Margaret's place was perfect for our family of 6 we spent Christmas here and had a fantastic time the only thing that probably would have made it better would be an air fryer, And snow we look forward to renting her place again. Hopefully, next time we'll have a white Christmas.

This home is in a great location if you like a little peacefulness and space. The views from the house are wonderful, you feel like you are in Taos from all rooms. It is a very short drive to eat and shop in downtown. The patios are cozy and the hot tub is fantastic after a day of hiking or shopping. The pool table is a treat, as well! Margaret was a wonderful hostest, providing anything you might have forgotten.
