I'm not even sure where to really start. I second most of what has already been said here. This place is clean, everything works, not one problem with getting in or out. I've had a VRBO in the past where this wasn't the case, not with this one. Communication with Mary and Maggie is very easy and they are easy going as well. You will get spoiled at this place, especially based on the price, I really just can't believe it compared to almost every other place in the Taos area. Hot tub is great, stars are bright, it's quiet, every thing you could want for a recipe for relaxation. We went skiing at Taos Ski Valley 3 days with our kids, it was great to get back here and lounge around. Living room has Direct TV and wifi works pretty much through out the house. The TV in the picture has been upgraded too, I'm guessing about a 40" Samsung flat screen, there is a dvd payer but not blue ray if you need that. The hot water is hot, not warm, went you want hot it delivers. Washer and dryer inside work equally as well. It's always nice to head home with a bags packed full of clean clothes.

Bottom line...Beautiful views. Close to skiing and town and far enough out so you don't have to deal with a bunch of screaming kids like at those "resort" condos. This place is listed as pet friendly, we have cats but they do not travel. There is absolutely no smell or sign of animals of any kind in the house. Beds comfortable as is house temperature. I usually find negatives with every thing, it's in my nature. Not here, not this time. Thanks for the wonderful time in New Mexico.

We love the peace and quiet we have found in this beautiful New Mexico location. The house is lovely, beautifully decorated, very clean, very comfortable. (Clean is high on my list of importance.) Sunrises and sunsets are gorgeous.

Being outside Taos, but so close seems perfect. We enjoyed some meals, sight seeing, and shopping in town...and loved heading to our "home" on the mesa afterwards. We'll go back. Definitely

The pictures do not do it justice!! The views are breathtaking!!! We celebrated our 25th anniversary in this home; could not have made a better choice!! Mary and Maggie were great hosts, available if needed yet out of sight. Secluded and peaceful, but perfectly located to take in the sights of the surrounding attractions. Maggie"s hints of local sights were exquisite. We found a gem when we stumbled on this house. The fireplace was great, and the kitchen had everything needed. You will not want to leave!! Will definitely return someday!!!

We spent a relaxing, back-to-nature week at this lovely VRBO and plan to make this an annual visit. Setting is truly magnificent with Taos Mountain front and center from every window on the east. We enjoyed watching the sunrise as well as the setting sun's pink glow reflected on the snowy peaks. We did not turn on the television once- just looking out the windows and seeing huge jack rabbits, wily coyotes and the rural New Mexican landscape was enough. We did use the wifi, and it worked great. Weather was cold and windy for two days, but we were snug in the adobe before a roaring fire in the kiva. The home is clean, well equipped, comfy and beautifully decorated with authentic New Mexican details everywhere- Mexican tile, gourds, pictures, including a lovely one painted by Maggie, tin work and fun animal replicas. Maggie and Mary were very efficient, helpful and friendly. Although it was a bit nippy for the hot tub, M&M had thoughtfully readied it for us. Taos is just a few miles away. and we especially enjoyed the Millicent Rogers Museum and gift shop, eating at Orlando's and driving down all the little lanes and roads. We drove the twisty, scenic Rio Grand Canyon road from Pilar, just south of Taos, to the warm springs at Ojo Caliente and then feasted on chicken burritos- best in the US- at El Farolito in little El Rito. Tip: Instead of picking up or dropping off someone at the Albuquerque Airport, use the shuttle which runs from the airport to Taos. This will save you lots of driving. We loved out stay here, and what we will remember most is a sky studded with thousands of stars which put our little world into perspective. Thank you, Maggie and Mary.

This was probably the 5th or 6th visit for us, and we feel so fortunate to have discovered such an enchanting place! We've stayed in both the house and casita, and both are exquisitely furnished, with the owners' tasteful artistic touches. This spot captures the essence of Taos; the vast, unobstructed views, and the starry nights. We especially enjoy the hot tub and the kiva fireplace. We were disappointed to miss out on a meal at the Dragon Fly (bad timing on our part), which is our favorite restaurant in Taos. Mary and Maggie are the perfect hostesses, and we most definitely will continue to introduce friends and family members to this magical place!

Owner was very helpful, for a last minute reservation the morning of check-in. The home was very clean on the inside and all amenites for a comfortable stay. Only reason I did not rate 5 stars was the view to the west are other homes and obstructs the sunsets, and the back patio area could be in better repair. It was charming, and really no serious complaints.

Stunning location high on a Mesa with spectacular views. The house is wonderful and fits in so well with the scenery., Lovely furnishings, comfortable mattress. Clean and well maintained. Nice back patio with weber grill. A very easy drive into town with its shops, galleries, and restaurants, and just far enough away for privacy, fresh air, and a sense of peacefulness. I shopped one afternoon at the plaza while my husband stayed at the house reading. the owner told me where to shop and recommended a walk along the rio grand river, which was fun for us and our two yorkies. She also recommended dinner at Antonio's...which served the BEST salsa. I don't think you could go wrong here.

Perfect communication from Mary especially as a last minute reservation! No pet fees which was just perfect seeing as we have 3 small doggies. Plenty of space, beutiful home with great decor, beautiful views, great hot tub! I cannot say enough about how clean and comfortable the house was. Plenty of cooking utensils, dishes/cups, very comfortable beds and high qualty linens. The kiva fire place in the living room was so welcoming and was very comfortable to use, used it several times as there was plenty of wood already chopped up! As a plus the hot tub was hot and ready by the time we got there, my husband got right in. The TV in the picture is not the one currently there, it is now a nice larger (30-40') flat screen TV with satellite and no interuption problems. We will certainly be back again! Very reasonably priced for such a lovely home. The BEST place in Taos by FAR! Thank you so much for such a great experience!
