BLACK BEAR (No.13) 3 Bedroom/ 2 Bath, AC Window Unit, Split Level with Staircase | Living area

"the cabin is set back from the main street and the other cabins so it is more private which i liked. the cielings are low for a tall person and the spaces are tight, especiallythe hallway, it's a little more "rustic" for me personally and there isn't any outdoor space to eat and just hang out. the location though and the hosts made it easy to overlook the flaws. The hosts were great and very responsive. i would rent again!"

"It’s a beautiful property with plenty of space for larger groups. The multiple porches and outdoor spaces are perfect for hanging out with family or spending time alone. "

"More than we expected, beautiful house with anything you need in and wonderful view. "

High Sierra Condominium

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely beautiful location! Breathtaking views, away from town, secluded drive up the mountain. Very clean and easy to navigate through check in through check out. Partially furnished with kitchen/cooking supplies (pots and pans) but if planning to do a lot of it, I'd take your own supplies. Wonderful place for a weekend getaway and our favorite in Ruidoso! We will be booking there for our yearly trip."
