Great location for a weekend getaway with partner and dogs. Plenty of space, very clean, and good location to visit surrounding area. Pups enjoyed the fenced in backyard and large deck.
Property was plenty large enough for 5 adults to visit without tripping over each others privacy. Very quiet neighborhood away from the town, but close enough to be a very short ride to the action. Grocery store very close too!
We really enjoyed our at Slice of Heaven. The property is clean and well maintained and in a quiet neighborhood. The doggie for was a big plus and it allowed our dogs to go outside as needed, just like at home. Overall, the stay was excellent and we recommend Slice of Heaven to anyone visiting the Ruidoso area.
We had an amazing time! The cabin was clean, comfortable, and close to everything we needed! The only advice I would have woulf be instructions on how to operate the swamp cooler. Once we got it going, it kept the entire cabin very cool!

Cute and cozy
We had a great stay. Minor issues but nothing that was a deal breaker. The master bedroom bed was so comfortable! House was huge and had lots of room for the 8 of us. Mother in law suite is cute! The bed was not comfortable but we were able to fix that easily. Would definitely recommend this cabin
To say the stay here was amazing would be an understatement. It felt like I was really staying at my own house, The place is so accommodating. While being so big, so cozy and it has everything you might need in your own home. The main home is beautiful as well. As the mother in law home right next to it. There is a big beautiful yard for the dogs. As well as a nice patio and a nice deck. My family was very happy with this place and we'll be staying again in the furture for sure.
Everything was perfect for our extended family and my mother in law who was able to get her quiet time in her own space. The vintage trailer with the cutest living space was perfect for her. The bedrooms were very roomy and had more than enough space for the 9 of us. My favorite part of all was the doggy door! What a fantastic surprise for my boys since they are used to one at home. It was perfect and definitely will stay here again!

Lovely property, but watch those steps!
Property was lovely, clean, and met all of our needs. Nature was right in our backyard too as we had a buck visit on the porch early one morning. The porch outside was lovely as well, however there were a few steps that were spaced about 5-6 feet apart (as the porch ran the length of the front of the house). Half of us tripped and fell because they were hard to see as the were all painted the same color. Some reflective tape or a yellow safety painted line to make those step downs stand out would have been helpful and could have prevented all those trips and falls.
Everything was great except the bed in the mother in law apt really needs a better mattress and some of the light bulbs are burned out. Other wise all was great
Very nice property. House was decorated beautifully and the mother-in-law suite was super cool! Nicely stocked and lots of hummingbirds. :) Many laughs and great memories made. Would definitley recommend! You won't be disappointed!
This cabin had plenty of room for our group of 6. The mother-in-law cabin was a nice addition. Kitchen was big enough to cook for our group. The shuffle board table was fun. Fenced in yard for our dog, but it was a little too cold for our 7 pound chihuahua to be outside much. Always love our visits to Ruidoso!
