I think I'm on a mission to…read more. SAVE RATON!! So, I've been going to and from CA to CO for the past two+ years and the Amtrak has definitely been a secret pleasure of mine. The rates are pretty darn reasonable and the experience is quite nice. One stop I thought was simply magical was Raton. It let me know that we're almost to CO or well on my way back west. Whether I'm jumping off to hitch a ride on the Grey Hound connector to hit the major cities, or hanging tight on the train a little longer to visit my cousin who lives near the La Junta station... Raton is a quiet town with some of the sweetest folk one can encounter. Enter "The Pack Rat" One of a few places open this past Labor Day was this great place. Browse for staple souvenirs and even amazing locally made goodies like rosaries, jewelry, crafty items, and even yummy eats. Our 2 hour delay got us patronizing and socializing at the Pack Rat. The owners were cordial and very helpful. They were very inviting and informative. Not too pushy and gave us just enough space to freely move about the establishment without feeling watched or pressured. They had a fairly large selection of dream catchers. Small to big! We snatched a howling wolf that was pretty huge for $25. A definite deal considering I got one in AZ or UT from a "native" that was the size of a half dollar for 15 bucks. They adorn the walls, so please check them out if your into them. I walked out with some snacks for the road, a habanero salsa, that catcher, and a few other trinkets. The Pack Rat is a tourist must because what's better than good people, local items, reasonable prices, and tons of souvenirs to sift through?? I was fully satisfied with the purchase I made and would love to come back again. AMTRAK, would you please consider re-opening the Raton station? Spread the word!!! I'm on a mission to save it all :)

This is a very special place with history and charm from every angle.

Right when you walk in, you can feel the love the kind owners have put into this B&B. The breakfast is the BIG standout here! Gourmet and better than any luxury hotel out there- I mean, we were stunned plus the kids were happy! It's walkable to cute shops/restaurants in town, and the view is beautiful. Catch more views and a great hike at Capulin Volcano National Park just 30min away (get there before 4pm!). We will definitely return next time we're in Raton!

Had a delightful stay here! I'm so glad I found it on Google Maps and Sofia could accommodate me,…read moremy mom, and pup last minute. We had the first floor Parlor Room. The environment is quite enchanting - an 1880s Victorian boarding house turned BNB. The floors are a bit creaky and the bathroom was private for the first floor. Not sure about second floor. The breakfast was hot and prepared for us but I think the coffee could have been stronger and eggs maybe a bit better cooked. Loved the sausage and juice though! Overall, really unique stay and I would recommend. I'm happy they're pet friendly and only charge a $20 fee. The backyard was great for my pup to play around.

I hesitate to write this as Larry is loved by Taos and I have used his services for 30+ years. Even…read morebefore this recent experience my reviews have been mixed on the work he has done for me. He remade my mother's wedding ring and band into one ring (mediocre) and he made earrings out of a Chinese mother of pearl game token adding a gold frame and a pearl to each (I was astounded by the price tag of over $700, but my bad for not getting an estimate). I took my lab grown diamond anniversary band to have a diamond reset that had fallen out and asked that they also check the others to make sure they weren't loose. I picked up my ring which I thought looked good. Upon closer examination at home I discovered that almost half of my ring was smashed on the interior and the stone that was replaced was crooked. I took the ring back and spoke with Larry. He said he did not do the work, someone else did. He took the ring back and said he would see what he could do with it. He did apologize. I picked it up and this time, not only was the inside still smashed, but the exterior silver looked like it had been sanded. So, half of my ring is shiny silver and have is dull. It is ruined. I'm sorry Larry, but if someone did that to one of your beautiful silver creations you would not be happy. Neither am I.

Fixed my two vintage bracelets by adding missing stones perfectly. Highly recommended. Reasonable…read moreprice as well.
