Quiet, Pet Friendly Home with Mountain Views. Fenced area for dogs to roam

2 Bedroom, 2 Bath, Sleeps 6

This home is situated on 3.5 acres with mountain views from most windows. 10 minutes from Taos Plaza and 23 Miles from the Taos Ski Valley. The Rio Grande Gorge and many hiking paths that surround the area are 11 miles away.

This southwestern style home features a floor plan that allows the bedrooms to be completely separated from the gathering areas.

The living area includes the kitchen and dining room all in one. Enjoy your time with friends and family in this open floor plan with a view.

The kitchen is well equipped and you will find most of your spices and oils essential for your stay. Condiments are also available to you.

The master bedroom features a king size bed with a view of Taos Mountain and an en-suite with a jacuzzi bathtub.

The second bedroom has a queen size bed. Both bedrooms are separated from the main living area via a hallway and two french doors.

During the winter months warm your toes with the radiant floor heating. There is also a fireplace with plenty of firewood to keep you warm.

Although this home is not equipped with air conditioning, it is rarely needed with the mild weather in Taos (elevation 7,000’).

Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktails on the patio facing Taos Mountain.

Your dogs will be safe and have plenty of room in the fenced in area.

Perfect for people with dogs!
This was a second stay! Great place near lots of outdoor activities in the Taos area. We really enjoyed the nearby hiking and biking trails. Easy drive to Taos Ski Valley, the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument and the Enchanted Circle. House is as advertised and is perfect for folks travels with dogs. Small backyard is fenced and house is a good distance from the neighbors. An added bonus is the 360 degree views of sunrises, sunsets and the mountains! .

Relaxing stay-beautiful views
Very nice property, well appointed, beautiful views. Great place for dogs, ample private places to walk. Only negatives are outdated electronics (TVs) and discarded items outside detract from ambience.

8 Days in Ranchos de Taos
We appreciated the fenced back yard for our dog, but as another review noted, the back patio was very overgrown with weeds and detracted from a pleasant outdoor experience. It was a bit depressing and could have been remedied by a quick weed-whacking from the property manager. That is the only downpoint with this stay. It was a bit close to the road so there is some road noise but that isn't the owners fault. We felt safe with the private, gated entrance. The house was also generously appointed with coffee, condiments and toiletries. We loved sitting outside in the evenings enjoying the view of the mountains... if it just weren't for all of the tall overgrown weeds.

Peaceful and quiet getaway
The house was clean and comfortable, with excellent provisioning. The exterior of the property was negatively impacted by an abundance of dead plant materials around the front and rear patios and yard. I called this to the manager's attention when we arrived, as it was disappointing to behold. Since this is merely a matter of outside maintenance,, it should be easy to remedy. That's why I've given overall rating of 3 stars. We enjoyed the location and the privacy.

Quiet and comfortable get away
Wendy’s place was exactly as described. Check in was straight forward and the house was clean, quiet, and comfortable. It was a perfect escape from the city and the heat. I really appreciate it being dog friendly without a ton of excess rules. It’s nice to be able to travel with pets without added stress.

Great dog friendly property
My wife and I stayed here with our two dogs and had a wonderful time. The fenced in yard worked great with our dogs, and the house itself was clean and lovely. The only minor issue was the water -- it was very hard and water pressure wasn't great.

Great house and wonderful for our dogs. The view is a knockout. Began and ended every day on the swing looking at the mountains. The kitchen was well supplied and the bedrooms/bathrooms were very comfortable. I would stay again.

Overall good. Nice to have fenced yard for our two dogs. We stayed one month, one complaint there is a A/C unit in living room and one in Master, it was very very loud. The master was held together with masking tape from the hose to the outside, so fell off twice. Otherwise good house, loved walking our dogs on the property in the morning and early evening. Good location, very peaceful but not too far from town.

Nice House!
Kitchen and living room was a nice huge room. Only one bedroom had AC so one couple slept in the living room/kitchen area where the other AC was. Nice backyard for the dogs. Checkin was very easy.

This is the perfect little house for us and our English bulldog. We had a very nice day. The place was clean and gorgeous views. The star gazing was great! Close to everywhere but far enough to feel private.

Incredible views
The house was very clean, had everything you needed and more. Layout was great for someone who gets up early and does not want to disturb the sleeping family members. Fenced yard was good for the dogs. And of course the views were breathtaking from the many windows in the house.

Quiet and Cozy
My family had a great time at Wendy's place. It was just outside of town (5-10 mins), which was perfect--we were close enough to enjoy the wonderful town of Taos, but far enough away to enjoy the quiet beauty of the area. The views were great, and the place had everything we needed. Wendy was very communicative, and the check-in and check-out processes were easy. The home itself was very comfortable and spacious, and there was even space to park our trailer that we had with us, which was so helpful. Overall, we had a wonderful time, and I would definitely stay here again when visiting Taos.

The pictures don’t do it justice. The place felt so welcoming, comfortable, and homey. We very much enjoyed the telescope and the spa-like bathtub. Views were breathtaking. Small touches throughout the place meant so much!
