Creekside cabins in Arizona pines

Kohl's Ranch Lodge keeps things easy with rustic creekside cabins and lodge studios set right on the banks of Tonto Creek in the world’s largest Ponderosa Pine Forest.

A grand lobby fireplace sets the scene for winding down after time outdoors.

  • Ride out with the stables

    Horseback excursions explore hundreds of miles of desert and mountain trails.

  • Fish the creek at the doorstep

    Cast along Tonto Creek, seasonally stocked with rainbow trout right on property.
