Communication with the host was excellent and the home was perfect for our Thanksgiving stay with our kids and grandkids. Loved that the home had lots of living/dining areas to relax in. Kitchen was well stocked.

Great place
We had a group of 11 and stayed in the house. We felt there was plenty of room and space. We had no problem getting an early check in. Would stay here again
We were in town for a softball tournament. The cabin was very spacious for multiple families and the decor was amazing! The communication with the property manager was easy and they were quick with responses. We enjoyed our stay and would absolutely recommend!
It was just such a blessing we got to feed deers that came to the house and wild horses we saw an elk and it was just amazing the kid cabin was adored by all the kids
We had an amazing time at the Quiet Ruidoso Hideaway. It was very spacious and super clean. The best part was sitting in the living room with the family and being mesmerized by the awesome decor. Waking up in the morning, and looking out the windows at the spectacular views of Ruidoso was an added bonus. The host does a great job of leaving messages around the house to help with your stay. Our party of 12 had a fabulous time.
This family cabin was excellent! Plenty of room for our whole group, 4 adults and 6 kids. Great location for all Ruidoso activities, right in the center of town. We actually got a foot of snow the night before we were supposed to leave and were snowed in. No worries, plenty to do right there, watching deer right on the property, building snowmen, and sledding! The owner was super responsive when we had to extend our stay. Thanks so much!

Excellent place! My family and I loved the place and it was perfect for a little family getaway.
This property was simply amazing! We had a group off 11 ranging from 65 down to 3 and it was perfect for everyone. The kids had a blast at the kids cabin and the adults enjoyed the patio with a beautiful view. Communication with the owner was so easy! She was available at all times for any questions we had. I hope to be able to visit again soon!

Great cabin!!
We booked this cabin for our whole family to stay in one place and enjoy the week in the mountains! It was a great fit for all of us- outside place for our hammocks and a play house for the littles- we had a great time. Everything we needed plus!

Lovely Home
This house is obviously loved by the owners and it shows. You can see the thoughtfulness in how everything is set up. The owner is very responsive and communicative. It was great for our large family and near lots of fun things to do.
It was a great time being able to have the entire family under one roof. The home was clean and spacious. The surrounding forest and neighborhood was quiet and the wildlife was incredible.

Rest and Relaxation
This is the second time my family and I stay at this amazing cabin. Each time we have stayed we have enjoyed this home away from home. The cabin was clean and extremely spacious for our group. We have created wonderful memories here and look forward to returning in the future.
Also, renters were readily available and flexible. We appreciated their availability for our needs.

lodging
all very well, only the only drawback we had was that with the refrigeration we could not cope, we could not sleep at night because of the heat it was doing
We rented this property during Christmas and we were absolutely disgusted by the upkeep of the property. The first thing that we noticed is that all the furniture was very filthy and looked like to was brough over from the street. The next thing that we noticed was the entire kitchen was in disarray and all the utensil drawers were just a jumble of things. The dishes and glasses seemed unclean and we had to clean everything before using. The trash was full and not emptied. The heating was not even in all the rooms as some of the vents were closed off. This property is not intended for 7 people to take showers in the morning as the hot water ran out after 2 people showered. And the towels provided were old and raggedy. I can go on and on but the bottom line is that this property was absolutely filthy on the inside and we were all very disgusted by it.
