Fabulous Cabin

The Lazy Dog Lodge was everything I'd hoped it would be for our family vacation with our kids and grands. The home is beautiful, cozy and well stocked anything you'd possibly need to prepare a meal (other than the actual food). We loved that there was an app that kept all needed info about the home at our finger tips. The home and surrounding area was very clean and well organized. The little ones loved all of the movies, toys, and games that were available to them downstairs. There was more than enough space for our party of 8 to be comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the fire pit for afternoon coffee. The hosts were always available to answer my questions and were very kind. This place has such a great vibe and I'd love to stay here again sometime. Lazy Dog Lodge is a 10 out of 10 in my book!

Large family ski trip

THE PICTURES DO NOT DO THIS PLACE JUSTICE. This home is large, beautiful and has just about everything you could possibly need. We had 2 familles (all 12 were over 20yrs old) and never felt crowded. Large table was perfect for game night. The blackstone for perfect for grilling for our large group. This house was easy to get to and had no trouble with snow and ice. Rental car was AWD but the other car was front wheel and did just fine. Russell was easy to contact when needed but honestly, everything was pretty easy per his instructions. The only thing that was slightly a pain was the trash situation. With 12 adults we acquired a lot of trash and you have to take it in town to a recycling area. I would absolutely stay here again. The house has been renovated and some of the pictures don't reflect that. GORGEOUS HOME!

Great Stay in Angel Fire

We had a great stay at the Lazy Dog Lodge. The home had everything that we could ask for and more. It was in close proximity to Angel Fire and a very nice drive to Sipapu and Taos. We got lucky with a big snow before and after we left so no issues driving for us. Thanks to the owners for allowing us to stay and bring our 4 legged family members too!

Angel Fire Ski 2023

Property was fantastic and lodge was incredible. The lodge had more accommodation items than ANY other VRBO we've ever been at, to include any quality appliance you could think of. Communication with host was on point as we had multiple requests due to heavy snow during our stay. Would HIGHLY recommend this property for your future stay!

Great Winter Getaway

Our family of six adults, one baby, and three small dogs had a wonderful time in this cozy cabin in the woods. They didn't spare one detail in the planning of this rental. EVERYTHING you could possibly need is there. We had plenty of room, beautiful views all the way around, and it was warm and toasty as we watched over 3 feet of snow fall in two days. Russ was great about checking in with us to see if we needed anything, and was prompt in getting the snow plowed so we could use the driveway. The location was close to the ski area, which was perfect so we could come back at lunch to eat in between morning and afternoon skiing. We had a lot of fun and would definitely stay here again!

Great family get away

The cabin was so homey and well equipped with everything we needed. My husband loved cooking on the black stone grill on the deck. My almost 80 year old parents stayed in the 1 upstairs main level bedroom. All other bedrooms are in the downstairs basement style floor. Be sure to bring soaps, shampoos. It was the perfect Christmas get away for our family and the hosts were very helpful.

Fantastic home

This property is truly gorgeous! Everything about its design and amenities were set up to be an ideal relaxation spot. We had family meet us and all ages in our group found the house perfectly met their needs. By far the porch was our favorite place to melt away ours together. Russell and his wife were the perfect hosts and very responsive to any needs or questions. This has been my favorite home thus far I have stayed at. Truly felt like home.

We had an absolutely wonderful time. The cabin was clean and accurate to description. Any questions we had were promptly answered. Our dogs didn’t want to leave lol. When we go back to Angel Fire we will definitely be looking at the Lazy Dog Ranch to stay at again. One of the best places I’ve found to stay at.

Great place to stay for family ski vacation. Kitchen was well-supplied with everything we needed. Four kids and their parents had plenty of room to sprawl out and there was enough privacy for the grandparents in a separate bedroom. Beautiful setting nestled on the hillside. Quiet, warm and safe.

About the host

Hosted by Russell Drinnan

My wife and I love the outdoors. We spend a lot of our time walking our dogs, that is one of the great things about Angel Fire, there are many hiking trails throughout the area and they are always well maintained.
I was born in New Zealand and Lived in Australia for a lot of years. Pam my wife was born Louisville Kentucky and she relocated to California and Then to Australia. Pam has been teaching and I have been working at an Ice rink. Pam and I have both retired and we live in the property unless it is rented out.
Pam and I ride mountain bikes, run,play Pickleball, snowshoe, cross country ski and we love hiking with our dogs.

Why they chose this property

We traveled to Angel Fire in may 2016 looking for a mountain home with a mild summer, as Pam cannot handle hot days. We arrived at the end of the snow season and the town looked very bare but we found this beautiful log home with 1.25 acres of land with numerous trees around the home. We both fell in love with the home and now we have to wait until we retire in a couple of years to fully enjoy it. I think the main reason though is that it is the closest mountain town to where our daughter lives.

What makes this property unique

The reason we fell in love with this home was the peaceful surroundings and the beautiful log home.The home was not dark inside as the previous owner had put in skylights in the kitchen/lounge area. The main living area was very open and the covered decks with propane fire pit, BBQ and lots of comfortable chairs was a definite draw card. We also loved the area for all it has to offer ie skiing, mountain biking, fishing, hiking a small lake 1.5 miles away and a larger lake within 10 miles, so all in all what is there not to love about this area.
