A True Small-Town B&B
Burro Street Boardinghouse is a true small-town B&B — not a hotel with breakfast tacked on. It’s a log-style house with three guest rooms, antique furniture, original art, a wood-burning stove, and an old-fashioned home-cooked breakfast served daily.
The living area has a cathedral ceiling and a wood-burning stove. A deck offers views toward downtown Cloudcroft. The property has been a Burro Avenue cornerstone for decades, operated by owner Linda Carter.
If you want a quiet, personal B&B stay within walking distance of downtown, this is one of the most charming options in Cloudcroft. If you want a front desk, resort amenities, or a standardized room experience, look elsewhere.

What Guests Say
What Works
Rustic log-cabin charm, home-cooked breakfast, king beds with private baths, and a walkable Burro Avenue location. A quiet, cozy, personal stay.
Common Cautions
Limited public detail means verifying specifics directly. Small scale means less flexibility. Booking is by reservation request, not instant. 2-night minimum.
The Pattern
A good fit if you want a true small B&B with breakfast, personality, and a walkable location. Not a place to book for amenities — a place to book for intimacy, rustic style, and a quieter kind of stay.
