Wolf Lodge offers not one, but two cozy living rooms, each complete with a wood-burning fireplace, creating perfect spaces for family gatherings or peaceful evenings by the fire. For those with a passion for games, the arcade room promises endless entertainment, featuring timeless classics like Pac-Man and Galaga on free-play mode. It's an ideal spot to challenge your family to some nostalgic fun.
Centrally located, Wolf Lodge places you just minutes from Ruidoso's vibrant midtown.

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.

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.

Enjoyed Wolf Lodge!

The property was beautifully renovated, comfy, and had plenty of entertainment with games, puzzles, books, and the arcade games. The kitchen was well stocked and the bathrooms had plenty of towels. And it was only about 8 minutes from the cute shops of Ruidoso. My family and I enjoyed it so much!

Family Weekend Getaway

Wolf Lodge was perfect for a long weekend with Family. Not too many places to pick from in Ruidoso that you can stay if you have pets. Love that every family had their own floor. Enjoyeed having coffee in the morning on the deck.

Riudoso Cabin

We immensely enjoyed our recent stay in Riudoso. The cabin was very clean and well equipped. Our grandchildren enjoyed the game room downstairs after busy days of exploring the area. The cabin was easy to find and while out of town, was close enough for a quick trip to Riudoso shops and markets. We enjoyed the Mountain View’s from the deck and would highly recommend this place to families!

Good but could have been better

So we checked in and that was easy. It was starting off great until we walked around the unit looking at all of the cobwebs, dusty TV's and upstairs railing. The main floor toilet was a bit on the dirty side as well and the dirty utensils and glasses in the kitchen. So we washed what we thought we would use and moved on with our stay. The last ting that wasn't working was one of the games. Someone had messed up the cables to the shooting game and they just had the cables tucked into the game. We thought a note from the staff would have been a good thing but we had to find out on our own. All in all it was a nice unit but there could have been a bit more maintenance on the unit. There was evidence of a tree that had fallen onto the deck and roof. It must have destroyed quite a few boards and a window or two. It made the slider door a bit hard to open and close but it was fine. There was also a few things that were good on our stay. We had a number of wildlife come through the yard and the Elk were amazing! So to wrap it up, it's a good location and it will be a better unit after a good dusting/cleaning.
