Ruidoso, Alto, and surrounding areas: Submerse yourself within the towering pines of Lincoln County and watch local wildlife such as elk, deer, wild horses, turkey, birds, and more in their natural habitats.

Mountain getaway
We enjoyed this home. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and dining. Great laundry room. The only issue had was pet stains in all 3 bedrooms. However I did document with the management company and they had carpet cleaning scheduled in the near future.

TLC needed
The house is cute and has great patios. The amenities in the Kitchen are awesome. The neighborhood is great for taking walks and the neighbors are very nice. The beds are average for comfort. The noise from the busy road, just a few feet from the bedroom window, made it hard to sleep. The carpet should be replaced, there is mold in the guest toilet, the garage door was damage so we parked in the driveway. The lights for the driveway worked intermittently and its several feet away from the entrance, we had to use flash lights to see, it was very inconvenient to carry our belongings in.With a little TLC this would be agreat place.

Vacation in July
The weather was great. It was nice to be able to sit on the covered porch while it rained. The cabin is on a semi busy road so you had road noise while sitting outside but wasn't bad on the inside. Overall it was a nice place to stay.

Overall pretty nice but a few downfalls.
This home was very spacious, and was a quiet location, but had a few down falls, there wasn’t any hand soap in the bathrooms, and the hot tub was dirty, and smelt very bad, also for there being a nation wide pandemic with such a deadly virus, nothing seemed to be disinfected or sanitized. Also found ants in the master! Also received some bug bites, not sure if they were bed bugs or what but very uncomfortable!

Great experience and lovely home
This was our first time renting and staying at the property. Home was beautiful and location was perfect to the town. I love the ambience and the feeling of being home even though it wasn’t ours! There were a few dust bunnies under beds that we cleaned but other than that it was great and we’ll be returning!

Cleanliness lacking!!
Overall I would say the property was nice for us, however, cleanliness was lacking!! We found some really long dark hair in the master shower, some mold in the master shower, musty smell when we first entered the house, the couches had popcorn in between the seats, there was very few trash cans, etc

Busy traffic noise
1. Numbered locking mechanism didn't work unless you lifted up the door. 2. Nice deck around the house, but not cleaned, including the chairs and tables. 3. Dishwasher had instructions to use a special cleaner. There was none. 4. Cooktop said to use ceramic cleaner, none was found. 5. Dirty silverware found in drawer. 6. Be careful when renting. The house has a nice layout but the only covered deck is in the front where the traffic never stops and is quite noisy.

Very nice home
Enjoyed our stay in this really nice home. It was comfortable for 3 couples. Hot tub was great after skiing. Kitchen was fully equipped for our breakfast cooking and a couple of dinners. Close to the ski resort; 30 minute drive. There is only seating for 5 in the living room, but we brought a comfy chair from one of the bedrooms so it worked out. Great location for restaurants and shopping.
