Almost Heaven

Stay Longer, Pay Less – Limited Time Deal!
Book 3 nights and get 2 additional nights FREE on new stays through June 24, 2026. Turn a quick trip into a full mountain escape at Almost Heaven.

Perched high above Ruidoso, Almost Heaven offers some of the best panoramic mountain views in the area, overlooking Cree Meadows and stretching all the way to Sierra Blanca. You get the feeling of total privacy and elevation, while still being just a short drive to downtown shops, restaurants, and attractions.

This single-level home is designed for easy, comfortable living. The open living, dining, and kitchen area is perfect for relaxing together, whether you're watching TV, enjoying the fireplace, or just taking in the views through the large windows. Step outside to the spacious deck, where you’ll find outdoor seating, a gas grill, and front-row seats to unforgettable sunsets over the mountains.

The home features a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, and everything you need for a stress-free stay.

The master suite is a standout, with direct deck access, incredible views, a king bed, and a private bathroom with a jetted tub, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The additional bedrooms offer comfortable sleeping arrangements with their own TVs and bathrooms, making it ideal for families or small groups.

Located just minutes from downtown Ruidoso, Grindstone Lake, hiking trails, and local attractions, Almost Heaven gives you the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience.

Good to know:
Ruidoso is a true mountain town, roads can be steep and winding, and wildlife is common. Weather can change quickly, especially in winter, so 4WD or chains may be needed. That’s all part of the experience-slower pace, fresh air, and views you won’t forget.

  This was our third stay at this very nice home. The decision to stay here a third time, vs other very nice properties, is the view of Sierra Blanca from the deck and from inside the home. As the renters, my wife and I enjoyed the master suite which is fairly large. Our guests enjoyed the other two bedrooms which were very nice, one with its’ own small deck facing Sierra Blanca. We will certainly consider a fourth stay in the future.

  The home and location were everything we'd hope for. Just the right size for our family and each bedroom having their own bathrooms was perfect. Plenty of space to spread out and not feel crowded. Plenty of extras, all the amenities you would need and then some. This is our second home we have rented with Destiny Rentals, and they have not disappointed us. We will be back. Thank you
