Vacation Rental Description

Alpenglow Chalet is a modern vacation condo set amid the serene mountain setting of Taos Ski Valley's Wheeler Peak area. Yards away from Kachina lift #4, this hideaway is the perfect place for you, your family, your friends, and anyone else you can think of! Kick back, ski, hike the famous Wheeler Peak Trail, fish, have a beer at the Bavarian Log House down the street or simply relax in one of Taos Properties most popular Taos Ski Valley vacation rentals.

Light the fireplace, brew a pot of coffee, and laze around with a good book while the others hit the slopes. The glow of this living room will have others hurrying home to be with you! The modern kitchen, with granite countertops, gas range, oven, microwave, dishwasher, full sized refrigerator and all the cooking tools you need will help you feed an army... or just reheat your food from the Bavarian Lodge up the road.

With hundreds of pristine acres of Wilderness Area just outside the door, the opportunity for fun is limitless. Wake up and survey the conditions on the Kachina lift just out the window. Or put on snow shoes (or even cross-country skis) and hike less than an hour to picturesque Williams Lake, surrounded by New Mexico's highest mountains. Don't want to cook? We're the closest to New Mexico's most famous German restaurantt- the Bavarian Lodge! Enjoy their delicious food or just a large mug of their great beers or wines- it's a short walk away. The photos speak for themselves! We're confident you'll find something for everyone at the Alpenglow Chalet.

Summer activities include hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, whiteriver rafting/kayaking, Taos Ski Valley Summer Music Festival in August and/or September and enjoying the cool mountain nights. Located just a stone's throw (2 minute walk) to Williams Lake Trail Head for the awesome Taos Mountain Hike to Williams Lake.

Maximum number of guests is 10 including 6 adults and 4 children. There are two elegant bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor. The loft sleeps an additional 6 people in a double bed, a traditional bunk, and a single/double bunk. There are 8 separate beds for sleeping up to 8 singles separately. You can also find a cozy sitting area and TV/DVD with more than 100 channels up in the loft.

During summer and off-season Wheeler Peak 205 (Alpenglow Chalet) rates are discounted for lodging where summer temperatures are the coolest in all of New Mexico. Call for details. There is a heated single garage for condo guests to use.

There are no ticket sales at the base of the Kachina Chair, they are only sold at the main base area. Ski down the "Rubezahl" Run to the main base to get your tickets for the day. An even better option is to buy your multiday pass before you drive up to the condo so you can skip the crowds and get right on the Kachina Chair."

Taos standard for "Ski in Ski Out" indicates one does not have to get in their car to reach the slopes, but rather that lifts and runs can be reached by a relatively short walk and/or pole.

4x4 or chains required in winter

Testimonials

Three years ago my wife & I discovered Alpen Glow Chalet @ Taos ski Valley. If the snow is good, you'll need four wheel drive to get there, but the ski in-ski out is so convenient, I wouldn't stay anywhere else. We look forward to our annual Taos winter ski vacation and the Alpen Glow Chalet feels like our second home." Mark & CS - Boise, ID

You know what they say...location, location, location. If you're looking for an ideal spot for your mountain skiing getaway this is the place. What a classy condo in a perfect spot. Plenty of room, amazing views, and right in the heart of some of the best skiing (lift and back country) in the southwest. Look nowhere else, this is where you want to be. Jay - from Ohio

"This place has wonderful views. You can look right up at Kachina Peak and see what the conditions are like before heading out for the day." Barbara from Eatonville, WA

"We loved every minute of our stay, thank you so much for your hospitality! The condo was perfectly located so that we could backcountry ski right out the door, or be at the lift in minutes. It was perfect for a family of all skiing abilities because it is so easy to get from the lifts to the condo for a meeting point or lunch. Not to mention there was plenty to do for our family that chose not to ski, snowshoeing, lunch at the Bavarian or a quick trip into Taos for shopping. I love that Taos still has a family feel, but some of the best ski lines out West, without the crowds of Colorado or the bitter cold of Montana. We are already planning a trip for next February to celebrate my 30th and look forward to the days when we are bring our little ones to ski with cousins." Michelle from Missoula, Montana

This is a very special place that I can see my family coming back to year after year. Heather from Tucson, AZ

On days when I'm not skiing the lifts, I tour into the Wheeler Peak Wilderness Area. There is awesome terrain right above Williams lake, which is an easy hour from the front door." Mark from Tucson, AZ
