Mountain getaway

Great visit to Cloudcroft. Cabin was as expected and was in a great location and very private. AC in upstairs bedroom was great for sleeping since the temps during the day were warm. Had a few minor texhnical difficulties with TV and grill and the host was very responsive and great to work with.Overall great stay and would return.

Perfect get-away space

My husband, our two greyhounds and I spent several days here and loved every moment. There were several thoughtful touches, such as writing a welcome sign for us, leaving a bottle of wine, etc... The locations is close to central Cloudcroft so easy to get to restaurants and hiking trails but secluded enough to be a quiet and relaxing. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful location

The location is beautiful, Cloudcroft is a cute little mountain town! The house is a bit dated but has a great mountain cottage feel. The upstairs bathroom was the biggest drawback as it had draining issues in the sink and shower but other than that everything was great.

Oh no! Sorry to hear about the draining issues, I wish you’d have told us real time so we could have gotten it taken care of right then, but we’ll get it looked at asap now.

Cozy Mountain Cottage

We loved our stay in Cloudcroft. The cottage was cozy and comfortable. There is a small treehouse with a slide just outside. There were deer and wild horses outside the window. You could easily walk into town for dinner. And the host really went above and beyond to get an item that we left in there back to us.

Weekend getaway in the mountains

We had a wonderful time in the cabin with our fur babies. Great accomodations, cozy and welcoming. Great communication from the hosts. Everything we could need was there including games, dog treats and a welcome bottle of wine! We will come again in the summer. Thank you, we made great memories.

Delightful stay in the small mountain town

The cozy cottage lived up to its name during our stay. The hosts provided ample games for our family game nights after we had toured the town. We also found the space heaters and fans helpful for meeting the varying temperature preferences within our travel party. Our family also enjoyed the daily visit from the local deer out back. Thank you Mason & Lauren for allowing us to stay in your home. We hope to stay with you again in the future.

Thank you so much for the kind review. If I could give you more than five stars as a guest I would’ve. You guys were amazing. Our cleaning crew told me that they wish all our guests left the house in the condition you guys did. Thank you for treating our home like your own. We do hope you come and stay with us again.

Nice Escape

Wife and I spent a wonder week in Cloudcroft. The cabin was comfortable and good location. There is some road noise but tolerable. The cabin itself is dated but a very cozy place in all the beautiful trees. Enjoyed walking our dogs around the neighborhood. Thanks Mason.

Getaway in the Clouds

We went to escape Texas’ triple digits. Wished we could’ve stayed longer in the cool mountain air! We enjoyed sitting on the back deck with our dog and enjoyed so much about the place. Good communication. Good location close to everything but hidden away enough that there’s only mild road noise.

Great stay!

We were on a work retreat. The internet was reliable and fast. The cottage was comfortable and homey. The stairs were a little steep and if you are tall (really tall), you have to watch your head in a few places. The hosts were WONDERFUL and SUPER RESPONSIVE!!! They were so great and helped make our stay even more wonderful. I would highly recommend these owners and this cottage.
