We loved the property. The area was beautiful and cabin was spacious. We had an amazing time. The only thing I would say be mindful of is apparently there is a large dog in the area that loves to drop land mines at the base of the stairs.

Thanks for your review, Mark. Mystic Woodlands Lodge is still relatively undiscovered in the area. It's spaciousness and remote feeling in the beautiful Lincoln National Forest make it a real hidden gem, as others have commented. Please come again anytime. And thanks for all your great suggestions.

Excellent Family Location

We've stayed in a few different locations in Cloudcroft over the years, and this has to be the best. For a family of 6 wanting something somewhat secluded, this was the perfect place. Even though there were house close by, the neighborhood was extra quiet. We will hopefully be back to this spot again soon!

Peaceful

Very beautiful house, in a great and quiet neighborhood, so relaxing and peaceful. It was fun, its still really pretty in cloudcroft. Didnt see much wildlife was the only downside, and the kingsize bed did not sleep comfortably, it was wore out on one side really bad.

Thank you for your review! We're so glad you enjoyed our special place in the mountains, and you discovered Cloudcroft -- a real hidden gem! It turns out, the bed had a dropped slat underneath. It was a quick fix. Thank you again for your review.

The cabin was beautiful, very quiet and peaceful, some of the written rules on the fridge conflict with some of the rules that were e-mailed by owner, no big problem, just an oversight. Deserves a 5.

Overall positive experience, but communication was delayed. Didn’t respond to call and voice message. Use the app and expect to wait a few hours for a response.

My first experience.

I was a little nervous to rent someone else’s home at first. They made this entire process as smooth as possible. I knew what to expect from the beginning. This property is as gorgeous as the pictures. They had lots of amenities to make this experience very family oriented. My only bit of advice for the next renters is to take a screenshot of the internet password and door lock code prior to going to the house. When we pulled up, I thought I would be able to open my messages to retrieve the information but without internet access then I wasn’t able to. I had to drive into Cloudcroft so that I could get internet to retrieve the information. So silly on my part but I didn’t think about that until it was too late. This was an amazing experience and I would highly recommend this property!!

Thank you for your super-helpful response. Taking a screenshot of the internet password and door lock code prior to going to the house is a great idea. By knowing the internet password when you arrive, you can login to the WiFi while standing at the door to retrieve all the information you received, but having that screenshot of the door code will allow you to go right in. Brilliant! Thank you!
