- 3 Hotels
- 3 Historic Spaces
- 2 Meeting Spaces
The Lodge at Cloudcroft is a historic mountain resort set at 9,000 feet in New Mexico's Sacramento Mountains, operating continuously since 1899. The property was rebuilt at its current location in 1911 following a fire, and over the decades welcomed notable guests including Judy Garland, Clark Gable, and Pancho Villa — with Conrad Hilton serving as property manager during the 1930s. The resort hosts weddings, receptions, banquets, executive retreats, and conferences across nine event spaces accommodating up to 200 guests. Indoor spaces showcase historic architectural details — hand-carved woodwork, knotty pine walls, and stone fireplaces — while outdoor venues offer panoramic views of the Sacramento Mountains, the championship golf course, and Lincoln National Forest. An in-house catering team, experienced event coordinators, and on-site audiovisual equipment support events from initial planning through the day itself.
