About this property

Welcome to the Fossil Woods Getaway! Enjoy a cozy retreat from the Phoenix heat in the beautiful Ponderosa Pines of Arizona. Our newly renovated home is 984 sqft with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and sleeps 6 comfortably. It is situated on a nice lot with plenty of space to relax outside. Come enjoy the outdoors, watch the wildlife walk by and cozy up by the fire-pit and make lasting memories!

Fossil Woods Getaway is nestled in the quiet community of Strawberry Arizona, right across from the oldest standing schoolhouse in Arizona which was built in 1885. We are situated on a corner lot, just over half an acre, with plenty of space for games, sitting around a fire, and relaxing. Our driveway is circular and can fit multiple cars, quads, razors, side by sides, bikes, etc. So, bring your off road toys, there are many trails to explore in the area.

Wildlife including elk, deer, javelinas, skunks, foxes, coyotes roam the neighborhood often and do come on our property. Please keep your distance, you will be responsible for all risks and bodily injury that may occur from encounters with wildlife.

We do have a propane grill. If propane tank is empty, we will reimburse you if you fill them up (must provide a receipt). There is a gas station to fill them up down the street in Pine.

In the summer months, we have a swamp cooler to help keep the house cool. Windows will need to be cracked at least 2” to effectively allow cross-ventilation and control of the air flow. It will also help to reduce the amount of humidity and moisture in the home.

In the winter months, we have a central heating. We also have a gas fireplace that can be used year around if need be.

Please be mindful of water usage - Pine/Strawberry are in a severe drought. We are on a shared well, at times water pressure may be low. We should receive prior notice however a water outage might occur for a few hours while the company works on improving outdated infrastructure.

We do have security cameras on the outside of our home.

Awesome place!!!

This is our third time staying here. Absolutely love the house and location. Surrounded by tall pines, we always see elk in the neighborhood. Actually saw a deer on the neighbors lawn last time. If you get a chance, make a reservation for dinner at The Lodge down the street. Best Italian you will ever have. Also Pie Bar which is fantastic. The early bird cafe in Pine is great for breakfast. The house itself is perfect with everything you need. Its on half an acre so huge front yard for kids to run around. The owners are phenomenal and the communication is outstanding. Nice hiking in the area. Very peaceful neighborhood. 5 stars all the way. Would highly recommend

Fall break family getaway

Our family stayed at this cabin for 4 nights & it was wonderful! The cabin was clean, had everything we needed, had comfortable beds, super soft towels, & was overall very comfortable to stay at. Our young children LOVED being able to be outside in cooler weather & exploring. The fenced backyard was a nice peace of mind for us parents when our children were outside. The backyard swing was perfect to sit on & relax while enjoying being outside. We saw elk daily, a deer, & some squirrels. The neighborhood was quiet & the cabin was conveniently located. Amanda was very responsive, informative & easy to communicate with. We’d love to come back here!

Awesome as always

Second time at property. If you like wildlife, this is the place. We saw literally over 100 elk during our stay in the area. (Strawberry and Pine). The property has everything you need. Very big yard surrounded by tall pines. The owners are awesome and communication is great. Right down the street is the best Italian food you will ever eat at The Strawberry Lodge. Reservations highly recommended.
