Casa Grande In Downtown Taos
About this house rental
Located in Taos, this lovely house for $266 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. This newly remodeled three bedroom home has it all! Tiled kitchen with new appliances is well equipped and supplied for cooking at home. I always like to say if I don't have it, you won't need it! There is a separate dining room with mountain views. The living room is large-nicely furnished and comfortable. There is a fireplace and plenty of fragrant cedar firewood provided. There are three bedrooms. Front bedroom has a queen, middle bedroom has a double and the master bedroom has a king. Each bedroom has closet space and a dresser . I provide two cozy robes in each bedroom too for lazy mornings or comfy evenings. There are two tiled full baths with soaps, shampoo/conditioner and hair dryer provided. This home was totally remodeled in early 2016. It was quite an undertaking! All walls and kitchen cabinets were painted a warm cream. All new operable screened windows and stained trim. Tongue and groove ceilings (I stained 1300 feet of tongue and groove. Whew!) New trim tile in the blue bathroom and completely new mango bathroom. Then the fun part, the furnishing and decorating! I furnish with my antiques and treasures from local consignment stores and estate sales. All my bedding and towels are from my favorite Company Store catalogue so all bright colors and high quality. I love original Taos art so you will find it in every room. I have a penchant for whimsy and it's here and there. I am often asked about my decorating style- I call it "Melissiana". Actually my plumber said it best when he said, "Nothing you do makes any sense, but when you are done, it all works!" This home is located on a quiet one block dead end street. The only sounds you hear are birds, wind chimes and the church bells from Our Lady of Guadalupe a block away. There is private on site parking. A walled courtyard with big trees, lilacs offer outdoor living spaces for two and four legged guests. I was a professional landscaper in California before I moved to Taos and it is still my passion. In ground flowering plants as well as boxes decorated by me and big ceramic pots full of color are everywhere. There are two outdoor living areas in front. To the left of the front gate there is a vintage glider and to the right a table and six comfortable chairs as well as a large BBQ grill. There is an additional outdoor living area off the master bedroom in the back. As with all ten of my properties Casa Grande is pet friendly. This home is actually part of a fourplex compound. I live in one of the little casitas so am always available to answer any questions. There are also two additional casitas that I rent for short term visits. Casa azul (Vrbo 797997) And Casa Verde (Vrbo 920144). Each have living/dining, tiled baths and queen bedrooms. Each also have private walled courtyards. Often guests rent the compound for large groups. I can sleep up to ten guests on this property.. There is a central laundry room available for all my guests and on site parking. Casa Grande is located on a quiet, one block dead end street and is only three blocks from Taos Plaza. This downtown compound was featured on the 2017 Taos Home & Garden Tour where on a Saturday in August 500 tour goers had a chance to check out my style. Too much fun!!! If this home is booked for your dates please look at Vrbo 482097 another of my downtown homes which also offers three bedrooms and two baths.

We stayed for 4 nights while we skied with our kids. Very cute, cozy, and nicely located. College kid walked up to the plaza for shopping on her own, enjoying the local shops during a day off. We love Taos and this is a great place to stay.

The property was clean but the furniture was outdated and was not even comfortable that we could even sit on. There was only one T.V throughout the home and it was only one small one that we could not even enjoy it for all of us to see it or even have a place for us to sit. There was no water pressure in the other bath when the other bath was being used.

We met my daughter and her boyfriend in Taos for the balloon festival. We had a great time. Property is close to everything in town. We walked most places. It has a lovely yard but the weather was a little nippy to use. There are 3 bedrooms but six people might be a squeeze. Perfect for 4. We cooked in both nights. Well stocked kitchen. I would stay again. Captures the flavor of the Southwest.

Casa grande was beautiful. The living space was beautifully appointed. Everything was very clean. Casa Grande is loaded with antiques and beautiful art work. The bedrooms and beds were perfect. Bathrooms were nice. There was was a full kitchen with everything necessary for preparing a complete dinner or entertaining. Wonderful tile work on the kitchen island and counters. The entire unit couldn’t have been better. Melissa was a great host. The check-in process was easy. The neighborhood was very nice. Casa Grande is walking distance to Taos Center. The village is beautiful with many wonderful galleries, and great restaurants to dine.
We had four adults in our party staying at Casa Grande. We all enjoyed our stay. We plan to return. Thank you Melissa.

Beautiful, roomy, comfortable--this lovely casita has everything! Close to the plaza but quiet. Front patio, apricot trees, back patio with door to one of the bedrooms. We wanted to move in permanently. We've stayed in many places in Taos--this is the ONE.Thank you so much.

It was the perfect home for my friends and I as we were all coming in from out of town. The beds were comfy, the living room and kitchen were really comfortable to hang out and eat in, and we were able to walk right downtown from the house. There isn’t a/c but the ceiling fans and windows at night made it comfortable.

This was our second visit to Casa Grande, this time later in the spring. Not only was the weather exquisit, but as always the house was perfect. Very comfortable for our family which included our fur babies. The host is incredibly gracious, and very quick with all communication. The house was spotless and ready for us when we drove into town. This was huge because we drove straight through from Texas, which was 11.5 hours. Don't hesitate to stay here at Casa Grande. You won't regret it. Cheers!

Convenient location close to Plaza; accommodations as advertised. Host responsive to question about television operation. Kitchen knives were supplied but needed sharpening and both overhead stove lights were out.

This is a spacious and clean property. The bedrooms are cozy and each bed has a heated mattress pad on it which is nice for chilly nights in Taos. One thing that would be helpful is better cookware. We like to cook once a day while on vacation and wished the pans were in better shape. Also, there is a communal washer and dryer behind one of the kitchen walls. The owner mentions there is a "central laundry room available", but I had no idea it was behind the kitchen in this particular unit and was surprised to hear someone in there one morning.

My fiancé and I stayed here with our dogs. Excellent house with a lot of space. Great location and walkable to the plaza. We would definitely stay there again! If you have pets make sure you have cash for the pet fee :)

What an amazing home, charming, cozy, and everything provided...instructions were ideal, close to the town center, and a spectacular direct view of the snow-capped mountain peak viewable from the dining room. Can't imagine staying anywhere else in the future on another visit.

It was a cozy spot for our party of 6. We had everything we needed, including puzzles to put together after kids were in bed. It was easily walkable to downtown.

The owner of the property was responsive and helpful. I accidentally left my hearing aids there, and she went to the trouble to mail them back to me. The home was near the Taos plaza in a great location!

If the Casita was clean it would have been a much nicer experience.

We had a great weekend stay. 3-4 block walk to the plaza, nicely furnished kitchen, good sized living/dining area for gathering, comfortable bedrooms, showers had good pressure & hot water. Possibly the quietest place I’ve stayed, both indoors and outside in the private courtyard. Nice rental.

Quiet neighborhood near town square (easy walking distance). Delightful fireplace. Beds had heated mattress pads - very much needed!
