    Staying at the lazy moose Lodge was an excellent experience, we stayed in the house for a full week for a hunting trip in Ruidoso and it amplified our entire experience. The home was clean upon our arrival and everything was in place in an order, the kitchen was fully stocked with all necessary cooking items. The beds were a little firm but comfortable and the air conditioning worked well. The checkout process was simple and minimal tasks were needed before departure which was a huge plus, being able to see elk and deer outside our door along with a wild horse was just the icing on the cake, we will definitely be staying here again.

    A nice cabin in the area, we enjoyed our holiday and snow in April was a plus! Place was clean and stocked, easy to get to and close to town with a short drive. Pet friendly was a plus, didn’t realize the fenced area for dogs is not accessible from the house you have to go out the door and to the side to let your dogs potty. Overall a good place to rent for a weekend. Thanks!

    This property is exactly as described. It was a very comfortable stay for all of us - we particularly appreciate the two bedrooms with king sized beds and a downstairs space with two additional beds. And a bathroom for every bedroom is so convenient.The kitchen has a large variety of cookware and appliances that made meals a breeze, and we were left a lovely welcome gift that included a little something for everyone. We grilled on the deck, and we were treated to some deer wandering across the property one morning. All in all, this weekend was a success, and we look forward to returning.

    This house is located just outside midtown. It’s located in a nice mountain, not too high up. Just right. The neighborhood is nice and safe. The fireplace was great and the house is very spacious.

    It was fairly easy to get to. We had never stayed in that area before. Pictures didn’t tell the complete story. We wanted a 3 bedroom 3 bath house, but the downstairs bedroom and bathroom were not as nice as the ones upstairs. In the pictures the deck looked a lot bigger than it was. The refrigerator hadn’t even been cleaned on the inside. We were expected to use just 2 trash bags in the kitchen. It was a good thing we brought extra. We had to be out by 10, which we all thought was a little ridiculous, and then VRBO thought we should leave a tip for the cleaning people. I won’t rent this property again because it really wasn’t what we were expecting. Basically, we were all a little disappointed in the property, plus, it was a lot more than we usually spend as a group. One last thing, you told us not to start out with the air conditioner below 70, and we didn’t. It was a warm weekend, and it never really cooled off.

    This rental was very clean and welcoming. We had a little bit of trouble with the AC. Luckily the fans and cool air helped. The contact was helpful and quick to answer questions. We really enjoyed our stay and I would recommend this property to others.
