From the amazing drive up to the home, to seeing the entrance was well worth it. First view of the inside was the best. We all as a family very much enjoyed the home and the cleanliness of it as well. The location was perfect, the view of the mountains was PERFECT ! We would definitely be staying again soon! Hats off to the Owners!

The house was absolutely terrific. Would totally stay there again. Exactly as pictured. The bedroom with the two queen beds (not pictured) is just as well done as the rest of the house. Super comfortable all around. Plenty of space for the six of us adults and kids to eat breakfast and dinner. Also to hang out, play board games, watch movies and sports post-skiing / snowboarding at Apache. The reservation and check-in and check-out process was easy. Communication from the management company, Hummingbird Cabins, was 5-star. Thanks for the great vacation! Our group loved it!

Great home
I had a group of friends that helped me celebrate my birthday at Longhorn Vista in Ruidoso. The house was perfect for 3 couples. Everything was there that we needed except a corkscrew.
The only down side to the home is the stones leading up to the front door. They are in loose gravel and it is easy to trip on. If older adults are considering staying here, I would reconsider, as it is a fall liability. Other than that, it is a wonderful home to stay in.
10.0 / 10.0
Beautiful home
This home is stunning and one of a kind. It was perfect for our family with two master suites. The views are beautiful and close to restaurants and grocery stores. We wished we would’ve stayed longer!
