Gorgeous weekend getaway
My hubby and I loved our weekend getaway in this beautiful, peaceful, well-appointed place on the outskirts of Taos. The patio facing the mountains was our favorite hangout, both morning and evening, and the hot tub was a fabulous bonus - we watched the stars as we soaked. It's an easy drive to Taos - far enough away to feel calm but close enough to go for a meal. We met our goal of hiking to the top of Wheeler Peak (13k) for the first time in our many decades of living in NM. One of our favorite trips!

Casita de Alfarero is a beautiful property. The amenities were as described and we had a wonderful, peaceful stay. The hot tub and patio area was perfect for evening cookouts. The Taos Love team left nice touches from local businesses in the area and were quite helpful in answering all of our questions. The Wifi service was a little spotty at times, however we were notified of this in advance. We would definitely stay there again!

A quiet, clean, convenient cassita
This perfectly appointed cassita is a nice distance from town, and although it is situated right below a road, it is quiet and pleasant. The house is immaculate with nice southwest accents and stocked with everything you could possibly need for a long stay. A nice little patio has a chiminea for warming up cool nights and a new hot tub. Our only complaint was that the TV is in the bedroom so lying in bed together was the only option to enjoy it —but they are fixing that. Very comfortable furniture and plush towels made this a perfect place to stay at an affordable price.- especially with a pet. We stayed 14 nights and would book again. Taos Love responds immediately to calls and is very helpful with any questions!!
