Note there is a fireplace in the pics. It is not usable if that is something you’re looking for. Otherwise the house was more than cozy for 2 people. Great place just a few minutes from taos. Saw a concert at kit carson park. Went to some hot springs. Went rafting on the rio grande. Cant think of a nicer home base.(except for the fireplace). Lol. There is a common space in the middle of the property where you can have a fire it seems but i did not.

Liked: Cleanliness
The condo is part of a small, beautifully landscaped property. We liked the level entry with parking right out front. The condo is well appointed, with comfortable and attractive furnishings. The east facing window did mean the living area was a bit warm, but the evaporative cooler (though loud) helped, as did a couple of tower fans. The shared courtyard outside the private enclosed patio was quite peaceful and relaxing. We did have some trouble with the television network, and a grab bar for the deep tub would have been helpful (ours with suctions didn't work on the tile surround). Good water pressure and rapid hot water. Overall, we had a pleasant and comfortable stay.

Everything was great but there was no central AC-only a portable air cooler. I realize that many places in Taos do not have air conditioning, and I didn't think to ask, so it's no reflection on the owner, but it was uncomfortably warm at night and the portable AC is loud and is only marginally effective. Other than that, no complaints

Nice rural location, very convenient drive to destinations such as Taos Ski Valley, Rio Grande Gorge, historic Questa and Taos plaza. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay, touring, and cozying inside late in the days when the monsoons poured.Beautiful!

Great location. Small and cozy. Has everything you need. Be aware there is no AC but it was comfortable at night. There is a portable AC unit in the home but it’s not hooked up to water so it won’t be able to blow cold air. Far enough away from Taos so peaceful and quiet yet close enough to get out and about. Would 100% stay here again!

Good place!

We regularly visit Taos and enjoyed the location - being between ski valley and town. The place was great-we thoroughly enjoyed the backyard, view, and grounds. The only challenge was that it was very hot in the living area. The bedroom stayed cool enough if we kept all blinds closed.

Very nice accomodation

The property was very nice, modern, and new in the pueblo style. It was much nicer than I was expecting to be honest. I am used to a little more of the "rustic Taos charm" from previous Taos stays. This unit had great spaces and beautiful design. Parking was easy and nice and privacy of the unit is great. I only stayed 1 night but this would be an ideal place for an extended stay. Would strongly recommend!

Almost perfect

Beautiful. Very clean. Great location, all the necessary amenities-including a corkscrew and wine glasses. Not 5 stars because there is nothing in the house about communicating with guests—it’s all on the app, and not much there.Even just a “we're so glad you’re here would be great. Also The pull Out couch is pretty uncomfortable—if one of a pair snores loudly the second bed is nice…except it was uncomfortable
