The cabin we stayed in was definitely HAUNTED!! we had several strange things happen during our stay. Wouldn't mind staying again
Beautiful place! Was here for a wedding and loved that the entire wedding party could have the entire place (over 10 cabins) to themselves. I loved that I could bring my husky to the cooler weather. The cabins were clean and cozy! It got so cold in the evenings we needed the heater, but the bedroom heater worked so good we didn't even need it on the whole night. Loved the kitchen and all the appliances. Definitely want to come back for a family vacation.
We just finished a two night stay and we'll go back again. The cabins are in a beautiful setting that's quiet and well-kept. Lots of trees for shade, and barbeques, pits and comfy seating for outside socializing. The cabins are simply, but well furnished with modern appliances.
Appears to me that this is a pretty new building with very well kept rooms and kitchens. Appreciated all the laminate floors and multiple bathrooms. Didn't really like the unfinished wood baseboards and door frames, but that may just be my opinion. The manager took care of our needs wonderfully and our large group was able to get a discount. The weather was surprisingly nice for midsummer in Arizona and even the rain couldn't quash our good time.
Great place, this was our first time in this place, but we loved it. Nice design of cabins, like a home. We used fireplace inside, it was really pleasant. Kevin, who runs/manager the place was great, very helpful and checked on us, gave us directions for hiking trails. The only thing that needs improvement are the beds, as they were uncomfortable, we asked Kevin to rely msg to the owner, hopefully, they'll address it. We loved where it was situated, away from main roads for more private and completely surrounded by forest.
