Comfy Ruidoso Cabin

My husband and I really enjoyed staying in this cabin for a week in August. We sat on the back porch with coffee and the hummingbirds in the morning and on the front porch, for the sunrise, and every evening. The living room was spacious with leather furniture and throws for chilly evenings and the air conditioning was welcome on a couple of warm days. The king bed was very comfortable, the kitchen well equipped for our needs, and the bathroom worked well for us with plenty of hot water and water pressure. The driveway is a little tricky so we decided to park in the space up top and walk up and down the nice steps beside the driveway. We enjoyed the town and all the scenery in every direction we drove. The location is convenient and quiet with greenery all around. We would definitely stay here again! Austin, TX

The home was very dusty

The house was in a great location. It had been well taken care of but you need to get your maid service to do a thorough dusting of the home.

Weekend Getaway

Growing up in El Paso, I spent many summers in Ruidoso. Now, living in Houston, I miss it in every way. On my most recent trip, I decided to nix the hotel route, and looked on VRBO, where I found this lovely cabin. It is beautiful and was perfect. Aside from its great location and having everything we needed, Mike and Monica were the perfect hosts. I'll be coming back!

Beautiful place

Beautiful place to have an escape from the city. 15 min max from the convenience stores which is important. I definitely go back soon. The only thing that we found and is not bad, is that the beds need a new mattress. Everything else was perfect.

Little gem of a place and loved the gas fireplace. Just a couple of things, the driveway is super steep and right at a curve so difficult to back in. I don’t know that you could get in and out during snow season. There were only 4 small spoons. Would be nice to have a good silverware set and knife set (knives were dull). Would be great if pillow top mattresses were put on the beds. What they have are old and very smooshy. No overhead lights in bedrooms so a bit dark with only 2 lamps. No dishwashing soap, no laundry detergent, and no soap/shampoo/cream rinse samples. Usually the vrbro’s I’ve stayed at have all that. Decks were wonderful to sit on. Deer and wild horses came through the property. Super comfy coaches and plenty of seating if you have 5 or 6 people staying. The drive into town is 7 mins - that was nice. The owner/manager was lovely. Casa Blanca had great mexican food and awesome margaritas. Make sure to reserve a table if you’re going to Michael J’s Italian. Great little hidden pottery shop NEXT TO Earth and Stone Pottery. Gave it 5 star because it was lovely to flop out on comfy couches in front of the fire and watch football after a big day of hiking.

Great mountain vacation

Great house. My daughter loved sleeping in the loft. Great location, not far from town; however, it has the remote feel. Mule deer came up every morning and night. Ate apples right from my daughter's hand. Huge elk visited us as well. The covered back deck is excellent for when it rains. Only issue was the steep driveway. My rear wheel truck couldn't get out, tires kept spinning in gravel. However, there is a flat parking spot at top. 100% recommend this property.

October stay

The property is explained well in the description. However, we did have trouble getting into the property. Michael called us but it took about 10 min or so. The fire place is gas and did not work. The shower curtain rod fell down and come to find out it was duct taped so the expandable rod didn't work. I don't care about the curtain rod although it was a pain and was put back up. I did rent the cabin specifically for the fire place and that didn't work. So over all not a bad place. It was nice and clean.

Clean, not impressed.

Could not get into the cabin as the code would not work. The driveway to the house is very steep getting in or out was a headache to say the least. The cleaning fee of $150 is outrageous considering they want you to take the trash out and put towels away... not a big deal but we got charged so they can wash the sheets pretty much. Overall the cabin is in a good clean condition but the fees, conditions and the driveway made me not want to repeat business.

Made Christmas Memories

Made some Christmas memories to last a lifetime. This cabin really was the perfect December/Christmas getaway our family needed. The cabin was perfect for our family of 5. Even our 3 month old felt right at home. This cabin was everything we expected and than some. Labels around the cabin make it easy to know what when and where to use stuff. The covered patio was perfect for those beautiful snow showers or rainy days. The fireplace warmed our hearts and the cabin perfectly. There's plenty of room about the cabin. The beds were very comfortable and they provided lots of warm blankets for those chilly nights. We enjoyed feeding the deer EVERY day. One deer was friendly enough for the kiddos to feed and pet at the same time. The town is right down the road and a great place to explore or if you need a few more things, shop. PERFECTION is how we would describe our Christmas getaway here at the Lewis Lodge. Mike and Monica were just a phone call away if and when we needed anything. Thank You. We don't have a bad thing to say about this place and would love to come back. Even if you don't ski, you should check out the Ski area just north of the cabin, about 40 minutes. It's well worth the drive because of the view and snow. There is also a fun family snow tubing area right up the road. I would definitely recommend this cabin for families or even a romantic getaway for couples. We LOVED every bit of it! Thank you :)
