This is an amazing cabin located near downtown Ruidoso.

This cabin had plenty of space for my family. It is very peaceful with plenty of seating on the porch to relax. The owner communicated well and ensured that we had everything we needed. I highly recommend staying at Sleepy Bear Cabin. You won't regret it!

Great place to stay

My family and I very much enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful and had been updated. We will definitely stay there again. The only issue we had was in the days leading to our stay, I emailed the contact person for the rental and never got a response. This lack of follow through made us feel like the company didn’t care about us.

Sleepy Bear

Exactly as advertised with nice additional touches and great communication from owner. Everything we needed was there when we arrived. Very clean pace with lots of added care to make this a great property. Many deer and elk to see in the neighborhood. We would definitely rent this property again. Thanks Miguel.

Wilds horses everywhere

The Sleepy Bear cabin was great! My kids wnjoyed getting to play on the deck with the yard games and see all the wildlife!! We saw wild horses every day along with deer and elk. The only issues was that the cabin was not stocked with as much cookware as we needed such as a sheet pan or pizza pan. We made what was there work though and enjoyed cooking outside on the grill

Great stay

We really enjoyed our stay here. Everything was very clean and modern, and the kitchen was well equipped. The location is very central and easy to access (flat and spacious driveway). We saw deer and Elk from the cabin.
