Overall an excellent experience. Beds were comfortable, upstairs was great for everyone gathering. The hot tub was just what we needed after a day of exploring town.
Eduardo was very confrontational when he was called regarding WiFi access/password. He sounded extremely annoyed that my devices did not automatically log in! He later called me back and gave me the password to get WiFi access but was very dismissive when I was trying to ask him other questions that I just hung up on him!
Great place to stay, close to town and restaurants. The place was very clean when we got there. Enjoyed all the deer we got to see up close. The owner was very helpful with any questions we had. Would recommend this property to all my friends and relatives.
The property was spacious and comfortable with all amenities (except tissues if the mountain air gets to you!). It's in a quiet, wooded neighborhood and close to town. We had a great experience here.
House was nice and cozy, and kid friendly. Very spacious for family of 9. Plenty of amenities during mealtime. Secluded, yet close enough to town. Reliable owners and accommodating!
Thank you for sharing your home with us. We enjoyed it and was very comfortable. Also appreciated the fact that we were able to enjoy one of our favorite pass times watching boxing.
Great place for a group get together. We had 8 guys and fit comfortably. It had everything we needed and was close to everywhere we wanted to go. The owners were very helpful and the place was extremely clean and well taken care of. We got a lot of use out of the fire place and there was plenty of wood to burn. The hot tub was also a nice addition.
The house was just as it was presented online and a perfect set-up for multiple families. We had 12 people and everyone was very comfortable. Great location close to town, lot's of deer...good set-up for kids and adults. The owner was also very responsive to all requests and emails. I'd definitely go back.
The property was as advised. Convenient to town and a nice place to stay after skiing all day. The hot tub was a bonus to help relax in the evenings. Plenty of room for everyone in our group. The stove not working fully was the only drawback as we cooked at least two meals a day. Overall, a good place to stay and wouldnât hesitate to book again.
The house was perfect for our group! We had 4 adults, 2 young men 19 & 20, teenager 16, and a 4 & 5 year old. It was very clean, and offered everything we needed. The extras were great hot tub, fireplace, wireless internet, washer/dryer, 10 point buck walking by the hot tub, being close to down town. Can't wait to go back!
Overall nice place, was clean and comfortable. Plenty of room for bug groups. Reason im leaving 2 star review is stove and oven doesnt really work took 3 hrs to make a basic breakfast. Other issue is the deck and railing is roted, not very safe.
Property needs quite a bit of repair - e.g. patio doors do not work well Exterior and driveway to front needs some grading. Sleeping space is more like 10 than 12. Of no consequence since we were only 7. Inside of house was ok. All in all the price was fair.
We meet up with friends from high school (20 plus years ago!!) every so often. Between us we have four kids (three boys and a girl, teens and pre-teens). This house was perfect for us. It was clean and laid out very well for our needs. We put the kids downstairs where they had plenty of room to play Nerf wars and listen to their music. We had a portable DVD player that we connected to the TV so they could watch their own movies. Meanwhile, the adults hung out in comfort upstairs near the fire.
The location of the home was a good distance to everything. But the neighborhood is very rundown. The home was very outdated. The deck needs serious replacement, there were parts in the railing where you can hurt yourself, the paint is coming off. The driveway needs to be fixed because it was hard to back out off. The fridge would not work properly. Very cold room downstairs that would not get any heat, vent was open and still no heat. Plumping needs Tobe updated. Downstairs bath was disgustingly clogged. Toilet downstairs made a weird nose when flushed. Blinds were so gross and old. The doors were gross and dirty. The window screen by hot tub was broken. Mattresses were so firm, I am pregnant and my back is in so much pain. Some sheets were dirty upon arrival. Washer and dryer were two different brands. The dryer is up high can't reach it and I'm 5â2. House has a weird smell. Wifi does not work. Very very old TVs.
Affordable Is The Only Good Thing About This Property
After reading the reviews and needing a last minute rental, I thought I found an adequate place for my weekend trip to Ruidoso. While everything seemed fine upon check-in, we noticed quite a few issues with the property.
The driveways need material added to them, otherwise your vehicle are liable to get stuck on the storm drain pipes running underneath both entrances.
The internet connection is almost non-existant, not helped by the fact there is a 10 year old wifi router being used.
There is no safe way to go from the top floor to the bottom floor around the outside of the house.
There are metal stakes protruding from the ground where wood ties used to be. This can make it dangerous to try to get to the hot tub from the top floor without having to go through someones bedroom.
Make sure you document the condition with pictures both before and after you use the hot tub. We used it on one occasion after dark and noticed a dirty film accumulating around the top of the tub. Three days after checking out, the property manager reached out to inform us that they were going to have to charge us to clean it. We were provided pictures that looked as if someone had dumped mud in it. We were then invoiced with the reason being "I have to do this." It is not a coincidence that this is the only possible upcharge that is mentioned when checking in.
I would advise staying somewhere else as this property needs quite a lot of maintenance that nickel and diming guests will not cover.
We really enjoyed this cabin. Lots of space for the family. We had a great time seeing the wildlife roam around the cabin. We would definitely book again!
Renting the property easy and convenient. The improvements needed are:
1. Fencing on right side needs to be fixed it is broken
2. The vents downstairs do not heat the bedrooms
3. The exhaust fan above the stove has not been cleaned in years
4. The floors have not been mopped in a while
5. The mattresses need replacing
6. Wi-Fi definitely needs to be upgraded
7. A large screen TV needed especially for large families
Fell in love with this quaint little town in the mountains which has a lot of diversity. Hiking, fishing, camping, horseback riding, sightseeing, skiing, sledding, tubing and not to mention shopping, eating, gambling, and horse racing and all within a 20 mile radius.
