Incredible views of the city and mountains. Very clean and spacious. Only minimal negative was my daughter couldn’t get the jacuzzi jets in the master tub to turn on. We could also only find one sharp chef knife in the kitchen for our steak dinner; steak knives would be beneficial. Otherwise nicely equipped modern kitchen. We did see sleds stored outside the house after we had rented some from the park. Easy drive to White Sands park and the grocery store. Excellent house with 2 balconies!

The incredible view of the basin, the porch and deck off the bedrooms made this one of our favorite home rentals ever. Add the well-appointed rooms and the artwork and we thought it would be an ideal home for retirement!

An amazing quite place to spend a couple of days exploring Alamogordo and the White Sands. Set up on the side of the Sacramento Mountains, the views are incredible. Sitting on the deck in the morning as the sun came up behind us was a great experience. The home itself was meticulously decorated with artwork and high-end furniture. A well-stocked kitchen and enough linens made the experience delightful. He even provided saucer sleds to take to White Sands to slide down the dunes. Edward definitely takes the time to ensure his guests have a great experience. 10/10 would stay here again. Thanks Edward.

Great White Sands Visit

We spent two nights here so we could visit White Sands. Everything was super smooth, communication was good, check in was easy, directions were clear. The view was great when it wasn’t hazy out (sand and wind whipping up at all times of day). It was fairly steep getting to the house but we got used to it and it’s worth it for the view. The house was comfortable, beds are extremely firm. We realized you have to drive to most things in this area of New Mexico anyways so a 10-15 min drive was not a big deal. 30 mins to White Sands which was an unforgettable experience. My only feedback would be it would be nice to have a couple extra towels. We had one per person to shower and one hand towel in the kitchen and that was it. It was fine but could have used some extra when it was raining and we had wet shoes coming in the house and no mat. Overall it was a great trip.

Great Place - Terrible Host

Nice property and location. Horrible host. We have stayed in Alamogordo and Ruidoso multiple times for the past two years without issue. I admit we made a mistake by not bagging all trash and rectified the mistake immediately by picking up the trash and disposing of it ourselves. I don't think this warranted an ALL CAPS email lambasting us for the mistake. That should have indicated what kind of host we had. This is the only place out of at least 14 VRBO and Air BB rentals we have stayed, for the past two years, that we have had any issue with. Now we are being blamed for breaking a nightstand and a painting and leaving a GIANT mess. The only photos produced are a few spots on the floor and a couch??? I did not receive any photos of the alleged broken items. In fact we re-hung a piece of artwork that was falling down off the wall upon arrival. We are taking pictures of every space from now on when we arrive and leave a place. I do not want to have false charges added to our credit card with no evidence. We were also blamed for a faulty ice maker.
