The pictures are very deceiving. The location of the VRBO was not what I expected. It's located in a neighborhood next to barking dogs. I was wanting something more secluded and out of town. Taos is not the place to stay. Red River and Taos Ski valley was what I was expecting. My bad for not doing a better job of researching the area.

Convenient location

The house is beautiful. The decor design yard and fence are beautiful. Upon check in, I was asked about the cleanliness of the place, and I gave it a five. The next day, I noticed some minor things like the fans we're dusty in the bathroom. There looks like there was some prior water damage that maybe some mildew had been growing there, so it smelled a little musty. The accommodations for the kitchen were great, and so was the laundry availability. Some other visitors commented on barking dogs and I did have this experience in the middle of the night early morning hours on a couple of the nights, although temperatures outside were very cold so I don't know why anyone would leave there.Pets out in those conditions. There was snow, but it was not difficult to navigate. They salt the streets, so travel was fairly easy. There was a lot of construction i'm one of the main thoroughfares through town.So it was a little confusing on, actually getting to the place. Overall, it was comfortable private and exactly what I was looking for.

Beautiful Adobe House

Nicely decorated adobe house and completely equipped kitchen. Only a few problems- the neighbors have a little dog that barks continually. Nothing the owners can do but good to know ahead of time. Keeping the windows closed helps. And there is a high step into the kitchen that was not mentioned in the listing. Also a very awkward and difficult entry system. We hate that these problems exist because it is a beautiful house.

Taos stay

We really enjoyed our stay at this property! It was fully stocked with everything we needed! The beds were very comfy along with a short drive to town. The only down side would be the neighbors dogs barked quite a few times during the early hours of the day! Overall a wonderful stay

Property was very nice and clean, however the private residence next door had a dog that barked all night. Very disturbing and did not sleep due to the constant barking. Would not recommend this to anyone.

Witt Road Rocks

We have have been coming to Taos for extended ski vacations for about 10 years and always stayed at the same location in town close to the plaza. Unfortunately our home away from home was sold and we needed to find another place this year. We searched long and hard and finally settled on the Witt Road property with some trepidation as it was it little farther from the plaza/galleries/restaurants than than what we were used to. However our concerns were for naught. The Witt Road home was superb in every respect. We were especially impressed with the quality of the kitchen and the comfortable furniture. We felt completely at home.

Close to town, Modern, Clean

This house is quiet, private, & a little over a mile to Taos Plaza. It’s an older Adobe structure which has been completely renovated in minimalist, modern, Southwestern style. The inside of the house is spacious, comfortable, & convenient to everything in Taos. Great for couples or a girls’ week out. Not suitable for families b/c the yard is bare- plenty of space to park, however.
