Pine, Arizona
Spring Break in our cabin that is built to accommodate you, your kids, and grandma (main floor has two bedrooms, no stairs)! Tons of space to spread out, play games, ping pong, pool, karaoke, and enjoy beautiful outdoor time on the deck and in the woods.
Description
Enjoy beautiful wooded views from inside the spacious living room with soaring chalet windows, or up close sightings of elk, deer, squirrels, and birds from the second story deck. Lots of room for family and friends’s gatherings, with inside dining seating 11, and outside dining for 10. Hiking trails are a five minute walk from the front door, or hit the Pine Trail just 3 minute drive away. Tonto Natural Bridge State Park is just 10 miles away, we love picnics there!
This is a wonderful place for family gatherings, couples' retreats, girls' trips, hiking groups, or even just the two of you for a getaway. We have lots of board games, big TVs, telescope for star gazing on the upper deck, cornhole in the clearing off the downstairs patio, ping pong, pool table, karaoke. This house is made for fun!
If you like to cook, we've got all the tools you'll need, as well as spices and baking supplies. There is a large outdoor gas grill on the front deck, say hello to neighbors as they walk by!
We love to share our home, and want you to feel at home here. Treat it like it's yours, and you will want to come back over and over.
We loved our week here! It was spacious and comfortable. Our folks are in their seventies and stayed in the bedrooms on the main level. The kids and teenagers slept downstairs. The layout was great!
Debbie is a fantastic host. She goes above and beyond getting you prepped and keeping you informed for the stay. The cabin was very nice and bigger than I anticipated. We had 5 adults a 6 year old and our dogs and never felt crowded. The house was modern and was capable of interfacing with everyone’s various entertainment systems that we brought. The internet was sufficient to have everyone’s phones connected while also allowing streaming and playing games on Xbox. There was plenty of comfortable seating in every room. The fireplace was a big hit and feeding the squirrels was my granddaughter’s favorite morning activity. Due to the weather we didn’t get much of an opportunity to enjoy the available outdoor amenities however; we look forward to using them on a future trip. Some of the entertainment equipment such as the pool table / ping pong table is a little older and worn but that didn’t impact our experience as everyone still had a blast being horrible at both. The inside of the cabin was immaculate and everything was high quality. The outside has some components that are a work in progress and I am sure once completed they will be excellent as well. My only negative comment (and this wasn’t enough of an issue for me not to book again or recommend to friends and family) is the driveway. It’s a little scary the first time or two you use it and easy to miss the first time you pull up. Overall we had a great trip and enjoyed the cabin thoroughly.
Our family could not have been more pleased with our visit to the Wandering Elk cabin! The accommodations were perfect for our group of eight. Everyone was very comfortable. This home truly has everything you might need for cooking or entertaining! The kitchen table fit our family plus two guests for our Thanksgiving dinner. The back patio was a real hit with all the bird watching, squirrel feeding, Javalina spotting and elk/deer looking. We didn't see any elk or deer from the porch, but many were seen out on the road. We truly anticipate returning to this perfect spot in the pines of Pine, AZ. Thanks to Debbie for being such a fabulous and accommodating host.
Could not have asked for a better property for our 2 families. The Wondering Elk cabin did not disappoint. We saw elk at the cabin everyday and the kids were able to sit on the patio and enjoy them. One of the most amazing experiences of our lives. If you ever get the chance, you have to try this place out, especially if you love wildlife. The accommodations were amazing and having the cracking of the fire at night was extremely peaceful. Finally, Debbie was the best host we have ever encountered!!! It was hard to write this as we would love to keep this place to ourselves. Honestly, if you are thinking about it, just hit book.
What an amazing cabin. Everything as advertised and more. There was more than enough room for the whole family and tons of wildlife to watch from the many windows. No complaints here and we are looking forward to booking for next year!!
It was a pretty good experience. A lot of the outside stuff could be cleaned a little more. We had to throughly clean the grill before we could even use it.
We were so impressed by this gorgeous home beautifully situated amongst the pine trees. The owner, Debbie goes over the top with accommodations. she provides every last detail to make your stay the most accommodating and relaxing experience from a fully stocked kitchen, games in the basement, Propane fire pit outside for making s'mores, and a TV with streaming service. Debbie is so in tune with her guests that she makes a welcome guide available online that details everything possible about what is included in the home. She does an outstanding job of communicating via email and/or phone. This is by far, the best host we have ever encountered. Thank you Debbie!
My husband and I were looking for the perfect place to escape the heat and just enjoy nature and we definitely found it at The Wandering Elk Cabin!!!! This home is absolutely beautiful inside and out! We enjoyed watching the javelinas in the evening from the deck (it faces into the stunning ponderosa pines), enjoyed watching the resident squirrel “Sammy” while he ate off the deck and entertained us from time to time, and we spent one morning watching the elk graze around the front and back yards from the upper decks! The cabin had everything you could think of and more!! Debbie’s attention to detail was above and beyond! She made sure we had everything we needed and was a phone call away if we had questions. She left hiking trail maps out for us and even left water bottles for our fur babies! We had the best weekend thanks to the Wandering Elk Cabin and the hospitality of Debbie and Dave! We would , without hesitation, recommend this cabin to all our friends and family and we plan to go back with our children and grand kids in the near future! Maureen
This place was the perfect mid-week getaway for us to de-stress from work. The smell of the pines and the proximity to trails was great. Bonus was getting to see mule deer and other wildlife in the neighborhood.
The property is situated in an excellent location. We had people walk by while we were enjoying the weather on the front porch and comment on how it seemed like the perfect vacation rental. Accommodates a medium sized group well.
My son got married in Pine at the Tonto bridge park. We reserve three homes in Pine to accommodate friends and family. Wandering Elk was the best cabin and our hostess Debbie was the best. Debbie went out of of her to accommodate our needs, including to our two year old grandson. Theo has a blast with all the flags and animals, including Sammy the squirrel. The cabin became our “Base Camp” and the wedding was perfect. I strongly recommend Wandering Elk.
We had such a wonderful time. The host was very communicative and did everything they could to make our stay perfect. The cabin was such a welcoming and relaxing space. And the drive up was only 2 short hours from Phoenix, making it very easy to get to for a short weekend getaway.
