Great place to stay for a ski weekend! 30 min drive to Snowbowl. So many games and activities for the kids (8 and 10), they didn’t once ask for tv! Kitchen was fully equipped and great since we cook all our meals even while traveling. We will absolutely stay here next time we come ski Snowbowl!
Our family of 4 was in town for the weekend and this was the perfect spot. It was close to shops and restaurants, and the places we were going to. My children enjoyed staying here and all of us were very comfortable. Thank you!
Trash ,old junk including a rusty cargo container all around. Patio dirtyThe only views are of other houses . Neighborhood kind was sketchy. Pulled in saw it and pulled out and went to a hotel. Did not stay Called VRBO to report the issue
We enjoyed the last 3 nights of our trip to Arizona in this lovely historic cottage. The kitchen is very well equipped and had many small and large appliances. We enjoyed sitting in the back yard in the mornings watching the birds.
Comfortable beds too! Nice place to stay.
Beautiful cabin, a wonderful birthday present from my family. Didnt want to leave. The cabin felt like home. Very cozey and accommodated everything we were looking for. Thank you so much. Cany wait to rent again in the future.
Myself and two friends rented this cabin to celebrate my birthday. Best time ever. Cabin was perfect nice and masculine. It snowed in October which was the icing on the weekend.
Really enjoyed the place. I loved sitting in the back yard at night when a small fire in the pit. The yard was large with lots of trees. Nice mountain view too. House was clean and had event we needed. We loved it. Only thing would be a lock for Martin
This place is a gem, tucked away at the edge of the town right up against a mountain. Coffee on the patio every morning with a beautiful view, yet close enough to town that my daughter could walk to Dunkin'! It has all the amenities we needed, enough space for all of us, and the owners were very nice and communicative. We will be hoping to stay here again the next time we visit the area.
The cabin was in a quiet neighborhood, had a quick and painless check-in process, and had everything we needed for our vacation. There was even some firewood for the outdoor fire pit!

Convenient to GC
Convenient place to stay on our Grand Canyon trip.
We came out for a family Snowboarding trip, and needed somewhere to stay. This cabin was perfect, it was clean, well stocked and comfortable. We felt right at home, and my kids loved the yard space. It also had a bathtub which was great for sore muscles after 2 days of boarding! Would definitely recommend this place. We will be back on our next trip!
We absolutely loved this cabin! Me and a few friends went to Arizona to hike and flagstaff was the middle destination. The hosts were great and answered any questions quickly! The cabin was cute and perfect for our group to chill after hikes!

Why they chose this property
This property is in town yet feels like it is in the middle of the forest. The house was built in 1938 by missionaries and was later purchased by a Flagstaff cabinet maker Stuart Houston, hence the Houston House. Andrew and Stefanie bought the house in 2007 and resorted it. The woods floors are the original hard wood floors.
What makes this property unique
The house is air conditioned and has plenty of space for a family of six. The yard sits on an acre in town. It is close to lots of recreation in town and you do not have to drive way out of town to feel like you are in the forest.
