This house was beautiful. Layout was great and the kitchen had everything we needed plus it was easy to use. Loved the front patio looking out toward Taos Mountain. Easy drive into town or to ski area. 5 star rental!!!

Fantastic property! The pictures don't do it justice. Lots of nice decorative touches and thoughtful inclusions, like extension cords on both sides of the bed. The views here are phenomenal. Definitely worth getting up early for the sunrise! A true gem!

The property was the perfect distance between Taos and Taos Ski Valley. It was clean and had plenty of amenities. The 270 degree views from the living room were stunning!

Reviewer Comments:
House and furnishings were nice, but the interior is in need of some repair. Broken areas on some of the walls and stains from what looks like moisture/leak problems. Moiture stains also on some of the blinds. We go for views and while you can see the mountains, most of it is over the top of the neighboring houses. Same for the "sunrise and sunset" views. Had these clearly been seen in the photos, we wold have picked another home in this area. We've stayed at a couple of other rentals within blocks of this home with better overall views. This house was nice enough, we had just expected more for what we spent, compared to the others that we have stayed at. Hot tub area is nice and the night sky views were great from where it is situated. There were lots of flies and wasps/bees in the garage each morning and somehow many made their way into the house. By the way, there is only 1 TV and it's in the living room.
