Rating
The location was quiet and accessible to everything local. The patio was great. The colorful decor paired with the adobe construction was charming. The house temperature was pleasantly cool. We would definitely stay here again.
Very comfortable for 2 adult daughters and mom. Enjoyed all the art! Kitchen well-stocked. Great location - just a short drive to town.
We enjoyed our couple night stay at the Birdhouse. We were mostly out and about, but when “home” enjoyed all of the art and comfy furniture. We only had coffee, but it was obvious that the kitchen is well stocked with whatever you might possibly need to make a gourmet meal. We loved the peaceful surroundings and great views from every window. No AC, but we got lucky and the weather was not too hot and it cooled off enough in the evening. We probably would have turned the air on for sleeping, but managed OK without. Beautiful property and would book again if planning a trip to Taos.
This place is amazing. Anyone and everyone should stay here if your stopping in Taos. Feels like a south-west culture capsule! So inviting and homey. Super spacious and clean. 100% satisfaction
