The Forest Cabin

A cabin in the forest, in the truest sense

If the Groom Creek Getaway is the gathering place, The Forest Cabin is the hideaway. It sits deeper in the trees, where the only thing in every window is more forest, and the loudest sound is wind in the ponderosas. Pull in, drop your bags, and feel the high country do its quiet work.

Inside, a stone wood-burning fireplace and a pair of deep recliners make the great room the heart of the place. The full kitchen — dishwasher, coffee maker, and all — flows into the living area and its smart TV. Three bedrooms hold five beds in all, with a full bath, an in-unit washer and dryer, and central air for warm afternoons.

Hot tub on the deck, stars overhead

The deck is the whole point. There’s a private hot tub ringed by pines, lounge chairs for an afternoon with a book, and a covered porch that’s perfect whether it’s a summer evening or a fresh winter snow. Groom Creek Loop and Spruce Mountain are practically at the door, with Lynx Lake, Watson Lake, and downtown Prescott a short drive away.

A perfect ★5.0 rating says the rest. Come disappear into the trees for a while.

Please note: this is a pet-free, smoke-free cabin.
