About this property

Parks Chalet- Your Flagstaff AZ home base

The Parks Chalet is cute as a button. Located 17 miles west of Flagstaff near the historic railroad and on the way to the Grand Canyon this is a perfect home base to explore all that Northern Arizona has to offer. Only about a mile south of I-40 at exit 178 (Parks). This architect designed cabin is built in a very private setting, surrounded by Ponderosa Pine trees. It can be awkward renting STVR next to full time neighbors, Parks Chalet Borders the Kaibab National Forest with no neighbors next to you so you will have total privacy. Bring your ATV toys for your off road fun .

The kitchen and living room feature granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances with a beautiful electric fireplace. The sofa sleeper provides a very nice experience with the TV , electric fireplace, French doors, window views of the beautiful nature outside. The upstairs bedroom balcony has a small deck with a breath taking view. The outdoor paver patio features a gas fire pit, and barbecue grill with dining area. The back of the property has rocky cliffs great for exploring, hiking and at the top you can see San Francisco peaks. Animal lovers check out Bearizona and the deer farm located near by.

Parks Feed and Mercantile gas station and Parks In the Pines General Store Deli & Cafe just down the street.

In the winter make sure you have SUV, Front wheel drive or 4 wheel drive vehicle incase it snows.

Be ready for the trains

Overall the place was nice. I was disappointed that some of the online descriptions are inaccurate though. #1 "near the historic railroad", the property is very close to the railroad and there are several trains that go by and blow the train whistle at all hours. So be prepared to be woken up by trains in the night, or use ear plugs. #2 "In the city center / downtown", this area is extremely rural so it's not like you can just go walking down the road to shops and restaurants. #3 "On a lake / on the waterfront", there was no sign of a lake or waterfront within the area, so this is misleading.

Summer Trip to the Grand canyon

My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights and the location and property was great for all our day trips to surrounding areas. The amenities were perfect and we enjoyed the place after we did some cleaning. We had to wipe down all counters and the table, as well as the coffee table. We also have to run the vacuum , which we filled up the canister twice with hair and dirt. It appears the renters before us had some pets and there was pet hair everywhere. Once we thoroughly cleaned it, we were good to go. We feel we should get our cleaning fee refunded since the place is cleaner now than before we got there.

Rejuvenating

We stayed for two nights at this cozy cabin in Flagstaff and had a wonderful time.The place was spotless and clearly well taken care of, with thoughtful decor that made it feel warm and welcoming. It’s a great spot for a quick getaway—close enough to town, but still with that peaceful, woodsy vibe.The only thing to keep in mind is the nearby train tracks. The noise didn’t ruin our stay, but it’s noticeable, especially at night—something to consider if you're a light sleeper.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a clean, charming place to stay in Flagstaff!

Nice size for two

We booked this cabin because we wanted a place between Williams and Flagstaff, so its location was ideal. And, we did get used to the trains. The communication with the host was very good! They responded to questions quickly.

Escape from the concrete jungle

My husband and I recently spent 8 days and 7 amazing nights at Parks Chalet. We live in the Phoenix area, and getting away from the sweltering heat and hustle and bustle of work was truly a blessing. The cabin is so comfortable and quaint and has everything you could possibly want or need. We saw deer and chipmunks just steps away from the cabin. The views are amazing, and even though the cabin is literally tucked away in the forest, it is only a short distance away from downtown Williams and all its' Main Street charm. We arrived at Parks Chalet loaded with stress, and immediately felt the tension of our busy lives completely melt away. Thank you to our host, Tom, for a wonderful vacation and we will definitely go back again.

Train property

Perfect for a heavy sleeper! Amazing if you love the sound of a freight train’s horn all hours of evening and day. A juxtaposition of tranquil seclusion and unforgiving train that for me personally, earplugs and a pillow over my head wouldn’t suffice. Nothing that the host can fix. Everything else, lovely!

Excellent Chalet in the woods

Beautiful surroundings, comfortable interior. We were here in the middle of April, it was 71 on Monday-Tuesday it snowed overnight Friday-Saturday with an accumulation of 4-6 inches. So be aware. Also there is a nearby train that rumbles thru every hour and blows its horn, but there were plenty of ear plugs provided which had me sleeping like a baby.

Lovely little cabin near active RR tracks!

Great little place to stay, especially if you love trains. Trains are very active, we heard about 20 in 3 hrs our 1st night. Host did have ear plugs if needed. There was some pet hair on an ottomon, & not very close to much, hence the 4's. But it was what we needed and would stay again.

Great place to escape for a weekend

Unbelievable easy to access and hidden in all the Pines, the trains were fairly close and active but it didn't take away from the appeal in any way. It was a really beautiful cabin and property.

Perfect Getaway Location

It was one of the best cabins I have stayed in. Great location with manageable distance from quite some tourist attractions. Tranquillizing environment without noisy neighbors. We love trains so we don’t consider the train sound annoying at all. It’s a very clean and organized place. Well stocked and equipped kitchen is wonderful, especially the collection of the seasonings. The only down side if I have to name one is the internet speed since it’s a satellite Internet. Well, I consider it as a perfect getaway place to force me to shift my attention to the nature from the crappy and crazy internet world. Tom was really helpful via text messaging to answer my questions as well. Thank you again and we had a great time there.

Very nice cabin. Very clean and well prepared. Peaceful and nice setting. Owners very responsive. The only issue was nearby freight train tracks. Blowing of horn at intersection all night long was only drawback. We would stay again despite the train.
