Grand Canyon / Williams / Route 66 Historic Escape

We invite you to stay at our comfortable, inviting, and historic home, built in 1900. We are located in the historic residential district of the scenic mountain town of Williams, Arizona off the nostalgic Route 66.
Our home is decorated with antique furnishings and items of the historic era. House comfortably sleeps 8, with 3 themed bedrooms. The Wild West Room hosts a queen size bed, the Scarlet Room a full size bed, the Route 66 Room a trundle bed which converts into a king or 2 twin beds and the living room has a queen sofa pull out bed. There are two full baths supplied with towels and basic amenities. The kitchen is equipped with both basic and small appliances, pantry items, full place settings, silverware, and cookware. Home features a comfortable living room and dining area, a small office with a library containing books and information on the Grand Canyon, historical Williams, Route 66, Arizona, and the Wild West.
Our home has an inviting veranda front porch for viewing the stunning Arizona sunsets and looking out into the spectacular starry moonlit nights and a back patio w/outside grill and chiminea for a cozy fire.
We are 55 minutes from the breathtaking and enchanting Grand Canyon.
Williams is home to the Grand Canyon Railway and its winter Polar Express which runs from November thru the first part of January. We are approximately 60 minutes from Oak Creek Canyon and Village and the colorful red rock town of Sedona. We are about 60 miles east of the intriguing Grand Canyon Caverns near Seligman, AZ and about 50 minutes from the Hopi and Navajo Nations where you can purchase Native American arts and crafts and visit their ancient village and ruins.
We are within minutes of fishing, hunting, hiking, cycling, swimming, golfing, snow skiing, sledding and exploring.
Our home is 1 block from the Kaibab National Forest where you can take scenic drives to view wildlife in their natural habitat or hike and rock climb in the wilderness area of Sycamore Canyon. We are minutes away from beautiful Bill Williams Mountain at over 9,000 ft. in elevation where you can sled, or snow ski on our uncrowded quaint hometown ski run.
Our home is located within walking distance to the historic Route 66, where you can dine in local charming restaurants, visit our hometown brewery or our wine tasting lounge and take a horse and carriage ride thru downtown Williams with its old historic saloons, gift and craft shops. Williams is minutes from Bearizona, the Deer Farm, Canyon Coaster Adventure Park, and about an hour and half from the historic ghost town of Jerome, AZ.
