Jul 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The house is lovey and spacious. It was so nice to have king beds and a private bathroom in each bedroom. Kitchen had everything we needed. The porches were wonderful. We enjoyed watching the deer, elk, and wild horses. Very walkable location in midtown. ##### Diane T. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maykin H. Mar 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location! New and convenient to everything Ruidoso has to offer. Perfect for families. Just as described… new and stocked with the essentials! Beds were comfy! Had extra soft blankets all over the house for those crisp cool nights! Definitely a great location with easy access to everything! About the only thing we could say is if you are a bath person it’s a small tub… but still works for those needs! Swanky and beautiful cabin! Would definitely rent again! ##### Maykin H.
