Nell's Getaway: 'Vacation in this Picturesque Cabin in the Woods!'

"Vacation in this picturesque cabin in the Woods!" Seldom will you find a perfect vacation cabin - Nell's Getaway rates a 10!! Just like brand new, this log cabin with a pine interior is immaculate. It offers lots of serenity as you relax on the spacious covered and uncovered decks. Don't be surprised if squirrels, deer, elk, and/or wild horses visit you! This lovely cabin is approximately 1200 sq. ft. and features central heat and air conditioning, wireless internet, and a new water softener installed in 2020, which softens the water and removes iron. There is an additional RO system for the drinking water. Reserve today and be prepared for an elite getaway. Nell's Getaway is located next door to Deer Meadows for larger group accommodations.

Ruidoso, Alto, and surrounding areas: Submerse yourself within the towering pines of Lincoln County and watch local wildlife such as elk, deer, wild horses, turkey, birds, and more in their natural habitats. Plan a day basking in the stillness of our national forest while hiking, biking, or fishing, golfing at one of our multiple golf courses or spend a fun night out on the town at one of the area's local attractions! Be sure to swim or fish at the beautiful Grindstone or Alto Lake, delight your senses at Winter Park with roller coaster and tubing, and explore the ski slopes and hiking trails throughout Ski Apache. Win big at one of our three local casinos and enjoy the excitement of live quarter horse racing at Ruidoso Downs Racetrack. Be happy you took a respite from the concrete jungle. Come relax and refresh with us!

The stay was great! Kitchen was packed with everything you might need. First time I've never needed my kitchen bag I take for traveling. We didnt see any wildlife. Wondering if it’s bc of all the dogs that are penned up. They didnt bark much though. We will diffidently be staying again.

Amazing Stay
We stayed for our Christmas vacation. The house was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed to be able to cook at home. It was very clean and cozy. We enjoyed feeding the deer off the back patio. It was a great location for everything we were planning to do while we were there, definitely recommend this place to friends and family

Beautiful view
If you are looking for a quiet property with beautiful views of the Ruidoso area, this is a great choice. Enjoy your morning coffee on a large deck as you feed the deer who stop by for a visit. (They love carrots!) The inside of the property is nicely decorated and may be the best stocked of any property we have ever rented. They literally had stocked everything you might need. Beds were very comfortable. If rain keeps you inside during your visit, be sure and try the scavenger hunts in the property notebook. The notebook also has helpful restaurant suggestions for the area, but be advised that staffing shortages mean many area restaurants are keeping irregular hours, so call ahead. Our one issue was with the water pressure, which ranged from low to zero-literally. We were told the local water supply is critically short and they are having to bring in water from other areas. One night the pressure dropped to zero in the middle of my shower! We only had two adults, so we managed to deal with it, but if it were rented to capacity (6 people), this could be a real issue. Otherwise, you will really enjoy this quiet retreat.

Beautiful property!
We had a great family getaway at Nell’s. The place was refreshing, cool, clean, and quiet. It was just what we needed to finish up our summer and get ready for the hustle and bustle of the school year to start. Nell’s Getaway exceeded our expectations in every way. We were so comfortable here and we enjoyed the back deck very much. Most of our time was spent out there watching the deer come up to the porch. We will definitely be back time and again!

Nell's Cabin was tge perfect cabin for us. It was clean and very cozy. Deer came by and we were able to feed them apples! The only thing I'd would say is, please change the shower heads in both bathrooms they are rusted and it doesn't let water flow through them. Other than this....the cabin is perfect! Enjoy 😉

We enjoyed spending quality at the cabin. We cooked breakfast and dinner ever day and enjoyed a warm fire. We read all the reviews on wild life and bought plenty of carrots and apples. We had deer come by every day to visit us. A big buck came on our last morning before check out was the icing in the cake.
