About this property

Serene Log Cabin: Mountains, 5 Acres, Near Downtown & Snowbowl!

Elk Horn Cabin is a stunning 2600 ft² log cabin nestled on 5 acres of secluded, tranquil grounds with sweeping views of the San Francisco Peaks; Surrounded by thousands of tall, whispering Ponderosa Pines. Winding paths lead to children's play areas, sledding hills and wandering adventures!

* Private access to the Flagstaff Urban Trail System
* 10 min to downtown Flagstaff
* Finished basement w/ Air Hockey, Ping Pong & Shuffleboard and more

TPT #21478743
Guest access
The entire cabin and its 5 acres of land are yours to enjoy!
Other things to note
* The cabin is extremely close to downtown - but is tucked away at the very end of a 2 mile unpaved road. The last 300 yards of road that leads to the driveway is a hill that CAN REQUIRE 4WD OR SNOW CHAINED TIRES between the months of November - March. If you rent between November and March and arrive in a Toyota Prius - you will still be responsible for finding a way to vacate the property at the end of your stay if it snows!!

* The cabin is a hand-built 30 year old log cabin deep in the woods. The cabin is completely modernized - and treated regularly for pests. However, the amount of nature outside the cabin walls has a way of influencing the amount of nature that occasionally gets in.

* Water at the cabin is supplied by a private cistern fed by a state of the art potable rain-water catchment system that converts all the water at the cabin to purified, drinkable water. The capacity of the tank is ample, but can and will run out of water with long-term excessive water use. Short showers are especially appreciated - as we have a super high-efficiency tankless water heater that delivers hot water within 30 seconds of demand.

* There are two security cameras outside. At the front door and on the side of the house pointing at the driveway. These cameras are used solely to protect our guests and our home. Footage is NEVER viewed unless an incident occurs.

* Our property backs up to State Land and the Flagstaff Urban Trail System. A short hike down our property and you can access the trail system and explore it all the way to downtown.

* Elk Horn Cabin is an heirloom family home that is deeply loved and cared for. It is not owned or managed by a big company making huge rental profits. Please care for the home as you would your own so that our children - and their children - can continue to enjoy it for generations to come.

Beautiful Cabin
This cabin is so beautiful and clean. We loved being out in the woods and able to visit Sedona and the Grand Canyon. Beds and sheets were very comfortable.

Only place we will ever stay again, in Flagstaff.
We had an absolutely wondering ski trip to Flagstaff, thanks to this cabin. It had so much more than we expected (full kitchen - we never even went out to eat, as we could make everything there), wine fridge, the most comfortable beds, game room downstairs, huge TVs to log into your apps with, amazing fire pit with tons of seating outside, comfortable furniture, high tech/push button lighting/fans/alarm/doors/etc which was very cool. You can tell the entire place was gutted and redone to an immaculate woods cabin feel with some nice modern touches (master bath was amazing). Huge loft area for kids to get away from the adults :-), several patios with doors leading inside, and 5 acres of perfectly manicured pine trees to explore in (we were lucky and had 6” of snow or so, so our boys loved using the sleds that they provided!!). Couldn’t imagine staying anywhere else - and we will be back for sure!

Cozy Cabin in the Woods
Close enough to town, but far enough into the woods to be more secluded and have a true camp like experience. House was clean and stocked with more than we expected (coffee, seasonings, etc.) We we’re pleasantly surprised. The basement was a hit with our teenagers! Bridget was a great host, very responsive! We left a few items there and she shipped them back to us right away. Will be back 5 star!

Best Cabin I’ve Stayed At
This place was amazing. It has everything you can possibly need and then some. It was very clean and the decor was just right with not a lot of clutter. There are several places to hang out and that was perfect because the kids can go downstairs and it’s noise proof :-) I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars because it’s just exceptional. Bridget is very responsive and was so kind to leave us a welcome basket with a personal note. This was such a nice touch. The outdoor area was great for hanging out by the fire and letting the kids play in the swings and ropes course. We will definitely be back! We enjoyed our stay here and it was the relaxing vacation we had hoped for and more. Thank you Elk Horn Cabin until next time!

5 stars isnt enough!
The home is impeccably cared for and designed beautifully. Decor is comfortable and homey but with a luxurious feel, no clutter anywhere. Best equipped kitchen of any rental so far, with plenty of nice plates and anything you need to cook, bake and BBQ. My kids adored the selection of Keurig pods and I loved the butlers pantry for storing all our food out of sight. We had evenings around the firepit and games and movies in the TV room. The house is sized so well, plenty of room for everyone and space to tuck in, away from the family for a quick nap or book time. I could go on and on..... like the nesting chickadees on the patio and another in the trees. We even had a rare porcupine sighting one night. Nature loves the neighborhood- plenty of deer and squirrels too. All the perks of a remote location, but you are minutes from downtown! Awesome hikes right out the door. Lastly, but most importantly, there is Bridget, the lovely hostess. She left a sweet little snack and gift basket along with a great little book of thinks to do and information on the house. We messaged back and forth a bit, and I found her to be responsive, friendly and capable of solving any issues, though we had an issue free stay. I had mentioned that a makeup mirror would be helpful in the bathroom and she let me know they have already added them!!! Thanks Bridget! We will be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About the host

Hosted by Bridget

Host profile image
My name is Bridget, my husband Aaron and our family live in Cave Creek, AZ. Over the years we fell in love with Flagstaff through stays in other beautiful rental properties. We also looooove to travel in general, and have had wonderful accommodations all over the world.

Why they chose this property

The cabin is just two hours from our home in the Valley, and offers a wonderful escape for our family. During the winter we can go from 60 degrees to enjoying the snow in no time, sipping hot cocoa and watching families of Elk pass through our front yard. During the summer it's an easy drive to cooler temperatures.

What makes this property unique

There are not many log cabins on 5 acres in Flagstaff city limits. The acreage itself is just magical - with nothing but pine trees and mountains as far as you can see. We completely modernized and remodeled the Cabin to offer an experience for our guests that incorporates only the very best of what we've enjoyed in our travels - with our own special touches like top of the line mattresses, linens, and finishes throughout the home.
