Heaven in the mountains.

This house could not be more wonderful and charming. You come up a beautiful winding road heading north towards Arroyo Seco, passing humble abodes and million dollar properties and an old spanish cemetery decorated with lights and flowers. It is straight out of the painting of northern New Mexico. As you turn down the entrance, the view is stunning and the humble driveway hides charming Adobe with a huge empty field for a clear view of the Taos Mountains. The house is super cute with large bedrooms and a nice den that the kids loved. The kitchen is well equipped and the laundry room and storage are a big help for spring break. Our hosts where consistently checking in during the snow storm and could not have been more accommodating. I would totally recommend this house!

Snowboarder’s Paradise

We had the best time at this place. It is located in between the ski valley and Taos in a quiet area with great star views. The kitchen was great for cooking and we had many a good card game on the dining table. Slept four comfortably and our brother-in-law has a nice snooze on the futon. I loved having the office area to catch up on some work, and the wifi worked great. We watched movies using the surround sound system and it was quite the viewing experience. I could not recommend this place more for a family or a group of dedicated snowboarders. We enjoyed our morning walks over to Arroyo Seco to get some delicious sandwiches and burritos at the Taos Cow. Finally, Richard was an awesome host: communicative and friendly and worked with us on a couple of specific requests. This place has everything you will need for a trip to the Sangre de Cristo mountains!

About the host

Hosted by Richard Kruse

Welcome - and we invite you to experience the magic of Casa Buena Vista!!!

Why they chose this property

Casa Buena Vista is a dream come true!

It was more than 25 years ago when we first experienced Taos...and the magic lives on! And we now call it our companion home - a perfect getaway with 'all mod-cons.'

We love Taos given its beauty, culture and people - rich with art and steeped in history. Home to Taos Pueblo, the Village of Taos Ski Valley and a colorful array of surrounding communities like the charming Village of Arroyo Seco.

We chose to reside in the charming Village of Arroyo Seco given its small New Mexican village atmosphere - variety of restaurants, art galleries and specialty shops - and location [situated majestically below Taos Mountain (and the Taos Ski Valley Canyon) and conveniently between the town of Taos (9 mi) and Village of Taos Ski Valley (9 mi)]. And there are many folktales told in New Mexico about how some towns came to be. There are few, however, which can match the beauty of the tales surrounding the founding of the Village of Arroyo Seco.
