Beautiful place, not close to downtown but easy to get there. Perfect for family or a group of friends. During winter/snow time is highly recommended to have a suv 4x4. Specially when you have to go up and down hill to get to the cabin.

House was fun! We spent a lot of time There enjoying the view.
By Adriana, Posted: 10/09/2022
We wanted to get away from the city life and decompress and Alto, NM gave us just that. This cabin was so quaint, clean and perfect for a couple get away vacation. My husband and I plan on coming back. We saw deer and elk every day and even though we had rainy weather, it was beautiful. The scenery surrounding this cabin is beautiful and so is the cabin.

It was a very nice experiences for the whole family. Unlike most our "regular" vacations, we didn't have a "to-do" list this time. Just sitting in the room or outside could calm you down and relax. The host provides all kinds of pans, seasonings, cooking oil, and tons of kitchen tools.

Amazing views and great host

Secluded with a great view
You drive up a steep driveway and then carry your things up a tall staircase to a beautiful deck with a killer view where you will spend all your time. The fish eye lens distorts sizes a bit but the upstairs bedroom is a really nice size to relax and spread out. The walk in closet is nice for unpacking and organizing your things. Sierra escape is a cozy, comfortable place. We definitely enjoyed being out of town and the serenity of the neighborhood.

We really enjoyed this little cabin and the view was wonderful. We used the grill and the hot tub. Location was convenient.

By Tiberius, Posted: 05/20/2022
We were very happy with the quickness of the staff responding to all of our messages. Thank you so much for allowing us to enter the property early on check-in day.
We would 100% recommend this cabin and working with Hummingbird Cabins. We are already discussing coming back next year.
Thank you for the amazing place to stay! We loved visiting your town!
By Tiberius, Posted: 05/16/2022
We had a wonderful time at this cabin! The grill was clean and plenty of propane was provided. The hot tub was great after the day of hiking. The master bedroom was always wonderful to walk into with its good size and expansive views in the morning and evening! The driveway was steep, but easy to figure out after the 1st time up and down. Absolutely loved the place and its location.

Nice location, clean, fast wi-fi, good communication with host
By Kimberly, Posted: 01/28/2022
11/10 You will not be disappointed if your book your stay at this home. It was very clean, included everything you needed (towels, kitchen utensils, grill, fire wood, washer and dryer, even little details like travel size toothpaste) I was also impressed that they had smart tvs, so you can connect your Netflix account and have a cozy movie night. Our trip was very satisfying; the location is perfect, it was not overcrowded but do plan to travel on a vehicle that can drive steep hills! Overall, it went beyond my expectations, it is way more beautiful in person???

Very nice house, perfect location, great outdoorsy feel without being too far from town
By Kelly, Posted: 10/04/2021
The home was just as it was in the pictures. We found our stay here to be great and just what we were looking for. Less than 10 minutes to Ruidoso, but secluded enough to enjoy peaceful mornings and evenings on the porch listening to the elk! Check in/out and communication with management was also very easy. We would definitely consider staying here again.
By Valerie, Posted: 09/04/2021
Very nice place and very clean. The house was easy to get around, and the hot tub very comfortable.
By Kendra, Posted: 08/10/2021
Property looks exactly like the photos. Beautiful view and great hot tub. Driveway is a little steep but we got used to it. Location is perfect for enjoying everything around Ruidoso.
By Mitchell, Posted: 07/14/2021
Nice, spacious home in a great location near Alto Lake. Highly recommended!
By Joel E from Canyon, Tx, Posted: 07/10/2021
PERFECT FOR A FAMILY GETAWAY!!!!!!
The cabin was great and really clean. We saw several wildlife around the cabin and neighborhood. We are a family of five and this cabin gave us all plenty of room to spread out and relax. The hot tub was perfect. It is a couple of miles from Ruidoso which helped it to feel nice and quiet but very accessible to all at Ruidoso has to offer. We’ll definitely be back!
By David, Posted: 06/26/2021
My wife and I had so much fun with our family here that we are considering retiring here. The cabin is on a huge lot. It was lots of fun to explore with my son. We stayed for a week and saw deer and elk every morning. This was the most comfortable rental property we have ever stayed at. We will come back.
By James, Posted: 06/22/2021
Great views and very clean. No neighbors on each side very private but in a very nice Alto subdivision. We had a heat wave and we had central heat and air but upstairs had no vents except in bathroom, so quite hot upstairs at night but overall impressed with house.
By Sherman, Posted: 06/15/2021
We stayed 2 nights and just loved this cabin! Hot tub was great and mattresses comfortable ( spinal fused back approved) We will be back again later this summer!

