Ron was kind and very good with the directions. The place is off beaten path so it was helpful. He was thoughtful to our groups needs. The home met our expectations for our small wedding event we had. The views are amazing!

Crows Nest Vacation

The property was just as described. The host met us at check-in and provided a short summary of the property. The property was very unique with magnificent views and close to the Taos Ski Resort. We will definitely stay here again.

Relaxing getaway

Great views, beautiful scenery and a great location. We loved our stay at the Crow's Nest. The sunsets, stars and a bonus comet during our stay were easily viewed from one of the many patios. Such a beautiful yard as well. Morning glories greeted us each day along with deer and birds. We would rent again in a heartbeat.

Best view in the area

Visted for a Taos ski trip. Plenty of room in the house and outfitted very well. Best hot tub view in the area by far. Ron made sure we got into the house and had everything we needed for a great stay. Will definitely return again.

CROWS NEST

The pictures do not do this property justice; it is a short and easy drive the ski area and and INCREDIBLE house; perfect for my 30th. Easy to find with the directions that are on the listing and the host is very friendly and communicative. Everyone loved it; very comfortable.

Amazing House, Gorgeous Views

Amazing House, Gorgeous Views. Ron was very responsive when we had to contact him about a plumbing issue we experienced. He came over and fixed the problem straightaway. The house is amazing and well stocked. We did have a minor issue with the showers not having hot water (sometimes they did, sometimes they didn't) otherwise a lovely experience in Taos. We made ample use of the hot tub and table tennis. Thank you, Ron, for sharing your home with us.

Outstanding

You cannot ask for a better house and owner. The property is outstandingly beautiful, the house is spacious, clean, and set up for lots of fun and relaxation. The hot tub in the backyard has breathtaking views, particularly at sunset with unfettered views of yellow, organge and pink skies at dusk. The owner is absolutely all time - very friendly, helpful and responsive. If visiting during winter months for skiing, I would highly recommend using a car with 4-wheel drive, as some of the roads can be steep and slick with snow/ice. The proximity to Taos Ski Valley is great - about a 10-15 minute drive from both the mountain and the town of Taos for dinner/nightlife. I would highly recommend this house to anyone looking to spend some time with freinds or family. Would return for sure.
