About this property

A Vintage Retreat within earshot of Rio Ruidoso -10 min walk to Midtown Ruidoso.

Our home was originally built in1940. My husband and I have spent the last few years rebuilding it from the ground up, literally. (mostly my husband.) We wanted to save it! It's a lovely place! An historic house, in a magnificent spot! We are a 10 minute walk from Midtown Ruidoso, with wineries, breweries, live bands and many shops. Game trails surround us, so you can view deer, elk, and the occasional bear walk down to the nearby Rio Ruidoso river for a drink. They walk right past our house! We are close to pretty much anything you can think of. Skiing, just 45 minutes away, in the magical Sierra Blanca Mountains. Fish from a list of nearby lakes and streams. Hiking is endless from contained trails in town, to mountaintop trails deep in the woods. You can even go horseback riding! You will love the view out our front windows and you'll have 3 different patios to choose from, while listening to the burble of the Rio Ruidoso. The beds are comfortable and you'll enjoy central cooling and heating. You will love our place!
If you're ever in Arizona, we have a VRBO place near Flagstaff, in a town called "Parks". Our listing number is 2016190. Look us up.
Disclaimer:
We do not recommend our house for the mobility impaired. The steps are steep and the grounds around the place are uneven. It is not a good match for the mobility impaired. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Sincerely,
Veronica

About the host

Hosted by Veronica Ott

Host profile image
We are a family of 3, who truly enjoy the outdoors! My husband is a newly retired Fire Captain and I am a retired elementary school teacher. We've been together for 37 years and married for 32. My husband loves to hunt, build classic cars and go racing! I generally like to spend the majority of my time outdoors, on the mountain, hiking, foraging for mushrooms, and just being a naturalist. We also love spending as much time as we can with our16 year old daughter! (We wish she felt the same way, though. lol)

Why they chose this property

We bought this property, so we could get out of the Arizona heat during the summer and be closer to family. We decided to make it a vacation rental, so it doesn't get lonely and use the acquired funds to help keep the property up.

What makes this property unique

This place is awesome because it feels like you are in a rural area of the woods, with wildlife all around, yet are only a 10 minute walk from town. We absolutely love it here!
