Family Time

My husband and I and my son and his wife spent the week before Christmas at this property. It was extremely clean, very nicely decorated and had all the extra amenities one might want. Our Host was a very kind and accommodating man. My son is a disabled veteran (Iraq War), suffers from PTSD and was recently diagnosed with cancer. It has been a very tough year for us. Being able to get away and enjoy nature was a blessing to us. A heartfelt thank you to our Host.

Quaint Location, but needs work

The property is located out of the way, but it’s fairly easy to get to. The driveway and parking was tight for a truck though. After a day out on the town and golfing it was hard to comeback and relax. The furniture was rather hard and stiff, and the mattress we slept on was old and worn down. The best views are off the front porch, but there wasn’t many options to sit out and enjoy it with.

Great Property!

This cabin is special. You can tell a lot of thought went into the furniture, decor, and amenities. The location is perfect - in the mountains, but close to town.

Spring break

Great stay for myself and husband, daughter and her friend. Pool table was a hit with the teens. Beautiful area. Easy drive to town. Only downside is the third bedroom was not used and who ever would have gotten that room would definitely have the short end of the stick. As the room is very small and bed seemed a bit older. The other bedroom downstairs was used by my husband and myself and it sunk in the middle some we noticed. So maybe a new mattress needed. Otherwise a wonderful stay. Loved the layout of home. The master bedroom is right next to pool table so we ended up giving the kids the master.

We will continue to book this in the future

We've had multiple stays at this beautiful home. It is always immaculate and well stocked. It's easy to get to yet secluded and quiet. Just a short hop to the ski area or Ruidoso. Extremely comfortable, warm, and relaxing. We are looking forward to our next stay.

Winter Vacay

I booked this week as I have in years past with the plan to ski at Ski Apache. Unfortunately, the weather did not behave this week so we spent most of our time hanging out in the cabin. It was actually quite relaxing and nice to spend time together as a family. The cabin was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed to enjoy our time together. We did spend our last day at Winter Park. That place is pretty fun and a nice alternative to Ski Apache. We will return to stay at Lacy's Cabin in the future!

Wild Horses!

Great family cabin with a great hot tub! Cabin was clean and has a great floor plan. Kids stayed downstairs while we were up in the master. Pool table is just off the master but worked out great. Lots of fun. I only awarded 4 stars simply because the water pressure is so low in the house that the showers were much like portable camping showers that barely drool out water. No soap provided either so bring it along. One last negative was that the gas grill needs upgrading. It functioned but barely. The place is great other than those items and it was incredible to see the wild horses charge through the yard. Overall we really enjoyed it.

Winter Vacay

We had a great time at Lacy's Log cabin! The location is great with beautiful mountain views. The cabin was very clean and spacious. We were not able to ski at Ski Apache like we'd hoped due to weather. We did however spend time on our last day at Winter Park. Highly recommend, super fun place to go snow tubing.

Birthday weekend getaway

We drove up for the weekend to celebrate my husband's birthday. After a 12+ hour drive everyone was ready to relax & unwind. The cabin and location is absolutely beautifull. The views are gorgeous. We had the misfortune of having NO HOT WATER the whole weekend! We contacted the property manager and i was able to grt him on the phone. He explained to my husband where the furnace was located, but unfortunately the key had been placed at a different location by the cleaners,so we were unable to check. The following morning we were able to locate the key and my husband checked tthe water heater when we returned from skiing. Water heater was not working and was leaking water. So all weekend we had NO HOT WATER & had to take cold showers and heat up water. This was not an ideal situation, but we made due. We understand things happen & we don't want to give a bad review. Other than that problem we loved the cabin, location and all the deer that go by the property. This is not our 1st time in Alto/Ruidoso we usually come up for a week during the Christmas or New Year's holiday. It's absolutely beautiful.

Great shared space with friends

We really enjoyed staying in this cabin. The fireplace, with wood provided, was so enjoyable. The close proximity to Ruidoso was nice. We were able to stay upstairs with our own bathroom while the friends we met there stayed downstairs and had a bathroom to share with the 3rd bedroom. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool table upstairs. The cabin is a great space at a very reasonable rate.

Excellent Cabin

This log cabin is really charming. The location and excellent quality cabin we’re better than I expected. Went out with family and friends to hike in area. The location was great for hike trails and the hot tub was I think the best I’ve ever soaked in. The whole experience was positive. Highly recommend this property.

Amazing cabin!

I have to say it was the best cabin I’ve stayed in. I been to ruidoso multiple times and I have to say this cabin makes you feel at home, specially because Mr. Robinson was really helpful on all the questions we had. If you are planning to have a good trip with your family this is the one, definitely recommended!
