Wonderful big Taos home with everything you need.

Wonderful big Taos home with everything you need. Ample bedrooms and bathrooms for a party of 7-8 people. Close enough to town for last minute groceries. We sat on the porches, enjoyed the local sites and spent multiple days on the ski hill.

Definitely better than I was expecting!

There were some dodgy reviews of the property but the price fit our budget, so we were prepared to be satisfied but not wowed. Our experience from the get-go was absolutely wonderful! Gail (the owner) is super communicative, proactively providing us with tips and even local deals. She went out of her way to ensure that our arrival was easy, as we were taking a long road trip to get there and arrived late and exhausted. We were so grateful for her personal touches! The property is both isolated and centrally located, which was perfect for us. Down a long driveway, with soul-inspiring views that made us all go outside to breathe in the beauty both during the mornings and the sunsets. The house itself is helpfully stocked with random things that just make you feel like you're crashing at a friend's place -- herbs and spices, tupperware, lots and lots of plates and flatware, everything you need to make big, wonderful meals with your loved ones. And a large table for everyone to sit around, eating those meals and playing games. The primary bathroom is a dream!!! Everyone had to take at least one shower up there, just to experience it! Lastly, it's so dang comfy! Our four teenagers, my 85-year-old father, and my partner and I were all able to relax and feel at home. It's nice, well-appointed, but not formal or stuffy. There are plenty of spaces for gathering, and also nooks where quieter folks can take a break from the chaos. Overall, just a lovely place to hang out.

Convenient location and well equipped.

The location was great, just a few minutes drive from the plaza and the home had absolutely everything you could ever need to cook as well as plenty of bedding and towels. The home had lots of space for our family of 5 - 4 adults and 1 child - and the mini pool table and corn hole games were a fun addition. There was a slight issue with the accuracy of the listing, but that was no fault of the owner and it was addressed immediately. Communication with the owner was stellar - she is very responsive and handled our requests perfectly. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property to others.

About the host

Hosted by Owner / Property Manager

I was born in Perth, Western Australia and moved to Taos when I learned and became hooked on skiing. Taos is a wonderful ski area in that it is challenging and the people are very friendly. After initially spending only winters in Taos, I soon realized that Taos is a wonderful place year round. I love to hike and mountain bike with friends and my dog Lilly.

Why they chose this property

I chose this property not only because the house had a nice floor plan, but because it sits on a large piece of land, close to town with amazing views as it sits up on a hill overlooking the town of Taos. It has a lot of trees, both natural and that I planted which thrive due to an acaquia that runs through the property providing lots of water in the spring and summer. It did take a lot of renovating, love and decorating to get the house and the gardens to the state they are in today.

What makes this property unique

My house will feel more like a home than a rental as I use it often for friends and family, so it has nice furnishings, bedding and will have most things you would need at your own home. As the house sits on a hill overlooking Taos to the west, the sunsets are amazing and it is great to enjoy them from the wrap around verandah. It is great to stay at such a private spot yet be just minutes from town. Come enjoy my piece of Taos paradise.
