I took a group of a dozen college students to the home in Ruidoso for spring break, and we couldn't have asked for a better situation. I didn't hear one complaint but heard many compliments about the situation we had. We really appreciated how close the home was to so much great downtown shopping and to Starbucks. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals there, and the fireplace was really nice to use. Thanks so much for how clean it was and so useable for our group. We definitely plan to come back to this home again.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, people with disabilities, sightseeing, pet owners, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.

We came here in the first weekend of March and it was perfect! The pictures do not give this little home away from home any justice. It was very spacious, clean, comfortable, and so close to everything! I highly recommend this to anyone whether its a group or just a couple on a quick get away. Renters very helpful and friendly.
