About this property

Verde River Lodge: Riverside Cabin Luxury with Hot Tub, Games & Wild Beauty

Tucked along the banks of the East Verde River, Verde River Lodge is a place where the world slows down and nature invites you in. Surrounded by two private acres of forest, water, and wildflowers, this five-bedroom log-style retreat blends the warmth of a classic cabin with the polish of modern luxury—making it ideal for family gatherings, friend getaways, or simply trading screen time for starlight.

Spend the day fly fishing just steps from the deck, catching crawdads in the shallows, or geode hunting along the riverbank. Come evening, gather around the fire pit or slip into the hot tub beneath a sky full of stars. Indoors, a cozy great room welcomes card games, shared meals, and good conversation, while the game room keeps everyone entertained with ping pong, poker, and air hockey.

The wraparound deck becomes your favorite spot for coffee or cocktails, and the fully equipped kitchen—with gas appliances and plenty of prep space—makes feeding a crowd a pleasure. Whether you're exploring or unwinding, Verde River Lodge offers space, solitude, and a little bit of mountain magic.

⦁ 3,600 sq. ft. across 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms
⦁ Great room with rustic charm and modern finishes
⦁ Spacious kitchen with gas appliances, island, and dining space
⦁ Game room with ping pong, poker, air hockey, and arcade games
⦁ Central A/C and heating, hotel-quality linens, and thoughtful amenities

⦁ Horseshoe pit, cornhole, bocce ball, and grass soccer field
⦁ Level 2 EV charger for eco-conscious travelers
⦁ Seasonal wild blackberries and geode hunting along the bank

Before Verde River Lodge, you may have been craving connection—to nature, to family, to the feeling of slowing down. Here, surrounded by the quiet hum of the river and laughter echoing through the trees, you’ll rediscover what it means to unplug and just be.
