Wonderful cabin!

We had such a wonderful stay! This cabin has modern amenities but has classic cabin features. We also really enjoyed the decor- beautiful artwork! We also appreciated the bed setup in each room to accommodate for families to share. Thank you so much!

Great Mountain cabin

The pictures sure did this cabin justice! Lots of wildlife to observe right from the covered porch. Very quiet and relaxing place for a family getaway. Only two things we would like to change is for safety and convenience....Looks like a keypad for easy entry would be located on the front door for ease of operation. Putting safety strips in the bathtub will sure help a lot to prevent falls! Hummingbird Cabins has always been a delight to work with and this time is no different.

Great place for my wife and me and our two dogs

Love that there was a fenced in back yard for our dogs. The cabin was very clean and we had everything we needed. Wildlife was an added bonus.

Home away from home

Our family and fur babies loved our stay @spotted owl. It was clean, cozy and pet friendly. We would definitely stay again. Hoping that in the future they think about placing a king size bed in master bedroom. That would make our stay even better.

Waterless Day

Property is very nice but area was ravaged in the past by a fire. We did not have water on Friday Day so we could not shower or use the restrooms 9am - 4:30pm thus losing and changing our plans for that day.

Very nice house

House is a 10 out 10. Clean and well stocked. Sadly it sits in the middle of burned out forest. There was road construction all day long with semi’s going past the house. I understand it’s due to the fires and while I have great sympathy but they need to state the issues in the listing. Also the parking has been redone and you now have to carry luggage and supplies up the hill.

Nice house

The house was just as described. Very nice place with plenty of room. The one thing I would change is the Hot Tub! It was on the very bottom and had to many stairs to get to it. It was good exercise for me! I would recommend this house to anyone! It was so peaceful and nice! Although it is was not the first choice due to the fire and flooding it was the one we could get. Some how the web site hasn't changed to the one we stayed at. That would be the only trouble we had. Loved it!

Great property. Drive to the property on Cedar Creek was depressing with all of the fire damage all the way up to the house. Semi Trucks lined up and started at 5:30am everyday to load fire damage. Otherwise a great property and very pet friendly.

Mountain Magic in Ruidoso! 5-Star Escape at Spotted Owl cabin

This cabin was an absolute dream! From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The spacious kitchen was a chef's delight, allowing us to whip up delicious meals every morning and evening. We loved cozying up in the comfortable living room and catching a movie on the large screen TV after a day of exploring the beautiful surroundings. Speaking of beautiful surroundings, the hot tub and decking was the perfect way to unwind under the star-filled sky. The fenced in backyard was a haven for my chihuahua, who spent hours happily running around and sniffing out all the new scents. As a birdwatcher, I was thrilled! I spotted at least six different species flitting around the property, adding to the peaceful ambience. But the wildlife sightings didn't stop there! We were lucky enough to see majestic elk, curious turkeys, and even a band of wild horses during our stay. The entire neighborhood exuded a sense of tranquility, making it easy to understand why some people would choose to call this place home. Overall, our stay at the Spotted Owl cabin was truly unforgettable. The cabin itself was exceptional, the location was perfect, and the abundance of wildlife made it a nature lover's paradise. We can't wait to return someday!

Family vacation in the woods

Left the heat of West Texas to escape to this gem in the woods of Ruidoso. It is a very well appointed cabin that comfortable fit all 5 of us. We had a great time and we would return again next time we are in town.

summer vacation

The property was very nice, clean and updated. We would definitely stay there again. The only thing I could say that we wished was different was the grass in the backyard was pretty tall in spots, so it was hard for our small dog to find a place to us the bathroom. My husband called maintenance about it but we did not get a response. This was a minor issue. We had a great stay!
