Accurate description, lovely stay.

Posted Nov. 3, 2024 on HomeAway
We had an excellent time staying here. The owner lives onsite, but you’d never know it. The property is as it’s described in the listing. We brought our two dogs and they enjoyed the fenced-in yard. Plenty of pots, pans, and utensils allowed us to cook all our meals at the home. Absolutely beautiful area of New Mexico. Would highly recommend.

Serene New Mexico living

Posted Oct. 18, 2024 on HomeAway
Jaqui has done a great job making this little home warm and cozy. We enjoyed the quiet, bucolic setting and the spacious, homey furnishings. Beds and linens were comfortable, everything was clean and well-maintained. We were glad to stay and will return next time!

Quiet and comfortable mountain getaway

Posted Oct. 8, 2024 on HomeAway
We stayed here with our dog for four nights during the Fall color season. It was very comfortable and pleasant. The house was well stocked with many essentials and more. The Wi-Fi worked well - we could stream HD movies. The location is nice near Eagle Nest Lake, Cimarron Canyon and a short drive away from Red River or Taos / Rio Grande Gorge. Fuel and groceries are readily available in Angel Fire. There are many trails in the vicinity with difficulty ratings from easy to more challenging. On and near the property itself we could see wildlife such as deer, hawks and prairie dogs. We would definitely recommend this place.

I am happy the wild life showed itself. I work to keep it natural, organic and poison free.

Looking forward to going and watching the birds and animal, in October. Looking forward to going haven’t been to Eagles Nest since a child when I got to with my parents. In the 1950’s

Great stay for year four

Posted Sep. 10, 2024 on HomeAway
This was our fourth year staying at the Black Lake Mountain Retreat. It is perfect for a long stay with dogs. The back yard is fenced, and there are plenty of places to walk your friends. The house is well equipped with everything you need to cook meals. Of course the scenery is beautiful, the hummingbirds plentiful, not to mention the hawk, bluebirds and many others we will be back!

Delightful time in Black Lake

Posted Jul. 17, 2024 on HomeAway
My wife and I travel often. We are seniors who have traveled now for 47 years seeing much of the world. We have used VRBO homes now for 35+ years. Our recent VRBO experience was terrific. Everything about our 6 week stay in this home was good. The home itself is an older duplex home located in a country community called Black Lake. Black Lake is 7 miles from Angel Fire where we enjoy golf, hiking and various social activities. Over our six weeks, our location was near Taos, Eagles Nest, Reds River, Espanola & Santa Fe which allowed easy day drip adventures. The home is tastefully decorated with nice furniture, spacious comfortable bedrooms (2) and bath rooms. The owner lives in the duplex home next door. Here name is Jacqui. She was never intrusive. She was always available to help with any questions we had. Jacqui is also an accomplished artist. Several of Jacqui's paintings were vibrantly presented throughout our home. One of my family roles is to cook for us as we travel. The kitchen was spacious with everything we needed. Rather than go on about everything we loved about Jacqui's home, I end my review with this statement. We enjoyed 6 weeks this past trip at Jacqui's home. We will definitely go back to stay with her next summer. Next time we intend to rent Jacqui's home for 8 weeks.

Amazing Location

Posted May 26, 2024 on HomeAway
The place was perfect for my dad, brother and I to go fishing at Eagle Nest. We took a beautiful drive to Red River as well. The place has everything you could ask for. Highly recommended.

Family Vacation

Posted Mar. 16, 2024 on HomeAway
We had a great time staying here! House had everything we needed and it was a huge bonus to be able to bring our dogs. We went hiking in the snow and sledding a ton. The location is great being just a bit out of the town proper, super quiet and lovely scenery. I enjoyed watching the cows behind the house and listening to the rooster. Great place for a family to stay, we will definitely be back!

Great place for an easy getaway

Posted Feb. 14, 2024 on HomeAway
Great place. If you are looking for a easy going low maintenance stay this is your place. Backyard doesn’t have a lot of space but was great for letting dogs out between skiing. Not the fanciest place but has everything anyone would need. Owner was right next door for any needs. Her art is displayed in the house and is a great addition. Would highly recommend for the price and location.
