About this house rental

Mesa - In the middle of it all - 4 miles south of Blueberry Hill - 2 miles north of Taos Country Club (open to the public) 6 miles to Taos village, 18 miles to Taos Ski Valley

For the warm summer days when cracking the windows just aren't enough to let in the cool summer air in the evening, there are 2 Mini-Splits to provide air-conditioning (1 in the living room and the 2nd in the primary bedroom.) There is also a swamp cooler in the 2nd bedroom.

“A Hidden River House”, nestled with 4 neighboring homes on the open mesa, is a semi-secluded respite providing 365 degree mountain / mesa views. Each home is strategically situated, affording residents a total sense of quiet serenity and visual privacy.

Two very separate patios offer a varied choice of awe inspiring north or south mountain views. You will experience the rich southwest sun rise and sun set “light shows” so loved and made famous by world renowned artist Georgia O’Keefe.

The large central kitchen, fully equipped with upscale tableware and cookware, comes complete with dishwasher, oven/range, microwave, large fridge and an abundance of counter space. A breakfast bar for two adds dining space or computer work space. Walk out the sliding glass doors for “alfresco dining” on the north patio.

Enjoy 180 degree panoramic views from the light, bright and airy great room with three walls of windows and glass doors. A kiva fireplace adds traditional southwest charm and comes equipped with firewood for romantic fireside dining and cozy evenings of satellite flat screen TV enjoyment.

The two bedrooms are buffered by a full bathroom, creating a total sound barrier between them. The large king master bedroom, with sliding glass doors, walks out to the north patio and the queen guest bedroom is home to the ever important telescope. We promise, you will never forget the “starry starry nights” uninterrupted by city lights as viewed from A Hidden River House. Her dark skies are unparalleled!!

Located as central hub between the 4 major Taos attractions, daily travel is simplified in all directions. Taos Country Club (4 miles) and the newly declared Rio Grande del Norte National Monument (10 miles) are to the south. Taos Ski Valley (18 miles) head north and the quaint adobe village of Taos, New Mexico (6 miles).

If you are searching for quiet private serenity and a unique lodging experience, search no longer. A Hidden River House is waiting your arrival and assures you of lasting fond memories.

Please be advised during heavy snows a 4 wheel drive or all wheel drive, or optional chains are necessary.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at the Hidden River House three times so far, over the past six years, and have recommended it to others. For us, the expansive, peaceful views and particularly the bird feeders, which bring in all kinds of birds (and even a small marmot this trip), are a real joy to watch. One of the first things we do when we arrive is to buy birdseed and fill them up. (Highly recommend!)The bed is comfortable. The BBQ is fun, and making a fire in the kiva fireplace on a cold evening or morning is delightful. The place is well maintained, and not sterile like some places -- you feel like you're in someone's home and they care about it. We highly recommend.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall we enjoyed our stay at Hidden River House. We never did see the river-facing ramada because of extreme heat during our stay. The house has an evaporative cooler and fans that we made use of to keep cool overnight. House itself is comfortable with lots of space. It was nice to have morning coffee on the back patio. It looks like for future guests, some of the formerly unobstructed views will change as there is a new home being built nearby (crews were digging a well during our stay and ran a generator 24/7 for multiple days, thankfully it was quiet during the weekend)....and other structures are on other sides of the home. It did not bother us since the property is still remote and mostly quiet. We liked that the home was well outside Taos itself. Comfortable and well stocked! We would stay here again for a future visit.
