Our family of five enjoyed our 4 night ski vacation in this warm & homey cabin with truly gorgeous snowy views of the woods & creek. Lots of character and personal touches! All windows have working shades for privacy. The listing is accurate, and the amenities and appliances were functioning well during our stay. We were able to cook many meals in the well stocked kitchen, use the laundry, hang up wet ski clothing to dry on the well placed hooks, and restfully enjoy a movie around the TV. Much of the cookware is old & worn but usable. Beds were quite firm as noted in another review. Two had some cushion top and were comfortable after the first night, but the third was just hard, so sleep wasn’t as sound in this bed. Towels, bedding, bathrooms and kitchen were very clean. Bedrooms seemed dusty around the edges and window sills had some dead flies. Could use a more regular deep clean for highest rating. We did not have good response with some questions sent to the property managers, Vacasa, prior to our arrival. They kept apologizing for high email volume and never did answer all of our questions. Overall, we would enjoy staying here again, and definitely would if a bit less dusty, cookware updated, and beds made more comfy.

We loved the view out of the back of the home. It is conveniently located near the slopes. The house was generally well provisioned. It had plenty of space for the 5 of us. The heat and the thermostat had a mind of it’s own. Cold the first night (69) no matter what we set the temp to, very hot the next day (83), cold the next night (68). We appreciated that the owner provided lots of fire wood, but the fireplace generated very little heat. We discovered space heaters on our own. The help line seemed to know nothing of them… Oven did not work, thankfully the cooktop did. All of us felt the mattresses were too hard and unconventional.

Scheduling issues screwed us over.
Scheduling issues screwed us over.
The property we had reserved for spring break was triple booked to 3 groups. I was informed 6 days before our trip that we couldn't stay there, but I was out of the country and couldn't be reached. My wife was not allowed to make any decisions or changes to help the situation. The day before we were to rent the home, I spend 2 1/2 hours on the phone trying to figure out the situation. Eventually, the corporate resolutions team informed me everything was now O.K. and that we were ready to go. I had this confirmation by email and text. It was wrong. At 8:10 am the next morning, 50 minutes before we were leaving Colorado, we were told the reservation was off. There were no comparable homes in the same location, and at that point the only home left that was close could no longer be booked for that day. Apparently, you can't book a rental the same day you want to stay there. We had to cancel our reservations at Taos Ski Valley because we had no place to stay. I don't blame the homeowner for any of this, but VRBO screwed up big time, lied to us about the situation, then couldn't provide the other home as a consolation. Needless to say, we were (and still are) furious! This is the 2nd time we have tried for a spring break trip in Taos and VRBO has messed it up twice. Thanks a lot!

We stayed a few nights at this property and used it for our base camp for a couple of days skiing at Taos Ski Valley. It is nice a close to the resort with out paying resort prices. We loved the river right off the back deck and the house layout. Fit out family of four with one adult friend very easily. The kitchen is stocked with everything needed to cook. I will stay here again if available.

Great property. Very near the base of the Ski Mountain. The house is extremely well fitted-out. The HVAC and fireplace controls are a tad wonky but not a reason to not stay there. I would book it again.

This place was perfect for us. The home just won us over from the moment we walked through the door. It is super comfortable with great light and really usable space. The kitchen was well equipped and the views of the creek and forest made for a wonderful place to hang out.
