Angel Fire, New Mexico
Beautiful 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom two-story cabin with bonus space for kids downstairs and a loft. Enjoy gorgeous sunsets from two levels of the deck. Massive kitchen table perfect for game night or big meals. Two wood burning stoves to complete your mountain retreat experience. New Deck and Hot tub added and functional, adding pictures soon! 4WD/AWD strongly recommended as roads are steep and slippery.
To get to the slopes from our house there are 3 options:
1) There's a trail that leads from behind the house to the run called "heading home." This is about 200 yards. You will have to carry skis about 30 feet uphill to the start of the trail and then it is downhill. Due to downed trees, the path back right now leads to the col-de-sac instead of the house. You can park in the col-de-sac and drive back up the driveway or walk your skis up.
2.) You are right around the corner from the El Camino drop off area if that is more your speed. It is a 8 min drive. (Park and ski out).
3.) Park at the base of the mountain and take the shuttle to slopes (15-20 min drive). Shuttle seems to come about every 5 minutes.
We enjoyed our stay at Megan and Tyler's mountain home, the views were amazing. It had everything we needed for our three generations, including a Christmas tree for my grandchildren, which was very important as we were there for Christmas. Megan was very responsive to any needs or questions we had. There was heavy snowfall during our stay, so chains were needed to get up the mountain and to the house. Of course, the snowfall made the skiing perfect for our beginners and others. I highly recommend it to large families. There was also a hot tub for our ski group to enjoy and needed for sore muscles.
Our family had a wonderful time this week in Angel Fire. The property was very cozy and the view cannot be beat. One thing we didn't fully appreciate was the elevation. It's very high, which affords the beautiful views. Just be prepared and realize that you may have more difficulty with the elevation than you do even when out skiing. Trying to unpack, carry things up the stairs, etc. at this elevation can be exhausting. The home could use some TLC, including a bigger or newer water heater (we ran out of hot water a few times and we only had 4 people in our party), and the kitchen could use some new pots and pans. These minor inconveniences did not overshadow our lovely stay. It is not easy to find a dog-friendly property. We made memories here that we will cherish forever. The host was very responsive, including with regard to a few days of very heavy snow and when the hot-tub needed cleaning.
The house itself was great, overall had a good stay and making a lot of memories. BUT I rented this place because of it being a ski in ski out, but it took our group over an hour to walk (in ski boots & carrying our skis) through knee high snow to the slopes. It definitely was not a ski in ski out, we ended up driving everyday. A few mishaps were the toilet overflowing, no useable coffee pot, no electric in the garage, and the garage frig not being cold enough to put anything inside.
We celebrated my wife birthday with all our kiddos and grandkids it was amazing vacation love the hot tub and the views are breathtaking
This place was great for a big group. Plenty of cooking supplies and a beautiful location. This house is a bit of a haul up the road so be prepared for that and definitely have 4wd/awd. Would stay here again! Thanks Megan!
Wonderful property with excellent location. Will definitely stay here next trip. Thank you for offering your property.
Perfect for large group vacation. Everything as advertised
The views from this cabin were absolutely gorgeous! I could have sat on the deck all day just looking at the mountains & the valley below. As great as the views were during the day, nothing could beat the view of the stars each night while sitting in the hot tub!! The inside of the cabin is just as described. Would be a great place for a huge group. The owner was very easy to communicate with & was extremely accommodating.
Wonderful vacation and family time. House was great - got to see lots of wildlife and great hiking. Highly recommend it.
Our stay in Angel Fire was wonderful! We met a group of friends (10 of us plus dogs) and it was the perfect house and location. The views are amazing, the house had everything we needed, and Megan was super responsive and helpful. We hiked and biked right from the house, and enjoyed amazing meals together at the massive dining table. We can’t wait to visit again!
This was our first time renting anything other than a hotel room or a car and we had a wonderful experience. Megan was so quick to respond to any questions we had. The house itself was very comfortable for our group of 16. Everything was clean and tidy and each family had their own room. The rooms were all big enough to set up a pack and play for the smaller children. As this was our first time renting a cabin we weren't sure of what to bring and we definitely over packed. Megan has provided everything you could possibly need to have a wonderful weekend with your family. She has a cabinet full of family games that helped keep us entertained when it was raining. We all fell in love with her giant kitchen table! My parents were so happy to be able to enjoy all their meals with their children and grandchildren around the beautiful table. We all knew the hot tub was available when we rented the house but none of us really planned on using it. Once we took the top off of it someone was always in it! We all loved it so much that now we are planning on installing one at my parents house! The only thing we would recommend would be a propane fire pit. Here in NM there is often fire restrictions in place so normal campfires are not allowed, however propane fire pits are allowed because they do not throw off embers. We think that would have been a great addition to the top deck so we could still make smores outside. We absolutely loved our stay and look forward to coming back.
10 out of 10! The house has everything you need and felt like you were home!
