About this property

Coyote Mountain cabin retreat, serene exclusive privacy in the tall pines

Arroyo Seco - Valdez Valley - 9 Miles to Taos Ski Valley 10 Miles to Taos Village
(5 NIGHT MINIMUM DURING WINTER MONTHS)

A jewel in the woods and privately nestled one mile above the Rio Hondo Valley with spectacular views in all directions; mountains to the north and east, the Taos Valley to the south and west. Coyote Mountain retreat, meticulously custom designed and built, is owned by an L.A. TV producer and is ideal as a writing retreat or honeymoon getaway.

Unusual attention has been given to detail from unique ash cabinets and micaceous mud walls to antique light fixtures and mission oak furniture. French doors to the covered porch on the south and the brick patio on the north invite you to extend your living space out into nature.

A summer bonus in the owner's words: "We have a portable fan that has never used. I have to say, up here at 8000 feet, We've yet to miss any cooling device in 12 years."

This very special Taos luxury cabin speaks to the most discriminating of guests looking for a total peaceful, serene getaway with absolutely no intrusion from the outside world. The locked gate 1 mile below the property insures that not even a car will drive past your retreat!

Sleeping Arrangements:
1 Bedroom on ground floor with a double bed
2nd floor "look out" room has a double fold down leather sofa

4x4 required in winter and recommended spring, fall and summer
There is a mile-long dirt access road – a couple of steep parts, requiring reliable low gear going up, and solid brakes and vigilance going down.

Escape from civilization
This is a 5-star property! The house is gorgeous, the grounds are beautiful and private and peaceful. Forever sky and views over the valley. Right out the door there’s a 1-hour hike up the mountain [past the A-frame]. And dog-friendly! We stayed during record heat, wildfires, and closed national forests – and this was exactly the spur-of-the-moment getaway we were hoping for! There is the mile-long dirt access road – a couple of steep parts, requiring reliable low gear going up, and solid brakes and vigilance going down – we didn’t use the Tacoma’s 4-wheel, but thankfully it wasn’t rainy or winter! The bed *is* only a double, and, as others have said, it’s hard. No microwave as promised [it’s now removed from the amenity list]. No al fresco dining per the enticing pictures [for our stay, anyway, the portal being used as storage]. No soft chairs or sofa [well, the upstairs futon, but too hot up there during our stay, and we didn’t really miss inside furniture during summer]. The above notwithstanding, these 4 nights were perfect for the 2 of us + dogs. Daily morning hikes up the mountain, all breakfasts and dinners cooked in [coffeepots above the refrigerator], cooling via judicious window/door openings. Allowed excursions during national forest closures: John Dunn Bridge access to Rio Grande, Wild Rivers Recreational Area visitors center and access to Rio Grande, Taos Ski Valley hiking trails. And we loved the beauty and serenity of Coyote Mountain so much, this escape from civilization, that we bypassed Taos entirely!
