First is The Q, a beautiful 1200 sf home with an open floor plan, a well-appointed living room with a king bed in the sleeping alcove and a twin bed, trundle bed, and a sleeper sofa in the living area. Radiant floor heat, an awesome solarium, and a wood stove for charm keep this house cozy in winter. The adobe construction keeps it cool in summer. If you need more space, there's the nearby Stick Casita. The Stick Casita, (casita means "little house"), has one bedroom with a full bed and a twin bed, and then a twin daybed in the living room. There is also a full bathroom and kitchenette in this casita. \*(You must enter a minimum # of 4 guests to access the Stick Casita or the camper trailer, even if there are only 3 of you). All this is set in an old juniper and piñon pine forest. You'll have access to the double loop walking trail, (about 1.5 miles), that's shared with my adjacent properties. It's all really quite magical and not far from Ojo Caliente Spa and Springs asa well as the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument, to name a few amazing things to visit. I created this place for you to connect with the land and connect with your heart. Relax and unwind in nature, go out on adventure, or enjoy music and art in Taos. Stay as long as you can! This is an excellent getaway for singles, couples, small families, and close friends. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Pool/Spa - Massage ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Kitchenette - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Breakfast available for a fee - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Stereo - TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Porch/lanai ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Gravel flooring in public areas - No elevator (single-level property) - Single level property - Smooth flooring in public areas - Stair-free path to entrance - Tile flooring in public areas - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the mountains - On a river ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Rafting nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,200 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/88000000/87820000/87819600/87819502/w509h683x258y0-6da6c03c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ranch House Respite outside Taos, New Mexico!

Mar 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Stars were amazing It’s a pretty isolated property. Lots of peace and serenity. The kids did dogs and s’mores after building a campfire. If you have a Tesla this probably isn’t the best place. Taos does not have a supercharger and the closest one is in Sante Fe. Actually I would stay away from Taos all together if you have a Tesla. Other than that ( it’s not the property fault) the place was great. Had a neat hiking trail, fire pit, some neat art work in the typical New Mexico vibe. If you love nature this is a great place! ##### Kurt S.
