Photos and Description of the Taos Ski Valley vacation condo rental
Condo, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 10-12)

Situated at over 10,000ft and just a short walk from the Kachina ski lift, the Alpenglow Chalet is waiting to become your family's favorite getaway. One of the newest accommodations in Taos Ski Valley, this vacation property offers *unmatched* views of Kachina Peak and the Sangre de Cristo mountains surrounding the ski area. Thanks to it's height in the valley, sunrise and sunset paints a special glow on the mountains, hence the name "Alpenglow Chalet".

This property has all the extra touches to make your vacation memorable. Downstairs it has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus plenty of storage for your outdoor gear. Heated tile floors take the edge off the brisk mountain temperatures and the fire place in the middle of the floor-to-ceiling windows is the perfect setting for a night of stories, cards, and laughs. Also, enjoy the large, flat screen TV recently installed in July 2011. The kitchen is open and has plenty of counter space for cooking big meals for the large groups that fill our condo. Upstairs, you'll find comfortable couches, a TV for DVDs, and dozens of movies and board games- it's perfect for the kids or young adults. Additionally, there is one queen, one standard, and three twin bunks in this spacious loft area.

If you don't feel like cooking, you're in luck! The highly-acclaimed Bavarian Restaurant is our neighbor. You will find delicious homemade German meals and the finest imported beers served in a beautiful and rustic Bavarian lodge. No need to drive, it's just down the trail!

In the summer, the Alpenglow Chalet is the perfect headquarters for all your outdoor adventures. Adjacent trails lead into protected Wilderness Areas and onto the picturesque Williams Lake. Towering above the condo is Wheeler Peak, the highest peak in New Mexico, and a great place to hike. We also neighbor 'Northside', a collection of mountain bike and hiking trails for all skill levels.

During the winter, a short 5 minute walk takes you to the base of the Kachina lift, where you can skip the crowds by putting on your skis or snowboard starting your day on the fresh backside snow! The easy access to and from the condo means you can have a hot lunch in the well stocked kitchen, or sit on the deck and watch your family and friends ski the Kachina bowl and trails.

Roads are well maintained in the summer and plowed in the winter, however chains (available w/ most car rentals) or a 4x4/AWD is strongly recommended in the winter.

About Heather Uberuaga

We met serving in the Air Force. Mark & Heather were married while stationed in England, where they also met Rob. The three of us have traveled the world together and shared many amazing memories. Mark and Rob still serve in the Air Force and climb mountains together in a charity program. Mark and Heather have two kids that are quickly growing up to be amazing skiers and rock climbers.

Heather Uberuaga purchased this condo in 2007
Why Heather Uberuaga chose Taos Ski Valley

We LOVE the mountains and that is why we bought this property. It is perfect for our families and we hope you are able to experience the stunning sunsets and unbeatable views. Each morning we wake up in the condo puts a huge smile on our faces! Give it a try- we're willing to bet you'll love it too.

Since we are moving all over the nation/world, we wanted a place we could always meet at and call 'home' together. So, while stationed in Albuquerque, we purchased this beautiful property! Now stationed elsewhere in the nation, we still meet up there at least 2-3 times a year in order to share more good times in the mountains and keep involved in our friends' and families' lives.

What makes this condo unique

We love how close it is to the Kachina lift. It gives us time to have a leisurely breakfast before walking w/ the kids to the lift area. Plus, having a beer at the Bavarian is nice b/c we can just walk back to the condo and not worry about driving.

In the summer we like to enjoy our coffee on the deck, then head out for a hike along the creek (just a stones throw away) or get our discs out for the free frisbee golf course.

At night we love to cook large meals and feed big crowds of friends and family, then gather around the fireplace for card games that last late into the night.

