Very well equipped home with nothing missing. Nicely decorated and the setting is lovely. It was cold and snowy but eventually warmed up for taking walks. The internet never was usable…possibly weather related.

Great cabin with wood deck. Love indoor wood burning fire place, full kitchen and living area. Also loved outdoor fire pit. It had all the necessities for home away from home. Lots of peace and quiet. A short drive to the lakes and hiking trails.

Great cabin in the woods

The cabin is in a beautiful forested area! Enjoyed our morning walks and our dog loved playing with the local ranch dog that patrols the community. The Americana/Farmhouse decor is very cute and the cabin is well stocked with the essentials.

A Perfect Getaway Week

Our recent stay at "The Ranch" at Mead Ranch wonderful, as it was a perfect blend of activity and down time. From this cozy cabin as our "home base", my wife and I were able to mountain bike, go horseback riding, play pickleball, explore the Tonto Natural Bridge area, antique shop, and simply relax on the porch with our favorite hot or cold drink. The cabin was absolutely perfect for our 5-day stay, complete with any amenity we would need, and the peaceful location was far enough in the woods to provide a temporary escape from our hectic lives. The property owner was extremely responsive to any questions we had ahead of time, and we're already looking forward to another visit in the near future.

The property was very complete and in a very quiet neighborhood. The county maintained roads to the property off of Highway 260 were in excellent condition. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation.

Cabin in the woods

We really enjoyed the solitude. It was a little off the beaten path, but not too far. The cabin was very clean and had an adorable patriotic theme throughout. Well stocked. Janet was a very good host and gave great directions to the cabin. Loved our time there.
