We had a great time; the home was so cute and cozy, and I didn't want to leave lol. There was only one down fall and that was the driveway, it is very steep, and my car wouldn't go up the driveway and the gravel was so loose that even walking up the driveway was a workout (that we probably needed anyway, lol). But everything was great and enjoyable can't wait to go again. ##### Dolores ### 8/10 Good #### Chase H. 2 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean a new quiet Property is very nice and clean thank you, but the mattresses and pillows were less than desirable ##### Chase H. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Sylvia H. 4 Sept 2022 Disliked: Location #### Ruidoso We would not stay here again. There were too many maintenance and convenience issues for us. For example, the dishes and cups in the cabinets were dirty. The house had a musty smell. The driveway was steep and rutted. A light bulb was missing in the light fixture in one of the bathrooms. The toilet in one of the bathrooms wobbled. Coffee was not provided. The pictures give the impression that the cabin is somewhat secluded. It's not. It's in a neighborhood with houses and mobile homes all around it. ##### Sylvia H.

Perfect place for my family of 4\. We felt home away from home. The only dislike is the driveway which is uphill, but understandably there’s not much you can do to fix that. Just be careful driving up the hill when ice or snow present. But, I will definitely recommend this place! ##### Hope Gomez ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gaylen S. 14 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### I had to use 4 wheel drive to get up the driveway.
