Absolutely fantastic!

This home was a perfect getaway for me and my husband. We opened the door and found that it is exactly what we saw in the photos. It is the cleanest home we have stayed in. The bed was comfy and the hot tub was so relaxing. We would definitely recommend this home for your next stay in Ruidoso!!

Perfect get away in the mountains

The house was wonderful. Everything has advertised. Clean. Well stocked. Beds were comfy. Hot tub was wonderful. Beautiful remote location - saw deer in the lawn multiple times throughout the trip. Would return again if we come back through NM.

Great House and Location

We loved the Blue Spruce Retreat! The house was spacious and the layout was perfect. It was very clean and well maintained. We loved the porches. Just FYI for future renters - there was lack of shampoo and conditioner in the bathrooms (we all have stayed at rental properties before and this has always been provided). They did provide bar soap, but it was the small hotel size. Also, there was one wash cloth provided per person for bathing and only 2 trash bags so we had to go to the store for supplies. We would definitely rent this house again. Great location to everything, but you still felt like you were out in the woods. We did see deer running around. There are other houses around, but they are not too close. It was very quiet, which we loved. We had a great time playing games on the big table in the dining room and the Dish TV provided a lot of channels for football watching. The beds were comfortable. Thanks for allowing us to stay for some great family time!
