PLEASE read completely prior to sending requests and thank you for your interest! Open to longer term exchanges outside the US.

Dragonfly Estate is a private luxury retreat in Taos, NM, midway between Taos and Taos Ski Valley, overlooking the million acre Carson National Forest. The 5250 sq ft custom adobe two story home on 5 acres was designed by an art photographer and contains original art, Native American artifacts and unique southwestern decor with Moroccan and Indian touches as well. And….3 pianos, a drum set and a few more instruments to enjoy! There are four master suites sleeping 8 persons, and we can accommodate more, but for exchanges we much PREFER a couple or small family/group. We get many requests for larger family reunions, retreats and weddings which, with apologies, we cannot accommodate.

Amenities include: high speed fiber internet, steam shower and jacuzzi bathtub in the main master bedroom, music room, atrium, chef's kitchen with professional stove, kiva fireplaces, full wet bar, wifi, smart TV, extensive forested grounds, rock waterfall/lily pond, outdoor grills/bbq, ramada, formal gardens, and more.

Access to year round outdoor sports, 70 art galleries, seasonal events, the Taos Pueblo a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Rio Grande Gorge Bridge, Enchanted Circle, Williams Lake and Wheeler Peak hikes, and many other scenic areas. Great base for day trips to Santa Fe and Southern Colorado.

We ask for a $350 cleaning, trash removal and laundering fee, (this is a very large home and we pay a living wage to housekeepers; fee less if just a couple) and during colder/winter months may ask for a heating fee of $150 due to propane costs. We are very strict about NO SMOKING INSIDE or OUT of any type, no outdoor fires, no street drugs/cannabis, confetti, balloons, events/parties. No commercial filmmaking on the premises.

We look forward to hearing from you!
