We had an amazing stay in Cloudcroft, NM. This home was in the perfect location (close enough for us to walk several places when it snowed too much to drive), was clean and equipped with everything we needed with Beautiful Views. The owners and property manager were very nice, informative, helpful and prompt when contacting them before/during our stay. We definitely recommend this home if you are staying in this area. The town is Beautiful and family friendly with lots to do. Thank you David and Anne Marie for letting us rent your home allowing us to have a memorable family vacation.

We found the property in a delightful place in town. Close to walk into town and a pleasant deck for late afternoon/evening relaxing. Well apportioned. The house had everything we needed. We were able to walk down to the art and wine festival and enjoyed our time.
Our only suggestion would be to begin replacing the pillows in the bedrooms. Beds were just fine. Plenty of room to spread out and visit or have some quiet time.
Thanks for providing such a wonderful place.

We had a great time staying here. From the moment that we booked the hosts were extremely helpful in finding things to do. The location of this place couldn't be better, we were able to walk to everything except the hiking trails. Extremely quiet and relaxing weekend, just what we wanted.

We decided at the last minute to make a road trip to New Mexico from Austin, TX, as our Southwest flights to Bay Area were canceled for multiple days. We needed more time to research about Cloudcroft area. Luckily, we could get this home for a few nights. David and Anne Marie were extremely helpful in providing the lay of the land about the area and activities. The home was fantastic in such a beautiful location. We felt like we could have stayed in a short-term rental but we rather felt staying in an actual home. Everything from the kitchen, bathroom, and beds are well stocked and well-maintained. There is a guide in the home about things-to-do, places to see in Cloudcroft, and surrounding areas which was extremely helpful. We spent our evenings playing games and cards there were available. If you're in Cloudcroft, look no other place than this fantastic home and awesome hosts.

We had a lovely stay. The owners were kind enough to warn us of an impending snow storm and offered early check in at no charge. The home is older but very well equipped with a lovely gas fireplace. We were able to walk to the nearby village and our kiddos enjoyed building a snowman in the backyard space.

Spent a long weekend here to get away from the Texas heat. This property was centrally located and walking distance from local stores and restaurants. Very clean with multiple wildlife spottings daily! Great Wifi and TV options. Would definitely stay again.

Great location! Perfect place for a weekend getaway with the family. Nice and quiet with a beautiful view. There was 7 of us and it was important that everyone had a bed (and not a roll away or couch). Well equipped kitchen to prepare meals. Lots of games and puzzles for entertainment. Only about a 7 minute walk to the town center- it is easy going down to town, it might be alittle steep going back up (for older people).

A Perfect Getaway!
The house is absolutely awesome! Everything is cleaned and clearly labeled. David and Anne Marie have thought of everything and they provided me with so many suggestions and tips for enjoying our time at the house. Its located perfectly! Just out of the way but the town is well within walking distance. I wish could put into words how perfect this house is and how awesome David and Anne Marie were but I cant. All I can say is if you are visiting Cloudcroft, you got to stay here. It has everything you need to have an enjoyable family stay, whether you are spending a day in town or enjoying game night inside, you cant go wrong! Thank you David and Anne Marie!

The property is in an ideal location as it is in walking distance to everything. David and Mrs. Ann Marie have stocked the home with pretty much everything you could ever need, even with a bunch of games and coloring books for the kids. Even with the fire restrictions and closures, there is a fenced in yard for the kiddos. We were in constant contact with the owners and they truly made us feel like houseguests rather than vacationers. We cannot wait to stay here again!

Family friendly and quiet neighborhood. Scenic drive to and from Alamogordo and Holloman. Enjoyed beautiful scenery and mountain air as well as wildlife walking by the property. Sleds came in handy for some family fun at White Sands. Kitchen had everything we needed for every meal, including making a big Thanksgiving dinner with all the fixings. Short walk to restaurants and shops. Would gladly stay again!

Breathtaking and Homey
Thank you SO MUCH to David and Ann Marie for hosting one of the greatest vacations I've been able to take with my family. My two toddlers adored the home, inside and out, and it was very safe and kid friendly! The property is gorgeous and the space just filled with love. Communication was open, comfortable, and we were able to relax and enjoy the beautiful town. The owners even gave us lots of rad recommendations on how to enjoy the town. Would ABSOLUTELY stay again!!

Comfy Cabin for White Sands Visit
Loved the location. We enjoyed staying in the mountains and taking the relatively short scenic drive to visit White Sands. One of our favorite parts of our visit was walking from the property down the street to the local brewery for delicious pizza and beer on the patio. The owners are some of the nicest people I have ever encountered on VRBO. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great trip. They sent extra recommendations on things to see and do with our kiddo and were very responsive and on top of things from start to finish. We highly recommend this property.

Mountain retreat
This property was clean and comfortable. There was full access to a functioning kitchen, extra towels and blankets and adjustable gas fire place. Also available was the use of two humidifiers which were utilized due to the dry mountain air. The owner was very flexible and attentive to our needs.

We had such a great time here this past weekend. The views are beautiful and was very well cleaned. They have books and games to keep the kiddos occupied. Will definitely be booking here again in the summer.
