About this property
Rustic, Artsy Studio w/ Desert Panoramic Views
Your cozy retreat to this relaxing and private studio to seek a reprieve from the urban life.
Designed for solo travelers or couples, this studio’s small square footage has been carefully remodeled to utilize the space efficiently. Window views of high desert landscape, mountains and a seasonal river will make you feel like you’re gazing into a painting.
This recently remodeled studio provides single travelers or couples with everything they could want in a place for rest and relaxation, while simultaneously serving as a perfect hub for traveling to various natural attractions within AZ.
Pack lightly as you will find that this studio provides everything you need from kitchenware, table for eating/working, a murphy/wall bed, 3/4 bathroom, washer/dryer combo, 65” smart tv and so forth.
Spend your days breathing in the fresh air while looking out over the flowing river and colorful desert sunsets, then later gazing up at the desert sky’s star constellations. Mornings can be spent enjoying coffee overlooking the river while the sun rises and listening to the diverse songs of local birds. For the more adventurous there are countless outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, horseback riding, and ATV riding that can all be done within walking distance or a short trip to trailheads.
Smart TV installed in the house and capable of streaming any of your subscribed app services such as Netflix, Disney +, Amazon Prime, etc.
*River is seasonal and is dry up to 6-9 months out of the year. We can provide updates on the river status for guests. It is traditionally running during Winter time
**There is a main house and guest house on the property that are both available for short term renting as well and can be booked through Airbnb. This can be suitable for larger groups that would like to travel together but have their own space. Listings for both below:

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Garrett Huffman
Husband and father of two children. Owner of an environmental consulting business and real estate investor. Traveling to new locations while experiencing the personable comforts of other Airbnb host homes has been a wonderful opportunity for our family and has inspired us to share ours as well.
Why they chose this property
This property was purchased by my grandparents in the 1960's and I was able to purchase in 2020 to keep it in our family . This space was a former set studio and renovated with all the features to be self sufficient. Born and raised in Black Canyon City for about 20 years, this community holds a special place for me and my childhood. Most of my and my wife's family reside in this region of Arizona and is a community we visit multiple times a year. When I was able to acquire the capital, I knew I wanted to invest into keeping this property in our family. Short-term renting became appealing to be able to bring travelers into this community to boost it economically while advertising it's rural charm and convenient travel location relative to Arizona's natural scenic treasures. 
What makes this property unique
This is a small, but fun space for one to to two people. I loved remodeling this space from being an art studio. After adding a bathroom into it, we knew we could convert the studio into providing everything a stand alone house would have in it. We enjoyed the challenge of purchasing compact and mobile appliances that allowed for different types of cooking to install a Murphy/wall bed to create options for extra space. We were able to retain and integrate artistic elements into such as the bathroom sink being a former sewing machine stand and using a Mexican inspired shower tile. We personally love staying at this space and hope you do too.
