Love the location just up the mountain between Alto and Ruidoso tucked in a quiet neighborhood. No fire or mudslides in this area. We were a senior couple and our dog. Felt like a home away from home. Loved throwing chopped apple over the deck rail each evening and watching our new deer friend come to eat. Any questions we had were quickly answered by the owner. The house is very clean and lots of room with a great deck looking at trees and a few housetops. Would definitely stay here again.

We had such a great time at this cute little mountain getaway. We saw deer around the property and the back deck was a great place to drink our morning coffee. We will definitely be back.
