Come escape the crowds and chaos! Our homesteader’s cabin is nestled on a 400 acre ranch with a backdrop of stunning red cliffs. The cabin has been thoughtfully appointed with everything you need plus breakfast fixings & fresh eggs from our chickens. Premium Nectar mattress w/ quality linens. Find solitude and peace as you walk our canyon and see sunsets like you've never seen. Stars abound in the night sky plus you can see the Milky Way from your porch. High speed wifi is a bonus! Lyman's Place is an original homesteader's one room cabin. It features the original wood plank floors, rough sawn lumber beams and paneling, as well as hand finished cob walls. It functions as a cute and cozy studio, with the entire living, kitchen, dining, and sleeping quarters in one room. It's ideal for traveling couples or adventurous singles. We provide simple breakfast items for you like granola, eggs, fruit, english muffins & juice. We also provide tea, coffee, and essentials like oil, spices, sweeteners, pantry staples, and convenience foods. There is a well stocked kitchenette which includes all the necessities for cooking. You will have a mini-fridge, double ceramic hot plate, convection oven, coffee maker, toaster, blender, and food processor. There are plenty of dishes, pots & pans, & cooking tools to help you make that perfect meal. We also offer essentials like soap, paper towels, tin foil, etc. We try to be as thoughtful as possible in preparing the space to accommodate you. You will have clean, comfortable linens, extra blankets, towels, washcloths, etc. Lyman's Place has a full bathroom, however, only showering is recommended. The current hot water heater is not sufficient to fill the bathtub. You will have enough hot water for about an 8-10 minute shower or longer, depending which shower head setting you are using. You will also need to wait about 30 minutes in between showers for the tank to heat up again, so you may want to plan accordingly. We do have two kayaks with life jackets available for off site use (we have two local reservoirs that are just 10 minutes away that are excellent for kayaking). You will need to have a vehicle suitable for transporting the kayaks or we can take them to the reservoir for you and pick them up for an additional $50 fee. You are also welcome to take them down to Sand Hollow Reservoir for the day but you would need to have an appropriate vehicle to transport them in (pickup truck or large SUV will the seats able to fold down). Your privacy is respected on our ranch. You have your own private cabin, bath, porch, and reserved parking area. You will have access to a shared yard, firepit area, adjacent treehouse, and garden when in season.You will also have access to hike around our private canyon, but please follow all host rules and recommendations before doing so. AN IMPORTANT NOTE TO OUR GUESTS: The North Rim of the Grand Canyon is closed from December 1st-May 15. The only ways to visit the GC during this time is through the "Desert View" or South Rim. Both of these locations are approximately 4 hours from from the cabin. During the open season from May 15 to December 1st we are 2 hours from the north rim. We are available for assistance, questions, directions, etc. We are happy to visit and say hello. We may build a campfire in the shared firepit area and invite you to an impromptu concert from our host or to roast marshmallows. (We generally use the fire pit from March through November) We love to visit but of course respect your privacy and space as well. NOTE: The cabin is in "Cane Beds, AZ", 30 minutes away from "Fredonia, AZ". AirBnb automatically sets the location as "Fredonia" because we share the same zip code. We live in a safe and respectful rural neighborhood. Neighbors here watch out for each other and we will do the same for you. We have lived here for 20 years and cannot remember a single crime being committed in the neighborhood. Emergency responders are here within minutes of being called if necessary. There are cows, horses, and mini-farms and ranches all over. We hope you love the beauty of our rural area.

We live in a rural area on a ranch and farm and have many animals and pets. Some are penned in and some free-range like our chickens and dogs. You may hear our dogs barking in the middle of the night or a rooster crow. You may hear coyotes laughing and yelping. Our home is located about 100 feet from the cabin and our children often place outside. There is a potential for noise if you are sitting outside but we encourage our children to be quiet and respectful of guests that are outside. We also have a few vehicles outside in the shared parking areas. Please be aware of this. There is also another Airbnb cabin located about 100 feet away from the cabin, although guests have their own firepits and private outdoor spaces We welcome you as our guests and try to be as accommodating as possible. However, farm life happens...:) Please try to be patient if unexpected issues arise during your stay. We are always open for recommendations and comments/suggestions and strive to offer our guests a wonderful experience here.
