Amazing!
I've stayed in a few rental properties in Ruidoso and this place was absolutely impeccable. Not a spot or dust to be found. The cleaning crew did an amazing job (shout out to, Pam!) The house itself is absolutely appropriate for a family, with two beds and two baths. The master room bed is really comfortable but the other bed was not (sorry, kids!) The house provided towels for the hot tub, laundry detergent, sponges for dishes, and dishwasher pods. For the price, it was way better than more expensive properties we've stayed at. The biggest downfall is the fence outside is broken with a quick fall to the road beneath. I was nervous to let the kids play out front. If this was fixed, it would definitely be a 10/10 for every aspect. If you go when it's snowing, it can be a scary drive up (make sure you check the weather), but the views were amazing. Can't wait to come back.

Short getaway in the mountains
My mom, son and I enjoyed a short getaway in the mountains. We were pleased with the accommodations but the only thing that lingered was a bad smell of smoke or very strong odor. The hot tub was a hit and we enjoyed the view.

The property is nestled far away to give you peace and quiet, but close enough to enjoy whatever is happening down town, or run errands. It’s very clean and cozy.

My Granddaughter took me on vacation and the cabin we stayed at was perfect. We had everything we needed and it was located in just the right spot. The cabin sits on a hill so you can see the most beautiful sunsets and stars from the hot tub. It was clean and comfortable.

Birthday weekend get away.
My husband and I wanted to rent a vacation home (specifically one with a hot tub) and just get away from everything for a few days. We didn’t have a huge budget for this though so finding anywhere in Texas was difficult, everywhere was overbooked. Rented this affordable little home a day before we left, the whole process was so simple. The property owner was incredibly nice and helpful,we only had to communicate via email and the property itself was more than accommodating with extra towels , hotel soaps, pans and dishes to use and a washer/dryer if needed. They even provided single use containers of laundry detergent and the bookshelves had plenty of books to chose from if you want to read, they had scrabble and uno there also. WiFi signal was great, cable tv so you can watch the news or sports if you want. Hot tub and grill were both very well maintained and ready to use. It’s perfectly secluded enough that you have total peace without being so far into the wild you’re sharing the hot tub with a bear.the trip to Ruidoso shopping /food was less than 20 minutes. This is far from my 1st vacation rental and the 2nd I’ve booked in Ruidoso (that’s really the only kind of lodging I’ll do)But it’s definitely one of the easiest nicest ones I’ve stayed in , in a long time.
