Palisades Ranger Residence Cabin

The location was great, close to summerhaven and ski valley and right off the main road. The Mt Bigelow trail is also right across the street. We watched a sunset at Windy Point and ate at Beyond Bread in the Mt Lemmon lodge. Planned on the Iron Door, but it is closed Tues and Wed. The kitchen had everything we needed and the futons were actually pretty comfortable for sleeping on. We saw many birds and wild turkeys. The fire pit was also a nice perk. Just don’t forget your TP and paper towels. There is wifi and electricity for charging devices.

We enjoyed our stay, great to have a yard for our dog.

Nice accommodation a few miles north of Rose Canyon Lake. The cabin had a lot of the main items you’d need like a stove, fridge, microwave, an outdoor grille. Area was nice and quiet and dark in the evening. Our family of 5 really enjoyed the stay.

Nice 1 br cabin with good heat and water. I would stay again. The Wi-Fi helped me- TMobile isn’t working well at the cabin. It is close to the visitors center which was closed when I was there but still many were playing in the snow around the cabin when I arrived. It was quiet at night at the end of Jan. Because the campgrounds are all empty or closed.

Staying at the cabin was such a wonderful, restful time under the pines. The fenced backyard made it easy for us to travel with our English Setters, who loved their walks down Organization Road. The cabin itself has a pretty well-stocked kitchen, so we didn't need to bring as much stuff as we did -- but it was our first time! And, the wifi signal is awesome, which made up for no cell service.

I could not find the address to the cabin online anywhere. I eventually downloaded the Google maps app so I could put the coordinates into and get directions. An address should be posted in multiple locations.

Comfortable cabin with easy access to many hiking trails. Sleeping on futons in the living room was practical for two guests, the bedroom has only one bed and it is not very inviting (there is no other furniture or accessories in the bedroom but plenty of floor space if one would like to put down inflatable mattress). Having WiFi available is a great addition for making calls since the regular cell service is spotty. Overall a great gateway that is close to Tucson yet secluded.

Great time! We've been before and knew to bring all our own bedding (Queen-Sized), bath/kitchen towels, as well as dish soap...along with our food, of course. This time there were no ice trays though, so we bought a bag of ice at the General Store in Summerhaven (they have many supplies, if you forget something).

Also, because cell service is sparse, it was great to find the Guest WiFi Password at the Visitor's Center close by.

Shower, toilet running water, A/C and heater. All excellent things at a high elevation in theory woods.
Enjoyed the use of the cabin, and plan to use again.
