Cool Mountain Ranch · Sleeps 8 · Near Gunsite, Windmill House & Prescott

Escape to Windmill Ranch — a peaceful 4-bedroom country home on 2 private fenced acres with wide-open mountain views, just 20 minutes from Gunsite Academy and downtown Prescott. Sleeps 8, with dedicated offices, full kitchen & laundry, and a porch made for sunsets. The reviews say it best: every VRBO guest has scored us a perfect 10 out of 10 — a flawless record across every stay for the past 4 years.
Summer escape: at ~4,700 ft, Windmill Ranch stays far cooler than the Phoenix Valley — trade 110° for porch breezes, starry nights, and easy day trips to lakes, Sedona & Jerome. Just ~90 minutes from Phoenix.
Training at Gunsite? You're 20 minutes away — secure private parking, room for your whole class group (sleeps 8), and quiet for early starts.

Beautiful Views and Home

We enjoyed this home in Chino Valley during spring break. We were able to visit the Grand Canyon and other landmarks while we stayed. The home was well stocked for a family and was plenty of space for my wife and three kids. We enjoyed watching the chickens in the morning and the dozen eggs the owner delivered upon our arrival. Thank you for making us feel welcome!!
