This is a beautiful home with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, making it perfect for large families or group gatherings. The house is well maintained, spacious, and thoughtfully designed to comfortably accommodate everyone.There are lots of activities for kids right at the house, and the surrounding area offers several beautiful lakes and outdoor recreation opportunities to enjoy. The hosts also provided clear, detailed communication before our stay, making check-in and expectations easy to understand. We had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway for a larger group.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Bloomer

Host profile image
Welcome! We’re Michael and Ally Bloomer, Arizona locals who love creating places where families and friends can slow down, reconnect, and make lasting memories.

We started Bloomer Vacation Rentals because we believe the best vacations happen in homes that are thoughtfully designed, exceptionally clean, and stocked with the little details that make a big difference. Whether you’re gathering around the fire, relaxing in the hot tub, enjoying a game of pickleball, or exploring the beauty of Arizona, we want your stay to be comfortable, fun, and stress-free.

Hosting isn’t just about providing a place to stay—it’s about helping create unforgettable experiences. We’re always happy to share local recommendations and are available if you need anything during your visit. We look forward to hosting you and hope you’ll come back again and again!

Why they chose this property

Nestled among the tall pines of Show Low, our home offers the perfect balance of peaceful mountain living and convenient access to everything the White Mountains have to offer. The neighborhood is quiet, spacious, and surrounded by nature, making it an ideal place to relax while still being just minutes from shopping, restaurants, golf courses, hiking trails, lakes, and year-round outdoor recreation.

One of our favorite things about the area is how it brings people together. Mornings are perfect for enjoying coffee on the deck while watching the wildlife, afternoons are spent exploring nearby lakes or trails, and evenings are all about gathering with family and friends under the stars. Whether you’re here for a summer escape from the desert heat or a cozy winter retreat, the White Mountains offer something special in every season.

What makes this property unique

Fern Way Lodge was designed to be more than just a place to stay—it’s a destination where large families and groups can comfortably gather, relax, and make memories together.

Situated on four private acres in the beautiful White Mountains, the home offers over 5,600 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with room for everyone to spread out. Guests love the private pickleball and basketball court, hot tub, multiple indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, all en-suite bathrooms, game and media areas, and well-appointed kitchen that’s perfect for preparing meals together.

Unlike many vacation rentals, we focus on the details. From comfortable beds and quality furnishings to a fully equipped home and responsive local support, we’ve created the kind of place we would want to stay with our own family. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, hosting a family reunion, or simply escaping the heat for a mountain getaway, Fern Way Lodge offers a luxury experience that keeps guests coming back year after year.
