Casa de Legado Private Setting with Panoramic Mountain Views, Private Hot Tub

Mesa - Blueberry Hill - 7 miles to Taos village, 16 miles to Taos Ski Valley with 1 stop light only

Nestled on a Blueberry Hill "ridge" with incomparable 360 degree views, Casa de Legado is a private serene sanctuary, centrally located between Taos Village and Taos Ski Valley. Guests enjoy the ease of getting to and from all corners of Taos activities and sights with very little traffic.

Formerly the home of a well-known Taos artist, Casa de Legado abounds with southwest charm and ambiance. Enjoy the rich experience of romantic adobe arches, Saltillo tile floors, two traditional hand crafted wood burning kiva fireplaces and authentic viga ceilings throughout.

Central in the floor plan is the sunken living room with large flat screen satellite TV and custom designed, hand crafted wood burning kiva fireplace. Please note the property does not have cable or satellite TV as all of the TV's are smart TV's with Roku. All rooms branch out from there including the large and grand "bonus" sun room with cast iron pot belly fireplace and 3 floor to ceiling window walls creating a bright and uplifting grandeur. The sun room, furnished with a large comfy sofa, round table & chairs for dining, games, computers and morning coffee, provides grand views with all activities.

In addition to the two living areas and 360 panoramic mountain views, is the added amenity of a deck with views. The deck overlooks a large hot tub for "starry, starry nights", like most folks have never seen, thus adding a most rare and relaxing visual experience. The traditional "chiminea" (southwest clay pot fireplace) adds evening warmth and ambiance. Yes! Taos really has delightfully cool mountain air evenings throughout summer, all for guest enjoyment.

The fully furnished upscale kitchen / dining area has views through the sunken living room to the kiva fireplace for added dining ambiance. Adjoining the dining area is an enclosed patio with gas grill for barbecue pleasure.

The two bedrooms enjoy a double sound barrier with two back to back bathrooms located between them.

Casa de Legado is all about vacation comfort and pleasure. Your group will "Thank You" for finding this treasure.

There is a security camera installed above the front door capturing the driveway.

First time we were in the hot tub was at night so did not notice until the next morning that there is a webcam pointed directly at the hot tub. That is the only web camera on the exterior of the property so it felt creepy. It would’ve been less so if it was disclosed beforehand. I like to give the benefit of the doubt that the owners simply have concerns about people damaging or misusing the tub. But not disclosing makes it unethical in my opinion. We’ve stayed at other short term rentals in the area that everything except the hot tub had cameras and those cameras were fully disclosed from the beginning.

Nice home, close to Taos, we'll furnished and spacious. Dark skies made it possible to see the Milky Way from the hot tub. Highly recommend!

Over all the house is nice and clean, but on our second day we discovered a hidden camera that is not disclosed to renters looking at the “Private” Hot Tub. After contacting the caretaker and informing them of VRBO policy of disclosing cameras facing hot tubs we were told it was for the house security but it had also been turned off since we arrived!!!! Ya right I informed them that the hidden camera is creepy and felt like a pervert is watching the hot tub. Mind you that the camera isn’t facing the outdoor shed or patio that had no lights working on it. It is just facing the hot tub. The ad doesn’t disclose the camera and none of the paperwork in the house disclosed the camera Facing the so called Private HOT Tub!!!! We did file a complaint with VRBO with pictures. We felt like if the perverts would want to watch a hot tub what else are they watching with cameras!!! Renters Beware!!!!!

Beautiful home, lots of space inddors and out. Lots of windows for natural light and views. Clean and well stocked with essentials. Great communication. Plenty of parking, if needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will look forward to returning to Taos again.

This house was much nicer in person than in the pics. I was worried that since you can have animals in this property it might not be pleasant smelling however it was great. The only thing i wished it had was an enclosed fence. I forgot my dogs lead so she was confined to the patio or me walking her on a leash. If you can not relax here than you can not relax anywhere!

This was not a pleasant stay. Not clean, old towels. Pans for cooking should be replaced. We had to purchase a pan to cook. What I paid a night, I should have just slept in a tent.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Casa de Legado (Legacy House) was wonderful. We stayed at the house for 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. The kitchen was well appointed. We prepared several meals and everything you need for basic cooking is provided. The living room was comfortable and cozy, especially while watching the snow fall in the courtyard. The family room area was perfect for playing cards and gazing at the snow. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were perfect for the stay. The only thing I was not fond of was the number of steps in the house. Down 2 steps to the living room from the front door. Up 2 steps to the kitchen. Up one step to the family room. Down 1 step to the bedrooms. Not my taste, but didn't affect our overall enjoyment of the property.

