Blynken - Cloudcroft Cozy Cabin Near Downtown | Book like an insider

What guests think

Across reviews, Blynken - Cloudcroft Cozy Cabin Near Downtown earns praise for its walkable, central location and responsive hosts, with many guests finding it well equipped for short stays despite its simple, no-frills setup.

The cabin is very compact, and the bathroom and shower are extremely small, which can feel tight for taller guests or those with mobility concerns. Reports on utilities and comforts are mixed, with some noting hot water or heating issues while others had no trouble. Cleanliness is generally reported as good, though a few guests mentioned dirty floors, sticky spots, or musty odors. Expect a compact, no-frills base close to town and trails.

My husband and I loved our stay at the Blynken cabin. It is perfect and cozy for two- there is a heater and a fan which is perfect, the heater kept us warm. The bed is comfortable & so are the sheets, I always appreciate when the sheets that are provided do not feel like sandpaper. Also, some prior guests were saying in reviews that there was not hot water for the shower but there definitely is! So don’t let that deter you from booking. We also loved that our cabin was right next to shops and restaurants, very convenient! Highly recommend booking this cozy cabin.:)

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.

The property was mostly fine - it's basic. There was a problem with hot water in the shower for which the host was responsive. But it was not easy. The host was difficult to get ahold of because the guest has to get past a weird CAPTCHA verification puzzle to contact him. It took 2 days to get past those puzzles so we had 2 days of cold showers. I've seen other CAPTCHAs that did the verification job just fine, and made more sense. I don't know if that's VRBO or this host, but it was a problem. NOTE that once the puzzles were solved correctly the host was responsive and we got the shower fixed and the rest of the stay was fine.

The cabin is located close to downtown, easy access to shopping, food and hiking. Cabin was clean & tidy. I read the Poem of Wynken, Blynken, and Nod. It was delightful. Has off street parking. (and a grumpy neighbor) Hosts were very responsive. Thank you for letting us stay! (Need a few minor repairs.) .

The property is exactly as described in the photos and listing. There is both a smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector, even though the listing does not list them. No oven, just a stove top, but the amenities are as listed. I stayed here for a few nights as a place to crash in between White Sands and Carlsbad and it was perfect for that purpose. This is a very small, nice town, lots of folks walking around, and this cabin is within walking distance to some restaurants and coffee shops. The host is very responsive to all inquiries and provides helpful details for check in and check out. No one bothered me the entire time I was there, although there are many houses very close nearby. Street parking was easy. TV worked perfectly, all of the appliances are easy to use. The bathroom is very small so if you have any mobility issues this is maybe not the spot for you. But again, it has everything you need and the shower gets hot water relatively quickly. Very nice place, would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful time in this cabin. It was fully stocked which was a plus. All we had to bring was food. It was so cozy. They even had games and things for you to do. The Hostess was amazing she worked with us when we needed to rent it for one more night on short notice. We intend on renting it every year we draw for hunts. You could not find a better place to stay and the price was great. This cabin is a must stay if you ever get the chance. We have rented other cabins in the area and they don't compare by far too this one. I really love the story behind the cabins too. They have a cabin journal that all the quests sign and it was so much fun to be able to write our adventures in it also. You can't help but feel at home when you stay here and the hostess makes the stay even better! Thank you for such a great experience. We will be back every year one way or another!!!!

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.

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.
