#2. Taos, New Mexico
In addition to a world-class ski resort, Taos is home to a World Heritage Site (Taos Pueblo), distinctive cuisine and an art culture deeply rooted in the history of the Southwest.
After a day of Rocky Mountain powder — without the crowds of Vail and Aspen — stroll the walkable downtown and admire the adobe architecture that sets this ski town apart. When your legs need a rest, head to the Edelweiss Lodge and Spa, which is a ski-in, ski-out property. But before you call it a night, head to La Cueva Cafe for chipotle shrimp tacos.

Frommer’s Review
Opened in 2005, this lodge at the base of the mountain took the place of a 1960’s classic chalet. Now, it’s a brand new condo-hotel. The condominiums are upscale, each with a flagstone fireplace and full kitchen with marble counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and many with nice views of the slopes. All have luxury furnishings decorated in earth tones. For those looking for an upscale stay, this is your choice. Hotel rooms follow with the same luxury as the condos. Rooms are medium size with comfortable beds and medium-size baths. Check the website for a glimpse of the rooms and other facilities. Underground parking, a full spa, an excellent restaurant, and — get this — valet service for your skis, add to the appeal. Wireless Internet access is available in the lobby.
