Our stay in the “Box”

We really enjoyed our stay despite not being able to ski on/off (due to closed trails & lift) in a very interesting house. Plenty of room for all of us.

Breathtaking view and perfect location for hiking

Kachina Ridge Dreams is truly one of the most spectacular places to stay in Taos Ski Valley! The modern design with large windows in the master bedroom and surrounding the sunroom made this a total emersion into nature. We loved waking up and watching a mama deer and her two babies trot through the back woods! Thank you for sharing this special place.

Beautiful home

We loved the home. There were a couple of issues with water not available. However, the property manager was very helpful and they made it right with us by a refund for a portion of our stay. I plan on staying here again and I am certain those issues will be resolved.

Beautiful location

The house is even better than the pictures. We have driven by many times and we’re excited to stay. It was clean and very comfortable. Two parents + 3 adult/teen children stayed comfortably. Only complaint was wifi did not work. Mobile reception is good up there so not a big problem. Also, it would be great if they added an outdoor patio and a hot tub would be amazing. The location is so pretty but not for the nervous driver. In the winter it would be a short walk to lift 4. In the summer it is a nice walk to Bavarian, Williams lake trailhead and a little longer but very doable walk to the base area.

Great stay right on the mountain in Taos

Our group of 5 thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay! We were fortunate to find the house still available for the long weekend after we had to change travel plans to ski in Taos vs. Whistler. Everything about the house was top notch, from the cleanliness, quality of appliances & beds and location. The walk do lift #4 was certainly doable, but given the sub-zero mornings during our stay, we opted for the easy 2 min drive up to the parking lot of lift #4 by the Bavarian. The only negative of the experience was the Bavarian not being open for inside seating due to COVID protocols. We did get to enjoy a beer and warm pretzel outside as a consolation! Check-in and communication with the property management company was a breeze and we would definitely stay again on a trip to Taos.

Awesome house, great location

We found this unique property to be even better than the photos and listing. Incredible views, and a short walk to The Bavarian and some of the most popular trailheads in the Ski Valley. A few potentially helpful notes: 1) The kitchen is very well stocked in terms of cooking utensils and appliances. We would have taken on more ambitious meals if we had known so much was available. 2) A 4x4 vehicle is required to reach this part of Taos Ski Valley year-round. There are plenty of locals in sedans on the hill in the summer, but we were glad to have a jeep with the steep grade and slick road. It would be impossible in winter. 3) The property was managed by a third-party service for our stay, called Turnkey. We prefer to work through individuals on VRBO and were surprised by this additional layer of paperwork and communication, so just a heads up.

Beautiful place and location

Absolutely stunning views! The small soaps, makeup removers, coffee, coffee filters, and other little details were very nice touches. Loved the photos in the stairwell of the construction process. The home was very clean at check-in. The kitchen was well stocked with the exception of regular water glasses. The toilet situation upstairs is odd - hall bath is connected to primary bath via the frosted glass shower. Makes both toilets inaccessible if someone is showering. There are thermostats all over the house, but it was difficult to control the temperature. No matter what you set them to, it would randomly change. It was 79 degrees in the primary bedroom one night, even though we set the thermostat to 62. Also, the listing said that there was an oxygen machine, but we never found it. There was a grill that we found the last day tucked under the side of the house. The host was responsive when we asked questions, and we didn't need those things or we would have just asked. I felt that there could have been a little book with notes about the house when we checked in to give a little more information. Overall, we loved our stay here and would come back in a heartbeat.

Incredible! Did Not Want to Leave

We LOVED this place. I have stayed in many rentals before and this was the most modern, most unique and cleanest by far. It actually looks as nice as the photos. The kitchen is lovely and brand new, the main bed is INCREDIBLE and rare to find a rental with such high quality linens, mattress and pillows. Not to mention the view from the bedroom window! From the dining room, we loved waving at the cars driving up to the trailhead / ski lift — everyone waved back because the architecture of the house is impossible to ignore. We walked to the Wheeler Peak trailhead for our hike in under 5 minutes. The only improvement recommendations would be to add a stereo system, hot tub and patio area. We wanted to be outside more to enjoy the stream and woods surrounding the property! We want to come back to Taos just to stay here again!

Beep…Beep…Beep

Let me start with saying this a very clean and wonderful residence. We did experience the beeping mentioned for the thermostat of the sunroom. It was 80 degrees at the time of our arrival. We opened the sliding glass doors and windows as instructed to cool the room. The room slowly cooled and the beeping persisted. The thermostat is locked, so trying to turn it off was not an option. We patiently waited as the temperature slowly lowered, but the beeping continued through the night. We assumed the temperature must be required to go below 70 to shut the alarm off. We went to bed early, since the alarm is in the living room. The management company was very responsive the next morning in turning it off( they did not have a key to the thermostat but pulled the locked cover off the wall). I would stay here again, but if beeping continues for more than a hour contact management immediately. Don’t let it damper your stay, like it did ours.

Very Unique Home!

This home is a very unique, beautiful home way up the mountainside of Taos Ski Valley! I personally, had a hard time with the altitude (it’s right at 10,300’) so if you’re coming from a lower altitude area then you might consider this! I can imagine this would be a perfect location for ski season but it’s a bit out of the way for summer vacationing. It was still a wonderful place to stay and such a different kind of experience than most places!

We had a great stay at this unique property. It was a quick trip down from Colorado for a big storm, and we absolutely loved being on the mountain, with all the natural light. Our only regret was that we didn't stay longer, or bring our partners (my son and I came down for a "guys' trip."

SPECTACULAR VIEWS

The view from the Master Bedroom is incredible. In fact, it's one of the best we've experienced anywhere. The property is great for a couple or a couple with kids but not very suitable for 2 adult couples due to the 3 twin beds in the second bedroom.
