The view was amazing. The house seems kind of old and bathrooms are very small. No access from interior to garage. Garage was scattered with junk and garage door was in disrepair. Unable to use garage for vehicle. Heating unit struggled to maintain 68 degrees. The house was good enough for us but could use some updating.

The good, the bad, and the ugly
Stayed 4 nights during June. Here are our thoughts: The Good - Great views. House was stocked well, beds were comfortable, showers had good water pressure. Location of home was great, close to the National Forest & convenient to Taos The Bad - Very hard to find especially at night. No address on the road and no lights left on. Typical 3rd party management oversights …burned out light bulbs, dirty windows, broken lamps & blinds, remote controls missing (especially frustrating was the remote for the main room light which we couldn’t use at all during our stay). Confusing checkout info asking us to place all garbage in outside dumpsters which didn’t exist. The Ugly - the AC didn’t work, or rather I believe didn’t exist at all, even though it is an amenity listed (we could not find any evidence of an AC system inside or outside the house). Usually this is not a problem in Taos, but we did have some warm days and couldn’t use the living room in the afternoons. This was exacerbated by the fact that only one windows in the living room had screens. In addition there was a bad smell in the 2nd bedroom which got worse when it was warm. All of this I reported to Vacasa which handled it very poorly, first telling me to open the windows for the odor & look for the remotes in drawers. Then after many text exchanges with different people each time, I was told the local team would get in touch, which they didn’t ☹️

Nice getaway!!
The house was beautiful with big windows facing the mountain. It was fun watching the snow fall and elk from the living room windows. Reliable WIFI, plenty of games and a smart TV to keep everyone busy. After reading other reviews I was concerned about the driveway in the snow but we didn’t have any problems getting in and out during the week. The property manager even reached out to us about the weather and to warn us of the driveway on our way there which was nice. It was a bummer the garbage disposal didn’t work during our stay and there were dead flies inside the house. Those things happen though. We still had a great time and love visiting the enchanted circle. We’ll be back!!

It was a perfect location! Far enough out of town to be quiet but not a terrible drive to town. Coffee maker didn’t work but that was quickly replaced. We would definitely rent again

Could be great with a little upkeep
Rented the house for our tenth anniversary weekend because my wife wanted a location with a hot tub. Unfortunately that one feature was the worst part of the property. The water was off color and you could see dirt in the seats/bottom of the hot tub. Dead bugs, bulbs burned out, and dead batteries in remotes for the ceiling fans were other minor issues

Flies, Filthy Hot Tub, and Lots of Labor
When we arrived, there was no way to access the property since the drive had 6”+ of snow. The neighbors were tired of having to help vacationers out but were nice enough to help shovel snow so we could park between their property & the rental. We trekked up the rest of the way, losing a beloved stuffed animal to the snow, & finally got inside. We discovered the floor behind the couches & window sill littered with dead flies, the hot tub was brown & had a beer can floating in it, & the fireplace in the living room hadn’t been cleaned out. We realized a few days in that the flue had been left open the whole time, which explained why the place was so cold. My kids & husband are allergic to cats and dust, which they felt the allergens every time the heat fired up out of the vents, & we had to put sheets on the couches b/c my daughter started breaking out w/hives/eczema flared up after sitting on them. That’s our fault though, knowing it was pet friendly. We were snowed in Wednesday & lost out on our skiing that day, meaning lift tickets & rentals, b/c property management couldn’t get anyone out to clear the drive. We worked for a long time to clear the drive, & finally got out Thurs. afternoon. My husband then bought de-icer since the bucket provided was empty. We left that for the next guest. No dumpster location noted so trash was double bagged & left in kitchen. No help or response from property mgmt at all except small refund for hot tub and being told they know about flies

Perfect ski retreat!
Met and exceeded our expectations. Had all the comforts of home with an amazing Mountain View. The design and layout are just what you're looking for in a ski retreat. Also, only about 15 minutes to the Angel Fire Ski resort. My daughter and I were the last in the hot tub and we saw a shooting star in that amazing NM night sky. It was truly a spectacular stay for us. Thank you!

