Memories in the Pines

By Jana, Posted: 06/22/2021

We rent often in the Ruidoso/ Alto area. This beautiful home was exactly what we needed. It had features that we have been unable to find in other cabins (a sauna, a new hot-tub with features that are lacking in older models) and it has quiet, pristine views. This is NOT the rowdy, party area of Ruidoso. It is an upscale neighborhood for those who appreciate nature and beauty. It is an easy drive into the rowdy, party areas for shopping, dining and site-seeing. One problem you may encounter is with your GPS or Map App. My husband and I use two different Apps which took us to two different locations and told us we had ‘Arrived.' Neither place was the right place. You must be willing to read street signs and realize that you are on a mountain. There are two very narrow, steep streets leading to the cabin. Once we figured out where we were, and that we could drive around Alto construction crews to get ‘home,' this cabin was the best choice we have made in the Alto/Ruidoso area. It is simply beautiful.

The house is very cute! Lots of space and fairly clean. We had wildlife visit us every morning and even.

“Amazing decor”

Great location tucked in the mountains near Ruidoso! The place was very spacious and had all the necessities. Nice to sit on the patio and watch the deer. Owner is friendly and responsive. Place feels generally clean but maybe just a bit more cleaning would make it feel perfect. Would recommend!

Lovely house; well kept and clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We were there for a friends get away to explore the area. This property gave us a lot of separate space as well as comfy togetherness when we desired. The kitchen was large enough that we could cook different kinds of meals to meet our food needs at the same time. We absolutely loved seeing the wild Elk, deer, fox and horses.

This is a great place to stay, they were accommodating an early check-in due to a recital dinner- The hosts were very responsive . The place was clean with great views and a herd of deer could be seen the day we arrived and the day we departed. Great place to stay and would stay again.”

This was one of the best vacations we've had in a while! The home is inviting, spacious and clean. We enjoyed the patio for eating dinner and balcony off of the living area for taking in the fresh mountain air, wild life and wild horses. We will be staying here again in the future!

Our stay was great! Cute place, lots of space.. lots of wildlife right outside the cabin! We saw 15 elk our last morning here!

A wonderful stay in a secluded area was just what we needed. The home is so pretty ! We loved it! The house itself was beautiful, although I mentioned earlier we had no sheets for the pull out bed and the towels we had to hunt for . I think your cleaning lady is rushing. Everyone loves to come and enjoy a beautiful deck in the mountains yet it has had no attention in the cleaning area. I know this is nature but there were mounds of dung everywhere around the parking area. It easily could have been shoveled off instead of us having to dodge it all weekend. Management note: the wild horses had been at this cabin multiple days prior to guests arrival.

We loved this cabin! My wife and I brought our 4 kids (14, 12, 10, 7) and stayed for 5 days. The cabin is as beautiful as the pictures show. It was extremely clean and well stocked with pots, pans, utensils and little things you might need if you decide to cook. The location was perfect for our family. It is on the side of the mountain with space for our kids to play outside while we were at the cabin. There is a table for 6 on the back patio where we ate dinner in the midst of the quiet beauty of the mountain and trees. While we were there we had deer come through the yard multiple times. The wild horses made a daily appearance that was the highlight of my 10 year old daughters day including 2 new colts to watch. We highly recommend this cabin. There is a warning on the last picture about needing 4 wheel drive and/or chains. The road was no problem in the summer, but I could see how the warning definitely applies for not only this cabin in the winter but areas all around Ruidoso/Ski Apache.

Perfect & Beautiful! We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The house was fabulous, the location was perfect, & the interaction with the wild horses was truly an amazing experience! If you choose to stay here, bring hay or purchase while visiting & have the most wonderful experience with the gentle giants! ??

Muchas gracias por su hospitalidad, no pudimos pasar mejor fin de semana en la cabaña, todo muy limpio y muy buen servicio, áreas recreativas cercanas y el area muy bonita, definitivamente volveríamos a estar ahí Gracias por hospitalidad

We were very happy with our cabin. It was spotless and very comfortable. We felt at home from the moment we arrived. We will definitely come back in the summer! Thank you!

The house was beautiful. We desperately needed a microwave. We got to town two hours early so I called and asked if we could get into the house early, she said no the cleaners where there. When we got there the cleaners had not been there because there was two foot of snow from the day before and no one could even get in the driveway. We parked at the bottom of the street all week and walked to the house because no one ever cleared the driveway.

Nice floor plan in really great shape and nicely equipped

By Owner, Posted: 12/19/2018

Our family went on a vacation to Ruidoso and fell in love....so much so we bought a house to enjoy all that the area has to offer for years to come. We love knowing that other families and friends will be enjoying our little slice of heaven as well. So please, come and stay and make your own “memories in the pines”.
