About this property

Castle In The Pines - 5BR 4bath, 3600 sq ft, 3 levels, best amenities in town!

Remodeled this past year, this is THE cabin in Munds Park! You'll know you are at the right place when you see situated atop the hill this majestic 3-story cabin peaking through the pine trees...and you will quickly see why it is known by the locals as 'The Castle in The Pines'. The cabin is 3600sf of breathtaking views. 3 stories, each with enormous wrap-around decks offering views of the serene lake, towering mountains, and pines as far as the eye can see. We are close to everything, but without sacrificing the peace & quiet we all seek when escaping to Munds Park. The 'Castle in the Pines' is a true 5-bedroom, each with a king or queen bed and a bunk-room with a divider. Two of the rooms are Master Suites with private decks, en-suite full bathrooms & shower & tubs! The Castle sleeps 14 comfortably in beds, and then couches & air-mattresses for up to 17 total max capacity, inc kids. We have a folding crib, a pack-n-play, and other baby-friendly amenities. On the first floor is a game room with pool table, ping-pong, appleTV, 65' new plasma TV, Dish, WiFi & all the best board games, fireplaces, wet-bar kitchenette with sink, wine fridge, and mini-fridge. Head out to the deck, grill some burgers and enjoy a game of bean bag-toss & giant Chess. Wind down on the deck at night with a glass of wine and enjoy the unparalleled star-gazing in the clear night sky! We have owned the cabin for 17 years and we still use it regularly. If you like to explore, hit the Crystal Point Trail minutes away, or head into Flagstaff and enjoy the ped-mall and there are festivals and concerts just about every weekend (20 minute drive). A short drive to Sedona (30-45 minutes); Grand Canyon (2-3 hrs); local casino (30 min) or Las Vegas (~4 hrs); even Phoenix and D-backs baseball games only 90 minutes! Amazing trails to hike; ATV's to rent; historic ghost-towns.....seriously it's ALL here you cannot find a better family vacation in a better place at a better cabin at this price. NOTE: Any requests for 13 or more people and/or less than 3 nights (1 or 2) are subject to case-by-case pricing. The best value around!

Amazing place for multiple families!
We had such a great weekend away with 6 adults and 8 kids. The house had so much space for us to spread out and the kids had a blast (they didn’t even turn on the tv!) The house was clean, well stocked, and the communication with the owners was great. We will be back!

Amazing cool getaway
Be prepared for the hill, it’s quite steep. Weather was beautiful, neighborhood was very quiet, house had everything we needed as far as towels, linens, kitchen wear. We had a great time! The house manual was a little outdated, but the Hosts were very communicative before, during, and after when we thought we lost some items. I would definitely recommend, and we will definitely be back!

Family Gathering for NAU graduation
This was the perfect cabin for our family to stay in while attending NAU graduation. It was well stocked and had a lot of space for everyone. There are three levels with hang out places on each level. We enjoyed making a fire in the fireplace and walking down to the lake to fish. The foldable crib and pack and play were nice to have for the kids. We'll definitely come back.

Great Property
We greatly enjoyed our stay. The home was very clean upon our arrival and the beds were comfortable. Our host was very helpful. and kept us informed. As we traveled to the property he informed us of a pending snowstorm. The next day we lost power, and he kept us updated with information from APS Power. The snowstorm and power outage just added to our adventure. We found plenty to do at the house and the downstairs fireplace kept us warm. On the last day another storm hit the area and he told us we could leave later than the expected checkout time. We appreciated his help and information. There is plenty to do in the Sedona area. I would recommend this property and hope to return some day.

Amazing Birthday Weekend - Extra Snow!
The trip was everything I could have asked for myself and my friends. The forecast had little to no snow while we were there, and then a big snow storm came but it was beautiful! The property owners were very responsive and helped out with all of our potential needs. Lastly, there were so much room and games for everyone, 10/10!

The ol’ cabin
This was such a treat. As I exhaustively stated to the owners, my father built this cabin in the mid 80s. It was a real treat to go back and visit for a weekend (his 80th birthday!). The owners were very communicative and courteous throughout and everyone had a wonderful stay. We WILL be back! Highly recommend!! Close to a lake, lots to do outdoors and unbeatable views!

Family fun at its best!
Three levels of comfort for family and friends. Floor one: loud games and easy access to outside; floor two: great cooking and fireside chats and Scrabble; level three: books and naps! All levels have amazing deckage! Lake is great. Hikes are as easy or tough as you need. Trees everywhere! So grateful that this amazing cabin is rented out. Gracious owners indeed.

Beautiful Home
The property is beautifully set among the tall pine trees of Northern AZ. The house had everything we needed to enjoy our stay while we were in Munds park attending a wedding. Plenty of towels, blankets and kitchen stuff to sit back and thoroughly enjoy our stay. The patio was large with plenty of chairs that we could all enjoy or breakfast on the patio.

Girls Get Away weekend
We had a fabulous time at the Castle in the Pines! It was the perfect place for eight girlfriends to relax and gather together in this very spacious and well appointed home. We loved sitting outside on the many decks available. Lake Odell was right at the bottom of the hill and the surroundings were beautiful for our daily walks. The owners were quick to respond to handle any questions or issues that we had. We highly recommend this place and hope to return some day!

About the host

Hosted by Kevin Burk

Host profile image
Our family has owned it for 17 years and opened it up for rent in 2014. As many Phoenicians, we retreat to Munds park often during the summer to escape the heat. We saw this cabin and fell in love. We have owned and operated a small local mortgage company in Phoenix/Scottsdale, among a few other endeavors. We are a family of 12, and growing, from all over the country originally but now we all live/work in North Scottsdale which is just a 2 hr max drive. Every year we frequent the cabin and we continue to put our profits back into the decor, quality, and amenities. NOTE: Any requests for 13 or more people and/or less than 3 nights (so 1 or 2) are subject to case-by-case pricing.

Why they chose this property

Our cabin is one of a kind in Munds Park, AZ, in that we have 3 levels and each is complete with bedrooms, bathrooms, sinks, and most importantly the common areas to hang out. Almost every guest with multiple families have raved about the layout, the amenities, the location, the views, etc.....and the 1000+ sq ft of outdoor deck spanning all 3 levels, provides the feeling of being "up in the pine-trees" while still being in a residential area just minutes from the lake, golf-course, restaurants, bar, rentals, activities, etc. The kitchen level is well-equipped and with lots of seating, while the other levels boast even more seating and entertainment. Whether you're on a winter/snow trip (we're 20 min from Snow Bowl Mtn. in Flagstaff), or a summer trip to escape the heat (perfect 70-80 May - Oct usually) - you won't find a better rental.
