We call it Big Little Hideaway and it will take you about 30 seconds upon arriving to discover why.

We're 15 minutes away from Taos and Arroyo Secco where you can enjoy great food, galleries and shopping, and 30 minutes away from the awesome Taos Ski Valley.Ideal for couples or families of 4 or close friends.

The Rainbow connection is a well designed tiny home we purchased new in 2021 and put it out on our land. We love the simplicity of this tiny home.

Loved this tiny getaway home and how close it was to Taos attractions! The home itself is very nice and comfortable. We were 4 adults (including 2 seniors) and a child and it was perfect! Since there are several homes on the property, we will consider coming back next time with friends!

Very nicely appointed tiny house. Great location. Best part was proximity to Rio Grande Gorge for wading, hot springs, stargazing in total darkness.

Charming place not far from ojo caliente or the historic railroad in antonito. I didn't get a chance to try the food at the restaurant, but it smelled great.

The Bougie tiny house was awesome (had everything you could need for a comfortable stay) & the views were stunning! So close to the river, too. Would definitely recommend and/or return :)

Not quite a camp cabin and not quite a B&B, it has tons of history and character. The staff were very friendly and accommodating! The area is lovely with lots of opportunity for hiking and outdoor recreation, and plenty of room for our dogs to run.

The Rainbow Connection was impeccably clean and labeled with helpful directions to navigate the building’s amenities. They even included river blankets for us to use during our time at the hot springs down the road (just a short walk to the Rio Grande!)

We loved staying at The Rainbow Connection on Jayme & Doug’s land. The instructions were clear and helpful. Being so close to the Rio Grande was such a treat, and being at essentially the start of the Enchanted Circle Drive was also amazing. It was such a cozy spot to land each night and we enjoyed making breakfast with the windows open and the cool early morning breeze. Would definitely stay again! And will definitely recommend to friends!

This is a wonderful space, there are great views to be had, definitely stroll around the property for different vantage points. The space feels very private and it was amazingly quiet, especially in the evenings The homes themselves are laid how really well and do not "feel" tiny at all, the kitchen was stocked with what you need and totally functional making meal prep a breeze. In the evenings, with the windows open there was a wonderful breeze. During the hot day, the AC was more than sufficient to keep the home cool. Hot tub is an amazing place to watch the sun set and then to gaze at the stars that follow. Host was wonderful and provided us with a hike recommendation that ended up being our favorite of the trip. Should also mention the proximity to hiking, the Rio Grand and Taos made this a great location! Highly recommend!

We are a bicycling group of 5 and enjoyed a wonderful evening (plus dinner and breakfast) at the Chili Line. Deborah (and her staff) runs a very sweet 3-room lodge in conjunction with her restaurant. Deborah took the time to meet us after we arrived and sat down with us during our dinner. We enjoyed a most relaxing and pleasant overnight stay . . . it was a great (and convenient) stay-over between Chama and Taos.

Deb was a fabulous host, we felt right at home and well taken care of. She was accommodating of our vegetarian diets, flexible with our timing needs, and took the time to swap life stories with us and share some of her incredible adventures. She even called us while we were en route, later than expected, to see if they should leave the grill on for us! We’d stay here again :)

I really enjoyed my stay at Deborah’s. Her whole crew was very welcoming and warm, the place was cute and spacious. I rolled in during a storm so I didn’t get to explore the area like I wanted to, but the views I saw were gorgeous. It’s very high altitude so I recommend preparing yourself for that- drink water in excess and bring some pain pills for the pressure at night. Would stay again!

Jayme and Doug were wonderful hosts. They set you up with detailed driving and arrival/departure instructions. Everything you need, they have thoughtfully laid out for you. The distance to Taos is an easy 15 mins. Great location, excellent hospitality. We would love to stay with them again.

Had a good night sleep at the Chili lime depot also a hot shower which is 5 star in my book. Private bathroom and if you’re lucky enough to catch the kitchen open the food looked good and the people were very nice and inviting. Pastries were yummy especially the lemon one!! No water in the hot tub so we didn’t bother to try it out and it was close enough to the Earthship village for dirt shenanigans! Thanks for having us, I would stay again
