Family Time

We did enjoy our stay in the lovely Golden Pines cabin. We have been coming to Ruidoso since the mid 1970's and this is one of the best we have stayed in. We truly enjoyed the covered patio in the mornings and evenings. The decor was beautiful and the bedrooms were comfortable. We will definetly be back!

Annual Visit

We loved this location and the home was very warm and clean. There was more seating than usual and all very comfortable. Great master suite with comfortable bed. The bathrooms were very nice and spacious. Load/unload under the covered parking was nice. The hot tub was great! Peaceful neighborhood and still had privacy. This was our first Hummingbird property but will definitely look at them for our visit next year.

Great rental property

First off, I want to say DO NOT let Google maps find this house for you. It got us terribly lost. Just use the directions from Hummingbird Cabins. Other than Google Maps getting us lost, we had a great time. The house was clean, hot tub was nice. Great place for pet owners. The only thing I would suggest is that they replace the flickering kitchen lights and get a new bulb for the master bathroom.
