We had an amazing time in Cloudcroft and staying in this wonderful cabin. The sunset views from the patio were stunning, and our 3 kids loved exploring around outside. The house is cozy, spacious, and clean; perfect for our family of 5. There is no A/C but plenty of fans and leaving the windows open at night made it very comfortable. The cabin is walking distance to town and the historic Lodge hotel and golf course. I highly recommend this property!
Thank you Luke fornsharing your beautiful home with us. My family and I had a wondeful time at Black Bear cabin. It is clean, well stocked, and extremely convient. We were able to take a short walk to the main areas of town.
However,the main draw was the amazing sunset views from the huge deck.
We look forward to returning sometime soon.
Nice cabin. Three levels. Close to town. Very large back deck with great sunset views. The owner immediately responds to any questions. We saw elk several mornings grazing in the side yard. The only con is the traffic noise that can be heard from the back deck since it overlooks a two lane highway.
Black Bear Cabin is just as advertised. It's conveniently located near Cloudcroft, yet very peaceful. We enjoyed the spacious common area and deck. One recommendation...put a couple of umbrellas out near the large table on the deck. It's really exposed and can get hot in the afternoon sun. Overall we highly recommend the place!
We enjoy the hiking trails in Cloudcroft and this cabin was a good combo of being close to the town area and trail heads, but what really drew us was the view from the deck. We spent most of our cabin time out there, especially at sunset.
We love the property. It has the best view from the deck. We really enjoyed getting away from the West Texas heat. The place was clean, however there was a musty smell on the lower level. There were no batteries in some of the remotes and we couldn't find the remote for the T.V. in the main bedroom. We had a really good time and would stay again.
Not only was the house well suited to our family, but also the mountain view, snow play in the yard, and wildlife awesome.
Several times we even walked to the town square through the snow covered streets which reminded us of visiting Austria.
It was very evident that the hosts take care in making guests stay great, and we look forward to returning.
The house was absolutely perfect for my familyâs Thanksgiving break! We were there for a whole week and made a huge thanksgiving meal! House has everything you need. Views were breathtaking. Wood burning stove warms the house great. We will definitely be booking again.
The cabin really was in one of the best locations in the village. The view canât be beat. We walked to town every day via the path in the back of the cabin. There is also a driveway, whereas most other cabins on the street do not have that luxury.
The only thing Iâd recommend is that the hosts replace some of the fans. There are a few that just donât blow wellâŠso the cabin rooms did get very warm. The loft room was always too hot to use. Iâm sure this is a rare occurrence as itâs not typically over 80 degrees (like it was this week).
Iâd love to come back in the colder months, because I bet the temp is awesome. We would love to visit Cloudcroft again, and would book this cabin in a heartbeat. Thank you!
Our stay at Black Bear Cabin in Cloudcroft was just what the doctor ordered after 8 days of cross country travel (moving). The sunset views each evening were stunning and the location was ideal for walking to golf or grab sweet treats in Cloudcroft.
This was a lovely property for our family of four, but could have easily added another couple. Lots of space and comfortable beds. The location is perfect and close to town, but also far enough away that you feel secluded. Bring a few extra cooking supplies, if youâre planning on mostly cooking meals yourself and be prepared to do your dishes or bring some paper goods. All rooms have little electric wall heaters that work well. Part of the house gets pretty cold in the winter mornings, but the wood burning stove is lovely, if you can get it going. Consider bringing your own kindling/paper, if you plan to. Lots of extra firewood provided though. No doubt, we will enjoy checking it out in the summer as well!
We stayed 3 nights with one toddler and 4 adults. The shared space in this cabin is wonderful - big dining table and nice kitchen for family meals. Nice area to hang out and some games keeping us entertained. The master is also wonderful and the upstairs single worked well for my mom, would be great for a tween or teen also. The downstairs room was a little cramped for the two adults and one kiddo but I think it would work great for just kids especially or just a couple. The hot water had a little trouble keeping up with full baths for a toddler but worked fine for staggered showers. It was rainy all weekend and we were so happy to have this lovely spot that was warm and comfy in between our short excursions!
This is a nice property with beautiful views from the deck and through the windows. Easy to get to and close to shops and restaurants. We enjoyed our stay!
This is a great, very clean cabin for a family! The open area is very spacious for everyone to gather. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to prepare a meal! The very best part of this cabin is the deck! The views are amazing and the afternoon sun hits it perfectly! This cabin exceeded all our expectations!
Wonderful experience. Clean, comfy cabin. Just right for my family. Awesome views. Spent most of time on the deck. Easy to find, close to town. Took the short drive to Alamagorda. White Sands and Air and Space museum. Discription of cabin online was spot on! Will book again, hopefully in the fall.
My family had a great experience at the cabin. I have 3 little ones which loved all the stairs and playing on the side lot. My older sister and nephew enjoyed the fire place and deck. Over all the cabin was great. The location and view is amazing . We could even see the cabin from one of the trails. I totally recommend the cabin and will definitely try visit again.
My family of 4 and I were fortunate enough to spend two wonderful nights at this awesome little cabin. Although we were busy with with prior arrangements and didnât get to spend too much time during the days there, our evenings were amazing.
Communication with the owners was top notch prior to check-in and there was no need afterward. The check-in process couldnât have been easier.
We will definitely be booking again in the near future, when we can spend more time enjoying the cabin as a whole.
We thank the owners for the opportunity to stay at such an awesome place!

All you need in a home is here. Location is perfect. View is fantastic. We were able to cook our dishes with ease. The beds are comfy. Everything is clean. I'd recommend this place to friends and family.
We stayed the week before Christmas 2021 and had an amazing time. Our 12 year-old daughter loved the upstairs loft and our teenage son really enjoyed the downstairs bedroom. My wife and I loved the comfortable king-sized bed in the master bedroom. We found everything we needed to cook our meals and the wood burning fireplace was a big plus on those cold nights. The cabin felt secluded with great open views of the canyon out the back window and off the deck.
The cabin was close enough to town that we made several trips to the coffee shops and bakery. We also took a side trip to Bluff Springs to see a beautiful waterfall that was surrounded by icicles and snow.
This was a perfect place to relax and spend time together as a family. We are definitely planning to return in the future.
We loved our family Christmas in Black Bear cabin! Our son is stationed at Holloman, so this was a great time together! Beautiful views, cozy & clean. We love Cloudcroft and all the fun outings in and around this cute town. Canât wait to be back, thank you for opening your home with us.