Sierra Escape
The views from house are gorgeous and only minutes away from Ruidoso. House was well stocked and new beds are very comfortable. We will stay here again!
By cesar, Posted: 04/05/2021
I really appreciate the quick communication following the pilot went out. i also appreciate the xtra hour y'all allowed. It gave us the needed time to ensure we didn't forget anything.”
By Monica, Posted: 03/22/2021
The location worked for us, the views from the home were gorgeous, the setting was very peaceful, and the hot tub was great. The overall home was comfortable and quiet. We didn't use either of the fireplaces, but the house temperature was easy to adjust. We came for spring break just for a getaway, and it was fine.
By Whitney, Posted: 03/17/2021
Great area view of mountains with snow! Overall easy place to find, kids loved the deer coming by. Will recommend to friends and family.

Everything was great! The cabin was very clean! We felt at ease reading the binder that was left out about the way you clean and sanitize everything!! Thank you!! We will definitely came back soon but with more of our family members!
By Monica, Posted: 07/02/2020
The property was clean, well stocked. the view was awesome. Rooms were spacious. Hot tub could be a little warmer but still wonderful. Would recommend this property. We hope to be back soon
By Scott S, Posted: 02/12/2020
Very nice. My first time staying in Alto, and would happily do it again.
By Patty, Posted: 06/10/2019
The cabin was great - needed kleenex and they should try and fix the floor creaking issue and maybe invest in new deck chairs - the maintenance guy was fabulous - fixed the water and hot tub issue immediately! Great stay!
By Mariah, Posted: 06/06/2019
Fast and easy check in, fast and easy check out! Very nice and clean place. We definitely enjoyed our stay!
By Kevin, Posted: 05/07/2019
The property was everything we needed and more. Great place to stay, looking forward to returning.
By Deborah, Posted: 04/24/2019
This was a perfect escape for our family. Grandma and Grandpa enjoyed the quietness and privacy of the upstairs suite. The 2 downstairs bedrooms were perfect for our adult grandchildren and 3 grandbabies. We found everything we needed. Being in the cabin was a needed res. Stair are not for th faint of heart.
By Connie, Posted: 02/19/2019
House had amazing location and was very relaxing. Would highly recommend. Had great walks and the Alto Lake trail is very nice. House was clean and cozy. Only small detail has big windows facing the mountain that are double pane windows and have big hand prints in the middle, tried to clean them and noticed was on the inside between the glass. Also the RO water spout was very loose. That was only negative overall and awesome relaxing place to chill and watch all the animals! Thanks for great rememberable family trip!
This review is from VRBO.

Awesome place to stay. Beautiful home with a beautiful view.
By Derek, Posted: 05/21/2018
The views from the cabin were unbelievable! By far one of the most unique cabin settings we've ever stayed in. The hot tub was also a nice touch, although a hose to refill it would have been helpful after a few uses. Overall it was a wonderful place to stay! Thank you for offering this wonderful place to stay! The only suggestion I would offer would be some light maintenance on the hot tub, as some of the jets were not not fully functional. Other than that, everything was perfect!
By Elizabeth, Posted: 03/19/2018
My family and I stayed at Sierra Escape during spring break and had a fabulous time. The location is great, the house was very clean and cozy. Hot tub was very nice as well, very clean. We had a spectacular view from the upstairs bedroom and the deck. You could sit at the windows and watch the wildlife would come right up by the house. The only negative thing that I have to say is that the King size bed in the loft area was not very comfortable and the drive way is a little scary if it has been snowing. Also there is no lower level entrance so you have to pack your bags up the stairs to enter the house, which would be difficult for some. We will certainly return to Sierra Escape for another vacation. We travel a lot and my children listed this vacation as the best we have taken.
By Laura, Posted: 10/23/2017
The cabin is in a nice location in Alto. The driveway is super steep, so unless you have 4wd in the winter I don't think you'll make it. Has a beautiful wrap around porch with a grill and a hot tub - most mornings we would sit out there and have breakfast and our coffee - the view is phenomenal! Our first morning there our group was taking showers at the same time and the water came out smelling like rotten eggs - stunk up the entire house for our whole trip. I don't know if no one had stayed in a while or what, but that was unfortunate. And then another word of caution is that the master bedroom upstairs, while amazing with a fireplace, is a loft and there is no door or privacy. I liked this place a lot, but I would not stay as a group again.
By Michael, Posted: 09/18/2017
Quiet you could hear the elk calling in the middle of the night while relaxing in the hot tub, really peaceful. Deer walking in the front yard. Will definitely consider our stay again. I just hope they fix the rotten egg smell from the plumbing before our return.
By Tommie, Posted: 08/14/2017
We loved this cabin. It was secluded with stunning views of the mountains and wildlife all around in the mornings. There were plenty of restaurants in the short drive to town.
By David, Posted: 07/28/2017
My wife and I stayed here for our 15th Wedding anniversary. We loved everything about the "Sierra Escape". There is a large great room with a great sectional couch and flat screen TV with cable channels and Wi-Fi internet. The Hot Tub out on the large porch is new and the view of the stars at night can't be beat. We saw several deer 20 feet away from our front porch just grazing on the grass after the rain. "Inn of the mountain Gods Casino" is not very far and the slots were nice to us. You have to try this place it's a little slice of Heaven!
By Christine, Posted: 07/20/2017
This is a great property. The living areas a very nice and large with beautiful views. The hot tub was wonderful. The appliances are a bit dated but work just fine. The location is just far enough from town. It is not remote but ver quiet. The only complaint is that hey have a toilet paper shortage Only 2 rolls per bathroom) That wasn't enough for a family of four for 5 days. Also, you have to carry every bit of trash out of the house and find a dumpster somewhere in town. Not so bad during the week, but on the last day, with all your luggage packed and having to put that nasty trash on top of your stuff is inconvenient at best. They need to allow one bag of trash to be left on closing day. It also took forever to get our deposit back. Otherwise the rental agents were excellent and the property is very nice. We would do it again.
By Terri & John, Posted: 07/12/2017
Me & my husband got married in July but waited till November to rent a cabin to take our honeymoon. Was it worth it! The cabin was not only located in the mountains but was hidden away just enough to be near the road & be away from any neighbors. The cabin was beautiful. Hummingbird Cabins had everything you could dream of stocked ready for use in the cabin. I would love to take another trip & we would only stay in a Hummingbird Cabin. Thanks again for everything you do hummingbird cabins! Terri & John

