Cares fall away with each bend in the road as you wind your way down south Highway 89 through boulders and forest. The cabin is 5 miles, 10 minutes, from front door to courthouse square. Psychologically, it feels further away as town gives way to the elements, mountain horizons, and starry skies. Settle into the small community of Ponderosa Park, altitude 5700, homesteaded 1884.
The cabin is intimate at 750 square feet, an open floor plan with high ceilings, many windows, two bedrooms, covered porch and fenced backyard. The design is simple, artistic, cozy and familial.
Many ways to fill a day: light a fire in the fireplace and share stories, grill on the back deck, swing on the front porch under cover of the rain, cook in a well-stocked kitchen, high-speed wifi and tv in living room, hike the surrounding Prescott National Forest and Indian Creek.
Or make your way easily into Prescott for amenities and amusement. Come sit awhile...
Minimum 7-night stay during summer months (June-August).