My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend with our dog to celebrate our anniversary. The house was beautiful. Very nice touches throughout the house, the decor was great. Neighborhood is quiet and very accessible. About a 10 to 15 min drive to town. Hot tub was splendid. This is a big space and can fit a lot of people. WiFi worked great and the TV was excellent. Overall we really enjoyed our stay but did notice a few areas of improvement. We weren't provided with any lighters or firestarters to use the fireplace. The listing mentioned a closed in patio but it looks like the gates have been removed. The caretaker advised us that there was a baby gate on site but we weren't able to find it. We were told to use chairs to block off the patio. It snowed while we were here and a few leaks popped up. The caretaker was disappointed to hear this as the roof was recently fixed. It was just one leak at first over the fireplace but then a few more started in the sun room. Nothing serious, but had we spent more time at the house the dripping sound would have been more of an issue. We were also disappointed in the toiletries. For the price per night we expected a bit more than dollar store products. The closet in the master smelled really weird so we couldn't unpack our clothes. The sun room was cold and the space heater never stopped smelling. The rest of the house was warm. A few things needed upkeep here and there but still an enjoyable stay!

My wife and I were looking forward to a relaxing three week vacation to Taos to celebrate our anniversary. After a few days we noticed a dead animal like smell coming from the master bathroom, soon to morph into a raw sewage smell. It was horrible enough that we had to seal off the master bedroom from the rest of the house and spent the rest of our time in the smaller second bedroom. The initial problem was addressed by replacing the toilet seal and servicing the septic system, but the smell still continued. I'm not sure what, if any, service was performed after we left. The house itself has a nice layout and is comfortable for the most part but it has several problems. When we first arrived we noticed that the "sun room" was extremely warm, heating the whole house to an uncomfortable degree. We notified Terra, the caretaker. She was a great help throughout. She got us some curtains for the sun room windows (there were none there) and that helped a little with the heat. We tried to open the windows in the room but several of them did not work. This would be a great room in the winter, but as mentioned in an earlier review, it was much too warm in the summer. The room now has a day bed, that is not shown in the listing, that makes it feel a little cramped. The kitchen was well stocked with essentials (contrary to an earlier review) but there is very little pantry space and the condensation from the ice maker fills the refrigerator with water. We enjoyed the two outdoor areas but the deck by the hot tub did not have the dining table as pictured in the listing. In addition neither of the large outdoor table umbrellas were functional. We feel that this could be a nice property but not until the maintenance problems have been addressed.

We unfortunately had to change houses, and Terra managed to arraign the transfer in MINUTES! The new house was adorable. She made the transition seamless and comfortable. I can't say enough about her and Premier Properties. Any time you are in Taos, make your arraignments through her.you won't regret it. Thanks again Terra for making our stay so wonderful

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 4 adults shared the 2 bedrooms f0r 4 nights. Comfortable rooms, well-stocked kitchen, very responsive local caretaker, and clean hot tub. Somewhat hard to find in the dark, but GPS worked fine. The house could benefit from more lighting on the path to the hot tub.

The boiler was broken so we were cold for a few days before we realized it. The property manager was extremely responsive and sent a plumber out immediately. We have already booked again for next year!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Excellent location and views, but overall the property gives a feeling of being somewhat neglected. For instance, the beautiful gates shown in the property photos--front gate is completely missing and "sunrise gate" to a side patio is barely hanging by a single screw. One of the floor to ceiling sunroom windows was well ajar on our arrival and could not be closed with the crank mechanism. That was because the lever to open and close the window was not attached to the window frame. I was able to manually close it from the outside and noted significant rot in all of the sunroom window frames. The beautiful outdoor paths shown in the photos are totally overgrown and in need of serious weeding/clean-up. Shower head in the second bath has been repaired with a combination of plastic wrap and strapping tape; it works, but not a good look. As noted by a prior reviewer, the curtains in the sunroom are in need of some major hemming to eliminate the current unkempt appearance. I have the impression the stove in the sunroom is intended for decoration only; the couch and daybed (daybed not pictured in property description) are far too close to the stove to consider lighting a fire. Nice furnishings and amenities throughout, but some of these current "minor" issues need to be addressed pronto or this property is going to rapidly decline. That would be a shame because it has a lot to offer; it's a good property with the opportunity to be great (a true "Premiere Property") with some much-needed care.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Except for a couple of minor issues, which did not warrant any attention during our stay, this was our favorite location of any of our many, many trips to Taos. The house had everything we needed, was nicely decorated and beautifully located. The mattress on the bed in the master was obviously old, was kind of creaky and not very supportive. The curtains in the sunroom are a bit haphazard and are not up to the decorative standards of the rest of the house, and one of the electrical outlets in the kitchen stopped working, but we were able to work around it. But none of these things affected our very pleasant stay, and we look forward to coming back one day.

This place is beautiful & the location was great. Very close to Taos & still far enough away to get a great secluded vibe. I would recommend to bring everything you need, toiletries & kitchen. If you forgot soap, lotion, hair dryer, etc… not going to be here so requires you to be diligent in your packing compared to other places I have rented which hosts would generally have a few little things in those cases. Overall great stay.
