Located in the 400-million-acre White Mountains of eastern Arizona, Pinetop/Lakeside is Arizona's best kept secret, a four-season paradise that has been voted America's "Best Cabin Region" by readers of Cabin Life magazine. In the spring and summer, anglers and those who appreciate water are delighted with approximately 50 alpine lakes and 800 miles of cold, refreshing streams and rivers. Fall offers great opportunities to see the leaves change colors, seeing abundant wildlife, and an opportunity to experience relative solitude on the uncrowded extensive forested trail systems ideal for hiking, biking, horseback riding, quading and more. Finally, when the snow falls, cabin-goers relish the nearby backcountry snowshoe and Nordic ski trail systems and there's sledding, snowboarding and outstanding alpine skiing at Sunrise Park Resort with three majestic mountains to explore. This is an exceptionally rare opportunity to own a very special home in the White Mountains of Arizona. Make it yours today.
