Exactly what we needed

Cabin location was perfect- right in the middle of all Ruidoso activities yet quiet and peaceful. Well stocked with everything we needed for family cooking and was also pleasantly surprised with a little Christmas tree to complete our Christmas away from home. Plenty of space for the 5 of us and yet still cozy. We will stay here again!

Ruidoso Getaway

Great retreat for all ages. The back deck was used to barbecue and visit. The upstairs was enjoyed by all for card games, shuffle board and the top deck for enjoying the beautiful sunsets. It’s in a fantastic location. Close to gas stations, Albertsons, Grindstone Lake and downtown Ruidoso. The cabin is nestled away from the traffic with gorgeous views and Elk visits throughout each day.

Very cute place. Loved the shuffleboard. We even had the privilege of seeing several of the wild mustangs and 2 elks in the same day in the neighborhood. Everything was as depicted in the photos. Can’t wait to return.

We LOVED this property! Location, large decks, upstairs game room, and the layout with bedrooms on 1 floor made for an amazing experience. We have stayed at 3 properties in the area in the past few years and this one was the cleanest and best kept. We will definitely be staying here again.

Beautiful home

We were very happy with our stay. There were a few bumps but they weee minor. The upstairs game room had a large number of ants but the management company came promptly and took care of it. The listing showed two twin beds in the front but that turned out to be a queen/king when we got there. We adjusted and it was fine. The view is amazing and I would love to go back to stay again.

Beautiful Mountain View

Th cabin is well maintained and beautiful. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. The cabin was plenty big for our family of 17 and up. There were plenty of games to play in the evenings. We saw so many wild animals, mule deer, horses and elk in the next lot daily. It is nestled in a great location with amazing views off the patio. It was great for morning coffee and just talking with the family. We will definitely be back.

Crestview cabin relaxation

We stayed 6 nights. It was really good! Pros: surprisingly comfy beds, good linens, overall clean, back deck & grill area was great, nice fridge, good bathrooms. Plenty of kitchen-ware. Pots, pans & skillets, waffle iron, slowcooker, i think there was a blender & a mixer. There's a regular coffee pot & k-cup. We cooked every day & there really wasn't anything that wasn't there! The shuffleboard upstairs was a fun thing to have, I had never played. Everything in the house worked - all the tvs, wifi, all good. There's a washer & dryer, I did my laundry so I came home with clean clothes! Great view. Cons: awkward driveway!, but traffic on that street is not bad. Decent "fireplace" but if you're expecting a big cozy fire, it isn't, it's a remote control gas fire, warms the room, so-so to look at. The checkout "chores" are very reasonable, empty the trash & run the dishwasher. Highly recommend!

Fabulous Views

My family and had a wonderful time staying at this lovely cabin. The views from both decks were incredible! The cabin was very comfortable and functional for a family with children. Our only complaint is there needs to be an adequate amount of paper products for the length of your stay. We were there for 11 days and were told that the same number of items such as trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper and dish soap are left no mater how long you are staying. Otherwise, I would definitely recommend this cabin to friends!

Crest View Cabin

This is a very nice cabin that was a perfect fit for our party of 6 (4 adults a child and a toddler). Check-in was a breeze and everything was clean and worked as expected when we arrived. We never needed to contact the property manager. Beautiful view (we could see 4th of July fireworks from top balcony) and very convenient location. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit to Ruidoso, and the Crest View cabin was one of the main reasons why. Thanks very much.
