Cute property a short ride from town
This is a really unique, cute and funky property a 5 minute car ride from the historic Taos downtown. The description is very accurate. We were two couples and stayed in the main house, where the two bedrooms and 2 baths are located. We checked out the tree house, Airstream and original casita by peeking in the windows; they are all available as sleeping spaces but the only bathrooms are in the main house. That was fine for us. The kitchen is really well equipped for anyone who wants to cook and eat there; unlike many vacation rentals, just about everything you need is available, including things like spices. We greatly appreciated the coffee! One bedroom has an en-suite bath, dresser and table, but no closet. The other bedroom has a huge closet, and uses the full bath near the kitchen. The living room and dining room are comfy and cosy. Heating is done by a gas stove in the dining room controlled by a wall controller (super easy, and nice to the comfort of the flames). There are also heaters and fans in each room. We did use the heaters in the evenings because the nights were chilly. Both bedrooms have heated mattress pads, a really nice touch! It's definitely a unique property, cute, funky and rustic. The patio and yard are really welcoming and the house is comfortable. A nice place to stay for our short trip to Taos!

Beautiful property
Overall, everything was nice. The only thing that would keep me from renting this again was the beds/pillows were very uncomfortable. We did go purchase our own pillows which helped!

This is a beautiful piece of property. There is a very relaxing energy here and if you’re looking for a quiet out of the way and still just a few minutes from town this is your place. Melissa was extremely accommodating. I will most likely try to stay there again in the future. Thanks, Melissa.

Authentic Taos!
This home is just a short drive - about 1.5 miles from Taos Plaza. Although an older home, everything works well. The character of the home - the decor, layout, furnishings are authentic Taos - something that a hotel or modern home could never provide. Beds were comfortable and outdoor spaces were fascinating. Recommended!

Quiet and Peaceful
Lovely spot with convenient access and a beautiful yard. The home is comfortable and clean. A little rustic but in a nice way, we enjoyed cooking in the kitchen. The only thing we wished it had was laundry, but we stayed a week and it certainly was not a draw back - would just be a nice add.

Overview
The property ground were just beautiful. Love the native plantings. Such a great place to let a dog run around a bit & feel free. The home itself needs work. The stove smells of propane. We didn't even try the oven. Leaky/loose faucets in kitchen & 2nd bath. House needs a fresh coat of paint & lightening up. Honestly didn't feel clean. I brought my own sheet for dog bed. Oh, the smaller loveseat in the living room needs cleaning or replaced. Such potential here.

Eclectic, Rustic Property
We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 nights at this property. You feel like you are out in the country but are close to everything. We were comfortable, the house was very clean and we loved sitting outside by the fire (we built ourselves and appreciated having wood available on the ready!) 2 of our evenings. Value for the stay was GREAT! Yes the property may seem (to some) like it needs some updating BUT we found the charm, quirkiness and rustic vibe absolutely magical and wonderful! We stayed in the main adobe house, but did explore the property and peeked through windows. I LOVED the outhouses!!!

A Quiet Getaway
This property is a very unique, rural place, and a nice, quiet getaway with all the amenities of the modern world. So, it fit everyone's likes from parents who wanted quiet to teens who didn't want to be away from wi-fi! Our dog loved the huge property where we walked him and we loved the intricacies of the out buildings as well. Such a unique area true to the architecture of Taos. It's was so fun to have the casita on the property where the author John Nichols wrote, the Airstream, and the treehouse! We enjoyed it all.

Can we just stay?
Perfectly peaceful property. Loved our stay and enjoyed having our dogs with us. The location is perfect- is on land- feels remote but is very close to town. We loved the hot tub and the kids loved the treehouse. The house is full of charm and character. Wind chimes surrounding the property were lovely. The only change we would make is adding a washer/dryer. Thank you for having us!

natural gas issue
The house had a very strong smell of natural gas, which made it uninhabitable. Fortunately the owner's phone number was in the house so we could reach her immediately. Also fortunately she was able to move us to another nearby property right away, so the trip ended well despite the initial problem.

Great, Quirky place
Overall, we had a great stay and communication with the host. The place has some quirks, which was fine with our family but might not fit everyone. We would stay here again and would love to try it out in the summer with the additional spaces.

Would Stay Again
Would stay again next time we are in town. The communication with Melissa was excellent, and we were able to find everything with ease. The location was perfect in regards to its rural feel, but it was only a 5 minute drive from downtown. The property is beautiful, and there was lots of space to explore and walk around.

All Too Brief Stay…
…in a charming New Mexican abode house set on beautiful, semi-rural grounds conveniently located on the outskirts of Taos. Wonderful bedding, terrifically outfitted kitchen with the most fabulous O’Keefe and Merritt stove (LOVED cooking and baking with it)! Captivating grounds providing all the nutrients the birds, bees, insects, and critters need to thrive, care and provide for us. Wonderful flowers, lawn, hammock (spent part of an afternoon soaking up the sun in it), and Mellisa’s art work to please the eye. Enjoyed every minute on this lovely property. You will too!
