Review Score:   8
Summary: Really liked your property. The cabin was very nice. The wife, I, and our pups thoroughly enjoyed it. We loved your offerings and loved Ruidoso in general. Two improvements that I see kept it from being an excellent stay. One the access to the carport (which looked amazing...) was so narrow and had such a severe drop off made access impossible for my truck. So, I ended parking beside the cabin which was fine, but we encountered a nasty wind, rain, and hail storm while we were there and could have damaged my truck. (Fortunately, it didn't sustain any damage).Secondly the steps down from the driveway to the level the cabin is on are not level. On the initial way down from the driveway to the cabin, my wife slipped and fell down on the wooden steps that were crooked. Fortunately, she her pride was the only injury. But, this could be a serious hazard to people unaccustomed to that hazard.One more note. On the morning of our third (Wednesday) day of our stay, our fire alarm began to give off intermittent low battery beeps. I promptly notified your representative, but as of Friday morning when we departed, the intermittent beeping. There were major storms in Ruidoso on Monday and Tuesday and I am sure that the maintenance people were swamped with problems, but if you had notified me that it was going to be that long of a delay in getting to this battery change out, I would have done it myself. (Although I did not have a ladder to accomplish this.) We will come back to Ruidoso
