My family always loves stopping by this place when we're in Angel Fire - the owners and artists are so welcoming, so kind, and always happy to take the time to explain their process to you and give you a full tour of the studio and kiln where their works take shape. Every piece they make is beautiful and unique, and it's a great place to pick up gifts both for yourself and for others! Highly recommend stopping there if you're ever in the Enchanted Circle!

You can see the magical influence of the Taos landscape in the the artwork on the shelves at Rottenstone Pottery. It is a place to find a souvenir or marvel at the skills of the local talent. We could not resist the "wine cups" that are perfect for tea, coffee, soup and more.

I walked in a total novice and walked out an hour later with a book and poster of rocks and minerals! Since then, I have taken buckets of rocks on Mondays for Kelle to patiently help me identify my 'finds'. This man is a walking encyclopedia and so helpful with the geology of the area. Valerie is just as friendly and knowledgeable, handing out local maps to find some 'treasure'. And that is just the staff. The selection of rocks and minerals at all price levels are just incredible. Well displayed, your truly do not want to leave. We did manage to find some great gifts when certain minerals 'spoke' to us:) By far the least intimidating rock shop we have been to and highly recommended for novices and experts.

Roberta gave us an in-depth tour, with bonus time in the childhood playroom and machine shop. It pays to visit this site more than once, because there are so many layers to the stories embedded here. Like ancient Amber, new clues to the past can be revealed with the scrutiny of the present.

I met up here with two friends from SMU Bank School... We have been traveling together every year in September since we graduated in 1989. THIS PLACE is one of the best!! It is so historic and wonderful. We each had our own room in Juniper House, with our own bath. A fireplace in every room and plenty of good lighting to read or write. The wooden floors creak, but they were covered with colorful rugs. Beds were comfy. And the breakfasts were delicious and amazing. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Wifi was available near the main house. We felt so welcome as we lounged in the library and played Mexican Train and as we had wine and snacks in the courtyard and as we relaxed in the arbor. The whole property was open to us and we enjoyed the peace and beauty. And then when we wanted to go into Taos, it was a short drive. I will return.
