Have a weekend getaway, or spend a week or more relaxing at the Bear Haven Cabin in the White Mountains at Bison Ridge, only 3 hours from Phoenix or 4 hours from Tucson! Stay close to all city amenities while enjoying a remote feel – a true “City Girl’s (or Guy’s) Cabin”!
Breathe the fresh mountain air while enjoying your morning coffee or do some remote work on the extended gated patio deck. Four steps down to fenced backyard. Chilly day? Flip the switch to turn on the river rock gas fireplace. Central heat and air conditioning will keep you comfortable, no matter the temp!
NOTE: access is only by stair, requiring four steps up to the front entry.
Our bear-themed cabin is very clean, with NEW Hickory flooring throughout. Fully stocked kitchen (bring your own food), 2 bedrooms with pillow top mattresses on the queen beds, new full-size washer & dryer, DVD/Blu-ray player (nearby Redbox rental kiosks at Safeway & CVS, or bring your own!), WFM-friendly WIFI, propane BBQ on the deck, selection of board games. Parking in driveway for 2 cars.
We have a FULL TIME caretaker, in case you need assistance (available via phone, number posted in cabin).
