Whispering Pines Cabin with Hot Tub in Ruidoso

Nestled into the mountainside Whispering Pines Cabin is a perfect spot for a weekend or extended get-away. Our intimate 500 square foot cabin has the comforts of a home on a smaller scale. The separate bedroom with a queen bed and living room twin sofa-sleeper make it a cozy retreat for up to three guests (note, there is no door on the bedroom).

Our miniature kitchen is fully loaded – a gas stove, microwave and fridge make it easy to shop and cook meals in. Step outside and throw some meat on the grill and enjoy the mountain air while eating on the deck.

Whether you want to ease into the day or wind down at the end of the night, the hot tub is a great place to relax and enjoy the mountains around you. You are likely to see wildlife while you take in the views – elk, deer and even wild horses have visited our cabin. The stars light up the sky and full-moon nights are spectacular.

When you are ready to get out and about, you are less than five miles from midtown Ruidoso. There are tons of local shops and restaurants you can visit as you stroll through town.

If you’d like a little more adventure, try your luck at Ruidoso Downs Racetrack and Casino. If you prefer an adrenaline rush, you can’t miss the 8,900 ft. zip line at Ski Apache! It is one of the longest in the world and has parallel cables so you and your guest can conquer it at the same time. Or rent an ATV in midtown and follow the GPS trail on a 4-hour tour that takes you up into the mountains and down into canyons with beautiful rock formations. Of course you can’t miss Ski Apache in the winter with a stunning 12,000 ft. elevation and 1,900 ft. vertical drop. From beginner to expert, there are trails for everyone on 750 skiable acres. If you prefer to experience the great outdoors at a slower mph, you can golf, fish, hike, mountain bike, geocache, or play disc golf.

Love to day trip? Visit the iris garden at Hondo Iris Farm during the summer months or pan for gold at Fox Cave. Just past Alamogordo is White Sands Monument – 275 square miles of gypsum sand dunes that look like sugar spilled in the middle of the desert. It’s an amazing site to see. On the way back, stop at PistachioLand where you can shop and take a picture next to a giant pistachio! You can visit Roswell and see all of the famed UFO exhibits in town and then head to Carlsbad. Although the caverns are a 2.5 hour trip from Ruidoso, they are a stunning natural wonder that shouldn’t be missed.
You can plan your trip around an event or festival – Ruidoso has them all year! Check out the show schedule at the Spencer Theatre for the Performing Arts. If you love Broadway shows or dance and musical performances, they have events every 11 days during the summer and winter show season.

We can’t wait to have you visit Ruidoso and stay at Whispering Pines!
