Casita Truchas

The Casita is at an elevation of 8,000ft, and is perched above the high desert town of Taos. Enjoy the wonderful views of the Truchas Peaks, the Jemez Mountains, the sweep of the Taos valley, the town of Taos nestled in the middle. This vacation rental is cradled in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains to the East and North, so the private deck looks up to rocky El Salto Peak and a spur of the Enchanted Mountain, Pueblo Peak. Don't forget to take in the amazing, dramatic sunsets and 60 mile views encompassing the twinkling lights of Los Alamos.

Whether your outdoor interests are skiing (cross country or downhill), golf, fishing, hiking, white water rafting, horse back riding, snowmobiling or, mountain biking they can be found in the Taos area. If you tend more towards contemplation, reading, walking or spiritual pursuits Casita Truchas is the perfect vacation spot for you. Or if you are looking for shops, galleries (over 80!) museums, art festivals, Native American ceremonials and history - it's all here.

Being 850 square feet, this vacation rental is about 4 times the size of an average Bed & Breakfast room. And it is less than half the price of a deluxe Bed & Breakfast room, and a third the price of one with a private Hot Tub! The Casita is situated a stones throw from the main house - Casa Truchas - both properties are very private and separate from one another. Both have private driveways and nothing over looks either property.
