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.

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!
Welcome to Grindstone Lake Lodge! We’re so happy you’re here! This home is special — designed for rest, connection, and unforgettable mountain moments. To keep things comfortable and serene for everyone, please take a quick moment to review our friendly house guidelines below.

Respect the Space & the Peace

Maximum of 16 adults — registered guests only, please.

No parties or events of any kind. We love a good celebration, but this home and neighborhood are designed for relaxation and quiet enjoyment.

Quiet hours are 10:00 PM – 8:00 AM.

Safety & Security

There is a driveway camera outside for guest safety — never inside the home.

A noise monitor helps us maintain peaceful vibes. It measures volume only and does not record conversations.

Stair gates are installed at the top and bottom of the main staircase for safety.

Please, no smoking or vaping indoors.

Parking

You’re welcome to use the two-car garage and the paved motor court.

Please don’t block the road or neighboring driveways.

Trash & Wildlife

Bag all trash and take it to the public beige dumpsters nearby. This is standard practice in Ruidoso since there’s no curbside pickup.

Always close the bear latches on the dumpsters to keep wildlife (and your car) safe.

Grindstone Lake Access

The lake is just below the property and can be reached by a nearby trail.

The trail is unlit and some distance away, so please use it only during daylight hours.

For your safety, no lake access after dark.