Fantastic stay
Great place to stay! The house was the perfect size for our family (two adults and two kids). It has all the things you may need and more. A lot of board games and great internet speed. The entrance is a little steep so it can be challenging during snowy days. It is paved so no problem most of the time. The host communication is excellent! Stop looking and book this now. You will not regret it!

Beautiful scenery
We enjoyed our stay. Since it was Autumn, we were lucky enough to stay during peak Fall color change and the surrounding land scape was gorgeous. The house was comfortable and clean. There was an issue with the flies in the house, but the owners were wonderful to work with. They did try to rectify the problem as soon as they could. The exterminators just could not come right away. However, the owners made did try to make everything right by us. We would stay in this VRBO again because these things can happen, and the owners wanted to make things right. We have stayed in many VRBO places and not all want to help. Some could care less once they get your money. The place was well stocked with supplies. We used the trail into the National Forest everyday of our stay. The bedrooms were roomy and comfortable. The deck offered a nice location for a glass of wine. We even became acquainted with the next-door neighbors, (they are pottery artist). We spent time touring their studio and, of course, buying some beautiful items. No need to go into Taos to buy high end pottery. We would love to come back again.

Beautiful Views in Angel Fire
Conveniently located to Taos and Angel Fire, this place is great. Perfect for a family of 3-5. Well appointed and maintained. While there are no trails on the property, we enjoyed some nice exploring up the hill behind the house. Great for those seeking a little peace and quiet. When we come back, this is where we will stay! Thank you for a fun week!!

Great location, beautiful views, large & comfortable home.
We enjoyed staying here very much and felt right at home immediately. The views were incredible any time day or night. We enjoyed being outside of town, because it's a beautiful drive into Taos and we prefer the quiet of the mountains. The owner was easy to contact and very nice to work with.

Perfect place to get away!
We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the house so much, it was up in the woods and we could watch Elk in the afternoons through the large glass windows on the front. It was perfect for us, we hiked each day or went to Taos or Santa Fe but we would come back and relax each evening and grill steaks and enjoy the quietness. I would recommend this cabin to anyone and we are hoping to come back next year and make it a yearly vacation! We would give it 5 Stars! The owner Nathan was wonderful! Thank you so much for letting us enjoy, Debbie, Richard and Gail

Thank you to Nathan for his hospitality and for working with me on my long term get away! This place is perfect for peace and quiet, stargazing and just being away from it all. Comfortable and all the things you need to just be there are provided in this place. Nathan was pleasant and provided everything I needed. The "next door" neighbors at Enchanted Circle Pottery are also wonderful, pleasant and kind people and were graciously helpful in getting me acquainted with the area. Thanks to all.

This was perfectly situated between all the places we wanted to visit. Far enough from town for the peace, quite and privacy we were looking for, yet close enough to grab dinner or groceries without much fuss. All the comforts of home, including our pup.

If we ever come back to Taos we will definitely be staying at this location. We really enjoyed exploring the mountain behind us and getting to see animals in their natural habitat.

This place was perfect for us; my husband and I love to stay in places that have beautiful views, and this place did not disappoint. Taos was a great place for our 1 year anniversary, and all surrounding towns were quick and accessible! The shower in the main bathroom did clog pretty often, but would drain before the next shower was taken, so not a big deal at all. overall we loved the place and would no doubt spend another trip here!

Excellent Vacation Home
We enjoyed every bit of this vacation home. Perfectly situated between Angel Fire and Taos, away from any hustle and bustle but not too far away from restaurants and entertainment. Wildlife everywhere, we loved watching the prairie dogs and hummingbirds, as well as a few elk grazing in the valley across from the property. We had a blast hiking the mountain trail right behind the house and the neighbors at Enchanted Circle Pottery are amazing people with a beautiful studio and gallery. The house is warm and cozy and stocked full of entertaining things to do for everyone including our younger children. The view of the mountains and valley is amazing to see out of the big front windows or off of the deck. Cell service for us was an absolute no go, having wifi here helped alot with that, but also getting "un-plugged" is not always a bad thing in todays world. Will definitely recommend to others and will hopefully come back for another stay!
