About this property

Casa Escondida | Pet Friendly, Hot Tub, Views

Loaded with opportunities for nature lovers from skiing at nearby Ski Apache to fishing, hiking, biking, or horseback riding in Alto Lake, Casa Escondida is the perfect place from which to experience it all! Just a short drive away Ruidoso Winter Park offers snow tubing in the winter months and zip-lining year-round. For the golf enthusiast, the Links at Sierra Blanca is just a ten-minute drive away. And less than half an hour away, Fort Stanton-Snowy River Cave National Conservation Area, the Hubbard Museum of the American West, the art galleries and artisan shops of Sudderth Drive, and Grindstone Lake and Trail System offer even more fun diversions. There is so much to see and do!

Then there's Casa Escondida itself, this spacious mountain retreat sleeps ten altogether and features five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, an amazing deck, and lush forest and mountain views. Sumptuous seating along with a large flat-screen cable TV make the living area a delightful place to spend time with family or friends, whether you’re watching a movie after a day of skiing or hiking, surfing the web courtesy of the free Wi-Fi, or just having a chat by the stone fireplace while enjoying a cup of cocoa or a glass of wine. Nearby, Casa Escondida's dining area is a great place to gather for a family meal or game of cards, while the kitchen has everything you need to prepare as simple or lavish a meal as you could wish.

The view from Casa Escondida's spacious deck is truly mesmerizing. Two of the bedrooms (both with king-size beds, TVs, en suite full bathrooms and other comfortable touches) open right onto it! The third and fourth bedrooms have queen-size beds which is ideal for when you're traveling with another couple, and the kids will get a kick out of the southwestern décor in the fifth bedroom with its pair of twin-size beds. A third full bathroom with shower/tub combos means everyone can get ready faster, and all towels and bed linens are provided. Plus, a laundry room with washer and dryer negates the need to find a Laundromat (or over pack)!

Close to Alto Lake, Ski Apaches, and everything the Sierra Blanca area has to offer, Casa Escondida is a dream location for a family or friends to enjoy the ski trip or summer vacation of a lifetime. So what are you waiting for? Book your stay today!

Septic problems

We we arrived we had a terrible smell inside house. I called that same day, no response then I texted property management and got a response that they were sorry about the smell then I made another call after 5 days and spoke with a person and said it was either septic or gas smell and it needed to be checked. Finally they sent out a person and he immediately said oh my it is the septic. Thst very day it was pumped and the smell left. It would have been nice if they would have taken care of this immediately.

Recommended for large families!

Great location, beautiful house! A little disappointed with not being able to use the downstairs patio due to repair work (was not notified ahead of time). Not enough paper towels, tissues or any shampoo for guests which I found weirdly cheap,
