This is our second stay here...

This place is ideally located in Arroyo Seco near Taos Ski Valley. We stayed here with our kids for spring break two years ago and booked it again this year. The host is responsive and it was easy to get in and out. It's a comfortable house for a family and makes it easy for us to enjoy our trip together.

Lovely, Quiet, Clean, Comfy, Mountain View, Nice Yard

Clean & classic Taos house in quiet Arroyo Seco. Other homes/casita nearby but felt private. Huge picture window gave views of Taos Mountain and surrounding peaks from sofa and chair in living room or dining area. Sunset views if we went outside out back. My dog enjoyed the large grassy yard. We were only there 2 days and were gone a lot; kitchen had basics for food prep. We were glad we brought our own coffee. Instructions were clear; photos and house description were accurate in the listing. We would definitely return.

Window to Beauty

This cabin was "just right." Two bedrooms, two baths, full kitchen, and a magnificent view of the mountain. A short walk to Arroyo Seco brings great food, boho galleries, and secret gardens. We loved the location, the quiet setting, and the proximity to Taos.

It was a very cozy, well kept perfect mountain hideaway. Everything the description of the property said was 100% accurate. Very clean & it had everything we needed. Would recommend this place to anyone heading to Taos, NM. Will definitely stay here again if we are in the area!

Loved our stay in Arroyo Deco

This was a great home base for a week of skiing. The house had everything our family of four needed, it was very quiet, and the surrounding landscape is beautiful. We enjoyed being close to the shops in Arroyo Seco and only a short drive to Taos. We'd love to stay here again!

Gorgeous views in a very comfortable, well-appointed home made for a great stay! Walking distance to the little village of Arroyo Seco and about a 20-25 minute drive to both Taos and the Ski Valley. The property manager was communicative and gave clear directions and instructions. We loved our visit!

Perfect spot!

We will definitely be back! A perfect accommodation for a family of 4 with dogs—right between TSV and Taos town for easy access to both. The space was super comfortable, well-laid out, clean, and quiet. Big front yard for the dogs. Love that it had two bathrooms. Donna was very communicative and kind, as well.

Close to Taos Ski Valley in a cozy village

We’ve been to Taos several times, but this was our first time staying in Arroyo Seco. We loved the location and there was plenty of space for our family. It was easy to find and in a quiet neighborhood just minutes from restaurants and a market. We loved the views and fireplace. This should be on your list if you plan to spend time on the mountain.

Another great stay!

Host was very responsive and accommodating. The property met all of our needs. We have enjoyed staying here twice. We loved being out in the country near Arroyo Seco yet so close to the little town and easy access to the highway to Taos and to the ski area and nearby hiking trails. House is quiet, clean and cozy. I also appreciate that the bedding and towels are washed in unscented soap. Thank you for being a great host!
