Loved our stay!

The location to Taos Valley, the Enchanted Loop with the Red River Fishery and Eagles Nest Lake was just perfect from the Magpie’s Nest. The mountain view from the deck was outstanding and so were all the accommodations. The short drive to Taos Plaza and local cuisine was super. Would definitely book again!
