Relaxing and Quiet
If you’re looking for a relaxing place to stay with a quiet atmosphere and no traffic this is it. We took a group here to experience the winter in the mountains of Ruidoso and didn’t have to worry about a thing once we arrived. The drive to the property is short from downtown, the commute to the ski mountain is short as well. The host was fantastic and answered any questions we had. And the plus was the wild horses who came to visit us at the property, the kids (little and big) absolutely loved it! We will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Best house we have ever rented
My husband and I with an additional 4 adults, and 5 kids 7-16 stayed on this property for a few days during the Christmas Break. The kitchen was very clean and stocked with everything we could have possibly needed to use. Bathrooms had plenty of towels and toilet paper. My favorite was that this home didn’t have any stairs which kept us all together. We played pool and enjoyed the hot tub when the weather got very gusty and we couldn’t walk down to the river. We have already looked into rebooking this property.

Great Place To Stay With Friends
We were in town for a wedding, had 4 couples (one with a 1 year old) staying in the house and it was roomy enough for us all to be very comfortable. The property is beautiful and the hot tub in the atrium was perfect to unwind in after our 8 hour drive in. Owners/management were super communicative and helpful.

Thanksgiving Family Gathering
Hello, we have rented cabins in the Ruidoso and Alto area for the last 20 years, always trying new places. This is by far the best place we’ve stayed at. Quiet, peaceful and clean. The home owners have everything you can possibly need. Jane was so helpful, courteous and would answer right away when we had a question. We cannot wait to stay here again. We had family travel from Los Angeles, Phoenix, Amarillo and El Paso. Everyone enjoyed our Thanksgiving Gathering!! Thank you!!!!

Beautiful home, everything we needed, and wildlife everywhere!
What an amazing house! I would give it a 10-star review if I could. The house had everything you could possibly need. We would cook every day, and it had every appliance, utensil, and even spices to use. We had a total of 12 guests with plenty of space for everyone to move around, and plenty of beds to sleep in. The pool table and foosball table were a big hit. There is a very large, big screen TV in the living room with plenty of seating for everyone to gather around and watch a movie. The laundry room has two sets of washing machines and dryers which was very convenient for a large group. The hot tub was a great place to unwind in the evenings. There were even some toys for toddlers up in the loft area. The best part of our stay was the continuous wildlife experiences. We had elk in the yard every day sometimes in the mornings AND in the evenings. We also had deer in the yard almost every day. About a mile from the property, we seen wild horses running. The property is secluded enough to be peaceful, quiet, and sit outside on the patio at night to view the amazing amount of stars. The location was very easy to get to Ruidoso for shopping and restaurants. The homeowner is very responsive and the check in process was very easy. Everything in the house is labeled and easy to find instructions. I would highly recommend staying here it was a wonderful experience.

Magic piece of heaven !
Pictures do not reflect how big this house is, in part for the interesting temperature preservation design that covers most of the house by the hill. Skylights everywhere in the house to bring natural light (clever!). Massive skylight in jacuzzi room with supper high ceiling and open space that connects all bedrooms. The distribution of the inside of the house is great, it felt like staying in a movie mansion. Again, pictures do not resemble how big and comfortable the house really is in the inside, it can easily accommodate 3-4 small families. On top of that the house is super well equipped and you can feel the effort the owners make to ensure you vacation is a memorable one. The reason I stay in owned properties like this one is because I like to feel like I am at home. I see more and more owners renting their vacation properties to account for the mortgage expenses. Some owners don’t like sharing their houses, and some find joy in sharing their houses by making others happy, that is the case here. Thanks Jane again for sharing your house with us and for your kind hospitality, Alejandro.

Wonderful; Just as desired
The house was wonderful, fully stocked, and comfortable. The kids loved exploring the land and creek. The layout of the rooms worked well. We would consider staying here again. Only issue we had was attempting to drop trash off on our last day. All the sites were locked and the cleaning lady got sassy with us after we explained what happened.

Great house. Would definitely stay again and again!
Our family loved the room in this house. Beds were so comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. We cooked many meals for 10 people and always had every thing we needed. Enjoyed the outdoors. Several deer came by. The hummingbirds were around all the time. We had a great time.
