Valdez House | Experience Dragonfly Estate, 5250 sq ft, Luxury Retreat.

5 Bedroom House in Valdez, El Prado

Dragonfly is an elegant, comfortable one-of-a-kind, 'mountain retreat', off Ski Valley Road, and midway between the town of Taos and Taos Ski Valley. Exquisite ‘top of the hill’ 360 degree views of Taos Mountain and explosive sunsets across the plains. NOTE: We are shifting to 31 days or longer rentals due to a new ordinance that restricts short term rentals in Taos County. This 5250 sqft gated private estate on 5 acres has Southwest ambiance throughout with 3 kiva fireplaces, viga ceilings, copper sconces, nichos, and luxury decor and original art.
Hummingbirds and dragonflies are frequent visitors in the extensive gardens full of local Rocky Mountain wildflowers, roses, lavender and fruit trees. Have your morning coffee in the front garden, or an evening barbeque in the back gardens with the rock waterfall/pond full of water lilies and tiger salamanders. Relax in the magical ATRIUM with orchids, ferns and flowers and surround sound, in the den/MUSIC ROOM. Enjoy the steam room shower in the main master bedroom after a day of hiking or skiing the slopes. Pass to nearby spa/fitness center/pool provided upon request.
The living room with its custom bronze entertainment cabinet, kiva fireplace and wet bar offers relaxing evenings. Dragonfly has a fully-equipped kitchen with professional range-oven, espresso maker, waffle maker and more, and a breakfast bar that opens to a gracious formal dining room with kiva fireplace. Enjoy 4 master bedroom suites (k, q, q +twin, 2 twins), each with unique decor, ensuite bath, walk-in closets...a rare find in Taos. (Extra nomad floor foam mattresses and queen sofa bed available for larger groups). With living, eating, and sleeping areas both upstairs and down, it feels like two houses! Enjoy our pianos, drum set and other instruments. With HI-SPEED FIBER, It’s a great place for work and play!
Please note this is a private retreat and home. We are a drug and smoke free property, NO parties.
Please request permission for pets.
We typically house 5 to 10, however, we can accommodate more persons with advance notice and preparation. It’s a palace for a couple. Please enquire first for groups more than 10 and disclose total number in your group at the time of your booking. It is also lovely space for writers, composers, screenwriters, and artists.
For winter months AWD or 4WD with clearance is required as snow and ice can be sudden and generous.

Summary: The home is exactly as shown in the photos— ts of room for a family of 7 adults. The location is midway between Taos and Taos Ski Valley, which is a real plus and a much better choice than staying at the mountain. I also want to give a shout-out and thanks to the owner, who was very responsive to all questions.

Summary: Our family enjoyed our 6 days there immensely and the house is so unique. Everyone had their own space, but it was easy to get together as a family. I would love to come back in warm weather to see the grounds. This was a trip that added many good memories. It did snow and that was special and the skiers sure did enjoy their 4 days on the mountain.

Summary: We were two families. Lovely house was ideal for us, four bedrooms, each with private bath, extra sofa bed in play room. House lends itself to relaxing at the end of the day or short drives to many nearby eateries. Location also good for hiking on Wheeler, also about 30 minutes to Los Rios River Runners (highly recommend). Piano available for those who enjoy relaxing at the keyboard. Alexa plays whatever else you'd like. Swamp cooler helps control temp downstairs. We have noted "life in the country" water pressure issues everywhere we've stayed in Taos area, this was as usual, but workable. Plan to recommend to friends. Owner was very easily accessible for questions.

Summary: My wife and I invited three other couples over to Taos for a concert. It was a Thu thru Sun stay. There was plenty of room, and multiple balconies were really beautiful. Each room had its own special charm. The dining area and kitchen were ample for our group, where we played games at the table. The game room was a huge bonus as we battled it out on the ping pong and air hockey tables as music was played on the baby grand. We enjoyed a BBQ in the incredible backyard alongside the small pond area. This was a great place for all of us and we would definitely stay there again.

Summary: As we stepped foot onto the enchanting grounds of Dragonfly Estate, we were instantly transported to a world of tranquility and natural beauty. Nestled amidst breathtaking landscapes, this hidden gem proved to be the perfect haven for our family and friends' vacation. First and foremost, the estate's location is nothing short of extraordinary. Surrounded by majestic mountains, sprawling forests, and a large pond, the estate provides a secluded retreat away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The moment we arrived, we were captivated by the awe-inspiring scenery that greeted us at every turn. The accommodations at Dragonfly Estate are simply divine. Our spacious villa was exquisitely decorated, combining modern elegance with rustic charm. The attention to detail was evident in every corner, from the cozy fireplaces to the plush furnishings. Each room boasted stunning views of the surrounding landscape, allowing us to wake up to breathtaking sunrises and fall asleep to the gentle sounds of nature. Whether you're seeking adventure or simply yearning for a peaceful escape, this magical retreat will undoubtedly leave you with memories to cherish for a lifetime. We can't wait to return to Dragonfly Estate and create even more beautiful memories in this truly remarkable oasis.

Summary: We had such an amazing time at Dragonfly Estate. The house was beautiful, warm, and accommodating. We had everything we needed and plenty of entertainment. The second half of our group stayed an extra day and was snowed in making them unable to leave on the day planned. Anne was extremely attentive and generous to them making sure that they were taken care of until they could leave. What an outstanding host! We felt like family. Thank you so much for you incredible hospitality.

Summary: Booked this home for my annual men’s ski trip. Never been to Taos but what a fun mountain. The home and the property were lovely. Some of the beds listed are mattresses placed on the floor but everyone was ok with it. Very close to the ski are and some nearby restaurants (ACEQ was our favorite. Went twice). Kitchen was well stocked. We didn’t cook except one big breakfast. The on demand water heater was great for a group our size. Great star gazing for sure. Would love to come back in the fall to enjoy the grounds more. Really a nice home for a large group and Anne was very helpful before and during our stay. You can’t go wrong with this home.

Summary: We had a lovely time. Anne was easy to coordinate with and made sure we were well taken care of. The kitchen had everything we could have needed. The space was perfect for all 3 generations from 2-80. Even when there was a problem with the water, Anne made sure it was resolved quickly and even offered to help relocate us.
