Yard was overgrown. Driveway had pot holes. Wasp nest on porch. Daughter got stung. No cable tv. I could go on and on. Property could be very nice. It needs some attention.

Comfortable and relaxing :)
The pictures online look more modern and well kept than it actually was. But it was fine...we were just a little surprised. The actual location was further into the woods than we anticipated. If it had been snowy, we may have been in trouble. as I don't recall any encouragement to have chains or a vehicle that could handle it. One of the large beds upstairs was interesting. 1/2 of it was totally sunken in and the other 1/2 was normal. Good thing we had not planned for a couple to stay in that bed or we would have had to figure something else out. The hot water situation was also challenging as we had booked for *9* people who would need to be showering as we were there for a wedding. The bottom shower got very hot, but as you used the shower on the main floor, the hot water ran out very quickly. Not sure how that could be remedied. It would've been kind of nice if there had been some simple type cards or games to enjoy during down times.(I realize we could've brought our own) We've stayed in others where there were some games and it was nice. One very neat thing, is that there was a collapsible wagon there that we could load vehicle items to bring in. The driveway is very steep and something that would be helpful is if more land was cleared behind and around the back. As you drive up to the top, instead of having to back out, you could just continue on around the property to exit on the other side of the cabin. Overall, it was very nice and accommodating.

Quiet mountain vacation
The property is in a quiet neighborhood. We saw wild horses and deer roam around, which was amazing! All the essentials were present in the rental home. The beds were comfortable. Plenty of room for a family of 5.The door lock with key pad was a bit tricky to open. The couch and cushions need a proper cleaning, so do the spiral stairs. All in all, we enjoyed our vacation at the Blue Mountain Hideaway very much.

Nice family vacation
We love our stay at the Blue Mountain cabin, the area was surrounded by nature and we saw a lot of deer nearby. This cabin is very close to the Winter park for tubing which was very fun (5 minutes) and near the road to the Apache ski resort (30 minutes). The cabin was well equipped and it had a nice homey feeling.

Quite cabin with great views
This was a great cabin for our week away. It was one of the best cabins we have stayed at in our 20+ years of coming to Ruidoso. The view was beautiful and we enjoyed how quite the neighborhood was and away from most traffic/noise. The cabin is pet friendly and the top deck has a gate which made it nice for our dogs. The only (slight) negative was the spiral stairway to the upper bedroom. Glad all the younger ones stayed upstairs and had to use the stairs! Would definitely stay here on our next family vacation!!

Great Place to Get Away!
The cabin was wonderful! Even in the off season, there was plenty to do and lots of beautiful scenery. It was clean and comfortable. We were far enough out to feel like we were in an adventure but also close enough to Ruidoso that it was convenient to go do things. We will definitely return to Hummingbird cabins the next time we are in the area
