About Sycamore Cabin

Sycamore Cabin provides a unique recreation opportunity and lodging experience for visitors to Prescott National Forest. In 1938, the Civilian Conservation Corps constructed the cabin, which served as a residence for the district ranger and later, as housing for fire crews during fire season. The cabin's capacity is up to eight people, however sleeping accommodations within the cabin are for six. A Recreational Vehicle (RV) is permitted for the additional two people. An extra vehicle fee will be charged for the RV. The cabin is available for reservation year round for guests seeking relaxation and recreation in central Arizona by making reservation on this site or calling 1 (877) 444-6777. For general cabin question contact the Verde Ranger District at 1 (928) 567-4121.

We enjoyed our stay. The creek was running and weather was perfect. Cookware and cutlery were new condition. Beds were comfy. Fenced yard was great.

5/5. Highly recommend! Stove, range, full size fridge, freezer, microwave, coffee maker, you name it, this cabin, while offering great solitude, great views, and not that difficult access, is fully equipped. We brought supplies, “just in case,” but the cabin already had 14 (!) rolls of toilet paper, etc. Flush toilet & hot showers. Wonderful large fire ring outside. The road from I-17 was freshly graded, with no rain in the past month, so no problems getting to the cabin. The A/C and heat are both wonderful. If you want a quiet escape, or a great location for family time, this is it. I hiked up the road to the “main” road & back each morning, a couple miles, then spent the rest of each day reading on the front porch, enjoying the view, until it was time to make a fire & watch the night sky. There was a little water in the creek, barely flowing, but largely stagnant, so that wasn’t an attraction this week. Again, full equipped, very clean (& we left it clean ourselves), and convenient.

When we arrived the grass was so long and the yeard was not cleaned up or takin care of. Inside of the cabin would have been great but there was so much dust, spiders and spider webs all over the place. When you would hit the bed dust and little bugs flew up. It was so bad that we only stood about an hour then we packed up and left. We will not be going back. Also since the AC is turned off it took so long to get cool. We were there for an hour and it still was not cooled down. Another reason why we left. If they want to improve this place they need to take better care of this place and hire cleaners that are actually going to clean up the place. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.
