Our stay at this location was awesome! Just a few steps from the Wheeler Peak trailhead, it was the perfect place for our weekend hiking getaway. It is spacious and clean, with great amenities and amazing views. This was our home away from home while in Taos, and we are already thinking of the next time we can visit again.
