About this property
Grinning Bear Lodge: Hot Tub, Large Deck, Fire-Pit & Mountain Serenity.
🏡 Grinning Bear Lodge | Peaceful Mountain Retreat w/ Hot Tub, Fireplace & Game Loft
Escape to the peaceful beauty of Angel Fire at Grinning Bear Lodge, a private 4-bedroom, 3-bath mountain retreat tucked among the pines. Designed for both relaxation and adventure, this spacious home features a large deck with a private hot tub, cozy stone fireplace, and a game loft with foosball, PlayStation, and panoramic views of the forest. You’ll often see deer wandering by in this tranquil haven just 5 miles from Angel Fire Resort.
⸻
🌲 The Space
Step inside and breathe in serenity. Vaulted ceilings, a grand stone fireplace, and a wall of windows blur the line between indoors and nature. Thoughtful Southwestern lodge décor — leather, native blankets, and wildlife touches — completes the warm, rustic feel.
⸻
🍳 Kitchen & Dining
The fully equipped chef’s kitchen makes hosting easy with stainless steel appliances, ample counter space, and every utensil you’ll need for family meals. Enjoy the waffle bar, fresh-ground coffee (Keurig, drip, or French press), and gather around the 10-seat dining table or kitchen island for 5.
✅ Pots, pans, baking dishes, spices, and essentials all provided for your mountain feast.

Frequently asked questions
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 it makes sense to us to make this cabin available as a short term rental. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
Grinning Bear Lodge is unique in that we are situated near a wildlife highway and almost daily see deer 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.
