We loved how classic it was with the wooden cabin feel. The neighbors dog was a little loud with the barking, and we had a cat come and beg for a couple of nights. He eventually wandered off by the last day. Other than that, very clean and comfortable. There aren't full doors on the bedrooms (more saloon-style) which wasn't a problem for us because we were alone. But FYI for those coming with other people. Very easy check-in and out! It was a wonderful getaway! ##### Reanna M. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tammy V. 1 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Quiet. Restful. Beautiful Scenery. Cabin was smaller than portrayed in pictures but accurate. Cabin was super clean, well stocked, comfortable! We ended up staying in mainly because it was so cozy and The wind decided to blow 27 mph on Tues and Wed😂. The deck on the back offered scenic views of the mountains trees and and wild life was abundant! Deer, bullmoose ( think that’s what they were) were fun to watch passing through! We were a little disappointed about TV not working in bedroom-we called but no one returned our call:(. Not a deal breaker though- It would look nicer at first glance if the yard we picked of of old debris, around the yard and under decking where back fence is at-it wasn’t so bad though that I didn’t feel safe about my puppy being in there-fenced yard was a plus!! We will book again! Wanted to sign guest book but didn’t have an own! Tammy and Ty. Thank you! ! ##### Tammy V.

Very clean and great location love that it was dog friendly. Seeing wild life was a plus. I will say there is some room for improvement. The front door the screen door slams very hard and loudly (shock is worn out) the front door itself doesnt close all the way there is a gap for the cold draft. Front door didnt make for a safe feeling while staying here. Another unsafe feeling was the fact you could see right through the doors in the kitchen and one of the blinds in the living room closest to the TV didn't close. When staying out of town state or in general feeling safe is my family and I biggest need and this wasnt that. But over all the cabin was what we were looking for. ##### Cassie B.

Nestled amidst the serene beauty of the Ruidoso Mountains, this charming cabin offered a tranquil retreat that was both rustic and inviting. The cabin's location was ideal, just a short drive from the bustling town center yet secluded enough to provide a sense of peace and privacy. Surrounded by towering pines and the calming sounds of nature, we felt instantly at ease, leaving behind the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Inside, the cabin was impeccably clean and well-maintained, with a cozy ambiance that exuded warmth and comfort. The décor was tasteful and rustic, perfectly complementing the cabin's natural surroundings. We particularly loved the large windows that allowed us to soak in the stunning mountain views while enjoying the warmth of the fireplace. Our stay at Ruidoso Cabin was nothing short of exceptional. The cabin's tranquil setting, its immaculate condition, and its charming atmosphere provided the perfect backdrop for our much-needed escape. We highly recommend this cabin to anyone seeking a peaceful and rejuvenating retreat in the heart of Ruidoso. ##### Chris B. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicole P., Texas 21 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Cabin and Great Location but for 2 Things Great cabin and great location. Bedrooms were a good size, and sheets were soft. Heater was great, hot water was good, and we loved the real fireplace. We found a big trash can of wood for $35 in town. Don't go to local hardware for it. We couldn't find the W/D because it was in a room marked "private" and we didn't go in only to find out we had to go in to find the trap door to the W/D. I have 2 small complaints. The 2-seater sofa was very uncomfortable. It would be great if they got rid of the extra chairs and put in an L shaped couch. That way you could flop out after a day of hiking. The other complaint is that the brown lab next door barked incessantly. That kind of ruined the peacefulness of sitting outside with our coffee although we could also hear him barking non-stop inside the house. It for that reason only that we won't rent here again. A Keurig coffee maker would have been nice and saran wrap/foil/zip locks would have been nice as well. Other than the couch and the barking dog, it was a great place! ##### Nicole P. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Bethany F. 22 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Cabin was very clean and decor was great. There were several neighboring houses that had barking dogs that were distracting and the yard was not well maintained. Inside the cabin was very comfortable and maintained. ##### Bethany F.

The interior of the cabin is just what you would ask for in a small cabin. The location is great, in the tree line and a very short distance restaurants and stores. I would recommend this cabin to anyone and plan on staying again. ##### Daryn M.
