Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Living Room: Couch (not a pullout)

Drive through downtown Ruidoso and the quiet community of Canyon Creek Lodge to approach your new home-away-from-home with central A/C & heating.

You're sure to spend quality time on the front porch, where you'll enjoy views of the sylvan setting and hiking trails which surround the home. This is the perfect spot for a morning cup of coffee or one last night cap before bed.

Inside, the simple charm of this homey bungalow is sure to impress. The stylish wooden interior is complete with free WiFi, comfortable furnishings, hardwood flooring, and cabin decor.

Settle down in the spacious living area, perfect for family or group gatherings. For optimum relaxation, turn on the mounted flat-screen cable TV near the decorative fireplace.

When everyone has worked up an appetite, prepare some snacks or heat up some leftovers with help from the well-equipped kitchenette, featuring a mini-fridge, microwave, hot plate, coffee maker and plenty of utensils. For a more advanced at-home dinner, the gas grill and outdoor dining area can assist.

As bedtime approaches, retreat to your master bedroom complete with a king-sized bed and beautiful decor throughout. When the others are ready to turn in, they can enjoy nights of peaceful sleep in the additional queen bedroom and couch in the living area.

-- THE LOCATION --

Secluded amongst trees, streams, and wildlife in a quiet community, you'll find it hard to leave the tranquility of this cozy cabin. That said, Ruidoso is brimming with outdoor adventure for those wishing to explore!

For a laid-back day full of shopping and dining out, head into downtown Ruidoso, just 5 miles from the cabin. The local eateries, such as Cornerstone Bakery & Cafe Co, Hall of Flame Burgers and Sacred Grounds Coffee & Tea House are sure to impress.

Spend the morning exploring the nearby Grindstone Lake. Then, test your luck in the afternoon at the Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort & Casino and the Ruidoso Downs Race Track.

Bungalow getaway!
My friends and I stayed at this property for a weekend. Overall, we had a good time. The bungalow is small, but with just 3 of us it wasn’t too cramped. The only thing we were not prepared for this how cold it was. It has listed on the amenities that they have heat and AC, but that is a little misleading because they have one wall unit in the main area and it’s not very efficient, and they have a small heater in the bathroom. The bathroom was warm and toasty, but the living room and kitchen area was cold and the bedrooms were freezing. When we woke up, it was 19 degrees in the bedroom. The property manager texted us the day before and told us to bring blankets and bundle up, but if we had known this place didn’t have heat then we would have planned differently. Overall, it was a good stay and the property was clean and safe and the property managers were very nice!

Amazing little cabin
This place was amazing and will definitely go back. There is a creek just out front that attracts a variety of wildlife, from deer, ducks, and horses. The rooms are spacious and cozy. Unfortunately wifi did not work but the cabin amenities, games and dvds make up for entertainment. Great little place!!

We enjoyed our stay. Everything was just as listed and went well. It was pretty much in the middle between town and the casino so it was really convenient. Will book again.

Nice little place with false advertising.
The place is excellent, and the stream that passes in front makes it a great place to see outdoors. However, the advertisement for this place is a lie. I have a 3-year old, so we were looking for wifi (stated as in the ad) not available. The place says it can sleep 5 (if the last one sleeps on the floor) since the couch in the living room is a love seat, not the sofa in the pictures. Also, the information states that the cabin has a king bed in the bedroom1 and queen in bedroom2; in reality, the cabin has 2 queen beds—one for each bedroom. The cabin has no heating; it has 4 space heaters, but 2 do not work. The space heater for the living room cannot be used in high (which for the temperature in Ruidoso, which was around 20 degrees according to my pro trek watch, does not cut it). The space heater for the bedroom closest to the door does not work at all. The information for the cabin states that you are going to be charged $53 for cleaning. The cleaning lady called me (yelling and insulting) that we were pigs because we did not take out the trash and that we had “trashed the bedrooms.” According to this lady, we had trashed the bedrooms because we had used her clean sheets and left them on the floor by the beds. Something we did because we found a note on the center table of the living room stating, “Please leave all used sheets and pillowcases that were used in the floor by the beds.” And yes, we did use her clean sheets because the cabin was freezing and did not want my 3-year old to get sick. Finally, regarding the trash we left behind, we left such garbage in trash bags in the “kitchen area” because we could not find dumpsters in the cabin to throw them in. Lady, we do not live or work in that place; therefore, we do not know where you have dumpsters in that complex. According to this lady, we had to follow the notes she left behind, something we did with the bedsheets. But, according to her, there were approximately 6 notes we had to read. I did not know we had a treasure hunt to stay in that place. According to this lady, we are pigs and have to pay 75 to 100 more dollars because she had to take out the trash bags and wash bed sheet. In short: * no heating * Karen like cleaning lady * no internet * misleading ads * treasure hunt to find the ladies notes * no king bed. I am never coming back to this place. This goes to the cleaning lady, where I come from; we also take out our garbage leave the dumpsters where you can find them.
