Nice little hidden gem
This was our first vrbo experience & Doug & Jayme were great about answering All If my questions. We had a little snafu with the reservation after arriving but thank goodness Jayme handled it with grace and made us feel super comfortable. Definitely recommend.

Beautiful and Peaceful
We had such a wonderful stay in this tiny home experience. This would not have been our usual choice for a vacation stay, but I’m so glad we did. Good to get out of our comfort zone and experience the beauty and serenity of this area. Loved it!

Great property, great location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Big Little Hideaway in El Prado/Taos area. The tiny home was great and everything we needed for a 3 night stay. The unit was small but provided everything needed for the 2 of us and our small dog. Unit was clean, owner was extremely helpful.
The location was great as well. The rental is one of several on the property. Located just 15-20 minutes north of Taos and a short 35 minutes to Red River. Centrally located and made our time in the Enchanted Circle very convenient.
Hosts were great and provided excellent communication before, during, and after our stay. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Taos.

Great little getaway!
My husband and I had a fabulous and memorable stay in the Rio tiny home. It was cozy, clean, and peaceful with the best views! We explored the property in our down time, which was nice for a short hike. I just can't put into words how much we enjoyed our time at the compound. Hot tub views were breath taking. We will definitely book again. Actually considering renting all three tiny homes for a family gathering.
Btw, the hosts were very responsive and friendly.

Perfect Taos Getaway
What a great find! This tiny home has all you need to feel tucked away in nature, but with all the comforts of home. We loved the hot tub, the secluded spot, the fire pit and proximity to Taos. We used it as a home base to explore Jemez Springs as well. Had a great Time — we will be back for sure and hope to rent out the whole compound with our friends and family. Thank you for a great visit!

Great Getaway
Wonderful place to getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! Very close to fishing, hiking by the river and a short jaunt to Taos Ski Valley! We would definitely stay again and would recommend highly.

SO FUN!
My wife and I came to celebrate our anniversary and we had such a fun getaway. It was in such a cool area, felt great to unplug and just spend some time together. Jayme and Doug are so great with communication and made everything so easy. The tiny home was so cute, clean, and cozy. We also went down to the John Dunn bridge and then hiked out to the hot springs... what a great weekend adventure. I definitely recommend this place if you just want to unwind and reconnect with nature! We had a blast!
Five Mabuhay stars according to my daughter! The place is perfect for our vacation- very relaxing and close to nature! You have everything you need in this tiny home! It’s close to hiking and ski area. You will feel at home. The view from the window is breathtaking! Perfect for an afternoon tea or wine on sunset!
