Luxury Cabin! Upper Canyon Lookout -Sierra Blanca view close to town

Upper Canyon Lookout’s views of the Lincoln National Forest and Sierra Blanca Mountain are spectacular from inside as well as from the huge 455 sq. ft. deck. The mountain views and quiet surroundings provide a feeling of seclusion, but the Ruidoso shopping district and restaurants are just 2 miles down the mountain. In addition to the views, the deck is a favorite area for relaxing in the cool mountain breeze while watching the wildlife. deer, hummingbirds, and turkeys are frequent visitors with an occasional sighting of fox, elk, and bear. In the summer, our family loves to cook on the deck’s gas grill and enjoy all our meals outside on the deck’s dining and picnic tables.
During winter weather, your family and friends can enjoy the same mountain views from our large open living room, kitchen and dining area with vaulted wood ceiling and beautiful stone gas-log fireplace (instant on/off for your convenience and pleasure). Stay entertained playing board games, cards, dominos, WII, catching up on old times, or watching the 55” Smart LED HDTV . DVD player is provided and surround sound is available for TV, DVD and radio. The Smart LED HDTV in living area & in all 4 bedrooms connect to our internet. Living room & Master bedroom have HULU live TV. Use your personal account to watch Netflix, Prime, HULU etc. on all TVs.
Our single-level cabin has a 2-car carport, WIFI, central heat, air conditioning, richly grained cabinetry, granite counter tops, unique tiling, and wood tone flooring throughout. Each of the 4 bedrooms has its own bathroom, ceiling fan, and an HDTV smart TV. 3 bedrooms have king-size beds and 1 bedroom has a queen-size bed. The fully- equipped kitchen has a large bar, dishwasher, and room for multiple cooks. The laundry room provides a washer, dryer; sink, iron & ironing board, and room to store your golf clubs or ski boots.
While Upper Canyon Lookout provides many ways to make new memories, there are many things to see and enjoy in the area. See the map section for our cabin's proximity to some favorite activities.

Don’t miss out! Bring your family to enjoy our beautiful cabin and prepare for what might be your best mountain vacation.

The Most Beautiful House We Have Stayed At
This has been the best house we have ever booked on VRBO. It has perfect views and is great for couples, families, and multiple families. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to others! The owners were so responsive and thoughtful checking in on us during the stay and as we traveled. Thank you for sharing your home with our family!

Beautiful Mountain Getaway
The home is inviting and comfortable with the best equipped kitchen ever! Loved the deck - it is large and has a lovely view of the mountains. Wild life visits the area off the deck. We saw turkeys and deer. The hosts are quick to respond and so very kind!

Beautiful mountaintop retreat
This is the second year we've stayed here, and our new favorite! So comfortable, with four nice bedrooms, each with it's own bathroom, beautiful and comfortable common areas and super well-stocked kitchen, and deck with plenty of seating and amazing view (though, with visible evidence of the recent fires). Owners warned us of the possibility of an occasional temporary water or power outage, since Ruidoso is still in recovery mode. This did happen, but Terry was super-responsive and kept in close contact until the problems were solved. We were able to manage just fine and had a wonderful time hanging out, visiting with local family and going on outings. They have jugs of water for flushing during outages and we brought a five gallon water container with a pump that we put by the laundry room sink which was great for brushing teeth, washing faces, etc. This house is just minutes from downtown shopping and restaurants, yet you feel like you're in the wilderness! The wild horses came to our cabin, along with deer and wild turkey and we saw a lot of elk around town. We were so thankful we had this beautiful place to stay wedding visiting and that we could support Ruidoso family and businesses. Will definitely come back!

Great house with Awesome hosts
We have been staying here since 2020 and this house is perfect. Great location 5 minutes from downtown but perfectly quiet setting with great views. Terry and Carlene are awesome hosts that do everything in their power to make everything feel like home. Even through the fires and floods that Ruidoso experienced this year they were on top of everything. The even notified us of a water outage that the city had before we noticed it. You will never have a regret if you tent this house!!

Beautiful Home
This cabin was perfect for our family to enjoy our much needed time together. Mornings out on the huge covered porch with an amazing view of the mountain. Deer greeting us each morning. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook breakfast. Living Area was also very cozy for all to gather and reminisce. Would highly recommend to stay here. I look forward to our next stay at this beautiful home.

2023 Christmas Vacation
The house had a great layout for all to enjoy. 4 good size rooms, each having a bathroom. Large kitchen, Living Area, and Dining Room. View from the deck was by far the best view of the Mountain. We enjoyed spending Christmas in this home and would definitely book this house again in the future. Thanks The Castro's

How to expand on a previous review. Terry and Carlene are the ultimate property owners. They cancelled their own plans for the property and opened it back up for rent on Vrbo to accommodate our group for a golf tournament. They are quick to respond to any question or need you have. And, I assure anyone who rents the property will have few questions or needs. It is clean, well maintained, comfortable, open concept and the view is breathtaking. We have seen turkey, deer, wild horses and a young mountain lion enjoying the sun on a crisp morning. Consensus of my group is this is the best place we have stayed and we have been in multiple properties over a 13 year timeframe.
