About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Upper Canyon Cabin, 2 King Beds, Fenced Yard, Wildlife, Dog-friendly!
Mystic Pines is a three-bedroom cabin surrounded by free-roaming wildlife and pine trees! The large, peaceful deck gives the cabin a treehouse feel as you gather for morning coffee or an evening adult beverage. Centrally located for easy access to all things Ruidoso, Mystic Pines is the perfect home base for making memories with friends and family. Plus, there's a fenced yard with deck access so your pups can safely hang out with you!
Please note that the living area is 100% upstairs. Guests should be comfortable walking up a flight of stairs to enjoy the accommodations fully.
While the cabin is on high ground, safe from any damage, flood evidence is present in the Upper Canyon. Cleanup is underway. The Village of Ruidoso welcomes its visitors!
During the winter months, occasional inclement weather can occur. If roads become icy, a four-wheel drive vehicle or chains is recommended.
Note: Both king beds have quality hybrid mattresses that are on the firm side. While we receive many compliments on the beds, if you prefer soft beds, this cabin may not fit your needs.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a fenced private yard.

Memorial Day getaway
The cabin was a fantastic stay for our group of four. Our hosts were very attentive in communication, and had put great attention to detail in the outfitting of their property. If we are ever back in the area, we look forward to renting again!

Ruidoso trip
Overall very satisfied with cabin. Kitchen had a lot of kitchen tools most kitchens don’t have. Nice to have fenced-in yard for child and pup.

Beautiful quick family getaway
My family of six enjoyed our stay here. Weather did not allow for our planned activities but we had a great time creating memories over the board games and playing cards they had available. Thank you for sharing your home with our family!
