Surrounded by spectacular scenery, Next to Heaven brings you one step closer to paradise! Combining luxury with southwest charm, this peaceful four-bedroom, two-bathroom mountain retreat is located right in the middle of an area that's loaded with opportunities for nature lovers. From hitting the slopes at nearby Ski Apache to fishing, hiking, biking, or horseback riding in Alto Lake and Recreation Area. Just a short drive away, the Inn of the Mountain Gods casino resort offers endless options for entertainment, while Ruidoso Downs Racetrack features horse racing during the summer months. Ruidoso Winter Park offers snow tubing in the winter months and zip-lining year-round. For the golf enthusiast, the Links at Sierra Blanca is just a ten-minute drive away. And less than half an hour away, Fort Stanton-Snowy River Cave National Conservation Area, the Hubbard Museum of the American West, the art galleries and artisan shops of Sudderth Drive, and Grindstone Lake and Trail System offer even more fun diversions.

And then there’s Next to Heaven itself! This cozy, comfortable mountain retreat sleeps ten altogether and features four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, an amazing deck, and lush forest and mountain views. Sumptuous seating along with a cable TV make the living area a delightful place to spend time with family or friends, whether you’re watching a movie on the DVD player after a day of skiing or hiking, surfing the web courtesy of the free Wi-Fi, or just having a chat by the fireplace while enjoying a cup of cocoa or a glass of wine at the wet bar. Nearby, Next to Heaven’s dining area is a great place to gather for a family meal or game of cards, while the stylish gourmet kitchen has everything you need to prepare as simple or lavish a meal as you could wish. The view from the huge, wraparound deck is truly mesmerizing, and a gas grill and lots of seating will encourage you to spend much of your time out there. Back inside, Next to Heaven’s primary bedroom is huge and lavishly decorated with a sumptuous king-size bed, TV, ceiling fan and spacious walk-in closet. As for the en suite bath, it’s like a private spa with a huge walk-in shower and separate jetting soaking tub.

Next to Haven’s other three bedrooms (one with a king-size bed, one with a queen-size bed, and one with a pair of twin-size bunk beds) are equally comfortable and make for a great gathering place for larger groups of friends and family. A second full bathroom ensures everyone can get ready for the fun-filled days faster, and all towels and bed linens are provided. Plus, a laundry area with washer and dryer negates the need to find a Laundromat (or over pack)!

Close to Alto Lake, Ski Apache, and everything the Sierra Blanca area has to offer, Next to Heaven is a dream location for a family or friends to enjoy the ski trip or summer vacation of a lifetime. So, what are you waiting for? Book your stay today!
