The Backyard: The covered terrace is the crown jewel of the house. In addition to the huge 8-person outdoor dining table, the patio boasts several places to lounge and be immersed in nature. Whether it be the comfortable egg-shaped hammock chair, the oversized lounger, or outdoor sofa, you are sure to find the perfect place to enjoy a coffee, lose yourself in your favorite book, or just unwind with your favorite cocktail at the end of the day. The patio also has a Weber grill perfect for all your grilling needs. In addition, there is a propane tower heater for those chilly evenings.

Kitchen: The home has a well-equipped kitchen that will cater to your inner chef. The granite counter tops provide ample space to prepare your meal, and double basin inlaid sink makes cleaning up a breeze. Cooking on the four-burner gas range allows you to get your high heat applications seared to perfection. The home also has an under-sink RO machine so that you know you are drinking only the most pure water.

Dining Area: Located conveniently close to the kitchen is the dining table with seating for six people. There is also room for an additional two diners at the nearby bar. While there is a dining area inside, most choose to eat their meals at the large 8-person table on the covered terrace.

Main Living Room: Kick back and watch TV on the 65 inch television set while sitting in the zero-gravity reclining leather sofa. The reclining aspect of the leather sofa is motor operated for your convenience. There is also seating for two more in the plush oversized leather chairs.

Great Room: The days of having to agree on what to watch as a family are over! In addition to the living room in the front of the house, this home also has an extremely large add on great room. This huge room is surrounded in windows that let lots of natural light in. In addition to a large sectional and TV, the room has two oversized chairs that can be converted to beds for two additional guests. Since guests staying in this room need to walk through the master bedroom to access the bathroom, it is best suited for children that parents would like to keep an eye on. The room also has a sliding glass door which gives direct access to the covered terrace.

Bedroom 1, King Suite: You will sleep well in the ultra-comfortable king-sized Beauty Rest mattress. The adjustable (head or leg incline option) bed is surrounded by a gorgeous hand painted artist wall mural of a mountain range. Attached is a full bathroom with a double sink vanity and an enormous walk-in closet. In addition, the room is equipped with a large six-shelf dresser. Note: Due to an addition that was built on, this room does not have dedicated windows and natural light comes in through the doors to the great-room.

Bedroom 2: This room is equipped with a comfortable queen-sized Sleep Number bed. The room lets in ample natural light through the large windows during the day, and the blinds keep it nice and dark at night.

Bedroom 3: This room has two XL Twin beds perfect for two children, while also well suited for teens or adults. There is a blackout shade that is perfect for those that like to sleep in after a full day of fun or for those little kiddos whose bedtime is before sundown.

As is the case with most mountain homes, this home does not have air conditioning. It does however stay cooler than most homes in the neighborhood due to being south facing and being built on a concrete slab. There are also many fans throughout the house.

Except for a few off-limits areas, guests will have the entire home to themselves.

Accessibility: Whether entering from the garage or front door, there are two steps to enter the house. Guests do not have to navigate any other stairs to access the whole house nor the patio. There are four steps to walk into the backyard.

We provide space to our guests, and are available when needed. We will check with you a couple times in the beginning of your stay to make sure everything is well. You can get a hold of us via Vrbo messaging , text, or call.

We have a hard-working team, but in an effort to give them and us time with our families, we ask that you be patient with responses between the hours of 7pm and 8:30am.

Ponderosa Trails is one of Flagstaff’s premier neighborhoods with mostly newer construction single family homes. The neighborhood has convenient access to restaurants, groceries, Historic Downtown, and NAU. There is plenty of natural wooded spaces and trails to explore right out your front door in Ponderosa Trails, as well as Ponderosa Park. This neighborhood is great for families that just want to get away, relax, and not do much driving. Ponderosa Trails is also perfect for the guests that will be on the move because you can easily access big trails, major highways and the airport.

Ponderosa Trails is located in the South East portion of Flagstaff, convenient to Flagstaff Pulliam Airport, both the I17 (Highway to/from Phoenix) and I40 (west to Williams and the Grand Canyon, and east to Winslow), Highway 89 (South to Sedona and Verde Valley, North to Sunset Crater, Lake Powell, North Rim of Grand Canyon), as well as Highway 180 to Snowbowl. NAU campus lies just to the North of Ponderosa Trails. Fort Tuthill County Park (Flagstaff Extreme Adventure Course, Bike Park, Pepsi Amphitheater, Overland Expo, Rodeo, County Fair, etc.) is located to the west, just on the other side of I40.

When you stay here, you will want a vehicle to get around. Guests will be able to park in the garage and there are two additional off-street parking spaces in the drive-way. There are off-street parking spaces available, but please try to utilize the driveway and garage only. This helps keep the streets clear for easy navigation by residents.
