About this property
Whispering Pines has great deck, hot tub & fire pit. Close to downtown & slopes.
RECENTLY UPDATED. Whispering Pines Retreat has a large deck that is elevated so you can truly enjoy the forest views and nature that frequent the area. The side entrance only has 5 steps down to the deck so no heavy climbing required. Besides the wonderful views, you can enjoy a soothing time in the hot tub or relaxing by the fire after a long day exploring. You can spread out on the wrap-around deck with lots of great space for hanging out with friends and family, including a comfy sofa with fire pit and a propane grill where you can prepare some sizzling steaks or burgers for everyone to enjoy. If you like to play pool, ping pong or want to grab a game of cornhole, go on down to the garage game room and have some fun.
The entire cabin exudes the mountain feel that Ruidoso has become so popular for, with a touch of modern conveniences to enhance your stay. The kitchen provides all the basic necessities you’ll need and an open floor plan that makes it easy to socialize with everyone, whether playing games at the table, chilling by the fireplace or whipping up a meal. You will feel the charm from all the detailed updates that make Whispering Pines the perfect home away from home. Enjoy the little nook in the kitchen for your morning coffee provided with coffee, creamers and sweeteners to make it your own.
The roomy master bedroom has a king size bed and a comfy couch to cozy up to the fireplace and enjoy a movie. The second and third bedrooms have queen size beds. The cabin has central heating and air conditioning and ceiling fans in every room, but on those nice nights there's nothing better than snuggling up under your covers and falling asleep to the cool mountain air coming through the windows and waking up to great forest views. There's plenty of room to get ready in the morning with two full baths with walk-in showers in the hall and a full bath in the master, each one furnished with a shampoo/soap dispenser and hair dryer. This cabin is very tastefully decorated and will surely be a place you'll want to return to time and time again. To make you feel right at home, we've provided Smart TVs with ROKU, a phone charging station, free WiFi and a washer/dryer for your convenience. So drop your cares at the door and come enjoy all that Ruidoso has to offer.
Whispering Pines Retreat is just minutes away from downtown where you can enjoy shopping, bars, great food and live entertainment. There are also many outdoor activities like skiing, snow tubing, ziplining, as well as hiking, fishing and golfing. You can place your bet on your favorite horse at the Ruidoso Downs Race Track or try your hand at the local casinos. Pillow's Funtrackers is a great place for the kids which has go-karts, mini golf and a maze. There is something to do for everyone and it's fun for all ages!
