Roger's cabin was a great place to get some rest and relaxation. The hospitality was warm and welcoming. The night sky was a beautiful thing to see and the climate was perfect for those lazy dinners by the grill. We didn't miss having a stove/oven at all. Seeing elk right in our backyard was an extra bonus for us. The location is perfect for activities from the Grand Canyon to Sedona. We would love to return and have already spread the word about our cozy cabin in the woods! Thanks Andy and Linda for helping to make this a perfect vacation!!

Owner response:Thank you for the great review and for coming all this way to see our part of the U.S. Roger's cabin is the best spot to look for elk, so glad they showed up and stayed awhile. Most women really don't "miss the stove" There is enough of that at home. We hope you are able to come back again, Andy & Linda

What a wonderful retreat! We loved every moment of our stay in Roger's Cabin. Linda and Andy (the owners) were extremely personable and so kind to us. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome. The little cabin was perfect for the two of us. It was friendly, warm and inviting. The pictures online just do not do it justice. Many thank you's to our hosts for the helpful directions in finding Whitehorse Lake, stellar conversations and for the tinfoil...couldn't have cooked our trout without it. God Bless you both and cheers to a peaceful summer. Love, Mike and Mich

Owner response:No thank YOU for liking Roger's Cabin so much and for the great visit we had. I wish you lived next door, boy could we have fun. Not too many 5th generation Arizona natives still in the state. We hope you guys will come back, we'll be more than happy to furnish the tinfoil if you will share the Cajun fish ;-) Andy & Linda

Our family had a fantastic time at the Bunkhouse for Spring Break! Great location and you won't find a friendlier set of owners! The pictures just don't do this place justice - it is very warm and charming. We look forward to hopefully returning sometime!

Owner response:Thank you and we had fun with you guys. So glad you came our way and hope you will be back so we can give you a hard time about Texas again. You are great people contributing a lot to our world.

This is the second time we have been here; we came to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary in October 2011 & returned for Christmas 2011. We feel like we are at home; everything is PERFECT! The new floors and change of furniture made the cabin more roomy. It is peaceful, cozy and relaxing. Love the decor. Thank you Andy and Linda for being wonderful Host. Thank you for the cookies and pie ... delicious!! Definitely will be back to bring FAMILY!!

Owner response:Thank you so much for your review. It's so great to have guests that return. I was so embarrassed about the pie, when we went to have some I realized I forgot the sugar! My little grandson wanted to make the pie himself with "a little" of my help so I totally spaced out the sugar. He made the cookies too with his Mom. Good memories. It was great to have you guys come back, glad you like to changes. I love the new wood floors too. I've wanted to do that for years. Bring the kids and burn some marsh mellows out on the fire pit. :~) We have told a lot of friends about your "twin" dogs. Happy New Year, Linda

Great location for exploring Northern AZ in subtle comfort!

Guest: digitalsage (Yuma, AZ)
Date of Stay: 11/21/11 Review Submitted: 12/01/11

My family and I rented this cabin for the week of Thanksgiving and could not be more pleased. The location is great for exploring northern Arizona, roughly mid-way between Flagstaff and Williams, AZ. It's about a hour to the Grand Canyon, and near all of the natural beauty and adventures that the area has to offer (Lave Tube caves, meteor crater, Flagstaff shopping and dining, and the railroad train to the Grand Canyon which departs from Williams. The accomodations are relatively modest for some (no oven - microwave only, half-size fridge, space heaters), but all of the rustic basics are available (hot/cold water, clean linens, 1 king, 1 queen, 1 set of bunk beds). The cabin is the in the middle of a national forest, and is in a beautiful wilderness location just minutes from everything modern. Highly recommended -- we really enjoyed our stay!

Best Family Vacation Ever!!!!!

This cabin is just what my family needed. The description written by the owners was very accurate. I thought I would miss the stove but didnt even think about it one time. We used the grill and the crockpot. There was more than enough room for my family of 5. Linda and Andy are very nice. The place was clean. I loved the way it was decorated very rustic. We enjoyed reading the little notes left by previous guests. We were about an hour from the Grand Canyon and only 15 min from Bearizona. We made a fire at night in the fire pit and roasted marshmallows. I am already telling everyone I know to check this place out. My husband and I cant wait to take a trip there without the kids. I can't say enough how awesome this place was!

