Overview
Property Details
House, 5 Bedrooms, 3.5 Baths, Sleeps 12
A stunning setting for all seasons. This multi-level custom home sits on 5 acres of beautiful ponderosa pine trees and features views of the San Francisco Peaks through the large picture window, the upstairs loft, and the expansive stone patio.
Easy access to superb biking and hiking trails including Fort Valley Trail System and the Shultz trails.
A winter get-away four miles northwest of Flagstaff on the road to Grand Canyon, this beautiful location gives easy access to Snowbowl downhill ski runs, Wing Mountain snow play area, and cross country skiing at the Nordic Center. Stay the night and beat the crowds into Snowbowl and Wing Mountain--and avoid the traffic back into town later in the day.
The acreage around the home makes for great snow play. Use your showshoes or cross country skis without leaving the property!

family vacation in flagstaff
Wildlife - this cabin has beautiful big windows and patios all around the house. We saw deer, squirrel, bluejays, a rabbit, and chipmunk, at the cabin site - before we left for our 'nature walk'.
Activities - we went to the Grand Canyon one day, some of our party went to see the stars at the Lowell Observatory, and some of us did the Flagstaff Extreme ropes course. All of it was a lot of fun. But even if we hadn't done any of those things we would have had a great time just being at the cabin.
Our grandsons loved playing in the small gable room upstairs with a Thomas the tank engine trainset and playing on the swingset out back. We brought up some of our families favorite games and DVDs. But there were lots of games already at the cabin in their gameroom, and the ping-pong table was a big hit.
This cabin in the woods was perfect for our family. With our children, their spouses, and our grandchildren, we had 10 adults, two 4yr old boys, and two infant girls. With a group this size, having enough bathrooms, beds, and space is important. There was plenty of room for everyone, and lots of fun activities. While the decorations were kind of kitchy, that was just right for our family, it added to the family reunion feel of this wonderful cabin in the woods.

family vacation in flagstaff
This was our families first experience renting a home for a vacation. It was wonderful. The owner was great to work with both before and during our stay. I had some questions and he responded promptly.

Impressive home
We've stayed at several rental homes for our family vacations and this was one of the best. The home had everything that anyone could need while on vacation. The home was very clean. The owner was great at about communicating the details that we need to know for the week. The kids had comfortable rooms to sleep in and when on vacation that is a very real plus. The location of the home was perfect. I liked that it wasn't right in town but close enough to everything. I highly recommend the place!
Winter Wonderland
This cabin was AWESOME! It was spacious, yet cozy at the same time. The kids had a blast playing on the playset outside, sledding, building snow forts, roasting marshmellows, sleeping on bunk beds, and exploring all the hidden nooks in the cabin! Adults has fun playing ping pong and even shovelling snow! (we live in the desert) We also enjoyed the proximity to the downtown area (especially the brew pub!)We had fun just hanging out at the cabin!
It was the perfect winter getaway for my husband's 40th! We will definately be returning! As an avid traveler and a former Las Vegas resort concierge, I highly recommend this property and Chris provided outstanding customer service. Thanks for a great time and priceless memories!
fantastic week
What a fantastic week my family of eight had at this beautiful home. Over the years we have stayed at many cabins and this one ranks at the top. The cabin was huge. My granddaughters played in the lofts, hidden nooks, nanny's quarters and outside. The nanny's quarters was bigger than some apartments I have lived in. It was an oasis for two of my family members. The main house was spacious and no one felt crowded. You could be out on the huge patio cooking, reading or just enjoying the view and listening to the wind in the trees. We saw deer every day. There was plenty of hiking available. The Snowbowl, Grand Canyon, Powell Observatory and downtown Flagstaff provided plenty of opportunities for sightseeing. You could do a lot or nothing at all. The owner, Chris, went beyond what was expected to make sure our stay was great. Don't pass up the chance to experience what we did for a week!

Notes:
- This home has 5 bedrooms, loft areas, and a total of 3 1/2 baths. The master bedroom on the ground floor features a king bed and its own access to a private patio seating area. The master bathroom includes a large garden tub as well as a walk-in tiled shower. The second level includes two bedrooms with bunk beds, a twin and a trundle for the kids. A loft area with loveseat for reading or enjoying the view of Mount Humphreys separates the bunkrooms from two additional bedrooms, each featuring a queen bed. There are two bathrooms on the second level. The ground floor includes a living area with a cozy, gas fireplace, a piano and picture-window view of Mount Humphreys. The TV room has a couch and flat-screen with DirecTV, DVD, and VHS players. The room also includes a table with six chairs--a great place for kids to play board games or puzzles, and for 'kids dining' while adults use the larger table for six in the dining area. Extra tables and chairs are available in the garage. There is a game room with a ping-pong table, bay window seating, games and toys. Game room opens to a private wooden covered deck. Large kitchen includes an island with gas stovetop and multiple food prep areas. There is a half bath off the kitchen and a hallway leading to the 'mud room' with utility sink, washer and dryer, and access to the large stone patio area with commercial-grade barbeque, front wrap-around wooden deck, and access to the garage. The land surrounding the home is stunning, with easy access to hiking and mountain bike trails, national monuments, Grand Canyon National Park, and historic Flagstaff. Wildlife includes deer, elk, squirrels and many species of birds. Feel secluded, yet close to Flagstaff activities. Home features radiant in-floor heating in addition to the gas fireplace with blower. Is this vacation home right for you? If you want a large screen TV in every room, this isn't the right home for you. If you want to enjoy the peace and quiet of the ponderosa pine forest in a comfortable cabin atmosphere with easy access to hiking, biking and winter sports, this is the right home for you. Please note that we do not allow large gatherings, weddings, wedding receptions or other such events at the site.
