Once you're fueled, lace up your boots for a hike on the property's 4 acres of pristine land or open up to gate to discover the Tonto National Forest.

When you need a break from nature's elements, retreat inside this modern-yet-rustic home! Tongue and groove ceilings, Bruce oak hardwood floors, and large windows are just a few highlights of the interior design. Relaxation comes easy in the airy living room, featuring sumptuous leather furnishings. On chilly evenings, feel free to build a fire in the wood-burning stove.

Let the kids get all of their energy out playing in the treehouse and complementing swings.

In the morning, wake up with a refreshing shower in the updated bathrooms, both stocked with fresh towels, and shower essentials.

You'll truly feel the secluded at the property, with neighbors found to only one side.

Hiking is available right on the property, but for more trails and scenic views, head to Tonto Natural Bridge State Park or locate the Arizona Trail, both located less than 30 miles away. The property is also within a 10 minute drive to Water Wheel hike! The anglers of the group will find their fair share of fun at Green Valley Park.
