Today’s post is going to vary a little in that while I will still be talking about AZ cabins my primary focus is going to be on some of the activities you can enjoy while staying in an Arizona cabin. For example, there are cabins that are available to rent in the Lake Meade area. This is all well and good, and I am sure that there are plenty of very exciting things to do outdoors (fishing, hiking, water sports, etc.). However, if you are a golf enthusiast this does you no good whatsoever. As a matter of fact, most of the golf lovers that I know would go through severe withdraws if they were on a vacation where they could not get at least 9 holes in. Never fear, your handy AZ cabin guide has a solution. How about taking advantage of some of the Las Vegas golf vacation packages.

The beauty of this is that while you are staying in your scenic, quiet AZ cabin, you can enjoy the excellence of Las Vegas golf courses with only a short drive (no pun intended). You can run into Las Vegas for a fun filled day of golf, and then drive back out to your quiet, peaceful cabin in the Lake Meade area. I just don’t think it gets any better than that.

Have any of you ever tried this little endeavor? If you have I would appreciate it if you would leave a comment and tell me how it worked out for you.

Now get out there and enjoy AZ!

AZ Cabins

If you have been following this blog for any length of time, you know that I typically profile Arizona cabins that one can go and spend a weekend at. This week’s installment varies a little from the standard format. While I was conducting my research for the article, I came a across a site that offers something that I have only read about…modular log cabins. There is a little company in Payson Arizona that produces modular log cabins. Now I have written about plenty of Payson Arizona cabins, but never one that was on wheels. It appears that you can order your custom made Payson cabin from Classic Log Cabins, and they simply deliver it to you when it is ready. I like it. If you are in the market for an AZ cabin, you should check them out.

Keeping with my decision to deviate from my normal writing this evening, I have decided to also profile the Majestic Mountain Inn in Payson Arizona. While this is not a cabin in Payson AZ, it still has that rustic look and feel of cabin living. The inn offers a full range of amenities to its guests, and still allows the residents to enjoy that cabin fell while staying in the community of Payson AZ. One of the nice features that I particularly liked was the gas fireplaces and Jacuzzis that you can get in some of the rooms. Additionally, the Inn sits within walking distance of one of Payson’s newest restaurants. Take the time to stop by and visit the folks at the Inn. While it is not a Payson AZ cabin, I am sure you won’t even be able to tell once you are checked in.

Flagstaff Cabins

I have said it before, and I will say it again, there are many wonderful cabins, cottages, and lodges to visit in the great state of Arizona. Every time I think I have found my favorite site and location, a new one emerges. Today I am going to tell you about Flagstaff Arizona cabins that are simply beautiful. Comfi Cottages of Flagstaff are the ideal place foe a weekend getaway. These unique Flagstaff cabins are styled after cottages that were prevalent in the 1920’s…very quaint. Additionally, these cozy AZ cabins come with a full range of accommodations that will help you slide right into your vacation routine and not leave you wanting for anything.

One of the other bonuses to the location of these AZ cabins is that they are located close to downtown Flagstaff which allows you to enjoy the historic features and attractions of the city without a long drive. If you have never been to Flagstaff it is certainly worth the visit. My family loves, and can’t wait to get back!

This week I have spent some time looking for new AZ cabins that I have not reviewed in the past. I have to tell you, I am surprised at the number of cabins and lodges that exist in Arizona. I never have a problem finding new AZ cabin facilities to write about. That makes my blogging easy!

Today we are going to be talking about to new AZ cabin providers – The Northwoods Resort (which and Moonridge Lodge and Cabins, both of which are located in Pinetop, AZ.

The Northwoods Resort is one of those ideal AZ cabins that is located in the heart of Arizona’s White Mountains. The cabins they provide are all newly remodeled and have a quaint Bavarian style to them. They have cabins that are suited to accommodate most sized groups, and the scenery is breathtaking. They are open all year around and (knowing that part of the state) they are a joy to visit as well.

The other AZ cabin outfit we are going to discuss today is the Moonridge Lodge and Cabins. This is another rustic set of cabins that is nestled in the great White Mountains of Arizona. As a matter of fact Moonridge cabins is located in the same part of the mountain complex as Alpine AZ cabins we have written about before. The Moonridge cabins offer large and small cabins as well, with a size to fit almost any group. Additionally, they offer a pet friendly environment and they offer their guests a free Thursday night if they stay Monday through Wednesday.

Today I am going to talk a little about TheFlagStaffCabin.com. No, it is not a typographical error, the name is, in fact, a single word. This AZ cabin is located near Flagstaff AZ, and provides a full range of vacation amenities and activities for the whole family regardless of the season. This AZ cabin is the epitome of what an AZ log cabin should look like. As a matter of fact, the owners even took the picture for their site in the winter with snow all over – very cabinesque. The cabin rates are very reasonable – $225 per night (unless you stay on a holiday and then the rate jumps to $260). If you get a chance to visit this Arizona cabin, please come back and tell us about your experience.

One of the other popular cabin locations that I have heard about, but never been to is that of Gatlinburg. I have read online that there are many romantic Gatlinburg cabin rentals but I have not had a great deal of time to research them. Have any of you been to Gatlinburg? If so, did you like it?

Hope you found this helpful. Enjoy your Arizona cabin !

AZ Cabins

Today we are going to take the time to review a couple of our favorite locations. Our two cabin locations that we are going to review are AZ cabins that are located in the communities of Payson AZ and Eager AZ. Both of these communities are very similar in climate and scenery and there are a wide variety of Payson cabins and Eager cabins to choose from on your next family vacation.

The Eager AZ cabin facility that we will be looking at is Coronado Trail Cabins. Coronado Trail Cabins boast cabins that are clean, smoke-free, and they come with fully equipped kitchens. If you have a family the size of mine (there are ten of us) you quickly learn to appreciate amenities such as an in cabin kitchen. Additionally, these AZ cabins have ample access to the abundant wildlife that is native to the Arizona Mountains. The other nice thing about these AZ cabins is that they are reasonably priced with cabins starting at $80 per night. With the top price for their cabins ending up right around $160 per night, you can spend the evening in the beautiful Eager AZ Mountains for what it would cost you to stay in a modest hotel room in the Phoenix area.

The other AZ cabin rental outfit I wanted to discuss is a cabin and lodge facility located in Payson AZ. The Grey Hackle Lodge is another nice AZ cabin that is available for rental by families on vacation in Arizona. The Grey Hackle Lodge is ideally located an hour from the Phoenix Metropolitan area, which allows for families to spend a day shopping in Scottsdale or Tempe, and then head back to the mountains to spend the evening. The Grey Hackle Lodge/Cabins are located in the Christopher Creek area of Payson, near the Mogollon Rim. Again, these cabins can be had for about the cost of an average hotel in the Phoenix or Scottsdale area, but the environment and ambiance will be worth the trip.

The Timberwolf Pines cabins is one of the many Payson Cabins that are available in Arizona. The Timberwolf Pines establishment is one of those AZ cabins that are located near the scenic and popular town of Greer AZ, and provide a full range of vacation amenities. Timberwolf Pines cabins bill themselves as being a newer establishment in the Christopher Creek / Payson area, so even if you have been in an AZ cabin in this area before, it may be well worth your time to visit the Payson area again for a quiet weekend getaway. Their website provides some excellent pictures of the interior and exterior of the cabin. Very nice!

Based on the information provided on the site, they have a full range of outdoor activities that are available to their guests, as do most AZ cabins. Additionally, they state there is a full range of wildlife that is in close proximity to the cabins and lodges. The cabin rates they have listed on the site begin at $135 a night.

AZ Cabins

The more time I spend looking for AZ cabin information and sites, the more I am astounded at the sheer volume of information that is available. I have already provided some excellent information on AZ cabins in the Payson area such as the cabins available at the Grey hackle Lodge. Rest assured, there is plenty more information where that came from. The subject of this week’s article is the AZ cabins that are available over at the site of “theCabinRental”. The site is put together well, and they lay out all of the advantages that their AZ cabin provides to those looking for a weekend getaway or family vacation. Additionally, if your family is looking for activities to participate in during your weekend getaway you can look into golf, fishing, and other entertainment that is provide at the casinos that are located nearby. As a matter of fact, I have been told that they offer some of the best Arizona golf packages you will find. What more could you ask for, the beauty and serenity of log cabin living, and the benefit of golf right around the corner.




The cabins are actually located in the Beaver Valley (which is a part of the Tonto National Forest). Beautiful area, with plenty of wildlife to enjoy. The cabins are located approximately 6 minutes away from Payson, which makes grocery shopping a snap. The site provides information on two cabins – The Buckskin Cabin, and the Verde Cabin. Both are reasonably priced and decent sized. Both have three bedrooms and are listed as being kid and pet friendly. If you go out and use these cabins, please consider writing us and telling us how you liked them.

AZ Cabins

We have covered a multitude of AZ cabins and lodges over the last several months, but we have yet to speak about two of the most popular spots to take an Arizona mountain vacation – Flagstaff, and Prescott. Flagstaff AZ and Prescott AZ are located close to one another and relatively close to the community of Sedona ( where we spoke about other AZ cabins). Last year my family and I were able to get up to Flagstaff and it was simply outstanding. Not overly large, but it had all the amenities we are used to. The mountains are spectacular, and the town was very nice. If you are going to Flagstaff, you want to consider staying in a Flagstaff cabin. One of the sites I found that provides information is the Coconino National Forest website. They actually rent cabins to the public that are located within the national forests, and will allow you to experience the area on a budget travel allowance. Very cool. They have several different cabins to choose from, and they all look very nice.




Prescott cabins are every bit as impressive as those in Flagstaff (or Big Bear cabins or Tahoe cabins for that matter). Prescott is another one of those must visit sites if you are coming to Arizona. It is incredibly scenic and well worth the trip. Just as in all of our other communities, there are a multitude of AZ cabins that are available to rent in this city. While I was poking around online, I found this nice little site (prescottcabinrentals.com) that actually allows cabin owners in Prescott to list their properties as being available or not. The site also allows potential renters to peruse the current inventory. The site is not designed so well, but the content is great.

Next week I may also write a couple of articles about cabins available in our sister states…cabins in Big Bear and Tahoe. We’ll see.
