Mountain Grandeur

Aesthetically pleasing, well-maintained, beautiful art and phenomenal deck overlooking the mountains. Rooms are spacious and comfortable beds. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the living room was very comfortable. we spent most of our time on the deck overlooking the mountains. It is the best VRBO rental we have ever used.

Spring Thing 2024

Wonderful, as usual. Even cleaner than in past visits, as if that were possible. We get together for accountability sessions - and to tour the area - semiannually. There is just so much to see and do in this area. Skyline makes a wonderful home base.

Absolutely loved this place, it’s beautiful. Could use a heater on the back porch lol it was windy and chilly most days but we survived lol. Overall I would definitely recommend staying here, it’s quiet and the scenery was pretty. Would go stay again in warmer weather. Thank you, Tina

Another wonderful stay

Three older gents get together twice each year for an accountability session and to catch up on our lives. This has been our home base for several years. Quiet, well maintained with beautiful views and a convenient location. We have already made reservations for next Spring. Need I say more?

Great Albuquerque Getaway

Wonderful log cabin set in the hills just outside of Albuquerque. Wonderful view enhances sitting out on the porch. Little light pollution provides for excellent star gazing. The cabin was very clean and well stock with essential items. Great hiking and other outdoor adventures in the area. The host is very attentive to your needs, provides ample literature of things to do and is quick to respond to messages. A wonderful place that will enhance any vacation to the Albuquerque area.

FABULOUS

We've stayed in the cabin before and loved it. It did not disappoint this time. Can't tell you how nice it was to have enough bedrooms for our adult children. I feel like it goes without saying that it was clean. It was beyond just that. It was charming, comfortable, cozy (love the woodsy decor), and just all around WONDERFUL!!

Lodge in Cedar Crest

The communication with Brad was very timely & provided everything we needed to make our stay fabulous. The lodge was prepared for us as we checked very late. Brad anticipated needs & did not disappoint. The lodge is surrounded by woods & fantastic views. It was warm, comfortable for our whole family. Kitchen was stock to cook meals. Hot tub was wonderful in the snow! Close to restaurant & groceries & hiking. We will be back !

Wonderful place! Rooms were comfy and the decor was so fun - all log cabin. Full kitchen with a wonderful dining table. The outdoor deck was to die for. We enjoyed the hot tub too a couple of times. Place was close to a small town called Cedar Crest and not far from the Balloon Fiesta area. I would recommend this place to anyone and also stay here again.

Can't beat sitting on the beautiful deck with a glass of wine enjoying the mountainside view. (Although the hot tub gave it a run for the money.)
