About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Romantic Chalet in the Forest

Our Chalet offers a large loft Bedroom with a queen bed. Beautiful views of the Mogollon Rim from the bed, and of the National Forest to the back. Downstairs bedroom has full bed. In the living room you will find a wonderful wood burning stove. The living room has incredible views from the cathedral like windows. Kitchen has everything except your food. Outdoor deck is very private with tall pine trees providing lovely shade. Our cabin is located at the very back of the lot right up to the National Forest. It is in a very private setting. If you are looking for a cozy couples retreat, we think you've found it! Note, the Century Link Internet out in the forest is spotty at times. Please don't expect it to work well, and after all it's not why we are up there!

Peaceful Retreat

The house is surrounded by the forest. Has nice natural lighting from a beautiful large window in the living room. We had everything we needed to cook & relax there. There's a creek across the street with a quiet neighborhood for walking. The host was very responsive and pleasant. We look forward to staying here again!

Peaceful rest in the woods

This a great place for some peace and quite in the woods. The cabin is roomy and very clean. The extra plus is it close to hiking. The Washington Park TH is just up the road, which provides miles of great trails.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

We love leaving the hustle of our daily lives in Phoenix to escape to Gabriel's Chalet. Its the perfect spot to relax, unwind, go for long walks/hikes, and just escape. We've been coming for a few years now and its just perfect!

We were looking for something that was off the beaten path and quiet. This property met that expectation perfectly. The accommodation itself was lovely, with a fully stocked kitchen. The bathroom and sleeping areas were lovely as well. It was very nice to be able to go out for an early morning hike starting from the property. Loved it! Our favorite part though was interacting with the host Gabe. He was very responsive and went out of his way to respond quickly and to streamline the process. He did a fantastic job.

Wonderful weekend getaway

Although this cabin is in a neighborhood, it feels secluded which is exactly what we were looking for! The kitchen is well stocked and our dogs enjoyed all the new smells in the woods. We had a great time!

Great escape from the city life

Our family throughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. We were looking for a place to disconnect and enjoy fanily time. This was the place. Hiking near by and plently of nature to enjoy. If you need a place to disconnect this is the place. Our dogs loved it as well. We can't wait to be back.

Treasure in Pine

This cabin is a true treasure. Tucked away in a beautiful wooded area with nature all around, beautiful place to unplug and relax. The cabin was clean and had all of the amenities needed for a comfortable stay and the host was excellent at communications road conditions and instructions.

Lovely mountains setting.

Lovely scenic area. Host was exceptionally kind and helpful. Elevation is 5000+ feet. There is a river nearby to walk to and numerous hiking trails. Cabin is somewhat secluded, however, if you walk down the driveway… There are many friendly neighbors. Place was immaculate and welcoming when we arrived.

We will use it again!

LOVE this cabin! A little hard to find but once you do - it's awesome! You feel like you are in the forest but there are neighbors, but the cabin is surrounded by trees.. The cabin was clean but the coffee pot (Krupps) was pretty scaled up and corners not clean on the floor. LOVE the coffee choices! The picnic table on the deck was pretty rickety but ok. Definitely a good experience. No cable but a smart TV. We will definately be back! The owner was awesome!

Perfectly serene and beautiful

Dan and I had an extraordinary time at the Chalet in the Forest. Our property host communicated politely and completely from the first interaction throughout our stay. She gave very clear directions, which we needed as the chalet was remote and would have been hard to find otherwise. Our chalet was tucked away in the woods, quiet, and well supplied with all the necessary essentials for our home away from home. Coffee and tea were provided as well as a little snack when we arrived. The beds were comfortable, AC efficient and there were fans as well to move the air. The chalet was clean, tidy, cutely furnished as well as a clean and beautiful deck with furniture and a wonderful grill. We were in the forest, literally and we saw deer, elk and a little band of forest pigs walked through area in the very early morning hours while we were up and star gazing in enjoying our first coffee of the day. Absolutely enchanting stay.

Peaceful Getaway

My husband and I celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary and my birthday during our stay. It was our first time being away from our 18 month old son and it was exactly what we needed to reconnect and rejuvenate. It was perfectly tucked away from any neighbors and each morning we enjoyed listening to the birds and stream of water. The stars at night were spectacular. We highly recommend this place for anyone who is desiring to unwind and unplug from the busyness of every day life.

Cottage in the woods.

This is our second time here. The cabin is situated where the morning sun steams through the big window. It is also where you have no neighbors. We love having a cup of coffee on the front porch and bask in the quiet of the woods. Just lovely. Very Private as well.
