I have so many good things to say about this rental, I'm not even sure where to begin.
The location is incredible. If you love the mountains, you're going to love it here. It's very close to ski lifts in the winter, yes, but it's also so close to one of the coolest hiking trails in New Mexico! The property manager was very quick and friendly with communication, and went out of her way to answer my questions about the Taos area, best places to eat, etc. (I have a gluten and dairy-free diet due to allergies) well before my arrival.
The property was exactly as pictured, but cooler! I loved the coziness of it (I did have a guest for one night of my stay, and it was really cozy and just roomy enough for both of us). It's very clean and well-maintained, with a kitchen stocked with plenty of gear for cooking, with microwave popcorn packets, instant oatmeal, fresh drinking water in the fridge, and more.
If you have a vehicle that can handle very steep incline and lots of switchbacks, go for it (had I known it was quite so far up in the mountains-mountains I would have been hesitant to book, but my car made it just fine and I'm so glad I did!). You'll need four-wheel drive and maybe snow tires to make it up in the winter.
I absolutely loved the chill vibe and pure mountain air - the sweetest I've ever breathed. This is a great rental and I'll absolutely be back (and maybe bringing more guests with me!).
