Historic Home of Taos Artist -Peak Season Dates Available! Best Location

STVR permit# STR 2018-00012

There are many houses in Taos for visitors to choose from, but this one stands out for its authenticity and charm. Built by men from the Taos Pueblo in the 1940's for the artist Charles H. Reynolds and his wife Ruth, it is unique and very lovely.
The home is furnished with many of the original antiques, and the walls are hung with paintings by Reynolds and many of his contemporaries. You will feel as if you have stepped back in time, surrounded by thick adobe walls and hand carved beams in the ceilings. The fireplace crackles with pinion wood fires in the winter, scenting the air with its fragrance.
Modern amenities include a high efficiency heater, high speed internet, comfortable beds, and a well equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and microwave oven. There is a washer and dryer and supplies available for your convenience.
One bedroom has a queen bed, the small sunroom has a twin bed, and there is a sweet cubby with another twin bed. The bathroom is finished with Mexican tile work and has a tub and a shower. There is a large shady porch for dining in the summer, and a fenced courtyard for privacy.
All this, and only a short walk to great restaurants and galleries. Leave the car parked and stroll around the quiet neighborhood, or to the Taos Plaza for the Farmer's Market and live music.
The Taos Ale House and the very popular Michael's Kitchen are only a block away. This is a new listing so there are only a few reviews, but to see the larger side and it's reviews please go to VRBO #296467. For a large group of up to nine people the entire house can be rented.
Please take note, this house has a unique architecture which includes steps and low doorways in a couple of areas. There is signage to warn of this, but tall people must use caution.

The Perfect Spot

What a wonderful historic home with lots of character. We love how close it is to walk to the Plaza, museums and restaurants. Our dogs loved the 2 enclosed yards and our walks in the quiet streets in the neighborhood. We’ll certainly stay here again.

Fantastic place in Taos

Great location and authentic atmosphere in Taos. Property was bigger and better than the photos on VRBO. Large rooms, comfortable bed and furniture, and nice Taos ambiance. I skied at Taos Valley (about 30 min drive) while my wife had easy walking access to plaza, galleries and museums. Would definitely stay again!

Wonderful stay!

We very much enjoyed this historic Taos home for a 3 day stay. Walking distance to Bent Street and Plaza/short. The history of the house built in 1945 and its original owner artist Charles Reynolds was very interesting and we enjoyed seeing his artwork in the house. Perfect for 2 people!

The place was wonderful, centrally located (5 min walk to the plaza), clean, just as described. We arrived super late and the house manager was responsive and had the lights on for us when we arrived. Everything we needed was included. I would highly recommend this place for anyone travelling to the area. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Wonderfully Authentic

I greatly enjoyed staying at this historic and authentic Taos home while taking a workshop at the Mabel Dodge Luhan House. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable with many special touches. Very clean. Loved taking naps on the daybeds. Beautiful art. The owner was attentive, helpful and delightful. I highly recommend staying here, especially if you like being close to the action, but just far enough away to enjoy a peaceful, relaxing break. I would definitely stay here again.

Tremendous Taos

This is an old rustic home that speaks to a bygone era. A good location in town and in a nice neighborhood. Not a bad walk to a classic small town shopping area with a variety of shops ranging from mountain gear to local artists. If one is staying for more than a few days you will run out of clean dishes and silverware fairly quickly as the supply is limited. The owner/manager was quick to respond to messages, which was nice. They were very helpful at recommendations for local activities. This is a cozy place to stay located in a time capsule.

Peaceful Long Weekend Retreat

Fantasic long weekend getaway for our family. The home was quite spacious and offered plenty of space for our teen boys to kick back and lounge. Additionally, the two small yard spaces were great to hang out and allowed our pup to run around. The property was quiet and safe and we didn't experience any problems. We walked to restaurants, shops, and a nearby park. Great location for R&R! Bonus: Amazing hot water in the shower which was perfect after a long day skiing. We would stay here again.

Wonderful Getaway

We stayed at his charming property for four nights and thoroughly enjoyed our visit in Taos. The house itself has so much character and gives you a chance to experience living in a traditional New Mexico house. Furthermore, it's perfectly located in a quiet neighborhood yet super close to shops, restaurants, etc. Last but not least, Laura, the host, is absolutely wonderful. She is easy to reach and very accommodating. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Cozy, comfy gem!

This was a true find! We were looking to get away with our eight year old and found this place on Vrbo. The pictures drew us in with their charm and real life didn’t disappoint. Plenty of room for all three of us, warm, cozy and close to town. The little twin alcove with the curtains enchanted our daughter and she spent much time curled up there. Kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed. Laura was kind and attentive! A really lovely place to stay - we will be back!

Within walking distance to town

Property close to town in a quiet neighborhood. Well kept. TV really only provides streaming, no actual local TV and the controls were broken. Local park nice to walk in cause the construction projects in the town made driving quite the circus. Nice getaway but until the local construction is complete (we were told sometime 2025) we will no doubt wait to return.

College Friends

This little spot is just terrific. Really cozy on the rainy nights we had. Large living room. Which is always nice. Just a quick reminder, there is just one bathroom. It was perfect for old college roommates. It would also be just perfect for a small family. Laundry on site. Close to Michaels( easy walking distance). Host kind and caring. It’s a winner.

Huge property with character

My husband and I stayed here for three nights in May. The house was clean, comfortable, and quiet even though there were renters living in the adjacent unit. The house has been modernized, however, the style and furnishings reflect the tastes of the original mid-century owners. The interior is darker than the photos suggest. We appreciated the location as it was close to the plaza and nearby restaurants. As it is just off the main highway it is easy to drive to sites that are further afield.

Best spot in Taos

My daughter and I stayed at this property before, but on the A side. This time we booked the B side and we loved it as much as we did before. everything is well appointed and all our needs were met. The location is perfect for everything you would need to do or see around Taos and is convenient to longer day trips like Ghost Ranch and Santa Fe. The only thing I would suggest is stocking the shelves with more coffee cups. It was a wonderful 9 day stay and we will book again.

perfect original adobe in Taos

Great little house with a genuine Taos vibe! Conveniently located and even though it looks as if it may have been a larger house split into 2 rentals, it is very private. The living area was very large. Extremely easy check-in, we had no communication with owners while we were there as we didn't need anything. I would definitely stay here again.
