Impressive condo by the mountains with a stream running along the road and the changing trees were spectacular. The rooms were beautiful but our favorite part was the down stairs living room. We can’t wait to visit again.

Cozy mountain retreat

Excellent location with everything one needs for a stay. Split level design was a bit of a challenge for one of our party. The upper balcony was great for watching the sunset. We had deer visit in the evening. Spent the mornings downstairs outside or inside by the windows watching the sunrise and the birds.

Taos Ski Valley get away

The property was just right for our two day ski trip. The condo was comfortable, nicely decorated and well-equipped. A quick 20 minute trip to the ski area and 10-15 minutes to great restaurants in Arroyo Seco, El Prado and Taos. Our favorites were Taos Cow, Orlandos and Medley. There was quite a bit of snow on the ground so we did not use the outdoor areas but I enjoyed watching daybreak from inside the cozy living room.

Perfect place for ski week at Taos

This is an excellent, clean and comfortable condo to stay in for a ski vacation/ski week at Taos Ski Valley--plus friendly, responsive hosts who want to make sure you have a great experience. The condo itself is decorated nicely with lots of attention to detail--even the knobs and handles are beautiful. The beds are comfortable. There are printed, clear instructions for everything--coffee makers, light switches, etc. And the kitchen has a variety of cooking/serving dishes/pots, as well as many items on hand (salt, pepper, sugar, coffee, spices, etc.) that are very helpful! The master bedroom has a lovely view of the mountains, as does the downstairs kitchen/living area. Taos Ski Valley is about a 17-minute drive from the condo, so it's an easy trip. In addition, the condo is less than a 10-minute drive from the cute village Arroyo Seco, which has some cute shops, coffee shops, and restaurants; I recommend ACEQ. The town of Taos is about a 15 minute drive. Great location for this condo!!!! The hosts are communicative, helpful, and responsive. My friend and I will definitely want to come back next season! I highly recommend this place.

Loved our stay here. We came to ski so the location between Taos proper and the ski resort was optimal. You can tell the owners spend time here as it is well stocked and homey. If you like to cook, they have you covered! Communication was great and everything in the unit was well marked.

Cozy getaway

This condo is off the beaten path. It’s quiet and a lovely place to stay. It’s is set up so well for a getaway weekend. It’s thoughtfully furnished and decorated. The beds are comfortable. If you want a fluffy pillow you might bring one. The kitchen had everything I wanted to use when cooking. There are quite a few items that have been left in the pantry such as spices and some basic supplies. It was nice to have them there. We would certainly stay there again.
