The Perfect Retreat!

An absolutely stunning home filled with natural light, showcasing beautiful artwork from around the world that added a unique and cultural charm. The spacious layout and large sunny areas created a warm, restful, and inviting atmosphere. Walking distance to galleries, shops, and wonderful restaurants. Stunning views of the mountains. James and Monica, our hosts, were accessible and graciously provided us with tips on restaurants, shopping, and local sights. A perfect retreat for relaxation and inspiration!

Best all around

This home was nicer than expected. Location was perfect, condition upon arrival was pristine, decor was gorgeous right down to the beautiful dishes, and everything was in working order. As a bonus, the prairie dog colony entertained us each morning and evening.

Great stay

The house is located close enough to the plaza that you can walk to the action, but is on a big lot and set back - it’s nice and quiet. You can watch the sunrise from the back patio - beautiful! We had a wonderful stay. The six of us had plenty of room. The living and dining areas encourage conversation. We’d love to stay again.

Lovely property, perfect location

Everyone who visited during our 2-week stay loved the house and said it feels like being in the country though it's right in town. The main drag (Paseo del Norte/Sud) is a short walk away through Kit Carson Park. Days were warm in July but nights were cool and we didn't even use the A/C. The house is well-designed with bedrooms (great beds!) in a separate wing from the living/kitchen area and lots of comfortable seating for reading and watching the ever-changing sky -- not to mention the prairie dogs. Responsive owners. A great VRBO find.

Interesting history

We loved Taos! This home had great landscaping, very quiet, close to the plaza. The home had a "sunken" living room which surprised us. Each step did have a light to help remind us to step up or down. There were many interesting decorative items. The owner is a potter, so there are many useful pieces. The main road was under construction but getting around town wasn't difficult. Please see Taos Pueblo before you leave - inhabited since 900 CE.

beautiful property

We had a small family reunion at this property for 5 days and nights. It was a beautiful property, adorned with local art and artifacts. We especially loved the Jim Wagner touches. We had a very minor issue with the plumbing and the owner had it fixed it extremely promptly. We couldn't be happier with this property and would recommend it. Close to the square and with a fabulous view. 10 stars!
