Crown Point Condominiums

The Resort & Its Setting

Crown Point Condominiums is an independent condo-hotel-style timeshare resort at 220 Crown Dr, perched above the village of Ruidoso in Lincoln County, New Mexico. Guests consistently rate it well (4.4/5 from over 250 Google reviews), and the units are described as low-key but comfortable — free WiFi, an indoor pool, and a picnic area for warmer days. This is a resort built for people who want to settle in for a few days rather than check in for one night, with condo-style layouts that suit families and groups better than a standard hotel room would.

Ruidoso and the Surrounding Area

Ruidoso has built its reputation as a year-round mountain escape in southern New Mexico. Summer brings cool pine-scented air and hiking weather; winter turns the surrounding peaks into a snow-sports destination. A short drive of about two miles takes you down into Ruidoso Village, with its local galleries, restaurants and shops. Racing fans head to Ruidoso Downs Race Track, about five miles away, home of the All American Futurity. For outdoor time, Lincoln National Forest (roughly nine miles) offers hiking and scenic drives, while Ski Apache (around fifteen miles) draws skiers and snowboarders in winter. Further afield — about a sixty-mile drive — White Sands National Park offers a completely different landscape of gypsum dunes, worth the day trip if you're staying a week.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Crown Point Condominiums and are ready to move on, BidMyTimeshare.com lets you list it directly for other owners and buyers to find — no agents, no middlemen. You set your own asking price, pay a single one-time listing fee to get your week in front of buyers, and there's 0% commission taken on the sale itself. Interested buyers contact you straight through the platform, so you stay in control of negotiations and timing.

Crown Point Condominiums is an independent resort, which means resale transfers go through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a branded points programme. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, ask management directly for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee — these figures aren't published centrally and can change year to year, so get them in writing. It's also worth asking whether the resort or association holds any right of first refusal on resales, and how long a transfer typically takes to process once a sale is agreed, so both you and your buyer know what to expect.

For renters, the appeal is straightforward: a self-contained unit with a kitchen, within easy reach of Ruidoso's skiing, racing, hiking and village life, at a fraction of what a comparable week-long hotel stay would cost. If you're renting out your week rather than selling, mention the indoor pool and picnic area — small details, but the kind that reassure a family booking a mountain week.

Practical Notes for Owners and Buyers

A resale buyer at Crown Point Condominiums typically takes on the usage rights and the annual maintenance fee obligation going forward — always confirm with management exactly what transfers and what doesn't before closing. Since the resort's exchange affiliations aren't confirmed, don't assume external exchange network access is included with a resale week; buyers should check this directly with the resort if it matters to their travel plans.

Think about seasonality when timing a sale or rental listing. Ski season and summer weekends book up fastest, so listing ahead of those periods — rather than during them — tends to attract more serious enquiries.
