Sweet Cabin in the Woods

This little place is definitely off the beaten path, which is what we were looking for. We enjoyed cooking fish we caught and grilling steaks over a campfire. The kitchen is well-appointed and living area is comfortable. The beds and bathrooms are a bit more rustic than where we usually stay, but it was still comfortable. And Brooke was very responsive.

Great Cabin

We came to ski Sipapu and it was a perfect cabin with lots of natural light. We enjoyed the stay! Everything was so cute and easy to use! Make sure you take down entry code and internet password before you get there, as there is no cell service at the cabin!

Great house near Taos

We had a wonderful stay at this home just outside of Taos! The location was perfect—only about 12 minutes from town, making it easy to explore restaurants, shops, and local attractions. It also provided great access to Taos Ski Valley, Sipapu, and Angel Fire, which was a huge plus for our trip.The house itself was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The setting was peaceful and scenic, giving us a true getaway feel while still being close to all the action. The host was responsive and made the whole experience seamless.Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great stay near Taos!

Stunning views, amazing rest

Our cabin boasted scenic views with large windows. Our internet connection was surprisingly strong despite our remote location. Beds were extremely comfortable. We enjoyed close proximity to Walmart, and equal distance from Sipapu ski resort and Taos ski valley. The cabin was perfect for our family. Age range of kids 3 to 15. We would love to stay there again!

Great Second Stay

Stayed at the house back in 2022. Was back again in 2024. Had a great stay. Will stay again next time I’m back in Taos. Did I leave a blue and white bandana in the dryer?

Scenic cabin in the woods

Just what I was looking for. Secluded home at the end of the road. With beautiful Mountain views. Very peaceful and tranquil. No king size beds, but sleeps five adults comfortably. If you’re looking for peace and quiet and beautiful views, this is where to stay. I will definitely be back.

Beautiful Cabin in an Excellent Location

We had an amazing week at the cabin for our family ski trip. It's perfectly located between Taos and Sipapu Ski Lodge. The owner is extremely helpful and replied right away to any questions we had. I would not hesitate to stay here again, and I hope the cabin is available the next time we are planning a trip!

Lovely place for a visit to Taos and Carson National Forest

This cabin was perfect for our visit to the area. It's close enough to town for eating and activities but far away enough to feel like you are in nature. The place is very clean and well stocked. Having the bedrooms on 3 floors allowed for privacy and space from each other. Recommend this place!

Great location near Taos - beautiful cabin!

This home was perfect for our family of 4 (older kids), we were able to have the best of both worlds: easily explore Taos and ski at Sipapu. We like to cook our own meals and appreciated the well equipped kitchen. Thanks, we hope to be back next ski season!

A great place to escape the Texas heat!

Enjoyed everything about the property and accommodations. Only one complaint... there is a sulfur smell in the water. It probably needs checked out to make sure there is not a serious problem affecting water safety.

Cabin in the Pines

Our host communicated very well. We enjoyed the big glass windows and woodwork in the cabin. The porches would be great to sit on during spring, summer or fall! It is very conveniently located between Sipapu ski resort and Taos. Thanks again for our stay. Ford Family

Cozy winter getaway

Our first trip as a family to the snowy mountains. And Brooks Cottage could not have fit our needs more perfectly. Keeping an essential stock of pantry items, Plenty of space, a fireplace with firewood provided, comfortable beds, with updated power and water, just a great stay. We loved being surrounded by woods, blankets of snow, and privacy. Only about a 10 minute drive to Taos, and a 20 minute drive to Sipapu. We would happily stay here again.

Great View and Great Vacation spot

We had a fantastic time here!! We highly recommend, and cannot wait to come back. We came to NM to ski and to hike. The cabin is beautifully decorated,cozy,and, has a great view of the mountains.It is somewhat secluded ( which we loved) plenty of room to explore right outside the backyard. The host does a wonderful job of making sure the home is stocked with pots/ pans/ towels/ soaps/ linens , etc. I also had a very quick response from them when I had questions.We will be booking again soon :-)

Cozy cabin in Taos

We enjoyed our stay. It’s a great location, quiet, and as advertised. Beds were comfortable enough, though many were very small and best suited for small children. The temperature in the house was hit or miss, but space heaters helped. Basement beds were very cold, even with the space heater. Some of the amenities were old/expired (spices, bathroom products, dish sponges), but we made do. Short drive to town and Sipapu skiing. Would book again.
