Can We Keep This Gem a Secret?

BKUNC Tucson, AZ
Review Submitted: January 31, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
Very well appointed, spacious, comfortable, warm, highly functional. Awesome choice for a family of 4 or 2 couples.
We've rented in Arroyo Seco and Valdez for the last 4 years and the views/location of this particular property - simply spectacular. Entertained another family of 4 for dinner one evening and the home couldn't be better suited. Great kitchen with all the little items one would never bring from home. Close to everything you could want in the Taos area. 4 wheel drive was advantageous the first couple of days with all the snow. The property around the house proved awesome for our youngsters to play outside whenever we weren't sleeping at home.
