Great stay, incredible view, house was neat and very clean. Easy access instructions for property from Host. Great location for quick to and from Ski Apache. Ideal for adult couples or a family with kids. Layout accommodates both well. Not a party place. Highly recommended and I will seek to stay again in the future.

I would recommend this to family and friends, the home was cozy but spacious and very clean, the view was beautiful and our deer friends came to visit each night. Easy access to main highway to get to other destinations. Definitely will rent again next trip to Ruidoso! The owners were always available if needed.

Peaceful retreat

We really enjoyed our stay.at 2 Cubs Cottage. The location was far enough from the town center to be peaceful, but close enough to have easy access to everything we needed. House was clean on arrival and well stocked. The deck is the perfect place for a morning cup of coffee and offers a nice view with some likely wildlife sightings. Would definitely return in the future if we're back in Ruidoso.

Excellent all around!

Convenient location. Beautiful inside and lovely deck views. We appreciated the thoughtful details such as a bedside noise machine (not needed as it was very quiet), two kinds of coffee makers, and footstools for the couches. Best communication with owners we’ve ever experienced. Personal, responsive and kind. We will try to book this property first any time we return to the area.

Comfy, clean & excellent view

We were mislead as there was no Dishwasher or Oven to use. The owner was angry that we requested the oven to be fixed. She bought our pizza one nite as we had gone to the grocery and bought some freezer food inc a frozen pizza. The female owner was quite mean & belligerent. I'm not sure I would rent that property again. Also, the bedrooms only had full size bed that was difficult or impossible to access for both people sleeping. Thumbs down for professionalism & courtesy.

About the host

Hosted by Bonnie and Mario Garza

Host profile image
Our family started coming to Ruidoso 18 years ago. After having children we continued coming. It took one ski trip with our little ones and they were hooked! After that, we realized staying in hotels was expensive and impractical. We decided to build a mountain home and have loved every second of the planning and moving in. We hope you enjoy your stay with us here at 2 Cubs Cottage.
