Great White Sands Visit

We spent two nights here so we could visit White Sands. Everything was super smooth, communication was good, check in was easy, directions were clear. The view was great when it wasn’t hazy out (sand and wind whipping up at all times of day). It was fairly steep getting to the house but we got used to it and it’s worth it for the view. The house was comfortable, beds are extremely firm. We realized you have to drive to most things in this area of New Mexico anyways so a 10-15 min drive was not a big deal. 30 mins to White Sands which was an unforgettable experience. My only feedback would be it would be nice to have a couple extra towels. We had one per person to shower and one hand towel in the kitchen and that was it. It was fine but could have used some extra when it was raining and we had wet shoes coming in the house and no mat. Overall it was a great trip.

The house is in the foothills on the edge of Alamogordo. It has a fantastic view of the Valley including White Sands National Park. We stayed in early April and had nice cool mornings and evenings to enjoy the view.

Nice Views

House is comfortable and wonderfully located up a hill where you can see the city below, mountains, and White Sands in the distance. We watched the eclipse from the back driveway and had a clear view. We would recommend this house for anyone visiting Alamogordo.

Tularosa basin

The view of the city was beautiful. The house itself was okay, mattress and bedding need an upgrade. The kitchen was fully equipped in case you needed to cook a meal. Overall, it was a nice stay.

Outstanding!

This property was as advertised and more. Spacious, very clean, nicely appointed in every room, great location with a nice view, etc. The kitchen even had a proper citrus squeezer, a first for me in a short term rental! We were extremely pleased.

Beautiful property!

This is one of the nicest VRBO properties I have ever stayed at ( and I have stayed at many!). The house is quite large and has several outdoor seating areas. The views are fantastic, including the sunsets and starry night sky’s. The king bed in the primary bedroom was very firm and comfy, and the shower had great water pressure. While only my husband and I stayed there, this house would have been perfect for 2-3 couples, or a family with a few kids! Would definitely stay here again if in the area.
