About this property

Couple's Retreat on the Creek with Outdoor Spa & Fireplace

Welcome to our cozy cabin on Christopher Creek with all the amenities you expect for a relaxing mountain getaway.
Every season brings its own charm, being that our elevation is just under 6,000 feet. From the spectacular Fall colors to a Winter Wonderland of snow, and the beauty of lush landscapes in the Spring and Summer.
Our cabin offers every relaxing luxury for you to enjoy, from a beautiful wood-burning fireplace to a sunken 2-person Spa on the deck overlooking Christopher Creek. We provide all the wood you may need to stay cozy in the colder months. We also have central heat and air for your comfort. Internet and Direct TV are provided. If you can pull yourself away from the comfortable surroundings, you will find amazing hiking trails and lakes adjacent to, or within a 10 minutes drive. With this short drive to the Mogollon Rim, you will find Willow Springs Lake and Woods Canyon Lake. Bring your Kayaks and experience the peacefulness of gliding across the pristine lake surrounded by pines. Bring a picnic lunch and spend a day spotting Ospreys and Bald Eagles, which nest in the pines and fish from the lake.
The cabin offers a King size bed in the primary bedroom, a Twin-sized Trundle bed, which sleeps 2 in the 2nd Bedroom and a Queen size sleeper sofa in the Living Room. There is also a Washer/Dryer. The cabin is not child-proof, so we consider it an adults-only cabin. Although we love dogs, we also have decided to make it a dog-free space. (This is our personal cabin and we would be so sad if any damage was done to our wooden doors, floors, and furniture). The kitchen is fully furnished with all of your cooking/baking needs, spices, coffee, tea, etc. There is also a propane BBQ grill. Should you need a last minute items, the Chrisopher Creek General Store is a short walk or drive from the cabin. There are two restaurant/bars to enjoy; The Landmark, which is directly on the Creek with outdoor dining available and the Creekside Restaurant, which has live entertainment on the weekends in the warmer months. We welcome you to enjoy our beloved cabin as much as we do! It's a wonderful feeling when you can take a big breath of fresh air and relax, leaving the city behind. You will know you have arrived "at the cabin".

Location was great. Sitting outside on the deck overlooking the creek and the various animals was fabulous. Very comfortable bed. Nice kitchen with all the amenities we needed.

About the host

Hosted by Lynne Pearce

Host profile image
I love being a host because I love making my properties exactly what I expect when I travel! A visually beautiful home that is cozy, warm and inviting with all of the comforts of home, but better! I love that you will walk in and say "Wow! This is beautiful " .

Why they chose this property

Our cabin is located at the end of a quiet street. My favorite place in the warmer months is on the back deck overlooking the creek, relaxing on the oversized outdoor couch either reading or napping. I love listening to the relaxing sounds of the creek and the colorful, chirping birds. In the cooler weather, I love enjoying a roaring fire with a cup of tea or hot chocolate.

What makes this property unique

I like to think that our cabin could be featured in a "Cabin Living" magazine!
