Amazing Property!

This home is beautiful with fantastic views! The road to get to the remote cabin is rocky- but that reduces the amount of traffic. We will definitely plan on staying here again!

Great Views!

Very nice and spacious cabin with super views of the Sierra Blanca mountains. Very peaceful with lots of room to roam and explore. The only drawback is the road up to the cabin was a little treacherous. But worth the drive up!

Family & Friends Getaway!

This was our 2nd time at this beautiful property! We all enjoyed our own rooms with bathrooms, and all the room of the 2 full living areas. WOW! We were able to ride our motorcycles right out of the properties driveway and ride for hours in the Lincoln National Forest. Meals are a breeze with the huge kitchen and outdoor grill. Lots of deck room and of course the amazing hot tub and its views we spectacular! We will return again!

Amazing Family Vacation

One of the most impressive things about this property where the views. My family and I watch the sunset every night we were there. We also loved the hot tub and Lookout point. Having the two separate houses worked out well. My older children enjoyed being able to use it to get away from the younger kids. We had several couples on this trip and had plenty of room. We really enjoyed having the multiple levels with separate kitchens. I was very pleased with the property and would recommend it to friends and family.

Awesome hideaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place was awesome for my family reunion in the mountains. The trek up there was a bit intense as it's very rocky, however, the view from the top was absolutely stunning. I also loved that there were no other houses around which allowed us to turn the music up as loud as we wanted. My family has already asked me to book this again for next summer because we absolutely loved it.

Thanks for the feedback, Maria! We always love hearing back from our guests, for any reason, really, but particularly when they've had an enjoyable stay. The road is a little precarious, but we agree... it's worth it once you get up there and realize all that the property has to offer. :) Hope to see you next time! -The Condotel Staff

You are definitely getting a large house with a great view! And we appreciate that they addressed the minor hot tub situation right away with helpful communication. Bravo there and thank you!For the price, we were surprised that the beds were not great, there was wear and tear throughout the house (including broken railings on the 2nd floor porch), and it wasn't thoroughly cleaned. If you looked deeper than just the sink or tub, it was dirty, trash unchanged, or items left under beds, etc. Lastly, there was a lack of amenities for 14 people staying in a large home. Although a few items were provided, with 14 people eating, using toilet paper, etc., we bought trash bags, dish soap - basic items that would have been helpful to have on-hand. For the price, this was a surprise.

The appearance of the property was beautiful. It “looked” clean but it was not. The floor looked like it wasn’t even vacuumed the couch on the main floor was disgusting, there was dog hair all over the beds. The air conditioner in the guest house didn’t work, and there was no hot water either. The kitchen refrigerator downstairs in the main house was broken. And for some reason instead of leaving bathroom products in the master bath there were 2 packages of dishwasher detergent. They need to look into a new cleaning company and perform a major inspection to this property. There were quite a few outlets in the kitchen that did not work as well. If this property was properly cared for it would be an excellent choice to rent. The views were amazing and it had a bed for everyone that joined our trip.

Mountain house

We liked staying here. It was great to see the animals every morning. But the house could have been deep cleaned better. There was still crumbs on the kitchen counters and the smell of food. I guess from the previous renter. There was still food on the kitchen floors that were not swept up. If a cleaning company is used then I would suggest finding someone else! The outside patio needed some furniture. It would have been nice to be outside to eat and have coffee. The road up to the house was crazy! They need to try to fix it better. We were in a truck and it was still pretty bad.

Beautiful views

The house is beautiful and the views are amazing. That is the saving grace for the home.The rental did not feel worth the amount of money we paid to stay here. We paid almost 4K to stay for 4 days and felt ripped off. The couch is absolutely disgusting, please clean it or get a new couch. The sheets are itchy and rough, pillows are flat and old. I don’t think anyone in the family slept well one night. I think the boxes for the TV’s were extremely old, like 20yrs old. No wonder the Tv in the master was stuck on one channel. Overall we just felt disappointed by the amount of money we paid for what we received. Again, it’s a beautiful property and great for big families, but details matter. When you pay that much money, sheets should be clean/high quality, pillows should be decent, and you should be able to sit on the furniture without feeling dirty afterwards. We would stay here again if updates and improvements were made.

Victoria, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear we did not meet your expectations. The sheets are professionally laundered so we can guarantee they are clean for every guest. The couch has been cleaned since your stay and we will share your feedback about the TV's. We hope to host you again in the future.

Beautiful place!

The house was beautiful, pictures don’t do it justice! Plenty of towels were provided and the living and dining area was a perfect set up to keep a big group together for games and entertainment. The location was nice and secluded however the drive up the road was very bumpy with a lot of huge rocks to be careful of. You need a tall vehicle to get there without fear of car damage.

Happy with log cabin

Cabin was great for our group: 4 parents and 12 kids of various ages. The kitchen was perfect for cooking all our meals. I do recommended they add a Keurig coffee maker. The road is rough but our vans got up just fine. Great layout for a big group.

Beautiful house, very well equipped, big

We enjoyed our stayed, the only thing is that the pictures showed one room with two bunk beds, which ended up being just a queen bed. The road to the house during the winter is rough. You do need 4x4 or chains. Will return for sure.

Spacious

Spacious and comfortable as can be. The few issues I ran across were : I was not given an access code to the conjoined cabin so I was unable to access it until about five hours after check in. There was no propane for the grill There was no deck furniture for the outside deck so we could not use it. Getting a hold of someone through both the phone line and emergency line was not possible. The maintenance man eventually called us back to resolve the key pad issue. Other than these minor issues cabin was beautiful and equiped with everything a family can need.

Great get away!

The location was great! Away from traffic, and high in the mountain.The road up was kind of scary the first time going up which isn’t explained in any of the descriptions, I could only imagine how it is during the snow.Two rooms were located in a guest house, which was kind of a setback considering we wanted “family time” and needed to decide who would have to sleep in the separate house. The guest house also had the room with the bunk beds, so if traveling with kids take into consideration that the bunk bed room isn’t in the main home. Other than that, the cleanliness the space and THAT VIEW! was great. I would def recommend, and def visit again just without counting on two rooms in a separate cabin.
