Great vacation rental
Review Submitted: January 9, 2011
Date of Stay: December 2010
This was the perfect vacation home for our family on our Taos Winter vacation.
Now, as I read in the description, the exterior of this home is still curing and waiting to be finished, so at first glance, it may be somewhat unassuming, but boy, once you walk in, you will love this home, as we did. The photos of this adobe home really do not do it justice. We came to appreciate every feature, from the “Taos Twist” silverware to the widespread New Mexican design that is the very essence of this home.
First things first, this home is immaculate. Everything is like new - the kitchen, the bathrooms, the bedding, all of it, in perfect condition. Second thing I have to mention is that it is sooo warm and cozy. The weather during our stay reached -18 degrees, but you’d never know it while staying at this house. We loved coming in from the snow and relaxing in the new sitting room, lounging on the sleek leather couches in front of the fireplace. We brought along puzzles and dominoes and kept our little ones entertained on the coffee table. It is a very spacious home with mostly Saltillo tile or wooden floors spread throughout. The second living room provides a TV and DVD player which we also fully utilized to watch football, movies and funny videos. The beds in all 3 bedrooms provided ultra comfort with great mattresses and fluffy white down comforters. Oh and plenty of hot water for the bath, to boot.
With fast wireless internet service, a washer and dryer, and a fully equipped kitchen we had everything that we could ask for to come home to while exploring Taos and its surroundings. The caretakers, George and Beverly were friendly and always available to answer any question that we had.
This was our first experience with vacation rental homes and will be the way to go for us.
I’d recommend this home to anyone looking to visit Taos and/or any part of the Northern New Mexico Region in comfort and style.
Elieen, thanks again!
