A few weeks ago, my husband and I spent a morning taking a guided rafting trip with RMSR. We had…read morethe privilege of having Anela as our guide with Maki on the raft just behind us. Both are fabulous, hardworking ladies. Somehow, we were the only two guests on the raft with Anela, so we felt we had personalized service and room to spread out. I believe there were 4 other rafts that morning with all of us cruising down the river together. The morning of the tour, we arrived a bit early. The ladies in the shop had us fill out the necessary waiver. There is a selection of merchandise available to purchase and a small restroom available to use in the shop. The van ride to the launch area was fairly short. The guides handed out life jackets to each guest and made sure the life jackets were nice and snug. No helmets or wetsuits were needed. Before getting on the rafts, Anela gave the morning safety speech of what to do if someone should fall out of the raft. Fortunately, no one did on our tour. The week prior to our tour, the area had received rain each day, so Anela mentioned that the water level in the river had come up. Our tour was a few hours long and a very relaxing float. There were a few slightly choppy areas on the river, but nothing rough at all. The scenery along the Rio Grande is beautiful. We had the option of jumping out of the raft at one location, and only one guide in the group decided to jump out. I personally wasn't sure how I'd get back in the raft, LOL. Our guide Anela was fantastic, super friendly and informative. The beauty of the mountains was incredible. We will book again next summer!

As soon as we arrived at the shore to depart the sky opened and poured down icy hail! We contemplated continuing on with our tour, as we booked for 8 people (prices were great, but 8 bookings adds up), however our guides were very supportive of the fact that the weather was well past inclement and offered to allow us to rebook the tour for later in the day. I am so grateful we had that opportunity! Our party included 2 adults and 6 children ranging from a toddler to teens and it was perfect for everyone. All of the staff were extremely friendly and we can tell the family that runs the operation takes pride in their work and business.

My husband and I stayed here in 2023 and absolutely loved our cabin and our time here. We were so…read moreexcited to come back for our 5th wedding anniversary, however when we showed up today the cabin was literally flooded with the overflowing river. So much so, that the sheriff told us no one was allowed on the premises, and hanging around for what I assume to make a call on evacuation. We called Vacasa's help line to receive a refund or some sort of assistance since THEY'RE cabin is underwater, and the lady proceeded to tell us that since the insurance was not purchased, there was nothing she could do. AT ALL. So after 13 hours of driving we are having to find elsewhere to stay. Maybe next time I'll purchase the travel insurance. OH WAIT!! There won't be a next time with Vacasa.

I really love Monarch! It has a local, small town feel. It's not a huge mountain, but none of the runs are ever too busy nor were the lift lines ever more than a three minute wait. The parking is close enough that it's a quick walk to the base regardless of where you end up parking (Even if you go to the overflow parking up top, you can ski down to the base). I also appreciate that the food and drinks aren't exorbitantly expensive - they have ~$5 slices of pizza and ~$8 beers (even on tap) which in today's world is pretty unheard of at a resort! Definitely one of my favorite smaller local mountains.

Instead, we were in the middle of a gravel parking lot 3 feet between the various RVs. We dare open our windows as we could wave at our neighbors. We could hand them a cup of coffee we were so close. If we opened our windows, we could see the back end of the pick up truck or RV in front of us or our truck behind us. It was so disappointing. The dog walk was a long hike away and the only way you could see the river was to get out of your RV and walk over to the buildings and look down several feet hundreds of feet to the river. We will not stay here again.

We recently visited Taos Ski Valley and while we did have fun, I want to share an honest review…read morefrom the perspective of a family traveling with accessibility needs. Positives first: There is handicapped parking available, the staff across the village was consistently kind and willing to help, and there are so many fun activities for kids sledding, snowboarding, ice skating, and the Gondolita was such a cute, fun little ride the kids absolutely loved. The food was great, the drinks were amazing, and overall it can be a wonderful family experience. I also want to give a huge shoutout to Felipe at Taos Guest Services/Ticketing. He was incredibly kind, patient, helpful, and truly went above and beyond for us. When you're already navigating a challenging situation, people like him make all the difference and we truly appreciated him. However, accessibility is a serious issue here and needs attention. The area is not ADA-friendly at all. Most shops have steps with no ramps, doorways are too narrow for wheelchairs, and many restaurants are extremely cramped with very little space to move through. The only elevator we could find was inside The Blake Hotel, and although staff eventually understood, it was uncomfortable having to justify using the elevator simply to access the lower level like everyone else. The "handicapped parking" area is also on a slope, which makes it difficult and unsafe for wheelchairs or mobility-restricted guests. The shuttles have such small clearance that even my stroller couldn't fully board, so we had to physically hold it while it hung on a step. A designated lounge or viewing area for guests who cannot ski would have made a huge difference especially ADA-accessible viewing spots for skiing and sledding so disabled guests can still comfortably enjoy watching family and friends. Constructively, I strongly recommend clearly marking ADA-only viewing areas so they remain available for people with both visible and invisible disabilities. We still made beautiful memories, but navigating the area was unnecessarily difficult for what is promoted as a family-friendly destination. I would absolutely return, because we did enjoy it but the ADA accessibility truly needs to be re-evaluated and improved. One helpful tip for future visitors: If you need ski or snowboard rentals, check out Taos Pueblo Sur, as their pricing is much more affordable. Things can get pricey VERY quickly in the main area.

Some of the hotels/lodging on the mountain are lovely but we didn't stay there due to higher cost. We stayed in El Prado, about a 30 minute drive, however, it's a beautiful drive. Of course, we wish there had been more snow but that's the case everywhere out west in December-January 2025-2026 or so it seems. Either way, the consensus from our party was that we would return here to ski again.

We've…read morespent HOURS just trying to reserve tubing spots, and the entire process is a mess from start to finish. Creating accounts is painfully slow, and you're forced to assign a separate email to every single person. After jumping through all those hoops, the site still refuses to move anything to the cart. The worst part is that it doesn't even tell you what's wrong -- it just silently fails. When we finally called, we were told there are only a limited number of tubing spots available. That's fine... but the website doesn't show availability, doesn't warn you, and apparently just deletes your account attempts if the spots are gone. How is that acceptable in 2026? We've wasted hours fighting a system that should take five minutes. The mountain is fun, but the website is embarrassingly outdated and absolutely needs a complete overhaul. Please fix your website. It's ruining what should be an easy, enjoyable experience
