Excellent accommodation

The property is excellent, spotlessly clean and a very comfortable place to stay. It is located in a very quiet neighbourhood, a short drive from Flagstaff centre. Communication was very efficient and the checkin process was simplicity itself. Andrew was at the property mowing the grass when we arrived. He gave us information about the area and some of the history of the house. I highly recommend staying at this property.

Beautiful, peaceful

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.

Flagstaff Cabin May 2024

Adorable cabin with wonderful interior. Perfect location so as to be close to Flagstaff but with a feeling as though you are in the woods. I would definitely return. When you are driving there for the first time, remember to take the left fork of the driveway, and then head up to the front door which is directly in front of you. We found the check-in instructions a little confusing.

Mountain view Cabin

Lovely rustic cabin in a great Flagstaff location! Just down the road is a trailhead connected to Mt. Elden trails. We saw a doe and fawn in the side yard, and a sweet ground squirrel. The cabin is just perfect IMO. Not fancy, but very clean and quaint. Good beds, and a comfortable futon. We spent a lot of time in the outdoor seating area just soaking in the quiet and the view.

Perfect For Our Snowboarding 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!

Great family getaway spot!

Our trip was short, but very comfortable. There were toys for our daughter to play with and everything needed in the kitchen was provided. Outside was beautiful and quiet. The only complaint was that we wanted more time there! Thank you for sharing your family cabin with our family, we hope to visit again soon!

Ok cabin

Driving in and parking is not convenient. Unpacking the car and getting the bags to the door is not easy. Getting out of parking requires backing between a couple of trees to be able to turn and get out of the place. The seating was not comfortable in the kitchen as well as the living room..

So cozy and wonderful

The cabin was so nice. It was built in 1938 and had a lot of antique decorations that we really enjoyed. Our stay was wonderful and we will definitely be back to stay again. In the future. The price was fair and a host was great. Thank you, the Andersons.

About the host

Hosted by Stefanie Marquardt

Andrew has lived in Flagstaff since 1989 and owns his own business, he also sells real estate on the side. Stefanie has lived in Flagstaff her whole life and is a 4th grade teacher at a nearby school. Andrew and Stefanie are enjoying raising their 3 children in Flagstaff, they have 2 sons and a daughter. The family loves many outdoor activities in from running, hiking and climbing to skiing and fishing. If you need any help with recreation they are glad to help.

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.
