Quiet cabin nestled under Mogollon Rim

Step away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and relax with your family and/or friends at this quiet, secluded cabin surrounded by the Tonto National Forest. Plenty of great nearby trails, and magnificent views of the Mogollon Rim. Three apple trees in front that provide great shade as well as late dinner for the elk. Plenty of room for up to 6 guests (4 adults) with all the comforts of home including a fully stocked kitchen. A great place to unwind and truly relax.
The cabin has two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and two twin beds in the other. Two bathrooms, both with showers only. We have a futon that turns into a double size bed in the living room. A TV with a smart Blu Ray player is available with a wide selection of DVDs and Blu Rays to enjoy. We also have a phone booster to help using hotspots, no Wi-Fi available.
A large porch to sit under and enjoy the birds, reading a book or playing card and board games. Seating in the front yard with a propane fire pit, perfect for roasting marshmallows and enjoying the amazing night skies. You will find a propane BBQ grill located in the backyard to whip up that perfect meal. The property is fenced in for everyone to enjoy and your pets to safely run and play.
The cabin is located about 30 minutes from Mogollon Rim and all the great lakes and hiking trails, located along the 300 road. One of our favorite hiking trails, Horton Creek, is about 4 miles away and a joy during any season!

Decompress

Very peaceful ! Cabin was clean, well stocked with dishes, cooking pans utensils, toiletries (even for the women), bbq, lawn chairs, bedding, & on & on & on... hardly saw any people during our stay. Very pet friendly ! Extremely good place to decompress from "lifes offerings" ! Recomended 100% but must plan ahead as this place, as expected, is booked up well in advance.

Relaxing Stay

My husband and I stayed over the weekend and had a wonderful and relaxing time. We brought our two dogs with and they loved meeting the hosts dog and running the fence with him. The neighbors would also stop to greet our dogs. We took a hike with beautiful views right down the street. We absolutely cannot wait to return!

Great property for our family

Clean, comfortable property with hosts that offer great hospitality and communication. Loved the fenced yard for the dog. Outdoor area was cozy and quiet, great for relaxing. Enjoyed the fire pit in the evening. A bit of a drive up some unpaved roads, so it was really helpful that the hosts gave us very detailed directions, and we appreciated the seclusion and cooler weather of the location. Would stay again.

Nice and quiet

Enjoyed a quiet weekend for our winter holiday. The house is cozy and comfortable. Each room had its own space heater so you can adjust as you please. No internet or TV. It was great! Lots of games to play. The @6 miles of dirt road to get there were in good shape. Would stay here again.

Perfect Unplugging Get Away

Perfect getaway from the heat within the Tonto National Park. Lovely attentive hosts who care. My dogs loved playing in the fenced in yard and with Gunther the host dog, who is a sweetie! Cabin had everything we needed to sleep comfortably, cook all meals and relax on the hammock while reading. This was the perfect for dogs with the fenced in yard and doggie door, they didn’t want to leave. Thanks Deb!!

My boyfriend and I wanted to do a camping trip before our son is born in August but being 7.5 months pregnant, tent camping didnt sound fun. We stumbled across this cabin and decided to give it a shot and we are so glad we did. From the second we booked Deb was in contact with us on how to get there and instructions on check in and check out. She answered all our questions. Once we got there we were amazed at how quiet and beautiful the area was. The cabin was exactly what we needed and more. The fact we could bring our pups with us was another plus to the place. We felt right at home and so relaxed when we arrived. We sat on the porch and watched the birds in the apple trees up front. Our dogs loved running around the fenced in yard. At night we enjoyed dinner and sat outside and stargazed then settled in for the night and watched movies. Mornings were spent drinking coffee and enjoying the peace and quiet. During the day we went and explored Tonto creek and let the dogs play in the water which was not only fun for them but us too. On our last night we enjoyed the quiet of the neighborhood and stargazed. We got a nice surprise of an Elk in the neighbors yard around 11 pm. Deb was wonderful and responded to us fast when we had a question or our dog toy went over the fence. She even let us know about a fire on 87S that could affect our drive home. Overall we are extremely happy with our stay and will definitely be coming back in the near future once our son is born.

McKinney Christmas vacation

To start off Deb was in contact with us from day one and till the night before we came up. There’s a fire a few miles north east of the cabin on the rim. I was concerned that it might get in the way of our tip. Not one time I was reminded of the fire while we were there. The cabin is great. The 2 bathrooms are a plus. Never any cold water. We were never cold. There’s a pellet stove we didn’t even have to use to stay warm. 34 outside and with the small heaters inside it staid 70 easy inside. What I loved the most it this place is perfect if you have a dog. My dog loved watching the birds and squirrels play in the front yard. Deb has everything you need if you’re bringing your pet. Another cool thing is she has labels on most cabinets and drawers so you know where things are without opening them up and searching. I have to say our time there I can’t find one thing that got in our way or couldn’t find. We had a great time. Will definitely have to stay again when we can. Thanks again Deb for the late night medicine for my daughter’s stomach. Life saver.

Birthday get away

Me and my husband stayed for 2 nights for his birthday and had such a wonderful time! They even hung a little happy birthday banner that we thought was so sweet. We grilled and hung out outside and watched the birds. There’s trails walking distance from the house that have beautiful views we got to enjoy also. Would love to stay there again in the future.
