The master suite is a true retreat, boasting an oversized jetted bathtub, a cozy fireplace, and a private deck where you can sip your morning coffee in peace. Multiple deck areas offer ample space to soak up the fresh air and mountain scenery all year round, making outdoor enjoyment part of everyday life.
Guests will also have access to the garage for added convenience. With central air conditioning, Longhorn Vista is ready to keep you comfortable no matter the season. Embrace the beauty of Sierra Blanca and make unforgettable memories at Longhorn Vista. Book your stay and experience a retreat like no other!
Longhorn Vista is located within a 3-minute walk to Ace in the Hole and Cobblestone Cottage for larger group accommodations.
Ruidoso, Alto, and surrounding areas: Submerse yourself within the towering pines of Lincoln County and watch local wildlife such as elk, deer, wild horses, turkey, birds, and more in their natural habitats. Plan a day basking in the stillness of our national forest while hiking, biking, or fishing, golfing at one of our multiple golf courses or spend a fun night out on the town at one of the area's local attractions! Be sure to swim or fish at the beautiful Grindstone or Alto Lake, delight your senses at Winter Park with roller coaster and tubing, and explore the ski slopes and hiking trails throughout Ski Apache. Win big at one of our three local casinos and enjoy the excitement of live quarter horse racing at Ruidoso Downs Racetrack. Be happy you took a respite from the concrete jungle. Come relax and refresh with us!
