This cozy cabin is nestled just off the main street. Furnished with log furniture built right here from the Lincoln National Forest. Bedding includes a full bed for two. The perfect place for downtown shopping/eating as well as experiencing the outdoors and taking the road less traveled! Be sure to read the book to understand the name of this cozy cabin which has been named Blynken since the early 1900s! This special place is close to everything.

I have stayed at cabins in Cloudcroft before and it was great. This cabin was very small and the floors was very dirty. My socks were black after walking around cabin. The cooking pots and pan were terrible and we were scared to cook a meal. The cabin had a musky smell and my wife and I had breathing problems and after one night had to leave and find other arrangements. I will not be back and would not recommend these cabins to anyone.
I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Blynken Cabin. It offers everything you need to make your stay comfortable. A block away from the town center. Ample parking along the street and in front of the cabin. Will most certainly consider staying here agin in the future.

Overall it was a nice stay. Place was clean and close to everything and i dont mind small tiny places, (which it is) but i think the price is a little high per night. That is my only complaint. Other than that, i do recommend it!
We stopped for the night and stayed in the Blynken cabin, and it was fantastic! The location was perfect, and the cabin itself was wonderful. Cloudcroft is such a charming little town—we'll definitely visit again and would happily stay here next time!
The property is exactly as described in the photos and listing. There is both a smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector, even though the listing does not list them. No oven, just a stove top, but the amenities are as listed.
I stayed here for a few nights as a place to crash in between White Sands and Carlsbad and it was perfect for that purpose. This is a very small, nice town, lots of folks walking around, and this cabin is within walking distance to some restaurants and coffee shops.
The host is very responsive to all inquiries and provides helpful details for check in and check out. No one bothered me the entire time I was there, although there are many houses very close nearby. Street parking was easy.
TV worked perfectly, all of the appliances are easy to use. The bathroom is very small so if you have any mobility issues this is maybe not the spot for you. But again, it has everything you need and the shower gets hot water relatively quickly.
Very nice place, would definitely stay again.
My husband and I loved our stay at the Blynken cabin. It is perfect and cozy for two- there is a heater and a fan which is perfect, the heater kept us warm. The bed is comfortable & so are the sheets, I always appreciate when the sheets that are provided do not feel like sandpaper. Also, some prior guests were saying in reviews that there was not hot water for the shower but there definitely is! So don’t let that deter you from booking. We also loved that our cabin was right next to shops and restaurants, very convenient! Highly recommend booking this cozy cabin.:)
Exactly what was needed! Visiting my parents who live about 7 miles from this location. I just need a place to sleep. This quiet, clean and conveniently located gem was perfect. matheperfect
The property was mostly fine - it's basic. There was a problem with hot water in the shower for which the host was responsive. But it was not easy. The host was difficult to get ahold of because the guest has to get past a weird CAPTCHA verification puzzle to contact him. It took 2 days to get past those puzzles so we had 2 days of cold showers. I've seen other CAPTCHAs that did the verification job just fine, and made more sense. I don't know if that's VRBO or this host, but it was a problem. NOTE that once the puzzles were solved correctly the host was responsive and we got the shower fixed and the rest of the stay was fine.
We really enjoyed staying in this cabin 2 different times on our vacation.Was very neat & peaceful & had everything we needed. Was nice to be in walking distance of everywhere in town.
The cabin is located close to downtown, easy access to shopping, food and hiking.
Cabin was clean & tidy. I read the Poem of Wynken, Blynken, and Nod. It was delightful.
Has off street parking. (and a grumpy neighbor)
Hosts were very responsive. Thank you for letting us stay!
(Need a few minor repairs.) .
