King Arthur's Castle: Feel Like Royalty

PLEASE NOTE: The master bedroom's fireplace is not for guest use.

Welcome to King Arthur's Castle, a stunning 1,824 sq. ft. home perched on a hill, offering breathtaking views of the entire village of Ruidoso. This charming retreat is designed to make you feel like royalty as you relax on the expansive front deck, soaking in the stunning scenery and fresh mountain air.

Inside, you'll find beautifully renovated flooring and a warm, spacious living area adorned with rustic yet modern furnishings while you cozy up to the wood-burning fireplace (firewood is NOT provided). Each bedroom is equipped with new TVs for your entertainment, ensuring everyone can unwind in style. The standout feature is the incredible loft-style master suite, complete with an en-suite bathroom for ultimate privacy and comfort.

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to whip up delicious meals, or you can take your culinary skills outdoors and grill while enjoying the picturesque surroundings. Don't forget to check out the captivating views of Midtown and the Inn of the Mountain Gods from the front deck!

For the ultimate relaxation, sink into the hot tub on the back deck, where you can soak away your cares under the stars. If you're looking for a vacation home that combines modern amenities with the rustic charm of a "cabin in the woods," your search ends here at King Arthur's Castle. Create unforgettable memories in this enchanting mountain getaway!

King Arthur's Castle is located 3 doors down from Casa delle Sorelle and less than 1 mile from Texas Gambler for larger group accommodations.

PLEASE NOTE: King Arthur's has 2 window AC units: one upstairs and one downstairs for the summer months.

Ruidoso, Alto, and surrounding areas: Submerse yourself within the towering pines of Lincoln County and watch local wildlife such as elk, deer, wild horses, turkey, birds, and more in their natural habitats. Plan a day basking in the stillness of our national forest while hiking, biking, or fishing, golfing at one of our multiple golf courses or spend a fun night out on the town at one of the area's local attractions! Be sure to swim or fish at the beautiful Grindstone or Alto Lake, delight your senses at Winter Park with roller coaster and tubing, and explore the ski slopes and hiking trails throughout Ski Apache. Win big at one of our three local casinos and enjoy the excitement of live quarter horse racing at Ruidoso Downs Racetrack. Be happy you took a respite from the concrete jungle.

Wonderful property! Wonderful community! We had a great time. Future tenets need to know that the whole house does not have AC. Only the downstairs living room has AC. There was a heat wave when we were there so it was unseasonable warm. . .just be aware.

This was a beautiful cabin that felt like home away from home. One of the beds downstairs was very old that should be replaced. Some of the blankets didnt seem freshly washed but we washed the throws to our liking. All basic things available to cook or even grill.

We enjoyed this home very much. The views were out of this world. It was very peaceful and the accommodations met our needs. We decided to stay another night and the team at humming bird was able to extend our stay. We made a lot of family memories

What a view!

King Aurther Castle was a great place to stay. The view was amazing! Mornings on the porch watching the deer and turkeys stroll thru was a good start for the day! You are 30 minutes to an hour from lots of fun activities, or just stay and watch the deer!

Welcoming house. Sisters enjoyed quiet time together. Card games and visiting. Racing was sad to watch flooding and cancellations. Ruidoso village fires and floods are heartbreaking but we felt thankful to be in cabin above the turmoil. Enjoyed the views from deck

Great stay!

Five lifelong friends went on a road trip to Ruidoso. The home was wonderful! The stairs to get to the house did leave us breathless, it's quite a climb but we are all over 60. The view from the porch was absolutely beautiful!!! The only trouble we had was keeping the main door closed, it appears it may need to be adjusted. We really enjoyed the house and the memories that we made in Ruidoso!

Great place, some flaws

The cabin itself is fantastic. The views are MUCH better than what you see in the listing photos! It's smaller than expected, but the cabin is great choice. The major flaws are the beds are awful, and very, very old. In one guest room you can feel the inner springs and in the master there are two very noticeable caved in spots, so that was disappointing. The oven also would not turn off, so maintenance had to come shut it off at the breaker...I'd suggest a call ahead to Hummingbird to make sure the oven works or you'll waste space and money bringing food to cook (apparently, the oven has been a problem in the past and they thought it was solved). Overall, a solid place if they address the beds and oven.

Ruidoso cabin

The cabin was great, but customer service there was lacking. We had a bedroom door that wouldn’t open on the first morning. Luckily there was a door to the porch as well. We called that morning and never got a response the rest of the week. Honestly, all the door knobs there were suspect.

Location!

We really liked the location. Peaceful and the surrounded by nature. I arrived at around 330pm, 30 minutes early for check-in. We couldnt get into the house. The pin code does not work until 4pm. I wish they would have told us. We had the same issue checking out. We were locked out an hour early than check out time. We wanted to do a final check walk through the house after we packed our cars, but we couldn't go back inside. We were with toddlers, and I'm glad either of the kids was locked inside. Also, they require you to load and unload the dishes, most places we had stayed in, only required to load and start the dishwasher. All in all, the house is comfortable, clean, and peaceful.

Tired and in need of owner attention

To start I will say the management company did a good job with reservations and communication. The living area "looks" nice and kitchen "looks" nice. Now for the issues... The indoor temps during the day were in the mid 80s and the upstairs aircon unit in the MBR did not work and the one in the living room was so loud you could not hear to talk and it kept knocking off the breaker. The television in the living room did not work. Of 4 doors opening to the outside (two opened onto decks) only one, the main door really worked...not only is this an inconvenience (only access to upstairs deck from MBR is via a door that is stuck in place. Main deck has 4 seat raised chairs/table for dining but no chairs to relax in. Back patio furniture is so damaged by UV that you would not want to sit in any of the chairs...one chair is there (and broken through) to warn you. The couches in the living room are warn and main couch is extremely uncomfortable. The oven will not let you input "0s". Instructions were to wash (sanitize) dishes and put them away before checking out...hope you have 3 free hours because that is how long a full sanitize cycle takes in the dish washer. The house has houses on both sides which are not seen in listing...if you want to sit in the living room or out on the deck...the next door outdoor aircon unit was just feet from the house so you could hear that the neighbors had air con while you sweat.
