We had a wonderful stay here! The property was clean and welcoming. LOVED the scavenger hunt the owners had set up. Such a great location, and lots of wildlife sightings, the kids even hand-fed the deer apples & carrots from the porch which was very cool. Views were incredible and the house had everything we needed to make an easy comfortable stay!

Thank you for such a lovely review! We're so glad your stay was comfortable and easy, and that the scavenger hunt was a hit with the family. The wildlife sightings and hand-feeding the deer from the porch sound like such a special memory, and it's wonderful to hear the views and location added so much to your trip. Hope you come back soon

Our small family (3 generations) of six go to Ruidoso annually for a long weekend in the fall. This is the best place we have ever stayed! The house was just as nice as the impression the pictures give. Phillip is awesome in communication and responsiveness! Everything was clean, the beds are comfortable and we were impressed with all the “little touches” and the thoughtful amenities included. It’s roomy and homey with TVs in each room and lots of games to choose from. Several of us were addicted to the ring on the hook game. The scenery is wonderful, and you can sit on the deck or even in the living room and have a completely unobstructed view. We are certainly hoping to make this our “go to” place each year.

We're s So glad your family's annual Ruidoso trip was such a great experience. I enjoyed chatting with you and glad we found a solution to that one grumpy TV! By next year the outside will look completely different with the remodel going on. Thanks for your patience on the construction and glad you will be back!

Great place to relax, while being close to local attractions. The home was like being at our own home, very well equipped. The host has it setup for family fun. Wildlife viewing was superb - deer, elk, turkey and hummingbirds!

Ruidoso Spring Break

Great place to stay! Close to shopping and restaurants and not too far from Winter Park and Ski Apache. There were deer and elk in the mornings and we also saw some wild horses. Hot tub was nice at night to relax and the propane grill was great for steak night.

A Ruidoso mountain gem!

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was cozy and had everything we needed for our family of six. It had that mountain cabin feel with nice touches like heated blankets for every bed and sound machines in each room (necessary for our littles to sleep). We will definitely look to stay here in the future!

2nd time we have booked this property because the first time was great. Second time was just as enjoyable and they even added a few extra fun things to the property as well. Our family loves the cabin and we hope to keep the yearly visits to Memories Mountain as a new tradition

Wonderful Cabin

We had a wonderful stay at the “Mountain Memories Retreat”. Everything was clean & well stocked. The hot tub had the best view of all - it was so nice to sit out in it during sunset and sunrise! The owner was responsive and kind throughout the whole process. The location is great also, just a few minutes from downtown and 12 mins to the horse track. It was a perfect getaway for our family of 4.
