Beautiful cabin in Ruidoso
Beautiful, spacious, and perfectly located cabin in Ruidoso. Within walking distance to all the restaurants and shopping downtown! The cabin offered anything that we needed from a well-supplied kitchen to board games and the laundry machine. We had an awesome stay and we'll definitely stay again for our next trip in Ruidoso!

Beautiful cabin, great location!
This cabin is so cozy and welcoming, it feels just like home. It's spacious and very clean. Very cute, themed rooms. Tons of family games! Perfect getaway for families. Very well stocked with dishes and cooking supplies (i.e. pans, pots, utensils, etc.) Beautiful area, walking distance to town, river near by. Absolutely perfect. New favorite getaway cabin, for sure! Will be coming back SOON, and again, and AGAIN. Thank you for all the small details that mean so much!

Clean, cozy, and great location
The cabin was extremely clean and put-together when I arrived, as well as really well-decorated. Everything worked as expected without any issues, including internet and TV. It's also extremely close to town, and specifically, the shopping district. If you wanted to do some shopping or have some good food or drinks, it is less than a five minute drive, and not a very far walk. I would definitely stay here again!