Date of Stay: 06/24/11 Review Submitted: 07/13/11

Recomiendo ampliamente este lugar si lo que buscas es pasar un tiempo relajado y desconectarte del estres y uir del calor,,,,, la temperatura estuvo genial como 17 C,,, al llegar se nos hizo un poco chica la cabaña pero al entrar y disfrutar de los alrededores nos cautivó,,,, solo al salir nos encontramos a menos de 15 mts de los alces, vimos 4,, mis niños de 3 y 2 años felices con los animales que se encontraban cerca,,, el caballo que tienen los dueños de la cabaña comia de nuestras manos y mis hijos fascinados,, dentro de la cabaña esta todo tan acojedor que no hace falta nada mas,,, (bueno lo unico que nos falto es una parrillita electrica para cocinar) encender el carbon para asar la carnita,,, todo lo que necesites tiene la cabañita,,, y aparte un excelente gusto en decoracion,,,, todo combina perfecto,,,, la recomiendo ampliamente,,, toda la familia pasamos un excelente fin de semana,,, no queriamos regresar,,, estamos esperando una cancelacion para poder volver a estar por alla,,,,.:=)

Owner response:Mucho gracias for the great review, I can understand very little of it but "excelente gusto en decoracion" and "perfecto" are words most anyone can figure out. Also thank you for signing our guest book in Spanish. We enjoyed meeting you. Linda

Great Location

Guest: Julkos (San Antonio Heights, CA, USA)
Date of Stay: 05/28/10 Review Submitted: 06/08/10

The cabin is situated between Williams and Flagstaff and is a great location for a family getaway. All over the convienences are there to make your comfortable, yet the substitution of a firepit and grill for an oven make it a "camping" experience. The cabin was clean, quiet, and the beds were comfortable. Our children (11,2,1) all loved the cabin and the horse out back. We were far enough from the railway and freeway to only hear the breeze through the trees at night. For families wanting to do more than just visit the Canyon, travel East to Bellmont and hike the Lava Tube Cave (it's about a half day hike) and visit the Sunset Crater National Park just north of Flagstaff to climb through ruins and see some of the best scenery around!

Owner response:Thank you so much for the input and great review. I think we are in an ideal spot but it's good to hear that from our guests. I think Chief is our best host, he sure does love the carrots. Glad you had so much fun & saw so much of Arizona in just a week. All the best to you, Linda

Great launching pad, great hosts

Guest: NilesAZ (Scottsdale, AZ)
Date of Stay: 05/26/10 Review Submitted: 05/29/10

So the cabin is quaint and interesting....and the hosts couldn't be better. Andy is very friendly, great guy, and they have a really nice older horse named Chief (our daughter fell in love with him and Andy was very gracious in letting her play with him) and a sweet and playful Rottweiler named Tank. Considering that they take animals, I think this is one of the better values out there. The location is also very convenient. That being said, the one reason that the cabin didn't get five stars is partly based on my expectation: from the photos and description, I was envisioning a cabin set far back into the woods (what we were really looking for). The one limiting factor in this cute cabin is that it is perhaps several hundred feet from Route 66 and right across the street from a school and bordered by a double wide. If you don't mind these distractions, they by all means you'll find the place interesting, rustic, cute, and a really great value. And it's hard to put a valuation on how friendly and accommodating Andy is.

Hi Linda! My family of 6 stayed at Linda and Andy's cabin in August, 2009. We had a great experience. If the opportunity ever arises again to come back through, we'll definitely stay. The cabin is ideally located between the Grand Canyon, Sedona, and Flagstaff. It is easy to find and easy off/on the highway. However, you still have the rural feeling. We spent 3 nights here. It's about 45 minutes to Sedona and about an hour to the Grand Canyon (well, if the President is visiting the same day you are, hmmm, add about 2 hours to the trip:)). If you are planning to visit multiple cities, sites, in different directions, this is a great location. You can feel settled; you don't have to try and find a different motel or other lodging every night.... Also, there is something to be said to private bedrooms - If one or more want to stay up and watch tv, etc, no problem, just shut your door... Linda and Andy, thanks again for your hospitality...

we had a great & relaxing experience. BBQ's outside, sat by the fire, saw elk, hiked, & drove to the Grand Canyon from our little get away cabin. No cook stove meant no work for me! We will be back.

Owner response:Thank you Scott & for the great review. Glad you could come up & get out of the heat. So far there has been no complaints about the lack of a stove. I hope you can make it back up here this summer. all the best to you guys, Linda
