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.

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.

Close to everything and so private
We really enjoyed staying here. The large living room area was perfect for our daughter to spread out her Christmas presents and play. I loved cooking in the kitchen with the natural light. It was easy to keep the place warm. No complaints!

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!

Taos summer retreat
The property is located about a mile from the plaza but very quiet and secluded. Lovely garden with lots of trees. We loved just sitting outside and enjoying the cool breeze and watching the birds. The house is very comfortable but a bit like visiting your grandparents farmhouse.

Great stay, again
This is our third time to stay here. First time was several years ago. Still the beautiful home and gardens as always. Kids still love the tree house, too. 5 minutes from town, but you feel out in the country. Looking forward to our next stay.

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.

A bit of countryside within Taos
The property was secluded, with lovely flower gardens and outdoor space. The house was charming, with plenty of space and had all the necessities for cooking. We had no issues of any kind and felt at home our entire stay. We would definitely return.

Wonderful Stay in Taos!
Our family of four had a wonderful stay at Melissa's magical property. While it was Spring Break and a little soggy from the rain, I saw the potential beauty of the yard and garden when Spring arrives. The house and amenities were very cozy and comfortable. I vow to return in a warmer month!

Peaceful, lush and very welcoming.
What a great place to relax and enjoy the peacefulness of nature. We will definitely come back to stay. The location is perfect, you feel like you are miles away from everything but yet in town. Thanks for everything! D Reber

Wonderfully eclectic rustic casita & grounds!
We really enjoyed staying here. It was perfectly located - convenient to shops and restaurants but still rural enough to capture the authentic feeling of Taos. It's very eclectic & bohemian, but still very comfortable. The kitchen is full of everything you need to cook. The grounds are amazing with outbuildings, a treehouse and fabulous 'yard-art.' We highly recommend renting this property.

Farmhouse Escape
We had a great time exploring the property and loved the hot tub and fire places. The main house was very spacious and had more than everything we needed. Melissa was responsive if we needed anything (we got lost driving there..). We loved all of the quirky touches and are thinking about coming back someday!

Very much as described. Really quaint.
Seems like a great place to visit during spring and summer. Quaint setting nice and quiet, lots of cool antique stuff. Only recommendation I would have is a small washer and dryer when you're traveling with kids nobody wants to go to the laundromat. And the beds were way too hard for our family. Melissa was very responsive all in all a great stay!

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!!!
