King Arthur's Castle: Feel Like Royalty

PLEASE NOTE: The master bedroom's fireplace is not for guest use.

Welcome to King Arthur's Castle, a stunning 1,824 sq. ft. home perched on a hill, offering breathtaking views of the entire village of Ruidoso. This charming retreat is designed to make you feel like royalty as you relax on the expansive front deck, soaking in the stunning scenery and fresh mountain air.

Inside, you'll find beautifully renovated flooring and a warm, spacious living area adorned with rustic yet modern furnishings while you cozy up to the wood-burning fireplace (firewood is NOT provided). Each bedroom is equipped with new TVs for your entertainment, ensuring everyone can unwind in style. The standout feature is the incredible loft-style master suite, complete with an en-suite bathroom for ultimate privacy and comfort.

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to whip up delicious meals, or you can take your culinary skills outdoors and grill while enjoying the picturesque surroundings. Don't forget to check out the captivating views of Midtown and the Inn of the Mountain Gods from the front deck!

For the ultimate relaxation, sink into the hot tub on the back deck, where you can soak away your cares under the stars. If you're looking for a vacation home that combines modern amenities with the rustic charm of a "cabin in the woods," your search ends here at King Arthur's Castle. Create unforgettable memories in this enchanting mountain getaway!

King Arthur's Castle is located 3 doors down from Casa delle Sorelle and less than 1 mile from Texas Gambler for larger group accommodations.

PLEASE NOTE: King Arthur's has 2 window AC units: one upstairs and one downstairs for the summer months.

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!

Spring Break Adventures

This was a beautiful cabin that felt like home away from home. One of the beds downstairs was very old that should be replaced. Some of the blankets didnt seem freshly washed but we washed the throws to our liking. All basic things available to cook or even grill.

The property exceeded our expectations and the view was unmatched. We enjoyed cooking, hiking, shopping downtown and watching all the wildlife from the decks. Deer and wild turkeys were frequent visitors. It was a great relaxing stay.

Great view

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The view from the front porch and balcony was absolutely beautiful. We would definitely stay at this property again. Only comment I would make about this property is if you have any issue with bringing luggage up multiple flights of stairs this may not be the property for you.

Great place, some flaws

The cabin itself is fantastic. The views are MUCH better than what you see in the listing photos! It's smaller than expected, but the cabin is great choice. The major flaws are the beds are awful, and very, very old. In one guest room you can feel the inner springs and in the master there are two very noticeable caved in spots, so that was disappointing. The oven also would not turn off, so maintenance had to come shut it off at the breaker...I'd suggest a call ahead to Hummingbird to make sure the oven works or you'll waste space and money bringing food to cook (apparently, the oven has been a problem in the past and they thought it was solved). Overall, a solid place if they address the beds and oven.

Honeymoon getaway

Absolutely love the area as we had never been there or heard of Ruidoso for that matter. The town has great shops and you can spend the day there. We also went site seeing and hiking. Saw elk, mule deer and wild horses while on our stay. And the weather… Weather was amazing!

Welcoming house. Sisters enjoyed quiet time together. Card games and visiting. Racing was sad to watch flooding and cancellations. Ruidoso village fires and floods are heartbreaking but we felt thankful to be in cabin above the turmoil. Enjoyed the views from deck
