The place was nice and clean comfortable bed. Only thing i will say and this isnt a negative on the cabin itself but it is small so if you are big or tall. You mught not fit in the bathroom too easily.
Enjoyed our nightlong stay in the clouds. Cabin was very cozy, but was well appointed. Great price considering it is within walking distance to everything in town. Would stay again.
The Blynken cabin was just perfect for us to rest up after a full day of exploring the Cloudcroft village and surrounding mountains adventures. We will definitely plan to come back to the Blynken.
It was a great stopover for us on our journey home. Its a small place but had what we needed for our stay. The cabin was clean Clean and the area is quiet. Right near the main street with all the shops and restaurants.
This cabin is cute, clean, and the perfect distance between Guadeloupe Mountains NP and White Sands NP. It was cozy and quiet. We hiked on the Rails to Trails complex just outside of town and highly recommend that.

It was okay.
My husband and I stayed for one night. When we arrived it was raining. The cabin was smaller than what we thought it would be. We found a sticky spot on the floor that was there when we arrived which made us wonder how clean the rest of the cabin was. The bathroom was incredibly tiny. We would not stay at this place again.
Cabin fit description on VRBO and was well-suited for my needs. The owner was super communicative and response, and receptive to my feedback on the spot.
The only struggle I experienced was with the neighborhood, and the owner did absolutely everything they could but it was ultimately out of their control.
Overall the rental is great. I think especially as a quick summer escape or winter basecamp, this would be perfect for you. On top of that the owner is highly attentive and communicative.
The property was as advertised and is okay for a one night stay. I would be hard pressed to spend much more than one night as it is extremely small, with limited amenities.
The cabin was perfect for our needs. Walking distance to almost everything (including the OSHA and Trestle Trails) as well as the famed Burro Street! Truly enjoyed our visit in Cloudcroft and can’t wait to return!
The little cabin was cozy and within walking distance to all shopping. Had a wonderful experience. Questions about the property were answered promptly. Highly recommended.
I have stayed at cabins in Cloudcroft before and it was great. This cabin was very small and the floors was very dirty. My socks were black after walking around cabin. The cooking pots and pan were terrible and we were scared to cook a meal. The cabin had a musky smell and my wife and I had breathing problems and after one night had to leave and find other arrangements. I will not be back and would not recommend these cabins to anyone.
I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Blynken Cabin. It offers everything you need to make your stay comfortable. A block away from the town center. Ample parking along the street and in front of the cabin. Will most certainly consider staying here agin in the future.
Heater did not warm the cabin and we were extremely cold all night
Most of all, everything was great except for the heater of the cabin, not sufficiently warming the cabin and we were extremely cold all night

Overall it was a nice stay. Place was clean and close to everything and i dont mind small tiny places, (which it is) but i think the price is a little high per night. That is my only complaint. Other than that, i do recommend it!
