere you’ve ever stayed. This stand alone home boasts a private adobe courtyard and consists of two sides connected by a central open portal, a kitchen and light filled living room/studio on one half, and a bedroom, writing desk, walk through closet and bathroom on the other. This house is heated traditionally by wood fire only.
