Beary Happy Place - Log Cabin + Covered Deck + Canyon Views

Welcome to A Beary Happy Place, an authentic log cabin nestled among towering pines in Ruidoso`s scenic Upper Canyon.

Great Place!

Our family (3 young children and 2 adults) loved our stay at this cabin. The property was perfect, very clean, and great for our size family. The deck and views were great and we were close to everything in town. The communication with the hosts was also very good and made our stay very easy. We would absolutely stay here again.

I grew up in Colorado, but have lived in Austin,TX for the last 18 years. When I dreamt of showing my daughters (7 and 10) a beautiful cabin experience, THIS WAS IT!! The place is well adorned with everything you could need, very clean and thoughtful. The host was great and accessible. We can’t wait to come back!

Lovely Cabin

We had a great stay at the cabin. Very relaxing. The cabin was clean and tidy with everything we needed, in the kitchen, to enjoy our dinners out on the porch. The hummingbirds were a pleasant surprise! Wild horses, deer, wild turkeys and antelope were frequent visitors. We would definitely rent this cabin again!
