The house is lovey and spacious. It was so nice to have king beds and a private bathroom in each bedroom. Kitchen had everything we needed. The porches were wonderful. We enjoyed watching the deer, elk, and wild horses. Very walkable location in midtown.

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the comfort of the king beds and en-suite bathrooms—those little luxuries can make all the difference. The porches are one of our favorite parts too, especially with all the wildlife passing by—what a treat to see deer, elk, and even wild horses! And we’re glad the walkable location made exploring Midtown easy and fun. We’d love to have you back anytime!
New and convenient to everything Ruidoso has to offer. Perfect for families. Just as described… new and stocked with the essentials! Beds were comfy! Had extra soft blankets all over the house for those crisp cool nights! Definitely a great location with easy access to everything! About the only thing we could say is if you are a bath person it’s a small tub… but still works for those needs! Swanky and beautiful cabin! Would definitely rent again!
