The perfect getaway for the weekend. A cozy cabin nestled in the woods with an amazing deck to sit and listen to the creek while drinking coffee. The living area was great for playing games and watching our shows on the available WiFi. The beds were comfortable and warm during the cool nights. We are definitely returning to this amazing destination!!

Wonderful. Peter, our host, provided clear directions as well as a fantastic, functional A-frame full of character. Coffee in the morning on the back deck near the creek was lovely. We cooked several meals while we stayed, finding all necessary tools and pans with ease. There were many sleeping options including a queen sized bed in the loft. Our family looks forward to visiting this property again.

We recently stayed at this charming cabin in Christopher Creek, AZ, and it was absolutely delightful! The cabin was clean, cozy, and had such a welcoming vibe from the moment we walked in. The instructions for using the amenities were clear and straightforward, which made everything super easy. One of my favorite moments was roasting marshmallows on the peaceful deck right by the creek – such a perfect way to unwind. I also appreciated the well-stocked coffee and tea station that was ready to fuel my mornings. The large windows showcased stunning views of the surrounding nature, making the whole experience even more special. Highly recommend this cabin for a relaxing getaway!

Our stay was so lovely. My daughter loved seeing all the animals. So much adventuring to do in this area. Starting with the backyard creek! The cabin itself was so cute and cozy- only wish we brought more people with how much room and fun there was to enjoy! We played uno and relaxed on the back porch and watched the elk.

Weekend getaway with family, travelled with my 86 year old mother and husband. Such a cute A-frame home with a Shabby chic style. Spent most of our time on the back portch listening to the birds, elk and cattle calls. Board games filled our evenings, a nice selection to play. The interior was clean and comfortable. Loved the kitchen, plenty of cute dishes and pans, seasonings to cook. The deck furniture was in great shape & comfortable,. If traveling with a person who uses a walker, keep in mind, it will need to be collapsed to enter the bathrrooms. Had very tasty fish and chips at nearby Landmark restaurant.

Sweet escape

Our family had the best time! Christopher Creek is a quick trip out of the city where we enjoyed the fresh air, easy going vibes, animal sightings, and playing in nature. The house was cozy and clean! We were very comfortable with access to everything we could’ve needed. Our host was was excellent. We hope to return one day!

Amazing Getaway

We spent three amazing weeks here and loved every minute. The kids loved the cool bathtubs and playing in the creek. I loved the trees, the comfy beds, and that the kitchen was well-appointed. We all loved the weather and seeing all the animals and the friendly neighbors.

Don't come here (it is too nice we don't want the word to get out)

You definitely don't want to go to this idyllic, quiet spot right next to the creek, with a perfectly cozy place to get away from everything. The perfect weather, communicative hosts, and nice accommodations are not something you should bother yourself with because it would be a shame if we were unable to come here regularly. Avoid this place so we can keep coming back every year.
