About this property

Beautiful Forest Lakes home nestled in the woods w/ perfect in and outdoor ameni

When you want to get away from all the hustle of the Valley, you can conveniently drive two hours, arriving in the pines at our beautiful home in the forest. Our home boasts four main bedrooms (master bedroom on the main floor with a king-sized bed, and two comfortable bedrooms on the second floor with wonderful views.) There is a very spacious great room with a television and wi-fi. Also, on the main floor is a side room with two bunk beds. The garage is spacious. On the west side of the house and below the side room, there is a game room with foosball and air hockey tables. We recently expanded the yard on the lower, west side for your hammock, a place to play games like cornhole, etc. We have a spacious driveway with lots of parking, a fire pit, a BBQ, prongs for roasting marshmallows or hot dogs, a cornhole set, and more. Though the interior of the cabin is cozy and comfortable, go out, sit on the full, wrap-around deck, and enjoy the fresh air! The road in front of our cabin, Summer Loop, leads to the ponds that people love to go to for picnics, fishing, and sledding (in the winter). Coconino License STR-24-04373349

About the host

Hosted by Ron Tenney

Host profile image
We have been part-time residents of Forest Lakes since 1999. We love everything about coming here in each of the seasons for various reasons. It has been a gathering place for our family and friends. We have five sons and thankfully, 2 of them lived and raised their families for a few years in the area. Ron is a veterinarian and Marilyn is a counselor. We built this home, intending to make it our summer home, but ended up using it for guests.

Why they chose this property

This home is on a quiet road in Forest Lakes, set far back from the main roads in the area. When quads are traveling in the area, the prevailing wind pushes all dust away. We built a huge deck so that we could be comfortable just lounging around on summer evenings. There is a nice view of the pines both in front, behind and to the west of the cabin.

What makes this property unique

There are comfortable beds for 12 (plus two couches). We have a BBQ as well as an outdoor firepit. If you chose to stay with us, please GET OUTSIDE and enjoy nature. But if the weather is not cooperating, we have wi-fi and TV with access to Roku, Netflix, and other streaming media. The spacious, panoramic view through the windows brings the Ponderosa forest to you.
