Cabin review
It was a great place to relax. The only thing missing was a working gas grill, which was an inconvenience as we had to change our meal plans. However, I would definitely consider staying again and recommend it to family and friends.

Nice place
Over place is nice, title says it can sleep 8 people, we are a family of six and we could just fit. The images on the listing are not accurate, they show fire place could be used, but both are blocked with a sign not to use. That was one of the main reasons I selected this place. Not a bad place at all, I would recommend, just a little misleading on the title and photos.

Good location but not impressed-Winter time!
Booked a month before arrival, after 9 hour road trip we arrived around 8pm. I assigned the bedrooms of who was going to sleep where. When I pulled the comforter down in all the beds they were not clean. The bunk beds bed sheets were dirty, there was crumbs, hairs, grass clippings. The pillow cases had some hairs . The other single bed room had a white folded blanket that was filthy and stained. The master bedroom bed looked cleaner but one of the blankets a thin blue one had white paint marks on it. We immediately called and spoke to someone whose name is on a piece of paper on the refrigerator. We explained our frustration with the dirty blankets. She said no one had complained before and that cleaning crew came out to clean it earlier. She said they couldn’t come out until maybe the next day either at 8am or 4 pm. We then asked to speak to the owner she gave us the number. We felt we got the run around because the 2 numbers given did not work. Finally spoke to owner via VRBO and said same thing. I needed up washing that night. Also, the floors were dirty. We had problems setting up the T.V. We lost signal a lot, we tried to fix it for them too. The towels and wash clothes were neatly folded but they are so old and hard. We went to buy or own. The house needs to be winterized, heat escapes via all windows. Location was great, creek in back. I highly recommend new pillows and towels.

Winter vacations
We went on winter holidays to Ruidiso to spend my birthday and my daughter's, her 15th birthday. Everything was great, I was equipped with things I didn't use because the cabin had everything we needed. Very quiet neighborhood, cleanliness was good, it was lovely to enjoy the landscape and the river. Very happy to interact with the deer, being able to feed them and touch them. Very satisfied and would return to this cabin. Thank you.

We Love the “River Run” Rustic Charm
We visit Ruidoso every fall and River Run is where we stay! It’s a welcoming, charming, no-frills woodsy cabin located steps away from the river . The elk and deer visit daily. It’s quiet, it’s comfortable, it’s equipped with everything we need. The hosts are wonderful and their property manager & team are quick to take care of things, when they arise.

Outdoor camping
Definitely not for anyone with walking disabilities. Lots of steep steps and unlevel ground. Wife has Arachnophobia, there is a lot of spiders and earwigs throughout the home. Could not use the shower do to SLOW DRAIN filling up the pan, plus shower head attachment sprays out onto floor. A door to one bedroom was inoperable but could walk through other room to get out. ONLY ONE TV located in living room which we understand. But be nice in master bedroom. The issues were minor, we chose not to bother owner with it as it was a very busy week in Ruidoso. Spent most of our time out on the town. This place could be really nice just needs attention.

This was our second time in staying at this quaint cabin. The Rioduso river that runs along the property adds to the tranquil atmosphere of this cozy cabin nestled in the upper canyon community. We are looking forward to visiting again in the future.

Spring trip May 5
Cabin is perfect for a family get away, the large patio with tables and chairs was a highlight, we all enjoyed sitting outside right by the river. Lots of elk came through the yard. The inside has enough space for everyone, 2 showers and restrooms and a huge kitchen table. It was everything we wanted from a cabin in the woods. Thanks again, we can’t wait to come back!

Nice little cabin for the price
The cabin was older yet clean. As with any property, maintaining it is essential. We noticed some items & have informed the owners. Beds were a bit firm. The river is close, you can hear it running , very esthetic. Nice, quiet neighborhood ~ easy to & from town.
