At the Knotty Pine, we believe in minimizing our impact in the world. The home is very energy efficient, using all LED lighting throughout the house, being fully insulated, having ceiling fans in every room, using the most energy efficient windows and doors available, and using a smart thermostat to decrease energy usage. We want to be a good steward of our beautiful environment in Williams!

The Knotty Pine features 3 bedrooms, including an adjustable California king primary suite, a queen guest bedroom, full size bunk beds with an additional twin trundle in the 3rd bedroom and a twin-sized sleeper sofa in the den (and great kid hangout). Our home is beautifully decorated in a modern farmhouse style, keeping our guest's relaxation and comfort in mind. The Knotty Pine is fully equipped with quartz countertops, farmhouse sink, top of the line stainless steel appliances, cook-ready kitchen, newly carpeted bedrooms with hardwood floors running throughout the rest of the home.

For those who prefer peace and quiet, imagine yourself snuggling up next to the fireplace and picture window with the beautiful juniper and pine forest in your backyard. The primary suite window presents a beautiful, picturesque view of Bill Williams Mountain and the national forest. Many times, you can encounter herds of deer running through our backyard during one of Arizona's famous sunsets.

Downtown Williams is less than 2 miles away and offers a variety of restaurant experiences such as wine and beer tasting rooms, original Route 66 bars, and a multitude of other eateries suitable for every palate.

Very comfortable property.

Perfect Stay in Williams!

The home was so comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, and staying here was the perfect alternative to the Polar Express Experience without staying on site. The house was decorated for Christmas (which the kids loved) and everything was cabin-cozy. Couches and beds were comfortable, we will totally stay here again!

Our family has called Arizona home since 2000 and has owned property in Northern Arizona for decades. We love this part of the state and all the different experiences it offers—from the Grand Canyon, Route 66 and beautiful mountain scenery to hiking, skiing and snow play, golf, fishing, wildlife, great restaurants and countless family activities.
