About this property
Kohl's Ranch Creekside Cabin / Fishing, Hiking, Swimming - Adventure Awaits!
This cabin is in the heart of the Tonto National Forest in Kohl's Ranch, and is the first private cabin on the road. You can hear the year round sounds of Tonto Creek, along with the sounds of the breezes whistling through all the massive Ponderosa Pines surrounding the property. It has an open floor plan for family and friends, especially with two large covered decks to hang out. 15 minutes to the top of the Mogollon Rim, and less than 5 min from hiking trails and Tonto Creek Fish Hatchery.
This wonderful cabin boasts of a yard with 4 apple trees and beautiful ivy. It is perfect for a family of 6. Bedroom 1 and Bedroom 2 come equipped with Queen Sized beds. Bedroom 3 has a twin / twin bunk bed. There is also a queen size air mattress for your convenience, as well, just in case you bring a few extra people. The living room is very spacious and comfortable, which includes 5 reclining couch seats.
The outside patio is a great place to eat meals or sit and listen to the creek. The front deck has a chair swing and other seating to relax and experience the stary night sky. Access to the creek is directly across the road.
The cabin includes a BBQ, fire pit and yard games for your enjoyment. Within walking distance, there is fishing, hiking, cliff jumping, creek swimming, and horseback riding. Kohl's Ranch Resort is directly across the creek, which includes a restaurant and bar. This cabin is NOT associated with the resort.

The host requires you complete the following before checking out:
Take out the trash
Return the keys
You must take your trash with you, since the HOA does not permit a trash service.
Turn off all wall heaters. Set the Mini-Split to 61 degrees during the winter/spring and 80 degrees during the summer.
Check-out is at 11am, so the cleaners have enough time before the next guest moves in.
