Tucked away in the heart of New Mexico’s Manzano Mountains, Pinetop Glamping Tent at Manzano Mountain Retreat offers a rare blend of rustic adventure and thoughtful comfort.

Life on the retreat moves with the rhythm of the land. Families love introducing their kids to our cheerful farm animals, from miniature donkeys and Highland cows to peacocks and ponies, while couples find quiet corners in the orchards or along forest trails. Adventurers set out on nearby hikes in the Cibola National Forest or explore the historic Quarai Ruins, while others prefer slow afternoons by the pool or curling up with a book by the firepit.
Food is part of the experience, too. On weekends, guests gather in our dining hall for a warm breakfast buffet, while weekday mornings bring fresh, made-to-order meals. For snacks, drinks, and grab-and-go items, our Mercantile is open daily. Every fall, our apple orchards come alive with harvest traditions, cider pressing, and donuts that keep guests coming back year after year.
What makes Pinetop and Manzano Mountain Retreat special isn’t just the setting, it’s the atmosphere. Guests tell us they arrive feeling weighed down by daily routines and leave feeling lighter, more connected, and full of memories. Children discover the freedom to explore, couples reconnect under star-filled skies, and groups trade screens for shared stories around the fire.
Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend, a family adventure, or a personal retreat, you’ll find that the pace is unhurried, the welcome is genuine, and the mountains seem to wrap you in their calm. Come experience the beauty, laughter, and hospitality that make Manzano Mountain Retreat unforgettable.
