Casa Luna - Adobe Retreat with Mountain Views

Summary:

Welcome to Casa Luna, a single-level adobe retreat in Ranchos de Taos with sweeping mountain and valley views. This pueblo-style home wraps authentic Southwest character around a furnished verandah, a gas grill, and a fire pit made for sunset evenings. Cook in the updated kitchen, gather by the wood-burning kiva fireplace, and let everyone spread out in the open high-desert setting.
