Imagine waking up every morning to the towering ponderosa pines of the Coconino forest right in your backyard. Hike, bike or cross country ski right out of the back gate. Then head to downtown Flagstaff, only ten minutes away, for a bite. Enjoy the large stone fireplace, vaulted pine ceilings and oversized windows that give you gorgeous views of the forest. Have all of the modern amenities like high speed WIFI and a level 2 EV charger, but still feel the calm and quiet of a mountain cabin.
Nestled in the Coconino forest, our spacious home offers the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience. Centrally located, it provides easy access to local attractions and outdoor adventures, yet ensures a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle:

We loved our time in this home. It’s so charming, nicely updated, and comfortable. Plenty of room for the kids to play inside and out. The beds were very comfortable and the water pressure in the showers was great. We appreciated being in a quieter area surrounded by trees, while still close to town for fun and food. Communication with the owners was awesome and timely. We will definitely try to stay here again!
