Vacationing in New Mexico

We really enjoyed Owl's Nest. It was in a great location and it was very clean. The kitchen was nice, with a large refrigerator, stove, oven, and dishwasher. Also, it was well equipped. It had 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The linens were nice and clean, and the beds were very comfy. The outside had an enclosed patio, with a hot tub and beautiful views. Thank you. We would definitely recommend and stay again. There wasn't any A/C, but it wasn't needed when we were there.

Toas gem

The property was as advertised in appearance, was clean, was quiet, was convenient, and overall, very enjoyable. Even though the area was unseasonably hot, the evening breezes and the fans made the nights cool enough for comfortable sleeping. We would definitely return.

Good, Not Great

The property overall was good and met our expectations. Some of the furnishings were dated and the electronics (TV, DVD, etc) were below expectations. We found leftover food in the refrigerator on arrival but that was manageable (we left it as we found it). The location served us well and overall we enjoyed the experience. If given the choice we would likely stay again.

Beautiful home in a great location!

We had a wonderful time at Owl’s Nest. The home is beautiful and has everything you could need for a ski trip. It has great southwest vibes, a warm fireplace, and a clean hot tub to relax in at the end of the day. We hope to come back!

Great location for a family ski trip

The house was amazing and had everything we needed for a trip with the family. The kitchen was very well appointed with cookware, dinnerware, etc and we enjoyed the hot tub everynight. The location is north of Taos proper, so getting to/from the ski hill was fast and easy.

Adobe living

This was a nice little house well maintained and upkept well. I would recommend some ceiling fans in the living and bedrooms it does get hot in the late hours of the day. The internet was down when we stayed there but it wasn’t a big deal cause we had cell service. The exterior of this condo complex needs a little bit of grounds keeping the weeds and thing where growing up around the area and the local stray dogs came around every evening but they didn’t seem aggressive or anything. We enjoyed our stay.

Loved this place!

We loved this place! The beds were comfortable, the hot tub was great, the location was perfect. The kitchen was well stocked. Only downside- it was hard to find in the dark. Institutions stating that the parking spot in front was for the neighbor and to park behind would have been useful in the arrival instructions. Not a big deal, it just confused us. Also, the fireplace was not working, but the home was plenty warm. We would book owls nest again in a heartbeat!

Owl’s Nest Stay

This was a wonderful property. Everything was very accurate in the description. The kitchen had all the utensils needed exactly where you would expect them to be. The dining area was very comfortable for eating. Beds were all very firm & comfortable. Hot tub was great after a day of boarding at Taos Ski Valley. We also are very appreciative of the over 40” of powder that fell at the ski resort during our week long stay. We had fresh powder all 5 days we went boarding! The resort is about 25 minutes from condo & all the good restaurants in El Prado & Taos are 5 to 10 minutes away from condo.

Peaceful and beautiful property

The property was extremely clean and nice. It was so quiet there even though there were other condos (one right next door). The sunsets and sunrises were spectacular. We also loved the hot tub. After walking around all day, it felt great to get into the hot tub with a glass of wine. The only reason I gave 4 stars for cleanliness is because there were a lot of weeds on the back patio. We would definitely stay there again!!

Lovely condo in a great location

We had a wonderful visit in Taos and really enjoyed our stay. The location was great and a short drive into Taos and Arroyo Seco. The condo was clean and nice and quiet. We felt tranquility and peace. The condo is decorated so lovely and homey. The patio space is private and comfy. I would totally stay there again.
