At nearly 7,000 feet of elevation, imagine sitting on 17+ acres surrounded by towering pines, with direct forest access from the property. The Lodge is relaxing, secluded, and enjoyable for the whole family while keeping the kids fully entertained. This 7-bedroom, 4-bathroom retreat is the perfect place when you're exhausted from the day's outdoor adventures. Gather for foosball, a bonfire or movie night in the living room or loft. This home is NOT new to Booking. The Lodge has been listed on Booking for years and while we have had so many guests rave about their experience, we decided to fully manage the listing to provide guests an even better experience with more flexibility, so we had to start over again specifically with the reviews. We look forward to hosting your next get away at The Lodge! The property provides a harmonious blend of adventure and relaxation, offering an unforgettable experience of tranquility and connection. While property may be tucked away in nature, there is great High-Speed WiFi via StarLink and many large Smart TVs throughout for indoor enjoyment. Enjoy the brilliance of the White Mountains with year-round outdoor recreation activities that reveal the beauty of the untouched landscape. Days come alive with outdoor exploration, as almost endless trails lead you through the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest, unveiling hidden wonders. Enjoy hiking, riding for hours on horses or ATVs, seeking out hieroglyphics and/or seeing the Juniper Ridge lookout tower! The Lodge has three stories, and all are accessed only by stairs. 4 wheeled drive may be necessary in winter or during times of high rain. There are some dirt roads on the way to the wonderful quiet seclusion of the property that are regularly maintained and suitable to drive by car. There is plenty of parking available along the driveway and around The Lodge including RV/trailer parking.

Pinedale is a small community and home to the only covered bridge in Arizona. The Verde Trail, General Crook's military trail from Fort Apache to Camp Verde built in the late 19th century, passed through this area. A mile marker for the trail is located just north of the Marreta B. Thomas covered bridge (located on the north end of town on the main road into Pinedale from AZ 260). Pinedale is about 20 minutes from Show Low where there are many stores and restaurants since they are not directly in Pinedale. The Livery On 260 is located only 5 minutes from Pinedale and has convenience items, supplies, ice cream, etc. There are gas stations and a Dollar General before Show Low about 15 minutes from Pinedale. Pinedale is a small, wonderful and peaceful community wonderfully situated in nature away from the hussle bussle and fast pace. There is a combination of paved and dirt roads that are regularly maintained and suitable to drive by car. 4 wheeled drive may be necessary in winter or during times of high rain.
