Riverfront Cabin with Hot Tub, Games & Wild Blackberry Trails

Stay a While. The 4th Night’s On Us
When available, we’re happy to elevate your escape with a complimentary extra night—just reach out to extend.


Tucked into two wooded acres along the East Verde River, Verde River Lodge is your private hideaway for fresh air, slow mornings, and cozy nights. This 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath cabin brings together rustic charm and modern comforts—perfect for families, couples, or group getaways.

Step outside and you’re surrounded by nature: kids catching crawdads by the water, trails lined with wild blackberries, and the sound of the river flowing in the background. Soak in the hot tub at night, grill dinner under the stars, or curl up inside with a movie or board game. With a spacious kitchen, indoor and outdoor game zones, and a huge wraparound deck, this is a stay that makes it easy to unplug and reconnect.

WHAT YOU’LL LOVE:
• Direct river access—great for fly fishing, exploring, or wading with kids
• Hot tub under the stars
• Wraparound deck for morning coffee or sunset cocktails
• Game room with ping pong, poker, and air hockey
• Full kitchen with gas appliances, stocked with essentials
• Grassy lawn with cornhole, soccer, and a horseshoe pit
• Firepit for s’mores and storytelling
• Quiet, private setting—but only 15 minutes to town
• EV charger for easy access
• Hotel-grade linens and thoughtful extras to make your stay effortless

Warm, rustic, and made for together time. You’ll feel like you’ve truly gotten away—but with all the modern comforts waiting when you want them. Kids roam free. Adults unwind. And everyone heads home just a little more grounded.

WHAT GUESTS ARE SAYING:
