Sam Hill's Cottage, built in 1934, has the charm of Prescott history with the conveniences of today (NEW CENTRAL AC!!!) . Owned by a descendant of Sam Hill and nestled among granite hills, our cottage is a true Prescott experience. Founded in 1877 The Sam'l Hill Hardware Company was destroyed along with the rest of Whiskey Row on Montezuma Street during the infamous Prescott Fire. By 1903 the rebuilt store soon became the region's largest hardware supplier. "Why in the Sam Hill are you telling me this" you ask? Because we want you to experience Prescott past and present in Sam Hill's Cottage.

Nice place to stay. Went with three children and they had fun
Great house to stay at while visiting Prescott. Close to town and had everything we needed.
Great communication with the owner. Can’t wait to stay again.
Sam Hill Cottage was absolutely a fantastic place to stay while visiting Prescott. Cozy and charming and well appointed. It had all we needed in a quiet neighborhood convenient to everything we wanted to do. The owners were great and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend this place.
This was a great place for my husband, grandson, his mother and I! We found that it was really close many fun things to do and places to see. Very comfortable for us.

We enjoy all the nearby hiking and there is always something happening in downtown Prescott. The Christmas lights are spectacular. Elks theater concerts, parades, shopping and restaurants. Colts BBQ, Papas Italian and El Gato Azul are our favorites.
A charming cottage with all the history of Prescott at your fingertips. Loved sitting on the porch sipping a glass of wine in the evening and waiting for the glorious thunderstorms to entertain us.
This house is tucked away almost at the end of a dead end street, nestled up into the boulders that are the hallmark of Prescott's landscape. Quiet, clean, and perfectly appointed. It was our second time here and we'll definitely check for this property first any time we're planning a trip to the area.
Awesome weekend. Nice layout, lots of room for 830 sq. ft. The kids loved the history of the house. They also liked the rocks to climb across the street! Everything you need, coffee maker, oven, dishwasher. It was a lot of fun!
We enjoyed this charming cottage completely. The laundry room is super! Everything else was just what we hoped. We had no complaints.

Cute house just outside of the Town Square
Things I want everyone to know.
It has a Washer and Dryer
It actually had to window AC units, one in the master and one in the kitchen.
They provided a large number of fans to assist with circulating the air in the house.
It was Mid July for us and we all slept comfortably.
Really enjoyed our stay.
My friends and I stayed at Sam Hill's Cottage and had a wonderful time! We were in Prescott for an adult soccer tournament and the location of this house was perfect! Just a short trip to downtown restaurants and activities and also very close to grocery stores.
Check in and check out were a breeze with everything we needed to know clearly outlined. Lisa was also super responsive and accommodating during checkin and checkout. The washer and dryer were a plus considering we played quite a bit of soccer and our clothing smelled less than desired ;) I would definitely recommend staying here and will look for it if we're up in Prescott again!
