Beautiful gem

We had a great stay at Peace & Pizza! It is a wonderful property, very unique and we loved that we could bring our pups along for the trip. The beds are very comfortable, especially the pillows and duvets. The kitchen is nicely stocked with all equipment that you could need, including a spice rack. We prefer French press coffee and were very happy to see that option as well as a drip coffee maker. I would definitely recommend AWD or 4WD vehicle for the road to get to the home.

Could be better…

The setting and the views were remarkable. But after that, this place starts to fall short and has some challenges. The water did not work when we arrived and I had to hike down the hill through mud and snow and reset the well controller and another pressure pump. The kitchen is not well equipped with some simple cleaning items like sponge, scrubber, drying rack, more than one dish towel, etc. which made cooking and cleaning for a small family a challenge. There is deferred maintenance and an ongoing roof leak in the living room. I’m not sure it was real clear how remote this house is and the level of treacherous road that needs to be driven. Without the right vehicle and driving experience, you could easily not make it to the property. For all the trouble, and due to my schedule, I requested a late check out (12pm), but was only offered to pay for a late checkout by Vacasa. 10am is too early when renting a whole house, and with no one coming in the same day or the next, I think a late checkout is the least they could have done. The place has some charm and character if you just stay on the surface. But we travel a lot, own rentals of our own, and I would say this place is not up to the standards that I expect from VRBO properties.

Beautiful home with some issues

The location and the house is beautiful. Plenty of amenities and great view of the mountains. However, we experienced some issues that made the experience average: 1. The water pressure was off due to a switch needing to be reset. This was not communicated to us, and Vacasa did not get back to us for a few days since reaching out. During this time, we were not able to take a proper shower or prepare meals. 2. There's a terrible sewer odor by the entryway/seating area outside. Most times it made it impossible to enjoy the sunset by the house. 3. The wifi is extremely spotty and working from this location would be a stretch.

Fantastic Stay

This quirky house was a perfect get-away. The sunset views were amazing! We were close to Taos but far enough away to truly enjoy the nature that surrounds the home.

Perched on a mountainside above Taos

Beautiful, unique house way up above Taos. Weather wouldn't let us spend a lot of time sitting outside but a beautiful retreat and great jumping-off point for exploring northern New Mexico.
