About this property

Grindstone Lake Lodge -Views-Family Reunion Ready

  • Perched high above Grindstone Lake with panoramic mountain and lake views, Grindstone Lake Lodge is Ruidoso’s premier luxury retreat. This 8-bedroom, 8-bath masterpiece accommodates up to 20 guests and offers a perfect blend of comfort, elegance, and natural beauty.

    The main living area features soaring ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, plush seating, and wall-to-wall windows framing the lake. A gourmet kitchen includes a six-burner gas cooktop, built-in oven and microwave, and a butler’s pantry with a full coffee bar. Each bedroom features a king bed, en suite bath, and smart TV; four bedrooms include an extra twin bed.

    Downstairs, the spacious game room offers pool table, arcade games, and a large TV, opening to an expansive deck overlooking the lake. The home is multi-level with stairs connecting both floors and permanently installed stair gates for safety.

    A nearby trail leads to Grindstone Lake Recreation Area for hiking, kayaking, and fishing (trail is unlit and some distance from the home—daylight use only). Midtown Ruidoso, Inn of the Mountain Gods, and Ski Apache are all within easy reach on paved, accessible roads.

    * A signed Rental Agreement is required prior to check-in.

    Noise monitoring and exterior driveway camera systems help ensure peaceful enjoyment and property safety.
    Absolutely no parties or events permitted. Bagging and taking trash to the nearby beige dumpsters is standard throughout Ruidoso, where curbside service is unavailable. Please close bear latches securely.

    New professional photos coming soon—the views are even more breathtaking in person!

10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
From the moment I booked this property, the hostess (Melissa) was very quick to respond to any inquiries I had. This home is truly lovely and the lake view is very nice. The descriptions are accurate. Our group really enjoyed the game room, watching college football, playing pool and shuffleboard. Melissa even shared with us the Aspenfest that was in town on Saturday which we had no idea until then. Overall, a wonderful stay for my crew!
