This house was amazing. Anything you would want was provided. It was clean and comfortable. The host was very accommodating and quick to respond. We had a great time and cannot wait to go back.
3 couples, 3 children and plenty of room! Family cooking, hiking, hot tubing and fun. Memorable and relaxing. This location is perfect. Close to town but far enough away to see deer in the front yard.
We loved our stay at the Chalet. It was perfect for our two families and kids. Easy access into Red River and the ski area. Would definitely stay here again!
We loved everything about this place. The kitchen had every utensil, pan, and seasonings you need. The hot tub was amazing! My kids loved it. We will definitely be staying here again!
Great place! Minutes from town, quiet and peaceful setting. Clean and spacious home. The rental staff was super helpful and professional! We're already planning for summer activities.
This property had everything we needed (and more) for a wonderful trip to Red River with our family and dog. Check in was extremely easy. Communication with owner/ manager was the best I have encountered with a VRBO property to date. River access was wonderful. We greatly enjoyed our stay.
My family and I enjoyed 8 days staying in Red River. The rental was everything listed and more!!! We loved being so near river where we could hear and see it!! Our hostess was the best, too!! We would highly recommend it. We will definitely return in the future.
I loved this trip. We skied in Red River & then enjoyed downtime in this beautiful cabin. My family loved the big TVs & fast internet. I loved how well appointed this cabin is (from trash bags, kitchen supplies, to bathroom supplies). The bedding was high end & felt great! Everything was in good working order. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐ ️⭐️
We have stayed at this property twice. Once in 2017 and now again in 2023. The location of the cabin is great and the space that it provides is great for families, but the cabin is in dire need of some updates. The carpet is stained and has not been replaced since our stay in 2017. The upper bedroom ceiling fans do not work so during the day the upstairs is very hot and uncomfortable. The tv in the downstairs bedroom was only able to get one channel. We also noticed that it wasn’t cleaned very well. The pans had crusted food on them and the carpet didn’t seem to have been vacuumed well. Overall considering the cost of this cabin we would not stay again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The location was perfect. The home was clean, very well stocked, and the kids really enjoyed the game room and hot tub. The beds were comfy and plenty pillows & blankets were in every room. The homeowner helped us out with some local to-do’s and was very communicative with us. When we come back to Red River, we will definitely stay at this home again. Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us and being so welcoming.
We have stayed in several properties in the upper valley. This cabin was one of the best. The river view and the view from the windows was absolutely stunning. The amenities are wonderful. Very easy to find. Would definitely stay here again.
The property itself is clean and nice but there was dog hair in the room with the bunk beds. A new pool table should be invested in with the amount of money people are paying to stay here also and the beds are very very uncomfortable. I received no emails or text messages on how to check in I kept having to call to get any information. This property needs to have better communication but thanks Devin to all the help we did receive!

Nice place to stay
The map description of where the house is located in relation to Taos Ski Valley is misleading, which is what led us to rent this property. It was a nice, clean, comfortable house and we had everything we needed. There is no trash pickup so we had to load our trash on our luggage to take it to a dumpster in town. It would’ve been nice to have another way to dispose of the trash besides that.

Why they chose this property
Having both been in Red River real estate for many years we have had the opportunity to see so many beautiful houses but as soon as we visited the Smokey River Chalet, as guests at a party, we fell in love. As soon as it went on the market we knew we had to figure out a way to purchase this wonderful home. When you have the windows open you can listen to the peaceful sound of the river and when you are in the living/kitchen the back wall of windows make you feel like you are in a treehouse. I have never seen such gorgeous furnishings, the previous owner owned a high end furniture store in Dallas and he picked out the best and most expensive to furnish the house.
What makes this property unique
It is hard to beat the sights and sounds of the river and mountains from this home. You will also really love the open floor plan. It is perfect for family and entertaining
