Below are reviews of the city of Ruidoso Downs, NM from an actual visitor's perspective.
We come every few years for horse races but due to flooding we still came to support the city while trying to recoup from storms last couple of years. We visited other attractions while in the area and still had a nice vacation. Very nice little city with so much to see.
Hiking and restaurants, weather, Lincoln.
Favorite place in the world
The scenery is fantastic 😊
Nice weather and shops and boutiques and excellent dining.
Nice town.
The mountain views are breathtaking!
The town is charming, friendly and full of so many shops full of goodies!
Aside from the hotel, Chuy's auto service did a fantastic job with our oil change. Farley's restaurant was one of the best: great food, awesome service and a fun atmosphere.
Great food choices, nice people, beautiful weather.
The shopping and the skiing!
I just loved the snow, I enjoyed all the shopping we did. We got the whole Ruidoso effect I even took pictures with Billy the Kid (my hero)
Everything is great!
Love the climate, the beautiful scenery and there's lots of events all year long such as horse races, skiing, day drives, festivals, etc.
