The Fishin' Hole In Valley Of The Pines Red River

The town of Red River is located in the middle of the Carson National Forest with hiking trails leading, among other places, up to Wheeler Peak, the highest point in New Mexico. The Red River Ski Area offers snow skiing and snowboarding beginning on the Thanksgiving holidays and continuing through Spring Break. Even when the natural snow is not as plentiful, the Red River Ski Area has the best snow-making in the state of New Mexico. Red River is just a fun town and is great for families. The town has wonderful shopping and galleries, nice restaurants, and even places to two-step.

The Fishin’ Hole is nestled in the Valley of the Pines just 3 miles outside of Red River. This quaint, three bedrooms, two bath cabin sleeps 8, has a full-size kitchen, wood-burning fireplace and washer and dryer. Two bedrooms each with queen beds are on the first floor, while the upstairs has another queen bed and a double in separate areas. The best “room”, however, is the new deck out back that overlooks the Red River that flows just 20 feet from the back door. The sound of the river is soothing to the soul, and the excellent fishing will provide the freshest, rainbow trout dinner around! The river is stocked in the summer months, and this location on the river is ideal for a good catch! Fishing not your thing? Art lovers will enjoy the numerous art galleries in both Red River and Taos, just 40 minutes away. Music lovers will find plenty of venues, hikers plenty of trails, and horse lovers trails to ride. Shoppers can park at one end of the town and stroll through the many, cute shops, stopping for a bite to eat at any corner. In the center of town is the Red River Community House, built in 1940. For generations, vacationers have returned to this spot for traditions all ages have loved, such as line-dancing, two stepping, guided hikes, boat-building for kids, movies on the lawn, and, best of all, endless egg tosses for all on the 4th of July.

Throughout the year you will have great fun watching the torchlight parade during ski season, enjoy Mardi Gras in the Mountains during February, the Fine Art and Wine Festival in June, the 4th of July Parade, the Hot Chili Days, Cool Mountain Nights celebration in August, Aspencade Arts & Crafts Festival in September, and Oktoberfest in October.

This cozy cabin is a little bit of heaven located high in the Rocky Mountains. It’s sure to bring joy to all ages. If you want to venture beyond Red River, Angel Fire, with a beautiful, 18-hole golf course, is about an hour away in Taos and 2 hours from Santa Fe, with its shopping, art galleries and restaurants. Come refresh you soul at the Fishin’ Hole!

Beautiful!!
The cabin was perfect for our family. View from the master bedroom was phenomenal as you could look out and see the river flowing! We even got to see the first snow of the season! My grandson’s first time to see snow!! He was so excited! My English Bulldogs thought the river was a swimming pool and decided to jump in!😅 We also enjoyed the outdoor fire pit for some yummy roasted marshmallows. Kitchen was equipped with everything you need. Spence was extremely attentive to our needs! Highly recommend this cabin. Hated to leave but hope to be back one day!

A great property has been made even better
My wife and I have been going to Red River in September every year since 2018. The first place we stayed was the Fishing Hole, and we loved it. The location on the river is outstanding. We went there for 2 years, but the next year when we tried to book it, it was already booked. We looked around and another place in the Volley of the Pines, and it was very nice as well. We started going back to the new place, but ther were always problems with cleanliness that we never had at the Fish Hole, so this year we decided to go back there. When we got there and looked around, we were pleasantly surprised to see that a lot of upgrades had been made since our last visit. If there was one negative on our previous visits it was that the back porch was getting a little rundown, and that’s where we like to spend a lot of our time. The back porch has been completely rebuilt, and it is now first class. Inside we saw that the furniture in the main room was all new. There are 2 very comfortable sofas. One of them, has a recliner on each end. That was great! We’ve been stay in vacation rentals for over 30 years, and we’ve rarely found one with a chair anywhere near as comfortable as our recliners at home. This was it. Also noticed a new stove, new washer and dryer, and I believe the bed we slept in was new since we were here last. It was very comfortable. It’s clear the owners have put some money into this place too make a nice place even better. We plan to come back.

Perfect setting!
We took our three elementary aged grandkids for 24 hours to the Fishin’ Hole. We were all content to just stay right in that perfect back yard and explore and skip rocks and wade in the stream. Or we could picnic on the table by the stream. Or sit and watch the kids while swinging on the porch swing. There was a perfect set-up for an outdoor fire and s’Mores in the evening. Played games from their plentiful supply. The kitchen was well-stocked and there was plenty of room for everyone. It was a beautiful setting for a mountain get away!

By the River
We have stayed in the upper valley outside of Red River for years. It’s hard to find good vacation rentals actually on the river. We were pleasantly surprised that the cabin is on the river. We loved the large back porch. Even though there were other rentals in the area, it was very quiet.

Great location. Really enjoyed the backyard river. Weather was beautiful. We had several issues initially, but owner was responsive to repairs. Nice wood ceiling but we were disappointed with the confusion in listing details (4 bedroom, 2 bath), outdated furniture, squeaky floors as you're trying to walk through house to get to the bathroom in the middle of the night, burned out lightbulbs, carpet in kitchen and bathrooms, old mattresses, broken screen doors in bedrooms, poor water pressure in showers, overgrown grass in driveway and firepit. This home would be better for a family with kids. Kids in upstairs loft. We had all adults. We appreciated the games and also enjoyed walking in the neighborhood.

Stay was fine. Kitchen, a sharp knife would have been nice, simply sharpen what is there. Know our dish washing quality, question previous renters. Enjoyed having a fire, the quality of the fire wood left a little to be desired

Nice area, great views, needs a maid
Pros: beautiful spot with great river views, can ride utvs into town, well stocked kitchen Cons: floor decking throughout is loose, squeaky and needs to be renailed. If you get up at night the whole house will know about it. Carpet is stained and dirty as is one of the couches. I suspect it hasnt been vaccumed in several weeks or ever deep cleaned. Obvious areas were wiped off, some surfaces were covered in dust and hair (toilet tank lids). Lights didnt work in kitchen vent hood, over the kitchen sink, and several bulbs were out in dining room and on back porch. Could be a great place if the owner would do some maintenace and hire a cleaning lady to really clean.

Beautiful area with a river running behind the house. Lots of other houses around the cabin. Cabin was basic and rustic--no dishwasher or garbage disposal. Beds and pillows are not new. Pets are allowed so cleanliness is affected. The back porch is the best spot with the sound of the rushing water!
