Exceptionally Nice Home and Grounds with all the amenities and great location. Very clean with 3 Kings and 3 Full baths with plenty of space to entertain both in and outside on the multiple decks with new grill and hot tub. Large Living and Kitchen with TV's in every room make this place a destination that should not be passed up as every detail has been meticulously considered!

Wonderful home! Very clean!

We enjoyed the home and the accommodations very much! The home was very clean and suited our needs well with all 3 bedrooms having comfy king beds & a bathroom for each. We enjoyed the patios with morning coffee & watching the deer, as well as, the hot tub and new gas grill in the evening. We will definitely be back!

Great getaway

This cabin was just as described. It was the perfect place for a getaway. The cabin was spacious and clean. Three king beds along with 3 full baths gives everyone their own space. The hot tub was a nice touch. We spent a good amount of time on the back porch, watching the hummingbirds and looking for deer. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Family Vacation!

This house had everything we needed and more. The open floor space with the kitchen and living area was great! All 3 bedrooms had very comfortable beds, so the family got great sleep, which was nice after skiing all day. The best was getting back from skiing and all jumping in the hot tub and seeing deer walking up to us as we were in the hot tub. My kids even named the deer! We plan on rebooking this house for the summer to do Ruidoso again for the summer activities.

The property is nice. But we were shocked and disappointed to see the steep gravel road and hill going down to the cabin. If you mentioned that on your website we didn't see it. You definitely need to let potential visitors know l.
