Escape to the pine-scented mountains of New Mexico and stay in Alto Chalet, a beautiful mountain home not far from downtown Ruidoso and the lake. The first things you’ll notice when you walk through the front door are the soaring windows bringing nature’s beauty indoors for all to enjoy. Vaulted ceilings with sturdy wood beams give the home an elegance and appeal rarely found in a mountain home. An added benefit is the multi-car garage you can use at Alto Chalet. If you come in winter, this garage will be a big plus for you and your guests. Your main floor is designed on an open concept that keeps everyone connected whether in the kitchen preparing snacks, dining, or sitting by a crackling fire in the fireplace. Your Alto Chalet living room features a flat-screen TV with cable and a DVD player. When you’re not out hiking in Lincoln National Forest, skiing at Ski Apache resort, or fishing, you may want to pop in a favorite movie and munch on some popcorn for an evening. There is also free Wi-Fi within Alto Chalet so you can post photos to social media, book golf tee times, and check out menus for area restaurants online. Your Alto Chalet deck is a great place to sit and relax in the mountain air. You also have a hot tub where you and your guests can soak until all stress leaves your body. There’s also a gas grill out on the deck where you can grill up some steaks or burgers for your hungry gang. Mountain air tends to make everyone ravenous, so come prepared for big appetites. Alto Chalet also has a devoted media room downstairs where you’ll find a TV with DVD player and comfortable couch and chairs for lounging. The large, open living space on the main floor provides plenty of room for playing games, chatting with friends, and relaxing on the plush couch, armchairs, and loveseat. Just beyond the living room is your kitchen, which is open to the main living space. You’ll find everything you need to whip up your favorite recipes in this kitchen. Just make a
