About this property

Historic 1925 Pine Cone Inn

Just steps to the national forest, this fully equipped historic mountain style home offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience to Albuquerque, Santa Fe and the East Mountains. Plan your vacation for hiking, biking, ski or just relaxation. The former 1925 Pine Cone Tea room was the stopping off place for refreshments for those traveling back and forth to ABQ from the top of the Sandias. Then it was an all day trip.

Located at 7,000 ft elevation beneath towering ponderosa forests of the East Mountains along the Sandia Mountains and world famous Turquoise Trail, this affordable 1,400 sf self contained apartment with private entrance is situated in historic Tejano Canyon and along the original route to the Sandia Ski Hills & Trails.

Just 15 min to Albuquerque, 25 min to airport and 50 min to Santa Fe. Enjoy scenic day trips to historic mining towns of Golden, Madrid & Cerillos. Continue to famous Santa Fe & Taos and visit historic old towns with outstanding restaurants and world renown galleries.

Use this beautiful and peaceful setting on over 2 acres as your base camp. Perfect for a romantic get-away or family vacation.

Bring your mountain bikes, horses, running or hiking gear and step right into hundreds of miles of national forest trails.

Just a half day hike to the top of the mountain depending upon your ability (10,000+ elevation). Close to public horseback riding. Just a few minutes drive to Sandia Ski Hill, Capulin snow play area, trail heads and Sandia Peak scenic overlook & restaurant (10,567 elevation).

Find peace and seclusion, away from the crowded trails. Short drive to cafes, Ribs bbq restaurant, Greenside Cafe, gallery, gift shops and more.

This place has such an amazing cozy feel, we loved it. Everything for a good home base to enjoy the Sandia area. VRBO messaging was a little scratchy, not owners fault. This stay was value packed and I would recommend it. One thing to note is second bedroom is on the small side with twin beds. The master is gorgeous!

East Mountain Retreat

My wife and I stayed a few days at the Pine Cone Inn while we were visiting our son who lives up the mountain about 20 minutes. It was a very pleasant and comfortable experience for us. Our host, Brad, is very thorough and communicates every detail (and more) about the property and the east mountain area to ensure a great experience. We've stayed before with Brad at his larger property closer to Cedar Crest. Both are top-notch properties with attention to every detail. Highly recommended.
