Go swimming, fishing, hiking, biking, fossil hunting, crystal collecting, spelunking, off-roading and horseback riding right near the cabin or simply relax on the large deck or by the fire!

Beautiful Place!

Great location to escape from valley heat. Everything was as advertised Host was responsive (even had new coffee pot delivered when i had trouble with the one here). And our dogs loved it (most important with a dog friendly property), they give it 5 stars.

Family time

Great property next to a resort we've stayed at previously, but they dont allow pets. The cabin has flexible sleeping with two nice bedrooms plus room for the kids all over. The provided coffee was a treat. Nice experience over all.

Great cabin getaway

Nice cabin really close to Phoenix for a quick getaway from the heat. Tonto creek is just infront of cabin maybe 60 feet away we caught trout and crayfish the water was cold and very nice clear for the most part.