If it's winter, we make sure to go out for at least one night of moon-lit skiing in the backcountry above Lake Williams. It's a magical experience. (But we don't recommend it unless you are an expert in backcountry travel)

Use 'satellite' imagery function on the map to find the four green roofs just up the valley- that's the correct location for the Alpenglow Chalet! Will be fixed as soon as VRBO gets their map working right :)

Great Place for any size group

5 of 5
Submitted: February 13, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
We had a group of 9 guys stay for skiing and this was a great place to stay. It was secluded in the woods at the top road near the Bavarian. Its very clean and couldn't have asked for much more from a rental. We had plenty of room and its in a good spot on the mountain, just a short walk (or ski down he road) to the base of Kachina Lift 4. We felt very welcome from the owners, which were very helpful with any questions we had. I would recommend this place and will definetly stay here again. I also recommend paying attention to having a 4 wheel drive vehicle or chains especially with snow in the forecast. It snowed 10" while we were there which made the skiing awesome.

Owner's Response: Bobby- We're excited you guys got to enjoy the fresh powder. (We're also a bit jealous!) There's often a bit more up in our part of the Valley than lower down- always a bonus. I'm glad the property fit all your needs and that you and the guys had a lot of fun up there. Hard to beat those views, eh? I hope you got to enjoy a beer at the Bavarian and that we see you back this summer or next winter. --Rob M

Great view and the property owner has great communication. A little tricky to get to in the winter but once you are there it is an awesome place.

Owner's Response: David- Bring the family back for some more! We're really happy you guys were able to stay in our property and enjoy the rugged views, forested surrounding and great skiing. You're right, the road can be tricky, but hopefully that customized Google Maps page I gave you helped out. Enjoy the rest of the winter and keep us in mind for a summer trip- it's a whole different experience. Cheers- Rob

wow! what a week!

5 of 5
Submitted: February 5, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
This property is as described and very nice. We stayed with 2 adults and 3 kids ranging from 11 months to 5 yrs old, and the condo is perfectly suited for that. I tend to agree with earlier reviews that the couches could be upgraded, but in all fairness it did not bother us at all. The place is immaculately clean, and -great for families with small kids- there is not much that can be broken. The place is decorated in a modern fashion, so its spacious, light and generally a very comfortable place to hang out. The kitchen is very well equiped. The views are indeed fantastic. There is unlimited space outside to build igloos and play in the snow; our kids loved it!
We dropped off the kids at the Taos ski school @ the base area a couple of days, so we skied from there as well. We had tons of snow first days, so snow tires & chains on our 2WD were a necessity. A 4WD would have been even better, but we managed without. Drive to base is less than 10 minutes. Walking to the Kachina lift/Bavarian is no problem.
The Ski school was very good, and the kids enjoyed it a lot. Our 5yr old made very good progress, in just 3 days.
To conclude: The condo and Taos Ski Valley come highly recommended! And last but not least: the owner is a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Rob!
Recommended for:  Adventure Seekers, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children
Owner's Response: Hein- We're real happy you guys scored such a great snowfall and ski conditions. Getting that high up in the Ski Valley while it's snowing makes for a truly memorable experience, eh?! I'm especially glad to know that the Ski Valley's ski school helped your kids. I hear it's highly rated, so it sounds like they've earned their rating. We're also real happy to hear your kids were outside playing- some people miss out on all the fun of sledding, cave building, exploring, and snow ball fights in all the outdoor space. Come on back again- we'd love to have you guys stay for the summer or next winter. Cheers- Rob

We stayed at the this condo right after Christmas and had a wonderful time. It is all it is advertised to be, which is rare to find. Rob was very helpful and great to work with. The view of the mountain and the snow was spectacular. We will come back to stay at this condo when we are back in Taos as it is clean, well maintained and warm and cozy!

I think you are our first visitors from overseas, which makes me especially happy that the property met all your expectations! We're making upgrades to it this spring, so when you come back, hopefully it'll be even better than before. Best wishes to you guys 'down under' and here's to having you stay with us again sooner than later. Cheers- Rob
