This cabin is so cute and clean. The hosts were so thoughtful and made this so welcoming. They left snacks and water, making this our home away from home
Wonderful experience. The cabin was very comfortable & welcoming. The view from the balcony is spectacular! The entire cabin was really clean. We would recommend this vacation home to everyone!
We loved the place! The cabin was sweet, clean and well equipped!The patio with propane fire pit was wonderful. It did get a little warm in bedroom, upstairs, as there is no air-conditioning..just FYI.Host was great to communicate with!
We were only able to stay one night, but this is a great cabin in a beautiful location - it feels like you have the whole mountain to yourself. Will visit again!
It was a wonderful stay. Only wish it could have been longer for us. Awesome mountain tree view. Hummingbirds and other pretty birds. Saw an elk. Just beware - NO Cell Phone Service - Until you get onto the WiFi. It was fun trying to meet up with other family in the area . Definitely want to plan on staying again and hopefully several more times.
Very nice little cabin just a few miles outside of Cloudcroft which we were looking for - lots of peace and quiet. Back of cabin had a lot of the biggest and most beautiful blue birds we had ever seen. Check in was a breeze - enjoyed our stay!
Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025

Thank you both much! We certainly enjoyed hosting y’all. Btw, The blue birds are called Stellar Jays.
Great rustic cabin, very quiet location up a 1 lane private track. Near to cloudcroft. Had a great 1 day/2 night stay. Breakfast provided, which was nice (eggs, sausage, pancake mix). Slept our family of six easily. My kids got a kick out of the composting toilet. I’d stay again.
This is a cool off the grid cabin in the NM mountains. Birds, elk, squirrels, and humming birds. Check in is very easy. There is a gate with a remote to get to a forest road.
The place was clean and welcoming. Just wished the light bulbs in the ceiling had covers—too bright! Or have a floor lamp or table lamp. Otherwise everything just fine.
Very cute and cozy. Clean and simple.Tons of amenities.Becky and husband went over and beyond making sure our stay was comfortable.Road-driveway a little freaky with the high side drop , but TG wasn’t muddy and no incidents.Highly recommend this cabin. Only regret was staying 1night, as would have like to explore some of the trails and the lower firepit.Thx Becky.
