Views Like None Other

My husband and I spent a very relaxing week at this lovely hideaway. The views from every window are picturesque but become absolutely stunning once you're out on the decks! Just simply delighful! The kitchen is not only well equipped but beautiful, with thick granite countertops and cream colored, handsome cabinets. Loved the big fridge/freezer and large dining table that seats 6. Another plus was the mattress in the upstairs bedroom: total comfort! Actually. this is a perfect house for a family, with plenty of room downstairs. We highly recommend booking this cabin whether you want a peaceful setting with spectacular views or a place to entertain guests on the awesome decks! You would be hard pressed to find something similar for the price and ambience!

Amazing mountain cabin in Arizona

My entire family agrees that this was the best cabin we've stayed at! The location is perfect: quiet, friendly Arizona mountain town with great food, incredible views and weather, and close to many great areas such as Sedona, Prescott, Flagstaff and many parks. If you are traveling to be outdoors, this is the perfect place.The cabin itself was very comfy. The owner had everything labelled well and with easy to understand directions. The views are fantastic right off the back deck. We could not have asked for more.We highly recommend this cabin for anyone!

Just as pictured

The house was just as pictured. It was set up perfectly for our needs. It was quiet, relaxing, and a great place to come back to after long days of hiking. We loved the scenery, the wildlife, game room etc. The list goes on. It would have been a bonus if there was a second tv. Although we didn’t watch it until evenings with littles a second would be great option to not have to compromise on what is being watched. We would definitely come back!

Lovely location

We so enjoyed the property. The kitchen was well stocked, and both decks were spectacular. Really appreciated the coffee station. Also, it was easy for the different family members to be comfortable, even when my parents wanted their bedroom at 77 and I wanted mine at 66, because the downstairs area remained pretty cool naturally. Seriously, nothing beats that view. And the bottle of wine left for us was so nice.

Amazing cabin with amazing views

This cabin is awesome. The views are breathtaking. By far the best views I’ve ever had staying in a short term rental. We saw numerous elk in the valley below in the evening, which was a pleasant surprise. There were even binoculars provided so that we could get a better look at them. The host was also very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. I’m already thinking about when me and my family can come back.
