2 Bedroom House in Embudo, Pilar

This secluded Rio Grande Casita puts the Great Outdoors at your doorstep. The views from the property are unmatched. This traditional village borders both the Rio Grande and the southern Rocky Mountains. Centrally located to sites in Santa Fe, Taos, and southern Colorado, it is a quick, scenic 20 minute drive to Taos, an hour drive from 4 popular ski areas, and a key location for birders, rock climbers, kayakers, and other outdoor enthusiasts. Archaeologists and geologists visit the area to explore cultural sites and rock formations. Artists set up easels along the riverbanks painting the rich colors and dramatic landscapes.
Skip the crowded condo scene and enjoy breathtaking scenery while grilling out on the patio or just kicking back on the screened veranda. Modern kitchen and spacious living area feature brick floors, kiva fireplace, and hand-crafted furniture. Perfect for a romantic getaway or for letting your children enjoy the freedom of natural surroundings.
Winter/Spring Conditions: Winter/Spring in Pilar can be the best time to visit. There are six nearby ski resorts with skiing and snow boarding. Travel time from the casita varies from 45 minutes to a little over an hour. The nearby Orilla Verde Recreation is quiet with returning bald eagles and other wildlife. Of course, summer can be exquisite. Cool nights give way to warm days and the quintessential azure skies of Northern New Mexico.
Taos hosts numerous seasonal festivals featuring regional art, food, and spirits.
Location Details: The casita is located at the end of a private road about 600 feet from the river. It is bordered by BLM land on two sides and is surrounded by mixed conifer trees that offer peace and privacy.
This is a rental by owner. We live next door, 200 feet away, and we are happy to assist visitors with any details regarding their trip to the Taos area.

Summary: We loved the access to the river for floating, fishing and hiking. We were also very happy to hang out around the house and enjoy the views, hot tub, handmade adobe, screened in front porch, nearby hike, and neighbors! We had our 21 year old daughter with us, and it was very easy to childproof the house.

Summary: Property is fabulous. The casita is authentic and tastefully furnished and decorated to surround you with New Mexico. 15-20 minute drive to Taos. 40 minutes to Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. Did a day trip to Red River. Sitting outside we were greeted by lots of hummingbirds. The property is very private and safe.

Summary: We enjoyed that it was private and quiet, the home itself is beautiful everything from the adobe walls, vigas and brick floors all they way to the appropriately curated art works in the interior design. We were impressed that the home was well equipped for everyone in our family including those of us who love to cook from those of us who love to relax observing the high desert landscape.

Summary: This is hands down the most beautiful place to stay. The views are stunning, the mountain to the left turns a beautiful orange/red just before the sun goes down and the gorge is a sight to see. From every angle there is a spectacular view, on top of that the Rio Grande is a spit down the hill and it is so picturesque. The photos do not capture how special this place is! The road at the bottom of the casita runs along the river and is a beautiful drive. The casita itself is wonderfully crafted by the owner, we could not stop admiring his work. It is very tastefully decorated inside and impeccably clean. We loved the bedrooms, and sweet bathroom and enjoyed the outside patio with visits from humming birds. The owners have put a lot of thought into this house, it’s an absolute GEM! We really enjoyed coming back to the casita each day knowing what beauty we would see on our return. We thoroughly enjoyed this area, Taos was a 15 min drive away, which is also a very beautiful drive with glimpses of Georgia O’Keeffe’s famous Mesa, and incredible views of the gorge. We saw artists with easels painting the view. We spent a week here and really loved all the art and beauty of this area. I can highly recommend staying here, we can’t wait to come back!

Summary: We stayed at the casita to celebrate a milestone birthday. The accommodations were amazing and the views spectacular. We hiked the gorge and visited Sante Fe and the Taos areas. The Taos Art Collective had quality art and reasonable prices. The lodging was immaculate and had everything we needed. Watching the millions of stars while relaxing in the hot tub was a special treat. The owners live nearby but provided a lot of privacy for the casita. The butte behind the casita provides a dramatic backdrop for the location. We couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay. We’d gladly stay again.
