Tucked Away Cabin: Your Hidden Forest Retreat

Discover the peaceful charm of Tucked Away, a secluded gem nestled deep in the forest, designed to offer a truly unforgettable escape. This elite, single-level cabin exudes comfort and tranquility, making it the perfect retreat for those looking to reconnect with nature. With two master suites and a level entrance, this cabin blends luxury and accessibility, providing a serene atmosphere for your stay.

The heart of the home is the spacious open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area, where huge windows bring the beauty of the outdoors inside. From here, you can step out onto the private back deck and enjoy the refreshing forest air—no neighboring homes in sight, offering complete seclusion. Whether you're sipping morning coffee or unwinding after a long day, the serene views provide the ultimate backdrop for relaxation.

Both master suites feature top-of-the-line memory foam mattresses, ensuring restful nights after your adventures. The cozy gas log fireplace adds a touch of warmth to your evenings, while the private hot tub offers a luxurious way to soak your cares away under the stars. Central air conditioning and internet keep you comfortable and connected year-round.

Tucked Away is designed with special care to ensure your stay is both relaxing and rejuvenating. With covered parking and thoughtful amenities throughout, this hidden gem offers everything you need for a perfect vacation in the heart of Ruidoso's forested beauty.

Ruidoso, Alto, and surrounding areas: Submerse yourself within the towering pines of Lincoln County and watch local wildlife such as elk, deer, wild horses, turkey, birds, and more in their natural habitats. Plan a day basking in the stillness of our national forest while hiking, biking, or fishing, golfing at one of our multiple golf courses or spend a fun night out on the town at one of the area's local attractions! Be sure to swim or fish at the beautiful Grindstone or Alto Lake, delight your senses at Winter Park with roller coaster and tubing, and explore the ski slopes and hiking trails throughout Ski Apache. Win big at one of our three local casinos and enjoy the excitement of live quarter horse racing at Ruidoso Downs Racetrack. Be happy you took a respite from the concrete jungle.
