Painted Pony Cabin

Welcome to Painted Pony Cabin, a charming log retreat tucked among tall pines on a peaceful stretch of Angel Fire. Gather in the soaring great room by the fireplace, cook together in the full kitchen, and spill out onto the wraparound deck to grill, sip coffee, and watch for deer and elk. With three bedrooms, a cozy loft, and the slopes just over a mile away, it is your year-round basecamp for mountain adventure and slow, restful mornings.

Painted Pony Cabin is a classic Northern New Mexico cabin where rustic character meets room to spread out. Vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, Southwest textiles, and a wood-burning fireplace give the home a warm mountain-lodge feel, while walls of windows pull in the surrounding pines and fill the great room with light. Set on a quiet, wooded lot with a signature painted pony greeting you at the steps, the home feels private and peaceful, with frequent visits from local wildlife.

Whether you are here for ski days, summer hikes, biking, or a relaxed family gathering, the cabin gives everyone space to come together and unwind.