I got the pleasure to stay in the Sierra Escape cabin. My family and I just loved everything about it. Made us feel right at home. The view was perfect and so was everything else. Everything was provided for us. We just loved it, definitely would go back.!
By Vickie, Posted: 07/18/2016
We stayed at Sierra Escape. Great views. Much enjoyed! VERY NICE!
By Hank, Posted: 03/15/2016
We stayed at the Sierra Escape Cabin and it was nice and clean. Hot Tub worked great and it had a wonderful view. Everything worked in the cabin so no complaints and the location was perfect as El Capitan Mountain was just down the road. If this cabin represents what Hummingbird Cabins have in other locations, I would strongly recommend that you stay in a Hummingbird Cabin.
By Randy, Posted: 08/18/2013
We stayed at the Sierra Escape which was very nice, two bedroom with huge loft for the master. Nice kitchen and great location. The only downside really is that the cabin must be left spotless, and all trash has to be hauled to one of the "community" garbage cans. That means with a family of four, leaving at 6AM, we have to pile our garbage on top of our luggage and find a trash can somewhere. Overall the management was very nice, and the cabin was good. They need to make an allowance for at least one bag of trash to be left. We did leave an open ilk container in the fridge and we'll see if we get our $300 deposit back.
By Randy and Julie, Posted: 07/12/2013
We stayed at The Sierra Escape for 6 nights in July. It was hot the first couple of days so the AC in the cabin was appreciated. The house itself is spacious, well decorated clean, and charming. We have a 14 year old and an 11 year old and they stayed in the downstairs bedrooms and we stayed in the enormous loft bedroom. All the utilities functioned very well, and the kitchen is very well stocked with Utensils and dishes. The location we found to be excellent, with great views of Sierra Blanca right off the deck. The hot tub was easy to operate and was very pleasant in the evenings. The location is just far enough from town, but close enough to drive in for dinner if you need to. Two minor issues. We ran out of toilet paper, so I read the instructions (there are a lot of them, and since they have a rather large deposit, we didn’t want to miss anything). Bottom line is they only stock 2 rolls per bathroom and can’t really replace it if you run out. Not a problem, but we need to know that ahead of time. Second, You can’t leave any trash on the property, that means that on departure day you have to strip every last napkin front he house, and haul a stinky bag of garbage on top of you luggage, to a random “community” trash bin. Kind of weird. A better option would be to allow one small bag of last morning trash to be picked up by the housekeepers. I would rent this cabin again, and the Hummingbird cabin folks were very nice. I would say one more thing. Every single person I came into contact with in New Mexico, and Ruidoso in particular, was real damn nice. Real genuine, and a pleasure to converse with. Good on ya New Mexico, you’ve raised your people well.
By Lydia, Posted: 07/09/2013
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sierra cabin. It was very homey and gorgeous; we can’t wait to book our next trip to Ruidoso. Thanks!
