Sometimes, you just need to escape from the chaos of city life and venture out deep into the wilderness. Greer Lodge Resort & Cabins is a charming riverfront destination that encourages guests to unplug and enjoy the simplicity of nature.
Greer Lodge Resort & Cabins has been a favorite year-round vacation spot for Arizonans everywhere since 1948. Far removed from the chaos of big city life, this remote getaway is surrounded by natural beauty.
A small river meanders through the property, and the tranquil sound of rushing water evokes a sense of deep relaxation in all who can hear it.
Nearly all of the 20 cabins are located directly on the water, be it the river, spring-fed stream, or private fishing pond fully stocked with trout. There isn't a bad view to be found!
If you prefer, there is also a log motel with rooms that sleep two each.
Nothing quite compares to fresh mountain air filling your nostrils first thing in the morning. Leisurely sip your coffee on the porch while enjoying gorgeous panoramic views.
See if you can spot any wildlife! Bald eagles, elk, and deer abound in the area.
While you're here, make sure to get out and explore. Greer boasts a whopping 16 hiking trails and scenic drives, plus some of the best stargazing Arizona has to offer.
Other activities include fishing, birdwatching, and zipline tours.
Much like a chameleon, the lodge and surrounding landscape change with the seasons. Come wintertime, Greer transforms into a snow-covered wonderland that looks like a picture-perfect scene from a Christmas movie.
