Great home and space that worked well for our group. Private and quiet with several hangout spaces. Responsive host. Comfortable beds, even the beds in the kid's room.

This was our second stay at Shady Nook, and it was fantastic! We enjoyed the house, its amenities (like the hot tub and well-stocked reading nook), the large fenced backyard, and its location (secluded but still near everything). It was a great return vacation and we look forward to staying here again in future!

Our family of 2 adults and 5 kids loved staying at Shady Nook Mesa. The house was great and the kids loved the hot tub and all the board games at the house. It's close eough to the north end of Taos to be an easy drive into town on paved roads except for a short stretch on Eototo. We booked last minute and got prompt answers when asking about check-in instructions just minutes after we booked the house. Would highly recommend.
