The observation of nature is part of an artist's life, it enlarges his form and knowledge, keeps him fresh and from working only by formula, and feeds inspiration.

Rustic Artist Cabin Rental

Paradise Creek Retreat is a peaceful place conducive to artistic creation; it’s an oasis for artists and writers that’s far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Taos and Red River, yet in the heart of the inspiring Sangre de Cristo mountains. We welcome landscape painters, sculptors, writers, and other free spirits to our charming, three-acre property that stimulates nature study and quiet reflection

Positive, Artistic Energy
The three pristine acres surrounding the main house and casita of Paradise Creek Retreat are steeped in the history of the inspiring artists who came before: the main house is converted from an artist’s studio which was used by legendary artist Randy Lee White, while nearby Taos is home to the Taos Society of Artists or Taos Founders—who fell in love with the area’s rich beauty and launched an artists’ community in 1915.

Nearby Taos—An Artistic Epicenter
For nearly a century, Taos, New Mexico has attracted artists from all over the world who seek the stunning, towering beauty of New Mexico’s mountain vistas and the quiet poetry of its mesas and desert hills. While Paradise Creek Retreat affords easy access to Taos—a renowned international artists’ market and community—it provides peaceful solace for the wayfaring artist seeking a closer connection with her natural subject: the land.

A Retreat for Writers
Literary artists will delight in a region in which D.H. Lawrence carved a writer’s paradise for himself high in the crags overlooking the rustic, energetic landscape of Taos. For those who are attentive—the calming gurgle of our private stream will recall memories, inspire crisp haikus, and conjure characters.

Whatever your creation, it desires peace and quiet to birth itself from the dark womb of your artists’ mind. Paradise Creek Retreat provides comfort and solitude, relaxation and renewal, for the artist within you.
