Experience a charming mountain retreat in this historic 1920s-built cabin nestled in the Upper Canyon of Ruidoso. Built just 40 years after Billy the Kid roamed the area, this classic rustic cabin boasts timeless bark siding and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Fully renovated inside to 95%, it combines vintage charm with modern comforts-new ceilings, flooring, textured walls, plush mattresses and pillows, and a completely updated kitchen with new countertops, cabinets, and appliances including a gas range (no dishwasher, but a large sink is available).
Relax with Bluetooth-equipped ceiling lamps that fill the space with your favorite tunes, and stay connected with high-speed Starlink internet. The living room features a warm electric fireplace mantle beneath a 65" flat-screen TV with Roku, perfect for streaming your favorites. The main bedroom offers a queen-sized bed and a wall-mounted TV, while the second bedroom has a double bed-ideal for a small family or group of friends. Note that the second bedroom is a bit snug.
This cozy yet functional cabin is perfect for a couple with 1-2 kids or 3-4 adults seeking a mountain escape. It includes in-suite laundry, but please be aware these are MINIATURE UNITS intended for only a few articles of clothing at a time.
Enjoy the open-air covered deck with brand-new furniture and a propane BBQ-propane included! Please note some stairs are needed to access the front door. Flood-safe during summer monsoons, the cabin is surrounded by ponderosa pines within the Lincoln National Forest, yet only a 3-4 minute drive to midtown Ruidoso and close to the Rio Ruidoso for outdoor activities.
