About the host
Hosted by Tina King
We are from Oklahoma City and enjoy Angel fire so much that it made sense to buy property here. We enjoy coming in each season as there are such diverse activities year round. We can’t be here full time so the decision to make this cabin available as a short term rental made sense. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. We have discovered our own heart for hospitality in our first year hosting and enjoy making the experience grand for all who stay!
Why they chose this property
Grinning Bear Lodge is unique in that we are situated near a wildlife highway and almost daily see deer, turkey or elk on the property. We have outfitted this home like the house we live in with all the extras you would have at your own place. This cabin in the woods can be your retreat too, we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
What makes this property unique
Peacefully situated up in the mountains on a quiet cul-de-sac, Grinning Bear is a perfect location when you want to get away to the mountains. It’s a short drive to town but the privacy in our neck of the woods is priceless.
