"2nd time at this older, (1960ish?) Mom and Pop motel. We drove out of our way so we could stay here again. We just love this little motel. Lots of remodeling and upgrades. Always so clean and neat, smells so good when you open the door. Beds are nice and comfortable with lots of pillows, Plenty of clean towels and lots of nice hot water.

Silver Bullet Airstream / hosted by El Mistico
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (6)
"We absolutely loved the property and the stay. A night away from the world and just some peace in the fresh air is exactly what we needed. One big issue we had was that VRBO/host failed to send the proper codes to enter the property so without cell service or Wi-Fi it was literally impossible to get in. We had to drive out about a mile to get in contact with our host. I would have appreciated that Info in advance"

Mountain Getaway Minutes from Ski Apache & Midtown Ruidoso
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (22)
"We loved this VRBO! It is just a 12 min or so drive to Ruidoso and 5 mins off the highway tucked in the beautiful hills. The tubing at winter park and ski Apache was literally 3 minutes down the highway. Also, just a 15-20 min drive to all the great hiking areas. The house was modern and incredibly roomy with 3 very large bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The sheets were soft, but best of all they had a big L shaped couch that the 4 of us flopped out on every night in front of a real fire making s’mores...

Freya Geo Dome Suite at El Mistico Ranch
8.0 out of 10, Very Good, (1)
"Honestly the location is amazing. The dome is unique and very cozy. There is nothing negative I can say about the actual location at all! The host had to be called numerous times by me, my spouse and the other married couple there with their family waiting to get inside. We never got information from the host about how to get on the property and was stuck waiting on the host to finally take a phone call from us or VRBO representative."

"This property is absolutely beautiful. The house, location and views of snowy mountains. The only thing I can say is that the sunroom was not clean as the rest of the house. There was a lot of pet hair on floor and sofa in sunroom. Dog urine spots in sunroom. Otherwise everything else was great. We would highly recommend this property. The Cantu Family"

"Our family has stayed at numerous VRBO properties in New Mexico over the years and this one was the best in every way. It was clean, nicely furnished, beautiful location, close to town, and the property manager and housekeeper were very responsive. We had a wonderful, relaxing family time together. We all agree we want to stay at this property again next summer."

"Great stay for myself and husband, daughter and her friend. Pool table was a hit with the teens. Beautiful area. Easy drive to town. Only downside is the third bedroom was not used and who ever would have gotten that room would definitely have the short end of the stick. As the room is very small and bed seemed a bit older. The other bedroom downstairs was used by my husband and myself and it sunk in the middle some we noticed. So maybe a new mattress needed. Otherwise a wonderful stay. Loved...

"Overall this is a great location. Convenient to near by attractions. The upstairs portion of the house does get a little cold compared to the downstairs, but a few extra blankets on the bed and it’s great! Cheryl was very friendly and accommodating throughout our stay! Would definitely book again."
