Excellent cabin in the mountains
We loved staying here. The river in the backyard is great and serene. The cabin is cozy and spacious. It was well equipped and it even had a wood burning fireplace. The location is also close to everything, but just away to not feel in the middle of all the action.

Recommend this beautiful cabin!!
Awesome place to spend vacation time with your family. Great river view and perfect location on Ruidoso NM. This is the second time we go, the first time was on Christmas week where the place is beautiful as the Main Street is full with Christmas spirit, you're able to see Clydesdale horses rides as well. Recommend this beautiful cabin!!

Cute cabin, amazing location!
Our little family loved this cute cabin! It has been renovated since the pictures listed so that was a nice treat. We loved seeing all of the wildlife (deer, turkeys, and horses!). The river view was just gorgeous! We had a user error with the shower but the owner was QUICK to respond. We will be back! This is such a gem!

Cozy home on the River!
My family of 6 enjoyed our stay! The property is located on the river and is so peaceful. We loved spending time out on the back deck listening to the water and seeing the deer. The home is well stocked with anything needed and provided a nice place to come back and rest after our adventures! Thanks for having us.

Returning Guest
Our 2nd stay at this cabin was just as wonderful as the first! The addition of the patio swing was a plus as we spent several hours on the deck just watching the wildlife (many deer) and the river. The owner is very friendly and will go out of her way to accommodate your needs. We will be looking forward to our next visit!
