we had a great holiday in the mountains of Ruidoso!

We enjoyed staying at this house. It’s a beautiful property. There were a couple of cleanliness issues like dog hair on the sheets (luckily were dog people), dirty dishes (which we just rewashed) and mouse droppings in some cupboards but the house is located in the mountains, there’s bound to be critters that pop up. Seeing elk and deer day was such a treat and we would most definitely book here again.

Trash is an issue you are told to find a container to dump trash but there is known near property, everyone in neighborhood rolls out portable trash cans filled with garbage on a specific day but this home expects us to search the town for a large container to dump trash that in the end is not for this property.You are expected to pay a daily cleaning charge but NEVER see anyone showing up to clean.You are asked to clean all dishes not simply fill the dishwasher and start but empty and put up before leaving.What’s the cleaning fee for?All pots and pans need a upgrade I’ve seen worse but these pans are many years old! House has a pellet fireplace in the living room unfortunately there were no pellets to start the first day ,on second day someone showed up with pellets but admitted he had no clue on how to work one of these.Fortunately I was able to figure out but I can guarantee not for everyone does not have the look of a real fireplace.

The property was really pretty we saw a lot of wildlife!! Some things in the home could definitely be updated. The trash had to be hauled quite a ways to dump. There was a firepit advertised in the pictures but was not available for you which was frustrating. All and all it was good plave to stay!

We will stay again next year.

There were several items that should have been fixed before we arrived. There was trash left in the trash compactor, fridge was dirty, master tub plug could not be taken off without a knife, grill did not work, no ping pong balls for table and one of the paddles was broken(we bought and left new ones) I was really mad about this because I called ahead of time to ask if we needed to bring our own, pillows were extremely old and flat. Overall it’s a beautiful cabin but these simple/cheap things need to be addressed, especially since we are charged such a high fee for cleaning. Also, the guest being responsible for taking all trash to public dump and put all dishes back after cleaning is ridiculous, isn’t that why you pay these cleaning fees? I truly think this place could be magical and hope to see these simple improvements made. Otherwise I would have given it a top rating.

Beautiful kitchen Some amenities can improve like hand soap, towels, etc A bigger family room TV A DIGITAL THERMOSTAT would be nice

Perfect house in a perfect spot. Will definitely stay again.
