Ruidoso River Trail Cabin
Summary:
Ruidoso River Trail Cabin
The Space:
This is such a cool cabin! If you like clean, cool mountain air, fishing and playing at the river, taking walks along the river on a paved trail, then this cabin if perfect for you. Ruidoso River Trail Cabin is located right off of the main street of Sudderth, from the cabin you can walk to the Chamber of Commerce, there is also a kids playground and pony rides for the litttle tykes. You can also fish at the bridge about 100 feet away from the cabin! Please check fishing guidelines, a NM fishing license is required.
The cabin has gone through a remodel but kept its authenticity. It features a large covered deck with a comfortable futon sofa, over sized rocking chair, and a fooseball game table to enjoy. The covered deck is so cozy and comfortable you may not want to leave it!
The front master bedroom has a king size bed and en-suite, the back bedroom has a queen bed and its own covered porch. Be sure and take a photo with the fishing bear who lives around back.
The kitchen has a vintage vibe with a dining table that almost didn't stay after the remodel. The dining chairs are way too comfy though! We couldn't get rid of them! Enjoy dinner then games around the table. You'll see what we mean! This cabin is super comfortable!
This cabin is pet friendly. Small pets are welcome upon approval. There is a $25.00 pet fee per pet,
per night that will be added to your reservation. Don't forget to ask for your doggie swag bag at check in.

The cabin was clean, comfortable and climate appropriate. It had everything we needed. Its location is great, close to many activities. The host maintained good contact with us and made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely rent this cabin again.

This was our very first family vacation. Traveled with my partner, our 10 month old baby girl and I’m currently expecting another girl. We truly had a wonderful time. The cabin itself was adorable, spacious, clean, had all the basics that made our trip carefree. We saw wildlife EVERY DAY, lots of deer all around our cabin and even wild horses! It’s located very close to town which was helpful when we needed to take baby back to cabin quickly for nap time or run to town for a quick bite or shopping. The team was very responsive from booking, check in, and check out. Unfortunately we went during a time when the creek was mostly dried out and the walking trail was closed. The cabin road was a little rundown, you could tell there may have been some construction or previous flood damage. But there’s so many places near by to take the stroller to for a pleasant lengthy walk. Overall, this trip and cabin were exactly what we were looking for and we were incredibly pleased with our time there. Thank you to the hosts for being so accommodating.
