Great Stay!
Right from the start, the host was very communicative and friendly. The property far exceeded our expectations. The house was very clean and had everything we could ask for. The location was great considering we had pets with immediate access to undeveloped areas. This also yielded amazing wildlife views right outside our windows. We would definitely book this property again!

Nice getaway
Overall we really enjoyed our stay and even saw elk and a wild horse in the mornings. We enjoyed the hot tub and quiet location. It was close to town and easy to find. It took a few minutes to understand the heaters but we got it running and warmed up. The floor plan is different: the ground floor has bedrooms and bathrooms then upstairs to get to living room and kitchen and another set of stairs leads to an office/loft space with couches and chairs. It’s a little older but had WiFi and Roku tv and any necessities we needed were provided. Overall, a great getaway and place to stay!

23rd wedding anniversary
Cabin was wonderful. Heating and AC. Very well equipped kitchen. Smart TVs in every room that are easy to use. Walked outside to deer one morning but did not have phone in hand for pictures. Plenty of room and a ton of space for sitting and visiting. We’ll be back. Thank you Dennis for the great communication and again a great place to stay.

I am skipping this
Impressed with how clean it was. Had some difficulty with tv. My friend wanted to watch football, but could never make it work. Probably just us as we feel challenged technologically.

The cabin to stay at in Ruidoso
My family and I stayed here during a weekend baseball tournament. I must say...it was clean, quaint, quiet and comfy. The hosts were excellent at communicating and thought of everything. They make it easy, so you can enjoy your stay stress-free. Although we didn't get a chance to use the fire pit, we really enjoyed our evening in the hot tub. Seeing the Deer/Doe made it extra special. We would definitely stay here again. I highly recommend the Northstar. Thank you Dennis and Donna.

Host profile image
We’ve travelled to Ruidoso for almost 50 years and absolutely love it. We came for the skiing, horse racing, golf, shopping and the general sense peace offered by the enchanting pines and quaint village. We are now retired and find ourselves fortunate enough to have a home here in this little piece of heaven and are we’re eager to share it with you. Come stay at the Northern Star and enjoy everything Ruidoso has to offer.

Our full-time home is in Roanoke, Texas. We love to go camping and fishing and enjoy the great outdoors. We have been married 47 years and have one energetic 7 year old grandson who keeps us busy. Hopefully we can meet you in Ruidoso sometime. Y’all come.
