Eagles Rest: Soar Above It All

Embrace the high life at Eagles Rest, a mountaintop haven with stunning views across the valley to the majestic Sierra Blanca. This Spanish-styled retreat is perched just 1.5 miles from downtown Ruidoso, providing the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. With over 1,625 sq. ft. of space, Eagles Rest welcomes you with its open floorplan, soaring 11-foot ceilings, and expansive windows that invite the natural beauty of the pines into your spacious living area.

On the main floor, you'll find the living room, dining room, a fully equipped kitchen, and laundry, while two comfortable bedrooms and two bathrooms are nestled downstairs—ideal for couples or small families looking for both privacy and togetherness. Step out onto the multiple decks to breathe in the crisp mountain air, cozy up by the gas fireplace, or simply sit back and watch the local wildlife go by.

Eagles Rest is also dog-friendly, so feel free to bring your fur baby along for the journey. With level entry and central air conditioning in the main living area ONLY, this retreat makes relaxation effortless. Come experience a sense of peace and altitude that will make you feel as if you're soaring in the clouds—memories await at Eagles Rest!

PLEASE NOTE: Central AC is in the main living area ONLY; downstairs stays cool with ceiling fans.

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. Come relax and refresh with us!

Please Note: This home is dog-friendly with a limit of 1 dog. A pet fee of $50.00 (plus tax) per pet applies. Please let us know if you'll be bringing your furry friend so we can make the necessary arrangements. For their safety and comfort, pets are required to be kenneled when left alone in all of our pet-friendly cabins.

Even better than expected!

The pictures do not do this cabin justice. It is beautiful, comfortable, and in a quiet area. The view from the deck is spectacular, especially in the mornings when the sunrise makes the mountains look pink.

Peaceful Mountain Getaway

Nestled in the whispering pines of Ruidoso. Beautiful 2 bedroom 21/2 bath beauty. The neighborhood was quiet, cool and clean. Watch the hummingbirds on the balcony, See the occasional deer strolling by as well as turkeys. As an added bonus, hear the Elk bugling in the canyons. Great experience, great location.
