The Neighborhood:
The Lake Mary area of Flagstaff is perfect for guests who want to experience Northern Arizona’s outdoor lifestyle while still being just a short drive from downtown. Surrounded by towering ponderosa pines and open forest, the area has a peaceful mountain feel with incredible opportunities for outdoor recreation in nearly every direction.
Lake Mary Road is a gateway to some of Flagstaff’s most popular recreation areas. Head out for hiking, mountain biking, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, or a scenic drive through the forest. Upper and Lower Lake Mary, numerous trail systems, picnic areas, and miles of Coconino National Forest provide plenty of options for spending the day outside.
Despite the beautiful forest setting, you won’t feel far removed from town. Downtown Flagstaff, NAU, restaurants, breweries, shopping, and local attractions are all within an easy drive, making this a great location for guests who want a balance of mountain adventure and city convenience.
Whether you're visiting to explore the trails, spend a day at the lake, enjoy Flagstaff’s snowy winters, or simply slow down and enjoy the fresh mountain air, the Lake Mary area provides a wonderful home base for experiencing everything Flagstaff and Northern Arizona have to offer.
Getting Around:
The best way to explore Flagstaff and the surrounding Northern Arizona attractions is by car. While Flagstaff does have public transit and ride-share options, many of the area’s highlights—such as the Grand Canyon, Sedona, Snowbowl, Walnut Canyon, and countless hiking trails—are easiest to reach when you have your own vehicle. A car allows you to enjoy the flexibility of mountain drives, day trips, and exploring at your own pace. Streets are easy to navigate, and most destinations offer convenient parking. PLEASE NOTE – WINTER ACCESS: This home is located at the end of a private dirt road. During snowy conditions, 4WD or AWD vehicles are REQUIRED to safely access the property. Please plan accordingly when booking during the winter months, as road conditions can vary with the weather.
Other Things to Note:
✅ To assist us in the management of local compliance standards we've implemented the following enhanced requirements which include a signed rental agreement and ID verification. We also require a security hold of $1000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $75 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional.
To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.
Your guest portal includes advertisements with third-party upgrades that you may want to enhance your stay. These upgrades are optional and include:
Early Check-in - $25/hr
Pet Policy: We welcome well-behaved pets! A $75 per pet, per stay fee applies. Please clean up after your pet and keep them off furniture.
Early check-in is subject to availability at the sole discretion of the host.
Early check-in availability is determined on the day of arrival.
Late Check-Out Policy
We kindly ask all guests to adhere to our check-out time as we are unable to accommodate late check-outs. This allows us sufficient time to prepare the property for the next guests and maintain our high standards of cleanliness and readiness. Guests who stay beyond our standard check-out time of 10:00 AM will incur a fee of $50 per hour. This charge helps offset the disruption to our cleaning schedule, ensuring the property is ready and welcoming for incoming guests.

Flagstaff experiences significant winter weather, and we want to ensure our guests are well-prepared for snow-related conditions. Please read this policy carefully, as it outlines what is covered and what is not regarding cancellations, travel disruptions, and snow management during your stay.
What IS Covered (Eligible for Refunds/Rescheduling)
The following events qualify for cancellation or rescheduling outside of our standard cancellation policy:
1. Government-Mandated Travel Restrictions

If one of these covered events occurs, guests may be eligible for a refund, rescheduling, or a credit for a future stay, at our discretion.
