The house was absolutely beautiful and spacious, with plenty of room for two families with kids! The bedrooms were very roomy with large, comfortable beds, and the views were amazing throughout the day. The temperature inside stayed perfect, the kitchen was an absolute dream, and the TVs had everything toddlers, teenagers, and adults could want!The house was nearly perfect, with just a couple of small things that could make an already wonderful stay even better. We did notice a lingering cigarette smoke smell, particularly on the bottom floor. As a family of nonsmokers, it was a little more noticeable to us, and some of our belongings carried the smell home. We also encountered a few more ants and spiders than we would have liked. We completely understand that comes with staying in such a beautiful wooded setting, but a little extra pest control might help, especially since the ants seemed to take a liking to our toiletries one day!That being said, I would 100% stay here again! It truly was the perfect house for our first trip to Ruidoso. Close enough to town for convenience, but far enough away to feel like we were tucked away in the mountains. The space, incredible views, and overall comfort made it such a wonderful getaway for our families. We made great memories here and would happily return!
