A wonderful property, had everything we needed and more. The owners were attentive and made sure the stay was perfect and checked in on us while we were there to see if we needed anything! Would recommend this property to anyone who is visiting the Ruidoso area!!
The property was well furnished the deck was amazing overall best place we have stayed in Ruidoso throughout the 15yrs of going there! Will be renting this listing every time we return!
The deck views are wonderful! We loved our stay. The house is very comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. We were 5 min from a golf course that was fun to play. The house and deck were absolutely spotless!Owners were easy to contact and the YouTube video about the house was very helpful. Great idea.

From the owner: "Charles, we so appreciate you and your lovely wife visiting our cabin! We hope you’ll return! Thank you for your feedback!"
This is a beautiful and very clean place. Decorated beautifully with everything you need. Stunnng views. There were five girls in our party and each of us had a bed of our own and four of us had our own bedroom. The only thing I would say is there are quite a few stairs so you should be aware of that. We were all in our 70s and made it just fine. We will be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here, house was VERY clean, beds were super comfortable. Only thing that would make it even better is a hot tub, otherwise we would highly recommend this property.

Great place to stay. Awesome views!! Love this property.
If there is weather (snow) you will need all wheel drive or 4 wheel drive to get to this property.
Don and Dawn were lovely to speak with. Their home is in a peaceful neighborhood and has gorgeous views. Their home is clean and cozy and we will most definitely recommend this home to family and friends.
Great location. Beautiful Mountain View from front deck. Very clean and all the necessities! Elk every evening and morning! Will definitely be back next trip!

Very clean and cozy cabin!
My husband and I spend one night at the cabin and loved how cozy and nice it was. Very clean, loved the fire place! Beautiful views of the mountains and we got to see some wildlife while looking out on the patio. The hostess is very kind and checked in to see if we were enjoying our stay and if we needed anything. I’d recommend this place for a weekend get away to just relax and enjoy some peace and quiet.
The owners were incredible communicators. Everything was laid out and easy to follow for check in. The house was perfect. Very clean and attractive. We could not have asked for a better spot to stay.
The place was fantastic! From the elk in the yard, to the views, to the convenience to everything in town. The house was well equipped. Communication with the owner was outstanding and she was very accommodating. We will book again
This home is beautiful just like the pictures. Super clean and spacious. Bring food and drinks you will find everything for cooking indoor or outdoor. We recommend this home
