Waterfall Lodge is located six miles outside of
Cloudcroft, New Mexico, deep in the heart of
Lincoln
National Forest and is over 8500 feet in elevation. |
 |
Waterfall Lodge sits on 7 acres in upper
Jones Canyon
six miles outside of
Cloudcroft, New Mexico.
The lodge is surrounded by beautiful pines trees,
nature with drinkable spring water abounding in
this mountain paradise.
The lodge,
nestled in Jones Canyon was originally built in the early 40's,
and
founded as a convent; in fact, the convent owned most of
the property in Jones Canyon up until the late 60's.
Then, in about 1970, it was purchased by a private party
and converted into a school for the handicapped which it
remained for around 15 years. |
Finally, in the early eighties, Waterfall Lodge was
established as a public lodge and recreational fishing
site and it remains a popular destination for visitors
to the
Cloudcroft, New Mexico area to this day.
Waterfall Lodge is an approximately 6000 square foot, 8
bedroom facility. Seven of the eight rooms are available
to our guests with our guest capacity totaling 37
people. The lodge is constructed almost entirely of red
brick with knotty pine finishing throughout. Inside,
there are two separate dens, a game room, 3 indoor
fireplaces and a large
kitchen where you can cook up a hearty breakfast each
morning.
 On the outside, the lodge is surrounded by covered brick
walkways which accent nicely our 2 outdoor red brick
fireplaces that are perfect for those large BBQ
gatherings or evening cookouts where our guests
frequently enjoy fresh caught trout from our spring fed
trout ponds conveniently located at the end of our
redwood decking extending out from the lodge. Toward the rear
of the property, scenic hiking trails lead into
Lincoln
National Forest, and to the front, picturesque
waterfalls cascade down the valley into three
crystal-clear pools below.
During the Summer,
Cloudcroft, New Mexico is a popular destination
for hiking, mountain biking,
horse back riding, shopping, stargazing,
fishing, swimming and more.

Waterfall Lodge is often a
romantic destination for weddings and other group events
that lend itself to beautiful scenery for unforgettable
pictures. |
Nature enthusiasts and photographers flock to the
lodge during the spring to capture the abundant
wildlife and floral explosions of color.
