Great weekend getaway up north out of the heat
Came up from the valley with our kids to ride the Williams coaster and Zipline and explore the downtown. The home had everything we needed and was very convenient to everything in town. Neighborhood safe, walking distance to restaurants and shops, beds were comfy, very cozy! Would definitely stay here again! Owners had all the info you needed to enjoy the town and their home!

Mike & Dara Chavez reside in Waddell, Arizona. Both enjoy the Williams area for camping, hunting and fishing. Dara Chavez was born and lived in this area during her younger childhood years. They both work full time jobs and enjoy hosting guest from all over the world.

Why they chose this property

We chose a property in this area because it is a place we love and visit very frequently. From the first moment we saw this cottage we were hooked on its charm and the story we did not know at the time. The idea of owning and restoring a home built so long ago that has held many families and memories was amazing. Ownership of this home comes with responsibility to uphold the past and our desire to share it with others.

What makes this property unique

Historic home, sits on a hillside overlooking a beautiful area, quiet residential area, all new: appliances, furniture, amenities. One block from National Forest land for hiking, watching wildlife and enjoying the quiet.
