Cool Cabin

We had a great time with family. The layout of the house made it seem larger than it was. Had a cool basement/game room. It actually had 3 full bathrooms. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Stay

Great location. Secluded and quiet. Clean and everything needed was made available. Just two things to note. Little to no cell phone signal, but there is a landline phone for emergencies and necessary phone calls. We didn't need the phone at all during our stay. The other is that there are a lot of stairs. We didn't have issues, but if had older guests stay, then it might be little more difficult for them. Overall, great place. Great communication with the owner. Would definitely come back again.

Memory Making Family Gathering

As grandparents we wanted to create some memories for our children/spouses and grandchildren this Christmas season. Your home provided the right atmosphere and outdoor scenery to make that happen. There was plenty of spaces to have individual one-on-one conversations, group gatherings in front of the fireplace, at the large kitchen table, or on either of the two outdoor decks. The kids had so much fun walking around the property exploring and even got to see a family of javelinas who visited twice during our stay! We had ping pong games going all the time trying to determine the ultimate champion. All in all, a great time was had by all and we could not be more pleased to have chosen this property to spend some quality time with our loved ones. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

About the host

Hosted by Conrad Nelke

We are at the time of life where we can be our own 'bosses' (retired engineer & English CC teacher.) Our family comes first, then friends (also 4 legged variety) followed closely by golf (him) bridge( us) reading (us); Travel (Our planes head mainly to towns where kids & friends live) Next, Remodeling--him, work--her, inspiration. Club & volunteer stuff-- him HO, her KD; TV--him, sports. her drama!
We have been married for 50 years to the same people! Both: married '59, graduated Kansas State '60, had baby, '61, baby '62; baby '63--in '64 we got a dog!! All goes well.

Why they chose this property

We wanted a place away from the valley where all of the kids and grandkids could come and be together. We found the area while visiting friends in Whispering Pines in a gorgeous snowstorm the day after a warm Thanksgiving in Phoenix. It seemed like heaven to be able to share both worlds with only a two hour ride. We wanted in! We had the shell built and completed the house ourselves. We picked chandeliers from Mexico, rocks for the fireplace from all over the country, and furnishings from family pieces, 'gently used' and even broke down and bought a lot. It works as 'eclectic to the max,' The views in this area belong to God--we just bought here so we could share them. There is a feeling in the air here that brings out the best in people which makes them happy.

What makes this property unique

Inviting friends here for a day or a weekend is a joy for us & them. Everyday cares fall away as the pines, oaks, and juniper give the air a certain mountain tang. Actually, The 5,400 feet elevation makes the nights 25 degrees and days 15 degrees cooler than valley temperatures. Here, we have seasons that give us soft spring rain, exciting summer electriical storms, vivid autumn leaves, and frost, snow, & earmuffs.
We never tire of seeing the glorious views of 40 miles of Rim that we share with God. Sunsets from the north deck are amazing, and the experience of watching a storm approach through the valley until the new rain finally drives you from your nest in the porch swing inside--unforgettable. We have had many memorable family reunions here--there have been two Golden Wedding celebrations, a Honeymoon--the magic is just beginning. You won't want to forget your time here. Bring your best camera.
