Escape the Valley heat for cool Ponderosa pines, a seasonal creek, and evenings around the fire pit. This full log cabin sits on nearly an acre in the heart of Strawberry, ready to enjoy from day one. Inside, exposed wood beams and new luxury vinyl plank flooring warm all 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, while two covered decks reach into the trees. Out back, a seasonal creek and bridge lead to a private meadow, with a 220-wired workshop and storage sheds for your gear. Adventure starts at the door. Namesake Fossil Creek is famous for turquoise swimming holes and waterfalls, the Mogollon Rim and Arizona Trail deliver hiking and biking, and Tonto Natural Bridge sits a short drive south. A turnkey short-term rental with furnishings available separately, so you can keep the income or settle in. The home. A full log cabin built for mountain living, with exposed beams, new luxury vinyl plank flooring, dual-paned windows, and two covered decks. A metal roof tops the home and the workshop, and the 220-wired workshop offers guest-house potential, joined by two additional wired storage sheds. Recreation. Fossil Creek is a federally protected Wild and Scenic River with year-round spring water and turquoise swimming holes (a permit is required in the busy season). Tonto Natural Bridge State Park showcases the largest natural travertine bridge in the world. The Mogollon Rim rises just north with the Highline Trail, scenic overlooks, and cool-season snow play, and Pine is an official Arizona Trail gateway. Rim lakes and the C.C. Cragin (Blue Ridge) Reservoir add fishing and boating within an easy drive. Town and history. The Strawberry Schoolhouse, the oldest standing schoolhouse in Arizona, dates to 1885. Local favorites like THAT Brewery, Old County Inn, Pinewood Tavern, the Early Bird Cafe, and Mama Joe's Italian keep weekends easy, alongside antique shops, a farmers market, and events like the Pine-Strawberry Summer Fest. Getting here. Payson and its full services are about 20 minutes south, with Phoenix roughly two hours down the hill, an easy weekend getaway or a full-time retreat in the pines. Owner/Agents
