About this property

Experience Mountain Life Any Time Of The Year At On The Rocks Retreat

Our home provides enough beds to accommodate up to eight adults and three or four children with three separate living spaces. Two master bedrooms and baths on each end of the main living area offer privacy and space. Each master also has its own access to the deck which overlooks the valley below. Both masters have a full-sized crib available to accommodate a small child. Two more bedrooms and a separate sleeping area with 2 sets of bunk beds on the lower level have easy access to a bath and shower on that level and a comfortable living area with a TV. An open, spacious living area on the main level with a fireplace, TV and incredible views provides a comfortable gathering space. The deck off the living area offers spectacular views and warmer weather seating. A dining table that seats 6 is just off the well-equipped kitchen, and another table and chairs are available to expand the seating to 10. There is additional bench seating at the kitchen island plus a high chair. Also on the main level is a half bath, a full size pantry and a laundry room with a washer and dryer. The loft above the main living area has a full bath and includes a sleeper sofa, chairs and a TV. A two car garage gives guests the convenience of parking out of the weather, plus two separate driveway entrances/exits help when road conditions are not at their best. Note: Winter conditions in and around Angel Fire, including our driveway, pose driving risks and roads that often require a four wheel drive. You need to have four wheel or at least all wheel drive vehicles during the winter.

Fun family vacation

Wonderful vacation property. Fairly high up in the mountain so the view from the deck is very picturesque. Our family had a great visit to Angel Fire ski resort with some first-time skiers among our crew. Property was equipped with everything we needed and provided a comfortable stay. We enjoyed watching the family of mule deer who visited us daily in the late afternoon.

Awesome

We enjoyed staying at this home over the Christmas/New Year season. The process was easy and Cynthia was so great to work with. The home is laid out really well for families and the pictures do not give you a full grasp of how beautiful the home is.

Great House w/Great View

This house is great for large family. Main floor has two master bedrooms w/baths, baby beds, living area, kitchen, dining area, laundry room, 1/2 bath and large deck. We have a 17 mo old, so that was great. The loft has sofa and chairs, desk, Barbie house, (our four yr olds LOVED that) full bath, baby gates on stairwell. The basement has two bedrooms, living area, bunk bed area, full bath and puppet showcase. The living room has window wall from ceiling to floor to let in the beautiful scenery surrounding the house and two doors on either side of the windows leading out to the deck. NOTE: the threshold on doors opening to deck are metal and are VERY hot from sunshine, our toddler got blisters on both feet from stepping on it (just took seconds). Other than that everything was great, all you have to bring is your luggage and food/drinks, EVERYTHING else is provided. Enjoy!!! We did.

Very nice cabin.

Really enjoyed staying there. Has most anything you might need in the kitchen. Crib and highchair are handy. 4 wheel drive is needed in the winter time. I give it a 9!

Amazing!

Our stay was amazing! The house was very spacious and very clean. The kitchen had more gadgets and cookware than we could use during our stay. That made meal times extremely easy. The views were truly breathtaking and it made it hard for us to want to leave. The homeowners were very helpful and answered our questions quickly. It’s not goodbye, but instead- see you next time!

Convenient, Cozy, and Quiet

We loved our stay! We had two families stay together, and we had plenty of room. The owners were so nice and accommodating, especially with COVID19 cutting our trip short. It was an easy check in process, and we had everything we needed. We had easy access to the slopes which was awesome, and a gorgeous view from the porch! Highly recommend 4 wheel drive for the driveway and roads, but it's well worth it.

Second Time to Stay Here

Stayed here again with my brother's family. 4 adults, 4 kids and plenty of room for more if we had needed it. We love the location up the mountain and the fact that we have plenty of room for the kids to have space to play without interrupting adult conversation. Kitchen is well equipped for cooking. The owners are great with communication. I would imagine we will be staying here again!

Great house

We had four adults and four kids (age range of 6 to 13) and this house was great for us. It's a three level house which makes for plenty of space. The house was very clean and ready for us when we arrived. The loft area was perfect for the kids to hang out and play games or watch TV. It's very close to the ski resort and not too far from the town area in case you need to pick up something from the grocery store or grab a meal. I will say that four wheel drive would be recommended due to the location and the driveway (owner was very upfront about the driveway situation so we knew ahead of time) but we were also there when the weather was pretty crazy for March. The property manager who lives in the area was extremely helpful if we needed something and the owner always responded to any emails, both before and during our trip. We would definitely stay at this house again.

Perfect Getaway

The views from this home are amazing. We loved our stay and the entire family comfortably enjoyed the extra space and bedrooms. The kids entertained themselves "quietly" downstairs while the adults enjoyed a well stocked kitchen and made drinks by the fireplace. I highly recommend this property!

Nice And warm stay

We spent the week of Christmas in Angel Fire and this cabin was perfect! The house was very warm and cozy and had all the amenities that we wanted. The driveway was steep and a four wheel drive was definitely needed as stated on the advertisement

Had a great stay

We found this house to be very well equipped. We stayed for four days for a ski trip and there was absolutely nothing that we needed that the house didn't have. We especially liked the three separated living areas so that our families could have their own space at night. The homeowner had recommended that we not take any 2 wheel drive vehicles down the steep driveways to the house. We had 4 inches of snow the first night we were there and were very glad that we took her advice. The four-wheel-drive pick up came out but not easily. I'm sure that a 2 Wheel Drive vehicle of any kind would not have made it. The drive to the slopes was a bit dicey but the snow plows had it cleared quickly. Again just as promised by the homeowner. We loved the fireplace and there was plenty of firewood. There were snow shovels for digging out and sleds for the kids. This house was very clean when we arrived and everything was just as the owner had said it would be. We highly recommend this house.

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Property Manager

Host profile image
Numerous family mountain and ski trips to New Mexico, Colorado and Utah over the years instilled in us the desire to one day own a mountain retreat of our own. We found the Angel Fire community to fill all of our needs, including golfing, hiking, biking, sledding, skiing, fishing, rafting and much more.

Why they chose this property

Our home fulfilled all of our priorities in selecting a mountain house. It has enough bedrooms, bathrooms and living space to accommodate our ever expanding family, it has the spectacular views of the mountains and valley we wanted, it is situated in a friendly community, and it is only a ten hour drive from our primary residence.

What makes this property unique

Views, space, comfort, convenience.
