Great hosts! Super accommodating. The check in process was easy and explained well. The kitchen had just about everything we needed especially since we were on vacation and looking forward to not cooking. Nice bathroom w/ shower. The beds were very comfortable. The cabin itself was nice and a little rustic; just what we were hoping for. Quiet & set in the woods with a wonderful view of a valley from the back deck. A perfect place to relax, kick back and enjoy the peace & quiet but close enough to Cloudcroft, Ruidoso, Alamogordo and White Sands. Would definitely stay there again.

Great place. Don’t let the “off grid” keep you away. You will never know it with all the comforts of home as well as feeling so remote but literally minutes away from town. The back deck was awesome. Hearing an elk bugle was icing on the cake.
