Great Family Cabin

Our family enjoyed our stay at this cabin. Location and proximity to the OSHA trail was very enjoyable. Amenities were good - the kitchen is particularly well equipped to handle big family meals and it was great that they’re dog friendly. We had a couple minor plumbing problems and the owner was quick to reply and get it resolved. Minor gripe is the “just enough to get you started” for paper towels, tp, trash bags that so many properties seem to be doing now. Seems a little cheap for a property at this price point. That aside, we’d happily stay here again if we came back to Cloudcroft.

Bear Lodge

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. Overall rating was a 4 because the beds on the main floor were not comfortable, per the mother in laws that slept in them. I also think it would be good to put command hooks in the bathrooms for towels. The downstairs bed was amazing!!! The home is beautiful with lovely scenery. Loved the stay!!

Perfect family cabin

We will definitely be staying again. My family plans a trip to Cloudcroft about twice a year and this was by far the best place we have stayed. The house was just as listed. Clean, very well stocked, comfortable beds and so much room for kids. Having the cabin back up to the national forest was awesome. Not having a house behind us and all the wildlife was perfect. The location was perfect also just a short drive to the shops and restaurants.

Peaceful location and amazing cabin

Location of the cabin was spot on, backing right into Lincoln National park, dear came almost right up to the hot tub! We walked the Osha trail which was great as we had 2 elderly dogs and they managed really well, very spacious cabin with excellent facilities, thank you for letting us stay 🙂

Excellent Mountain Getaway

Loved our stay in the cabin. It was well maintained, stocked with everything we needed, and plenty of space. We loved hiking around the property and surrounding trails, exploring the town, skiing/tubing, and loved the bbq and brewery spots in town. Great home base for everything we wanted to do!

Amazing Cabin

We had such an amazing family trip and this cabin was perfect for all (16) of us, really spacious only down fall for US was that there was only two restrooms but other then that we all had fun and the foosball table was a hit. We didn’t get to see snow which we were really excited about, but we got to go to the ski resort with artificial snow

Spring break getaway

House was as listed, and offered plenty of sleeping arrangements and blankets. The only issue was it looked like the dishwasher did not work all that great. It had lots of residue and many of the utensils in the drawers were dirty. Other than that, no complaints. You are close to everything in town and lots of wildlife in the back.
