Although this is a perfect location for a quick getaway and the setting couldn't be better, there is a lot of clutter and old bedding and furniture at the property. I think you should minimalize and declutter the inside and also get rid of the mementos by the kitchen. The deck is amazing and the privacy can't be beaten!

This is a very special place to spend internet disconnected time to connect with your family. We have a handicapped child and could never camp, so the is the closest we can come to the camping experience. Each time we come I try to do a special "extra" job to help with the overall upkeep. This trip I did all of the windows inside and out that I could reach. I would really encourage other visitors to find a special thing to clean as a kind gesture. I want to add, that if you use the oven, microwave, fridge, BATHROOM... clean it! No one should have to clean up after your mess. I do think the fireplace ash dump and flue need to be cleaned out, I think that is why the smoke backs into the house with a slight wind. I highly recommend Kent Springs cabin as a wonderful getaway for you and friends or family. Ranger came up and introduced himself, that was great; felt like someone was looking out for us. Back patio is just a peaceful place to sit and take it all in. How lucky are we to have such a relaxing place to visit!

We spend a weekend at the cabin in February, taking our 4-year old with us who used the indoor rock boulders for practicing rock climbing...We had a great time. The cabin is located in a very quiet area, we saw nobody else during the whole stay. The house is equipped with everything we needed, even has comfortable couches. The mattresses are not great, though. We appreciate former tenants cleaning efforts, the place was looking nice and clean. Some items not to forget would be dish detergents, soap, toilet paper, or you will be running out to Green Valley's grocery stores. I disagree with some other reviewers who found there to be too much "clutter" and "mementos" - we really liked it, because it gives the place character and something to explore. We spend our time hiking in the vicinity of the house and watching wildlife. We saw a family of choatimundi close by, and a very curious squirrel. If you enjoy nature and lots of trees, you will have a good time at the cabin.

This is a beautiful cabin and wonderful base for day hiking in Madera Cabin. There are a range of trails of differing length and difficulty. A great opportunity to experience the ecology of one of Arizona's sky islands. We saw coatimundi, wild turkey, and lots of deer.
