Grinning Bear Lodge | Peaceful Mountain Retreat w/Incredible Deck, Hot Tub & Game Loft

Welcome to Grinning Bear Lodge

A peaceful mountain retreat designed for rest, connection, and renewal in the heart of Angel Fire.

Wake up to crisp mountain air, sip coffee on the deck as the sun rises, and unwind by the fire after a day of skiing or hiking.

Whether you’re here for adventure or quiet rest, this home invites you to slow down and truly recharge.



Why Guests Love It
• Cozy, inviting spaces perfect for gathering
• Peaceful setting surrounded by nature
• Minutes from Angel Fire Resort
• Thoughtfully designed to feel like a true retreat

Escape to the peaceful beauty of Angel Fire at Grinning Bear Lodge, a private 4-bedroom, 3-bath mountain retreat tucked among the aspen trees and pines. Designed for both relaxation and adventure, this spacious home features a large deck with a private hot tub, a game loft with arcade games, foosball, PlayStation 4, cards, dominoes, board games, tinker toys & Lincoln Logs. You will love the 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 wood lined ceilings, a grand stone fireplace, and a wall of windows blur the line between indoors and nature. Thoughtful Southwestern lodge décor — leather sofa, native blankets, and wildlife touches — complete 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. We have a blender, toaster, KitchenAid mixer, Vitamix and crock pot. 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.

About the host

Hosted by Tina King

Host profile image
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.
