About this property

Moon Mountain Escape | Fantastic Views, Hot Tub

The great outdoors in all its splendor is a prime reason to visit Ruidoso, and Moon Mountain Escape makes it easy to relish the crisp mountain air, the inspiring views, and the nearby lakes and trails. Not only is the two-bedroom home close to climbing, skiing, fishing, biking, and riding, but it also boasts a huge front and side deck. We’ll provide all the clean towels you could possibly need, so you don’t have to load up your suitcase with linens from home. In fact, because Moon Mountain Escape has its own washer and dryer, you can pack lighter than usual.

The snow and the mountains are the top reasons to visit in winter. Ski Apache is only 40 minutes away; less than 15 minutes away is Ruidoso Winter Park, where you can snow tube. Even closer are Alto Lake and Recreation Area, the Links at Sierra Blanca, and Grindstone Lake and Trail System.

So much fun awaits you at Moon Mountain Escape. Don’t miss out: Book your stay today!

Please remember that Ruidoso is a mountain town with snow and icy conditions during the winter. This can affect driving and parking conditions regardless of the property, driveway, or roads. Maximum Vehicles 3.

We loved the location of this beautiful cabin-esque escape! The amenities offered were outstanding. The gas fireplace was not working when we arrived, but within a few hours of notifying the host, a repairman came and fixed it. The house is lovely and cozy, and the ambience is beautiful. The bed was comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Quite lovely!

Everything Was perfect

Had a great stay at Moon Mountain Escape. The house was very clean. The kitchen was stocked with everything that we needed or wanted. The laundry had pods and dryer sheets to wash before we got back on the road. The hot tub was perfect for watching the snowfall. The fireplace is gas and does not produce heat, just for aesthetics. Lots of snuggly blankets to curl up with in the living room. We played cards one night from the stash of cards and board games provided. The driveway is a little steep but no problems getting in it during the snow. The only negative I have to say about our whole stay is the heater ran a lot. We set it to 65 but still seemed to always be on.

Exceptionally clean cabin

Cabin looks new and high quality throughout. Beds very comfortable, linens, towels all high quality. Best cookwear and knives I've ever seen in a rental. Good location but it is very steep. In winter you'd better have chains, 4-wheel drive at least. Nice hot tub, trek decks. Very nice. My only real complaint was ice maker not working and not notified of it when checking in. I could have stopped and bought ice instead of having to make another trip. The TV was hard to figure out. And also the controller for the air conditioner. We stayed a week and enjoyed hanging out. Take spices, there are none there.
