About this property

Quaint Cabin With Spectacular Views Of The Granite Dells, Great Hiking/Kayaking!

A spacious covered deck affords you a front-row seat to this 14-acre boulder and pine creation, right out your back door. Two new Trade air conditioning and furnaces installed in February 2023. The east-facing deck is made for outdoor entertaining. It has a built-in propane grill and a tiled buffet. Lots of comfortable seating makes this the place to relax on a warm summer evening with a glass of wine or cool winter morning with a cup of coffee. An 8ft. slider brings you into an open living room. This space has vaulted ceilings with light knotty pine and a beautiful stone fireplace. These are surrounded by Lazy Boy recliners and attractive dark upholstered couch and love seat. Whether you are staring dreamily into the fire or watching a program on the cable flat-screen TV, it's hard to get up and do anything else.The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots, pans, slow cooker, mixer, coffee pot, toaster, can opener, blender,microwave, and dishwasher. A large dining room table makes meals easy and accommodating. Boulder Cabin sleeps 5 with a queen in each bedroom and a sofa (not a sofa sleeper} in the living room. Wonderful views surprise you out of the bedroom windows. The master bath is very special with a walk in dual head shower, and separate toilet room. I never close the blinds, because the 14 acres of large boulders and trees, is a strong deterrent to to any casual person passing by.
Both bedrooms share a covered deck for bird watching or bat spotting. A picnic table makes for fun outdoor dining to feed kids. The hall bath with tub/shower combination is convenient for guests.
Internet and washer/dryer bring modern touches to the cozy cabin in the rocks.
Keep an open mind as you drive through Canyon View Trailer Park, as it is quite an eyesore. The Fillingim's have owned that park and all of the land back into the canyon for many years. They raised 5 children in the stone house on the hill above and behind the park. Two of the grown kids have built beautiful homes behind the electronic gate just beyond my cabin. I have owned this cabin since 2005. I feel totally safe when I am at the cabin alone, while never having had anything vandalized or stolen. Many times the residents in the park have helped me with one thing or another.Please keep in mind not to base my review on the trailer park as I have disclosed it completely. I must maintain a 4.8 to remain a Preferred Partner which determines my placement on the internet.
Be prepared, when you arrive because Boulder Cabin will be very special retreat for your stay in Prescott!

This is year 3 in this cabin. We love it. It’s quiet with woods behind you. If you want hustle and bustle, this isn’t the place for you. If you want quiet and peaceful, book it. The cabin has everything you need and Whiskey Row in downtown Prescott is less than 10 minutes away.

We were shocked and disappointed when we walked in to find the property had not been cleaned. The sink had dirty dishes with food left for at least a week or more. We had to wash the bedding ourselves prior to being able to go to sleep as there were no extra sheets. We had to purchase cleaning supplies, toilet paper, and air freshener since all such supplies were locked up and inaccessible. We sent photos and a message to the host and received a single response the next day asking only for clarification of what we purchased. No apology or further communication despite multiple messages. While we might recommend the property itself, I would have some serious reservations about the host and their lack of response and attention to ensuring the place is ready for the guests. We left the place cleaner than we found it. Sorry to say, we would not stay here again.
Nasty, old, egg pan that smelled horrendous.

Loved this cabin. I was in Prescott for a trail race starting at Lake Watson. You can’t beat this location. Literally 1/2 mile to the lake. The lake is absolutely gorgeous and the accommodations were fantastic.

Nice Weekend

The home provides everything you need for a comfortable stay. Very clean, well-stocked, full-size amenities in bathrooms. The neighborhood was a bit sketchy but all-in-all, the trailer park folks were quiet. I do not recommend for folks with mobility issues as there are steps to enter/exit. The back deck is a 10!

Better than described

This was a delightful vacation spot. Everything provided except food and toothbrush. Linda described the RV park at the roadside edge, it is a bit congested. However, once you go a few more feet, the cabin sits in its own secluded spot. Mountains and wilderness from all windows! And the doggie yard was a special bonus.

Wonderful cabin - great views - convenient to everything

Very thoughtfully and efficiently designed cabin that seems bigger than the square footage would suggest. Great views of the Granite Dells out the back deck. Super-convenient to downtown and Watson Lake; easy drive to Lynx and Goldwater Lakes. Nice hiking trail about 1/4 mile from house (off Granite Dells Rd.). Don't be put off by the trailer park at the street entrance. The neighborhood is quiet and the cabin is set back from the trailers, very private.

Granite Dells Quaint Cabin

This little cabin was very comfortable. It has everything you need for your stay. It is a very quiet location and has beautiful views from the deck in which to enjoy your morning coffee or just sitting and relaxing. If sitting on the deck at night you may hear coyotes in the distance. Did not see any wildlife but did enjoy many birds including a hummingbird which flew up close to me. There is a hummingbird feeder hanging on the deck which is empty and I was tempted to make some food for them while there. I feed hummingbirds where I live and they are my favorite little birds. The beds were very comfortable and quiet ceiling fans in each bedroom. Didn't do any cooking while there but appeared to have everything you would need if you did. Is not far from downtown for restaurant dining and close to a market and a CVS drug store and some fast food locations if so needed. A highlight for us was a short drive to a Dairy Queen for an evening ice cream. If you are wanting a very quiet and peaceful location with great views this it it. If visiting friends who live very close by again we would not hesitate staying here again.

This Place Rocks

As usual, the place was spotless. The kitchen has everything you need and more. The back patio is the gem of the property. Other than sleeping, it’s where we spent most of our time. It looks into a granite hillside with a lake on the other side of the hill. It’s so quiet. You can’t hear any road noise, but you may hear a duck or goose. The worst part of our trip was leaving to go home. We’ll be back for sure.

Home-y Vibes

The cabin/home was wonderful. Bedrooms had their own bathroom which was nice and walked out to back patio. I loved sitting outside (before it got too hot!) and allowing my dog out in the fenced yard. No need to reach out to Linda during our stay, notes around the house helped if we weren’t sure how to work something. Definitely would stay here again as it had everything I look for when traveling and traveling with my pup.

Soccer tournament getaway

Rather than drive back and forth from Phoenix for our son’s soccer tournament we decided to make a weekend out of it. This was a perfect little cabin for our family. It was a very short drive to our games and we had all the comforts of home. Prescott greeted us with snow and warmed up in time for play time. We loved the fire place, well equipped kitchen and beautiful views! Thank you for sharing your cute cabin with us!
