Amazing Cabin home for large group
We had the BEST time staying at The Ponderosa Gathering Tree property for our large group. We loved that each room has its own restroom w bath/shower. The large family table on the 2nd floor was so nice for us all to eat with each other. The house is very up to date and clean. The hot tubs were such a nice touch and had towels ready for you right next to them. Our host always responded immediately via text on any questions we had. The cabin-like home feels like your out in the woods but essentially your a quick drive from grocery stores in the event you forgot anything on your trip. There are hiking trails close by and downtown Flagstaff is a quick drive if you want to go shopping or bar hopping. We absolutely loved this place and can't wait to plan another trip here again.

A celebration among the trees!
There were 19 of us and a 1 1/2 yr old toddler who stayed at the property for my parents 60th wedding anniversary celebration. It was perfectly appointed for what we needed, with plenty of room for everyone to sleep and spread out. The property manager was great with communication and we would happily stay here again. Thank you for the memories!

25th Anniversary Family & Friends Trip
Beautiful property with all the amenities you could ask for! We had several families stay with us and we had plenty of room for everyone to congregate as a group as well as spread out into smaller groups. The game room was a favorite for everyone. The hosts are great at communication and so sweet to work with. Would definitely stay here again.

Everything you need for a large group
We are a group of friends that have been traveling together with our children for the past nine years. We have stayed in many houses, and this by far was one of the best! The house easily accommodated all four families with children, and had plenty of amenities to keep them busy, including both hot tubs, and a perfectly stocked game room. The property is located right downtown and easy to access all of the downtown amenities. The property manager was super helpful, responding quickly to every inquiry. We look forward to visiting Flagstaff and this exceptional home again in the future.

North Pole Experience
We had 5 families with 11 children, this house was perfect. The rooms all having en suite accommodations made it very comfortable for each couple. The kids had a blast and all enjoyed the bunk bed and game rooms. Highly Recommend for families and friends.
