Beautiful Sierra Blanca View / Sleeps 8 / Large Deck & Hot Tub / Near Ski Apache

Ruidoso, NM experienced several devastating wildfires & subsequent flooding in June & July. We are so blessed and fortunate that Alpine Escape survived! Unfortunately the surrounding area has suffered significant destruction with many homes & over 30,000 acres destroyed.

We continue to pray for all of those that have been affected with loss of life and possessions.

Alpine Escape is up and running and we ask that you please come to support the wonderful town and resilient people of Ruidoso. The town is perfectly in tact and the shopping & restaurants are open and thriving.

As of now we only lack internet at Alpine Escape and should have that up and running by mid November. But it is important for our guests to know that the views are now charred hills & homes lost. But Alpine Escape continues to be a solemn solitude for many. We thank you for your support and for the support of Ruidoso as we all work to rebuild this amazing town!

Perhaps one of the best locations in all of Ruidoso! ALPINE ESCAPE is a private cabin secluded under the pines at 7300 feet elevation in a quiet area north of town. Built in 2004, and perfectly situated on an inviting mountainside, about a mile south of Ski Run Road.

One stay at this property is sure to bring you back. The combination of professionally made rustic furniture and mountain decor, added to the Sierra Blanca view, make this one of Ruidoso's best cabins. There is a 600 sq foot redwood deck that wraps around the cabin with 250 feet of covered area for grilling or sitting around the fire table with your favorite people & wine. You'll love the hot tub at night where you will soak in the amazing moon and stars and delight in the complete serenity.

The cabin is abundantly stocked with all of the necessities for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is appointed with lots of pots & pans, cooking utensils & daily dishes. There are two coffee makers, a Keurig and Mr. Coffee & the coffee & pods are provided.

Blow dryers are available in both bathrooms.

There is a full size washer & dryer and detergent is available if you need to wash a few clothes during your stay. Beach towels are provided for the hot tub and there are other towels available for wet pet paws or to dry your wet shoes on.

There is a hiking trail just off the deck where you can walk up to the private bench and soak in the view. You may see deer and occasionally an elk or wild turkey. In the Spring and Summer, the hummingbirds will entertain you as you sit on the deck and watch them come to the feeder 5-6 at a time!

There is a two car garage and room on the driveway for two additional cars.

The cabin is located just minutes from town and Ski Apache. The driveway is steep so please be sure to have snow chains and/or a 4 wheel drive vehicle in case of inclement weather. Ruidoso is such a fun town with boutiques, art galleries, wonderful restaurants & entertainment. Visit in September for the horse races or come in the winter to ski. Hike the national forest all year 'round or go horseback trail riding at one of the two local stables.

We welcome your small dogs to join you at the cabin. Maximum weight is 50 lbs. Two dogs are welcome with a $75 non-refundable pet fee per dog.

Please email with questions or call.

Note: Max Occupancy = 8.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Mountain views

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Alpine Escape cabin. It was very clean and had everything that we needed and then some other items that could have also come in handy if the need arose. The binder provided with instructions and things to do in the area was nicely done. And despite the burn scars on the mountain the views were still beautiful! The location is very quiet but well positioned so getting to local amenities is convenient. It’s a beautiful place and we highly recommend checking them out if you are staying in the area.

Great for families!

The property was just far enough out of town to make us feel like we had the mountain to ourselves. But it was still close enough to downtown to be under a 15 minute drive away. There was plenty of space for the six of us and the property manager was very responsive to any questions I had.

The house and area was beautiful! We saw Mule deer every morning and on our last night got to watch a herd of cow elk from the hot tub. Sad to see the burnt destruction all around but it was still a very nice view.

We had a great time for my mini birthday trip. I've rented this cabin many years ago. It's just as great as I remember. The views are different because of the summer fires.

Great Getaway from the City!

Our second trip to Ruidoso and we enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Much better option then a hotel, all the amenities of home with a great mountain tree lined view and variety of wildlife to see. Our favorite by far is the hummingbirds, provide entertainment and so energetic. First night we saw a male elk and several mule deer eating right below the deck. We are 'flat landers' (Houston) so the mountain one lane road and uphill drive were not our favorite but only due to the fact that it is not usual experience. Would definitely recommend staying here!
