SECLUDED COTTAGE IN THE FOREST
Escape to a peaceful, private forest cabin on 10 privately owned acres within a larger 25-acre fenced forest enclosure, offering an unusually spacious and private setting in the Kaibab National Forest, about an hour from the Grand Canyon. Surrounded by towering Ponderosa pines and open mountain views, this free-standing one-bedroom cottage at Historic Wrigley Ranch offers true privacy, quiet nights, and direct access to Northern Arizona’s natural beauty.
Perfect for couples seeking a romantic retreat, a quiet getaway, or an outdoor adventure basecamp.
You’ll enjoy expansive views of Spring Valley and Mt. Sitgreaves, abundant wildlife, and some of the darkest night skies in Arizona. The Cottage is located directly between Flagstaff & Williams, AZ, virtually at the center of all Northern Arizona sights and attractions!
