Palace Of Miracles: Hot Tub, Lounge Spaces, +Casita, mtn views,5 courtyrds,6 FPs
According to legend, the Palacio was originally a stop on the Military Line of the Pony Express, then re-built as an Art Gallery. It is now Converted to a Getaway For Groups that want LOTS of elbow room in a sprawling 7000 square feet. The South Gallery is 34 feet long, the Main gallery even larger. There is the Palacio (main house), the Casita (guest house), Seven (7) fireplaces, and five(5) courtyards.
Send the kids to the North Gallery / Bunk Room and they will be in a world of their own, all the way across the Main Gallery. The Master Bedroom has its own fireplace and lounge, which is larger than most living rooms at 20 x 20.
The Dining Room has its own fireplace for cozy meals, or just to gather. The Pantry can handle meal preparation for large groups, and serves out to the Dining room. The eat-in Kitchen has room to serve an informal meal and its own fireplace.
The optional Casita/Guest House has its own bathroom, kitchenette, fireplace, living, study and bedroom, available as an add-on option at an extra charge. It is separately entered across the inner courtyard from the main house.
There is no other house like it in Taos. The Palacio is conveniently located near Arroyo Seco on the paved and plowed Ski Valley Road. Beds, futons and couches sleep 20 or more. With the optional Casita, a total of 5 bedrooms and 6 baths will accommodate a large party; the guest house alone is sufficient for a small family or couple.
ABOUT PETS-- We are making the Palacio open to pets, but pet owners must be responsible. Pets are allowed in designated areas and are NOT ALLOWED on furniture, rugs or carpets. The pet fee is $300, but $250 will be refunded if the housekeeper confirms there are no pet damage or pet hairs left behind.
NOTE: The Palacio is mostly located on one ground floor, but includes numerous "changes of level" (also known as "steps") when passing from room to room. Please be alert and aware, and step up or down when passing a change of level. See, for example, the photo of the Foyer, which looks out over the Main Gallery below.

We really enjoyed staying at this beautiful house and would definitely stay here again. Lincoln was a great host and very quick to respond whenever we had questions. Highly recommend!
Extraordinary, enormous, and unique house. Comfortably slept 19 with room to spare. Conveniently located to between Taos and the ski resort. Clean. The owner was very friendly and flexible. I'd love to stay here again!
The layout and space was great for multiple parties. We loved exploring the house and all it had to offer. The host is very helpful and relaxed (no long lists of what not to do).
The house was wonderful! The yard was much larger than expected and managed our pups well. The casita was a nice add-on (yes, you pay extra for the kind bed, queen and bunks in that space so be aware on the Vrbo listing). The main gallery could use some lighting and furniture updates, but it's a massive space which is so appreciated! Linc was attentive during our stay.
This is was our 2nd stay at the Palacio. Great for our large group, enough separate beds for everyone! The kids enjoyed playing with the toys in the library, and we loved hot tub and grill. Had everything we needed in a quiet and convenient location.
We stayed here with two other families and had a wonderful time. The house is well equipped, had plenty of beds for everyone and is spacious. Would definitely stay here again.
Great place. Great view. Only negative is right next to traffic but has a great back outdoor area away from traffic noise. Fit what we were looking for perfectly.
Linc was a great host. Property itself is super cool and super fun for a big group (there are 13 beds ranging from twin bunks to kings). Hope to come back soon!!
Incredible property. Amazing views. The perfect trip. The Palace was everything one needs for the most magical time in Taos. The house is stocked with everything you need for fun, cooking, entertaining, and making ALL the memories. Lincoln is an attentive, responsive, and caring host. You will not be disappointed!!
Quirky house but perfect for our big group— of many ages. We didn’t love the location on the 2 lane highway and there wasn’t a great view, but the house worked for us and has a full stocked kitchen! The check in was easy and Linc was easy to communicate with. Lots of room for everyone to have their space and spread out. Overall was a good stay!
Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
With family from 5 to 72 years, this amazing rental allowed us to spread out, find areas for retreat, for gathering, for individual art areas, and no worries about neighbors. There were numerous
My group had so much fun here! There is so much space and the property is beautiful. There are tons of common spaces for game nights, chatting, etc. The kitchen is well equipped. The communication was clear and check in was straight forward. I would definitely stay here again.
Had a great stay! Very spacious and worked well for 14 adults.
Had a great stay! Very spacious and worked well for 14 adults. Contact was helpful and Friendly. I will absolutely look at this place again when I plan my next trip to Taos
The property is in a convenient location to explore the mountain or town. Relaxing patios to enjoy the views and a wonderful kitchen to share a meal with friends. The children loved the spacious living rooms.
We had an incredible stay!!! This house is perfect for a large group and Lincoln was extremely accommodating. If you are thinking of booking… do it!!! I highly, highly recommend!!!
Had a very good stay while on our ski trip, This home had lots of room to spread out with our large group, it was perfect. Only 15 min drive to Taos Ski Valley made it perfect!
Our stay was everything we hoped for and more. The home was very well equipped with anything we could need and very clean. Great location close to everything but once in the compound walls you felt like you were hidden away. We plan to be back again.

About the host
Hosted by Lincoln B Quintana
Only a miracle (combined with a lot of elbow grease) made it possible for us to own the Palacio. As shown in this picture, we have re-plumbed and massively renovated the property. I'm good with a pick and shovel and my wife has good taste and knows southwest art and design. We are committed to making the Palacio a place where guests can find their own miracles.
Why they chose this property
The Palacio was originally built by an artist who was also a contractor and a pilot. It was his gallery. It adjoins the Taos Pueblo Lands and stands in the lee of El Salto and the "Magic Mountain". Now we are remaking it into a place where groups can spend a few days, a week or a month taking in the magic of Taos. The main house has beds and bedrooms for 12 and sleeping room for up to 20. The separate guest house has its own bathroom, kitchenette, bedroom and study with sleeping space for another 6 people. The guest house is available at a discount to guests in the main house, or at a reduced first-season rate to smaller parties.
What makes this property unique
Beams, latillas, woodwork, adobe and plaster all set the stage for the quintessential Taos experience, but the huge rooms give the Palacio a magnificence that is not found elsewhere. The building makes me feel expansive and lets my mind roam. Bring your art or music and be creative here. Or sit back and enjoy life in a palatial space.
