Comfortable and Serene

This home was convenient, clean and comfortable. It was well stocked. The wrap around porch was nice but had limited seating. The master bedroom was roomy and the bathroom area with 2 sinks was nice. The beds were comfortable. The entrance had just a few steps and the driveway was level.

Clean and Great Location

My family and I had an amazing vacation at this cabin! This was the cleanest place we have stayed in a long time. Everything was as stated in the listing. This home backs up to the Lincoln Forest with beautiful views of the trees and we were able to see many animals on our stay. The location was close to town, but still in a place that felt a little more secluded. It was in a very quiet area. We will definitely book here again if we return to the area.

A nice retreat

Thanks for letting us stay at your cabin. This trip was long but once we were able to get into bed, it was relaxing. The property was a little difficult to get to, and since we came in super late/early, we had to figure out some things on our own (Jesus sent maps that made so much sense...the next day). Once we were able to navigate to the right path, we understood that there is only one way to get up the slick hill and to the cabin. We also got stuck each morning in the driveway but I blame myself for those. Otherwise, the property was delightful. We had some older kids that wanted some separation and this place was (somehow) great for that. Perfect for gathering, as well as getting comfortable and waking up to horses on the back of the property each morning definitely helped with that. I'm not sure about the others but the king bed was super firm and I expected worse sleep. Surprisingly, I woke up super refreshed each morning. The water was nice and warm but I might suggest adding some basics like onion/garlic powder for cooking. Something to note for those going to ski cloudcroft -- check conditions first. We rented this property with the hopes of skiing 10 minutes away and while there was snow, it wasn't enough to open the majority of the mountain. We ended up driving and hour and a half each day to ski Apache. Still a great time though!

Wonderful Cabin in Cloudcroft

We had a very relaxing few days at this cabin. The only negative was the snow caused a major issue getting out of the driveway. We were told that if we didn't have a 4 wheel drive vehicle, there was an alternate route to get to the cabin. BUT, we couldn't get out of the actual driveway in our van. Otherwise, it was FANTASTIC!!!!

Much Needed Mountain Getaway

This was our first time to stay here. Everything was just as we hoped and since it was just my Spouse and I we had plenty of room. It wasn’t hard to spend almost all of our time outside on the deck enjoying the cool weather and deer and elk that would come by. The street out front was very rocky and rutted from the rain, so we just took it slow when pulling up or leaving. Would definitely come back here again!

Beautiful, Quiet Retreat

This place was great! Cozy little home with beautiful scenery. The only thing to keep in mind is that it sits on a road with a steep slope so 4x4 is strongly advised and it’s better to get to it from the top road. The owner is very friendly and responds quickly. Would definitely stay again!

Cloudcroft Gem

This was the perfect house for my little family to visit our favorite NM town of Cloudcroft. Directions made it very easy to find the place (thank you!). The kitchen was stocked with your basic needs (PS don't bring k-cups!). The large deck was lovely to sit on in the evenings. We saw lots of deer right up to the fence of the property, which the kids loved. Room for 3 cars, is accurate. Home is a little on the older side, but don't let that change your mind. It is was great for a weekend getaway for us.
