River Ridge Retreat Pet Friendly | Secluded Ridge-Top Escape w/ Sunroom & Starry Hot Tub Nights

Finally able to check out Ruidoso, NM. Heard so much about this area. Living in Texas, but from Wisconsin missed the forest atmosphere. Downtown felt like being in the Wisconsin Dells. A great taste of home. Shopkeepers so friendly and was very happy to be able to bring our dog along. The cabin was perfect for our escape from the city. Loved the hot tub and afternoon reading on the deck outside.Supper was steak,shrimp and baked potato on the grill...perfect! Thank you for a great getaway.

Property was as described. Cozy, quiet neighborhood and had everything we needed.

Amazing stay. Close to everything and very clean!

This is a great small cabin on a hillside with a very large fenced in yard for the dogs to enjoy. The cabin was decorated in a super cute manner and the beds were comfortable. We had fun going to Cloud Croft and visiting the locals lakes. We had an elk hop the backyard fence and nibbled while we took pics. We saw wild horses in town enjoyed the perfect weather!

Beautiful cabin, perfect for me and my husband!

Beautiful home sitting in a hilltop. Beautiful views! Home was decorated just like Ruidoso feels when we are there! Loved staying here for the week!

Hot tub was great, cabin easily accessible

Truly grateful for how easy the process was to get this place. It was exactly what me and my dogs needed. Perfect location everything was perfect.

We really enjoyed this cabin. The directions were helpful as google maps did not send us to the right place. The cabin had everything that was needed. We enjoyed the hot tub and the deck, and most importantly, the view!

Very comfortable and quite stay , needed the rest

The house is very comfortable and in a beautiful location. Our only problem was following GOOGLE directions. We ended up down in the middle of the flood damage! Everyone should use the directions supplied by Hummingbird to get there safely! It was a great trip. We will be back.

Great

Loved the location, amenities, and amazing view from the back porch while we relaxed in the hot tub.

Beautiful views and cozy home!! Great location!! We will definitely be back!

When we first arrived, I was disappointed by how dusty many surfaces and parts of the floor seemed. The keurig and coffee maker looked like they also needed a good cleaning and the floor of the shower had dark streaks. I later discovered the toilet was not thoroughly cleaned when looking at it from the side while the lid is up. Lastly, me and my husband wished there had been curtains or blinds for the front door and kitchen window. It felt creepy at night knowing someone could easily be looking in. I appreciated most of the back windows having shades, though.While these issues need to be dealt with on the behalf of future users, the house ended up being quite a treat. It felt more private, just as was promised, even though it was in a neighborhood. It was mostly quiet (aside from construction), and was just what we needed. The hot tub was awesome, once we kind of figured it out. The bed was comfortable! We could not figure out the fireplace, though it was not pressing since it was the summer. We called in about it our first night and the lady who answered said she would write it down. I cannot remember if she said to call back in the morning, but I thought she said we would be contacted that next day. I never heard anything back from them during our stay. But it seemed a minor problem.

We did not get to come due to a family emergency and no one cared about even trying to help with a refund when we really needed the money back. So we pretty much just paid for nothing.

On the plus side: The cabin itself was as advertised. Clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the cowboy theme. Our dog was well-confined and enjoyed the fenced back yard.On the down side: Access to the cabin was complicated by the neighborhood and it's location. Much of the surrounding property was rundown or overgrown.Being older adults we found the uneven flagstone walks posed a fall-hazard. The lot next door was littered with trash The hot tub area was uninviting to say the least. There were many electronic devices throughout the cabin but almost no access to actual TV programs etc. If you can't do stairs well you are confined to the interior and the front walkway.This is a nice cabin in a poor location with come up-grades needed.

This was our second time staying in this house. It's a lovely house and great that it's dog friendly with a fenced yard. My only complaint would be with the shower. It's all or nothing, you have to have ot turned on all the way or you have no water pressure.

Great stay... clean place.

Pretty good for dogs

It was a wonderful and relacing stay. The cabin was comfortable and warm. Will definitely try to ise the same place when we visit again

We absolutely loved the River Ridge Retreat. The cabin was perfect for our little family stay. The fireplace was great. We enjoyed having a hot tub and the location felt secluded and private in the woods but still convenient and close to town. Beautiful views every morning and we got to enjoy the snow in the mountains! The hill getting to the cabin is really steep on one side but the other side of the street was easier to navigate in the snow and ice. Just know there are two ways up and down and believe the listing when they tell you to use chains and/or 4wd. We have a 1 ton diesel truck with 4wd so we did not have any issues. My husband and kiddo really enjoyed the area and especially the Winter Park with snow tubing so we hope to be back soon and would stay at this cabin again if available.

House is very nice. The code was never sent to me so I had to text the host for it. Then they texted the incorrect code. So we had to call and they gave the correct code. Once we got into the house it was lovely.

We will definitely be back! Great cabin for our weekend getaway. View from the hot tub was perfect.

Lovely place to meet for Thanksgiving. Enjoyed the hot tub and fireplace and enough kitchen to make a small Thanksgiving feast.

We LOVED our stay and will definitely be back ❤️

The property was very clean and pretty, we absolutely loved it

We had a good anniversary trip. Loved the place! The fenced yard was great for our dogs.

Dogs loved the yard; they said best vacation ever! We all loved the elk, mule dear, and wild horses! The little Western lamp and kid boots were special. We have my husband’s pair. My husband said the road noise was annoying.

Needed a weekend getaway to clear my mind and recharge in the trees. This cozy little cabin provided all that and more, can't wait to visit again.

House was just right, beautiful views. Then the wildfires came through and we had to leave town. Hope to be back soon!
