Ruidoso Family Cabin, Short Walk to Downtown!

Great Cabin/ house to stay!! Easy fast access !!

The cabin was beautiful, very clean and had everything we could need.

Although in a convenient and safe location, the cabin itself does not appear to be well maintained, or rather minimally maintained. Thick spiderwebs were both inside and outside of the cabin. Cooking supplies were cracked or very worn and there was even a drawer that was stuck closed. A layer of grease could be felt over the countertops and stove. Other basic utilities were either worn or not included at all. For example, an old used sponge was left to use for washing dishes and there was no toaster. The entire refrigerator would shift completely when trying to open the freezer drawer. The entire cabin was stuffy in a way that it hadn't been used in quite a while and the only windows that had screens to help keep insects out were in the bathrooms and washroom. The photo of the cabin is misleading in that the lighting of the main living room was very dim. The tubs in the bathrooms were both worn and cracked. The bottles of toiletries that were left in the bathrooms were empty and old. The towels left for us to use needed to be washed prior to use because it seems generally that the cabin wasn't used for a while and were only checked to see if things were there prior to our visit.All in all, this cabin needs a bit more TLC and a couple of upgrades to keep it up to expectations when we are expected to pay close to 1,000 for a couple of nights stay. Pretty disappointed.

The location was the best part of this cabin. It was smaller than what it looks like in the pictures but it worked for our quick trip. The sofa beds in the living room were not very comfortable to sleep on. The pots and pans could be replaced with newer ones. Everything else was good and the cabin was clean.

Great place to sit outside and close to downtown.

First the place wreaked cigarettes, that’s a big negative, then the stove had a skillet full of old grease. Lots of loose tiles on the floor. The living room and dining furniture is not what is in the picture. We had 9 and some had to sleep on them and they were horrible. The room with bunks were not safe, we did not use top bunk for safety reasons. They should provide firewood, because you have to run the heater on 78-80 to keep living area somewhat warm and all other rooms you smoldered. Only 2 could take showers then you had to wait a while to get hot water. All in all we had a great time, location is perfect, but the house was not. I would not recommend this home, for this price. We did reach out to host for 2 things and we got a quick response.

The caving was clean and it was in a great area. My family and I had a great experience. The only thing was the couches were very uncomfortable! But other than that, it was awesome!

Beautiful place

I got this cabin for a week trying to escape the El Paso heat but this cabin was the worse i ever experienced it was super hot, i got it for a week and the worse week of my life!!! It was so hot we couldnt be inside the cabin, i messaged owner several times but never fixed the AC issue it was always set at 77 or 80 degrees inside after telling them to set to 70 but never did, it was just soooooo hot especially having a pregnant wife, especially upstairs, had a bad back cuz upstairs was so hot had to sleep in the uncomfortable couches.. will never rent here, if you love the A/C look elsewhere this cabin aint it, its waaaaaaay too hot!

It was a good location and we had a nice time.

The cabin was very functional for our group but would encourage looking into AC unit or at least provide additional fans for summer time visitors. The overall cleanliness of this cabin was good but the floors were somewhat sticky in the kitchen & living area. Mid-day traffic is a little heavy & a little loud as mentioned in other reviews BUT HEY we are JUST VISITING in an area where people DO Live & Work!! NONE of the afore mentioned prevented us from enjoying our stay by any means! The view from the front deck is AWESOME!!! 2 mornings out of our 4 day stay we got to see the Amazing elk herds come in along with the deer every morning and late afternoon!! If you are looking for total peace & quite then you need to look else where BUT if you are looking for something functional for a large family gathering, convenient to shopping and nature this is a PERFECT location!!!

The cabin was very nice and very clean. The kids really enjoyed seeing deer walk right by the cabin. The scenery was awesome from the patio and we really enjoyed ourselves. We definitely will look up this cabin when we go again. Thank you
