4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, deck, screened in porch, garage Come ready to breath in the fresh mountain air and relax in this great mountain home. We named it "Mountain Escape" because it is our place to escape. The back wall of windows in the living room looks out to a great view. Stepping out on the deck you are in the tops of the trees. There is a hot tub/ spa for relaxing on the deck. Each bedroom has a King bed and en suite bathroom. The basement bedroom has a bunkbed as well as King bed and bathroom. Also, there are 2 portable cribs (bring your own sheet for portable cribs) and a high chair.

The house, the views, everything about this stay was amazing. My family had a great time & absolutely would stay again if the chance appeared. I would rate this stay 10/10

The location is close to town and in a very nice neighborhood. We've enjoyed the wildlife viewing which includes elk, wild horses, turkey, and deer. The neighborhood is quiet and the home backs up to trees which gives a feeling of total seclusion for great relaxation. The interior of the home is beautiful and clean. We enjoyed each room having it's own bathroom and the kitchen being fully stocked.

My family and I make it a point to travel to Ruidoso/Alto area at least 1x a year and like to rent different cabins each time. This time we brought additional family members who have never been to the area. This by far has been our favorite home we have had the pleasure of staying in. The scenery was amazing and the home had everything we needed to make our trip enjoyable. The family was amazed at the space and comfort this home had to offer. We will be staying here again!

This was the best stocked vacation home we have ever stayed in. It had everything we needed and more. Location was perfect. We loved seeing the wildlife ( deer, elk and turkeys) in the neighborhood. Everyone had their own space including bathrooms. Would definitely recommend.

This is the perfect stay for people who want to be close enough to town for a trip to the shops but far away enough to enjoy quiet nights staring at the stars.
Perfect size for our group of friends with room to spare.

Not often do you find King size beds in every bedroom, and each its own bath. Beautiful home, with such thoughtful details. Kitchen with great detail on your needs. And then there is so much wonderful outside sitting, hot tub and beautiful views. We saw elk, horses, deer, turkey and a fox while sitting on the deck.. Highly recommend this home!

Thank you so much for providing such a beautiful home for your guests. My family of 8 enjoyed the stay very much. Everyone had their own space with room to spare. The house was tidy and the beds comfortable. Every room having their own bathroom was GREAT! The area is so nice and close to all the popular spots.

The home was clean, spacious with comfortable beds. Each bedroom with it's own ensuite made the stay comfortable for all. The house has great spaces to hangout. The back porches whether up or down, great screened in area. The neighborhood is great for long walks with sightings of wildlife...wild horses, elk, wild turkeys, deer... it made a perfect getaway.
