Little Tree Bed and Breakfast
A Taos New Mexico Bed & Breakfast

  
Come discover our quiet and tranquil Taos getaway.
Rediscover life in a romantic adobe hacienda while soaking up sweeping
360* views, lush gardens, glorious sunsets and a night's sky laden with stars. Located on the north side of Taos, just a quick drive to town or the ski slopes, make The Little Tree your home base to explore everything that is... New Mexico.  

  The Little Tree is a charming and intimate three room bed and breakfast. Built with real adobe mud bricks and mortar in 1990, you will have all the benefits of modern construction while still in an authentic adobe hacienda that is re-mudded every year! The center garden courtyard's portal, with comfortable rocking chairs and benches, provides the perfect place to take in our vast 360* views. Light years from reality, our rural setting allows the quiet to seep into your bones. 

The Taos News, "Recharge your batteries at The Little Tree", September 3, 2009. When you curl up for an afternoon nap at the Little Tree B&B, it’s to the ethereal drone of the hummingbirds and the rustling of the apple tree leaves. They contribute to an entire atmosphere that invites you to slow down, tune in and rejuvenate. The inn enjoys breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. It’s about equidistant from the Town of Taos and Taos Ski Valley and has no roadside sign, in the hopes of maintaining its relative under-the-radar status. The inn’s buildings are all adobe, including exteriors of mud-and-straw plaster rarely found in modern buildings. It allows the adobe bricks to “breathe” and creates a feeling of connection with the elements even while inside. Sculptural details, like nichos and windows between rooms, help create a sense of sanctity. All three guest rooms have private baths, plush queen-sized beds, unique décor and private entrances. "Our guests can be as private or as social as they want,” explains Maggie. “People that are drawn here though, tend to be on a deeper journey, whether they’re traveling solo, or as a couple or with a friend.” Ritz-Carlton escapees, The Johnston's have run the inn for the last 10 years and have worked in hospitality their entire adult lives. For them, serving people is about much more than making a living. They see it as their life mission. Despite all the elegance, the atmosphere is anything but stuffy. “It’s beautiful to see folks show up to breakfast in their bathrobes,” says Maggie. “There’s no greater feeling than a guest feeling at home.” 

Frommer's American Southwest 2009 and Frommer's 2008 Guide to Santa Fe, Taos and Albuquerque - A Frommer's Find. "Little Tree B and B is one of my favorite Taos bed and breakfasts, partly because it's located in a beautiful, secluded setting, and partly because it's constructed with real adobe that's been left in its raw state, lending the place an authentic hacienda feel.  Visiting hummingbirds enchant guests as they enjoy a scrumptious breakfast on the portal." 

New Mexico Magazine, May 2005. "A stellar B & B,
the moderately priced Little Tree scores high marks -
it rests upon a slope of sagebrush near Arroyo Seco, affording guests eye- popping views of the Sangre de Christo mountains to the east and the Rio Grande Valley to the west. The three guest rooms in this authentic adobe house surround a hummingbird-happy garden and contain Saltillo-tile floors and rustic but refined Southwestern furnishings."

 

The Little Tree Bed & Breakfast is also recommended in current editions of Great Destinations: The Santa Fe & Taos Book by Sharon Niederman and Moon Handbooks: Santa Fe, Taos and Albuquerque by Zora O'Neill and Fodor's Travel Guide: Santa Fe, Taos & Albuquerque.

From Our Guest Book:
   
Maggie & Gordon ~ 
   
     Henri Nouwen, a Dutch-born Catholic Priest, who wrote several modern classics on spirituality, gave a definition of Hospitality. He said that hospitality is the practice of making space so that guests have room to truly be themselves. To heal. To grow. 
   
    You two are the Definition of Hospitality. You make space, physically & spiritually. You feed us well ~ with healthy & delicious food ~ with the beauty of the space, indoors and outdoors ~ with sparkling and informative conversation ~ with a depth of spirit. 
    
     We want to add this: 
You two complement each other ~ making a kind of hospitality synergy. Thank you for being you!
