We rented this property (house + casita) for a family reunion with 12 adults + one small child and dog attending. Pros: The location was great, the living/dining/kitchen area was perfect and in good condition for a reunion that had lots of conversation and eating. The kitchen was well outfitted for cooking for large groups. There was a nice patio and it was an easy trip into Taos. The Cons: This house needs, at a minimum, a deep clean, but, more to the point, lots of TLC. Many lights were broken or did not work, window shades in several bedrooms were inoperable, windows were hard to open (a problem especially as it was 10 degrees above normal), and everyone complained that their bed was uncomfortable (a mattress topper is a bandaid on a mattress that needs to be replaced). The property manager is very good and responded to questions and problems as rapidly as they could - e.g. by delivering new lamps - which was much appreciated. Happily, our event was a success and everyone rolled with the discomfort. Indeed, the cousins who ended up migrating to sleep on the very large L shaped sofa said IT was very comfortable. We're just sad that a house with such lovely bones isn't kept up. I give this property an average grade because it's got good karma even as it needs a reno.

comfortable, rambling home that easily accommodated the 10 of us. Six adults and four kids eight and under. The two pups loved the freedom to Rome. Communication with Terra was direct, immediate and informative. We have forwarded the link to friends we believe may also enjoy escaping Albuquerque’s noise, traffic, and in this case heat.

This property exceeded all of our expectations! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless and beautifully maintained. It’s clear the owners take great pride in their home—it felt welcoming, fresh, and cared for in every detail. All the amenities were in perfect working order, and we didn’t encounter a single issue during our stay. Communication with the host was smooth and friendly, and the check-in process was effortless. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a worry-free, comfortable getaway!Opening the pool door was a little challenge but at the end it worked!!
