About this property

Cloudcroft Home w/ Spacious Stargazing Deck!

Experience the country life at this remote 2-bedroom, 2-bath vacation rental cabin situated on 10 lush acres in the Cloudcroft area! The spacious A-frame cabin offers 6 lucky guests stunning views of the surrounding woodland area from an expansive wooden deck, along with other unique cabin comforts, like wood beam ceilings and a wood-burning stove. Explore this gorgeous area by hiking at the nearby Trestle Recreation Area or skiing the slopes at Ski Cloudcroft during your stay!

-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2 (Open Loft): Queen Bed | Living Room: Full Sleeper Sofa | Additional Sleeping: 2 Air Mattresses

Start living the peaceful life in this 2,100-square-foot cabin with gorgeous rustic-themed furnishings and a picturesque forest view that perfectly frames sunrises and sunsets.

The open layout of the great room is lined with a multitude of windows that illuminate the entire area with an abundance of sunshine each morning. Start your day off by picking out which cup of Keurig coffee you want to enjoy at the 2-person breakfast bar while you plan out your activities.

After an adventure-filled day, there is no better way to refuel than preparing a carbohydrate-filled feast in the fully equipped kitchen with a 4-burner gas stovetop, two ovens, microwave, and all the necessary cooking utensils. Enjoy your meal at the wooden dining room table while gazing through the windows at the beautiful pine and aspen trees.

Lounge on the huge wraparound deck after your meal and enjoy an afternoon cocktail while trying to spot a multitude of different wildlife ranging from elk to hummingbirds. During sunset, you’ll be in awe of the various shades of color that can be seen through the foliage as the sun slowly falls below the tree line.

When the night comes to an end, enjoy a movie on the flat-screen TV with DirecTV at night, or head to one of 2 comfortably furnished bedrooms to rest up for the next day's adventures on cloud-like mattresses and beautiful wooden bed frames!

-- THE LOCATION --

Whether you’re in Cloudcroft for relaxation or adventure, this cabin is situated in the perfect position to experience the best of both worlds! Explore the 10 acres of canyon land all around the cabin to find wildlife or capture gorgeous pictures of the natural environment.

The town of Cloudcroft is a 13-minute drive away and offers a variety of different shopping outposts and delicious restaurants when you're not cooking at the cabin! Get yourself a full slab of ribs and delicious BBQ sandwiches at Mad Jack's Mountaintop Barbecue, only 15 minutes from your doorstep.

The Lodge is one of the most historic places in Cloudcroft and offers a beautiful 9-hole golf course to practice your game! For a tasty meal afterwards, Rebecca's at the Lodge is located across the street and serves up an array of delicious American contemporary cuisine.

Perfect place for a quiet getaway!

Everything was absolutely perfect, the cabin is clean and very nice with all the commodities you need. It is easy to locate and an easy drive into Cloudcroft. We have never stayed in a place so quiet and with great views all around. We loved just sitting on the deck and listening to the birds chirp. Will definitely be back!

Peaceful respite

This clean, well-equipped cabin in the forest was a peaceful respite. Being in the middle of nature away from the stresses of life was relaxing and restful. We enjoyed the scenery, the starry nights and viewing the wildlife. What a delightful home base to recharge our batteries. Great vacation!

Beautiful home in the woods

Just the perfect cabin for a getaway. So quiet and peaceful. Porch sitting was our favorite thing to do. We had elk come by. Just a short drive to the cute little town of Cloudcroft. The home had everything we needed and was very comfortable.

Awesome Stay

This property was great!!! Just what we wanted to get away for several days. The cabin was very clean and just the right distance from town. The garage is a plus especially if you are riding a motorcycle like we were. The drive away was not too steep and the road from the highway to the property was well maintained and easy to ride on the bike. We definitely would stay at this cabin again!!

Mountain Beauty

The house is a great place to be in the mountains,! However the A/C does not blow cold and the house really needs to be sprayed for flies, bugs, and mostly Termites.

Cabin Near Cloudcroft

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the cabin in the forest just outside Cloudcroft with the large deck. Elk, chipmunks, birds, and free range cows visited the property, and we saw elk and deer along the road into Cloudcroft. The other houses along the street are spread out, so there is a sense of privacy. We enjoyed strolling along the street. The highway is just down the street, close to be convenient but not obtrusive or loud. The house was comfortable with colorful southwest/cabin decor and helpful labeled lighting and very clean but could have used more lighting in the bathrooms plus living room for reading, microwavable dishes/containers, replacements for worn-out towels and window frames, and some niceties like luggage racks. The shower (with appreciated grab bar and seat) worked well - we didn't need to use the heat during our stay. Dish TV worked great. The laundry center (including basket) was very appreciated, as we didn't have to pack as much on our trip. We would have appreciated if the housekeeper took the trash/recycling into town instead of us. The property was just fifteen minutes from Cloudcroft with its walkable block of local shops and allowed for close day trips to White Sands National Park, Pistachioland, etc. Overall, we had a fun and relaxing time and recommend this cabin near Cloudcroft to all.

Very Clean!

This is a lovely cabin. It is very clean and we considered this a major winning point. The beds are definitely not the most comfortable. The master is very firm. One side of the king sized bed had memory foam on it and the other side did not. One person slept well and the other woke up in pain. Only other complaint is that the Keurig (which we were excited about) only took the VUE pods and not K cups. This was not clarified before the visit. Overall, we really enjoyed the cabin and would recommend it to others.

Relaxing and Quiet

We stayed Sept 11-16, 2022 and enjoyed rain the first couple of days. The cabin was clean with everything we needed to prepare meals except the food which we brought with us. It was nice to relax and stay in and enjoy the rain and rest from our trip. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and saw elk, deer, an owl, woodpeckers, hummingbirds, chipmunks, squirrels, bluejays, and some kind of pretty yellow bird we had never seen before. We sat out one evening with hot chocolate and were amazed at the number of stars and how beautiful the Milky Way was! It was amazing! We enjoyed building a fire and sitting by it in the mornings when it was extra chilly. Nicole provided so many nice amenities in her mountain cabin. We loved the cabin and the area, but the stairs to the deck and the stairs in the garage into the cabin were difficult for us and might make this cabin not the best for people with mobility issues. Other than that, the cabin had everything we wanted in a vacation cabin and we had a wonderful time. Thank you, Nicole, for sharing your mountain home with us!

In spite of rain everyday (this is the monsoon season for the area) we were able to enjoy deck-sitting daily. We had a great week. Saw elk, deer, chipmunks, and LOTS of birds. Cloudcroft is a great little village! Nicole is great and very responsive.
