What a gorgeous place to stay! The property had all that was promised in the listing, and was a great home base for our group trip. Sanjay was communicative and pleasant, and his assistant Bettina was present for our arrival to give a short tour - they even had some fresh fruit ready for us. I would certainly stay here again! Thanks!

We had a great stay!

Blue Bird Farm is a wonderful spacious house with lots of coziness and conveniences. Sanjay filled his house with an eclectic mix of comfortable furniture, natural fiber textiles and thoughtful details to make your stay memorable. Kitchen was fully equipped for any kind of cooking you could think of, lots of small appliances and gadgets plus two full size fridge/freezer combos. The hot tub was hot and clean, perfect for starry night soaks. Wi-Fi, Roku, TV and Bose speakers all worked well. Master suite plus 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, kitchen, dining and living room on main level. 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a cozy sitting room upstairs. Absolutely only note is the stairs to the upstairs are steep so if bringing anyone with balance issues plan for them to stay on main level of house. Quiet location close to Taos and a short drive to the ski valley. Perfect location. Loved our stay and are planning to return for another stay.

The size of the house was great. 5 couples, five bedrooms. Beds were comfortable. Clean and well stocked. Decent location for the activities planned. First issue encountered was access. This was the first property that required a tour by an assistant. Have always received a text/email day before or morning of with code for door or lock box. Had to estimate our time of arrival for the tour. One of the couples contacted property owner around 3pm to see about getting into house between 4-4:30. Three more couples showed up around 5pm with groceries. Mind you, we had been traveling 2500 miles by planes and cars for 14hrs. The assistant showed up after 5pm and proceeded to sit in her car. We had unloaded our luggage and groceries to the patio by the door and just wanted to get stuff in fridge. Finally someone had to go out to driveway and get her attention to let us into house. She came out of car complaining that we could only park in area that held four cars. We had carefully opened a gate and parked one vehicle on interior drive. 5 couples, 5 cars. We were then told we were not supposed to be there until 5:30pm, website states check in between 4-4:30. She then gathered all of us by door to instruct us on how to push buttons to open lock. We had to note code in our phones. Once entering the house she informed us she would be giving all of us a tour. We sent one couple on tour and the rest of us moved luggage to rooms and groceries to fridge, which she just turned up the temperature on. We all were polite, but declined to all take the tour. We asked about air conditioning. It was 84 outside and it felt like 95 inside. She said air was only upstairs, but had never had a complaint She said there were fans for downstairs. Found one ceiling fan in master, was afraid it might fall. There was one small window in kitchen and one in guest bed. One door had a screen that didn't work, so we chose to open doors and deal with flies and moths to try can cool downstairs after dark. Purchased fans at Walmart. Upstairs was fine. Received a condescending email from the owner stating we were too metropolitan to appreciate the assistants tour. So, rude city folk. This email with input only from his assistant. DON"T expect water in the morning. After one shower the taps run dry. Irrigation runs at 6am and it depletes the well. Will look for other property for future trips.
