Good stay at the fun house

It was a great place to stay but the house is on a slight angle. We called it the fun house because of this. It isn’t a significant thing but I think the bed could be leveled. I also wish there were fans to circulate the air. That than that it was a very nice place that made it easy to access midtown.

Ruidoso Weekend

The property is very nice, clean, and well appointed. The location is amazing. It is very small but it worked for my husband and myself. It would be a tight fit for a family. The tv in the back bedroom wasn’t working but other than that, everything was great. We would definitely consider staying here again.

Great cabin!

Was hesitant on booking this place, but we ended up being very pleased! I would say it is a little small for 4 people. It would’ve been better if we had small kids, 2 teenagers & 2 adults was a little crammed for us lol! The location was the best part!! Also thankful for the portable heater in the bathroom! Host would answer questions almost immediately! Everything was nicely cleaned, bed was comfortable, and the kitchen had everything you need! Bathroom door needs to be fixed, it doesn’t latch/lock. Overall, a great stay and I would book again!
