Christopher Creek Lodge

I've stayed twice in the bunks. Great place to stay. Beds are soft and clean. Host was great. It was a cold night the 1st night with no neighbors. I say that because I had neighbors on each side the next night and it wasnt as cold. They brought me wood to burn in the stove. Mind it isn't free but it's a great price. No delivery fee. I felt horrible because I had no cash to tip. There are heaters, and they work if you use them. Im grateful for the attention and delivery. I'll definitely be back soon.

Tod and his wife have done an amazing job taking over. It has been a while since we have been there, but it is way better than I remember! We will definitely be back. Thank you for an amazing weekend!!!

Stayed for two nights on a Monday and Tuesday night, middle of August. It was wonderful! We had the entire place pretty much to ourselves. The rooms are very comfortable. We stayed in a Pony Express unit near the front. Elk would wander and graze through the grounds. Staff was very helpful and friendly and they have bags of peanuts to give you to feed the squirrels! Unfortunately, there was a fire ban so we couldn't use the firepits dotted throughout the grounds, but we were able to use the gas grills. We plan to stay again in the autumn to see the trees change colors. We're also planning a winter stay there and hopefully see some snowfall. It's less than a 2-hour drive from Phoenix. All in all, I highly recommend Christopher Creek Lodge!

My family and I stayed at this place this past weekend. We had such a wonderful stay. From the time we called to book till the time we checked out we received nothing but the best. Todd and his wife were awesome to work with. We stayed in a trail bunk with our 4 kids. 3 slept on the top , and my husband ,myself , and our 4 year old on the bottom. What a bonus to be able to cook homemade meals for our family in the kitchen area in the cabin , and the nice grills outside. There is a creek that runs right through with elk hanging around. The playground and horseshoes were a bonus also! We will be returning!!

All around 5 stars, great little spot to just enjoy nature and spend time with your family on a get away from the moment we arrived we loved it. Todd was great and helped us with everything we needed. Rooms were clean and cozy and there's a little store and resturant right down the road. This may be our new yearly spot.

My partner and I are not rough and tough outdoorsy folk so I found this place on Google when looking for a more “glamping” type of experience for a weekend getaway from Phoenix. Camping without all the bugs and actual toilets. This place was nice. Peace and quiet in the woods, it was cold and rainy when we first got there which had the creek rushing the next day. fresh air and good walking near the street by the lodge. Theres a pretty good restaurant nearby (hours are a bit wonky so check) and a general store that had some higher quality offerings than what I was expecting. In our cabin #3 we had a main bedroom with a big comfy bed and a tv in the bedroom and main space. Theres a nicely remodeled bathroom with a sink toilet and shower. Not enough shampoo body wash or conditioner provided. There Is a kitchen that has an electric stove, oven, microwave and fridge and freezer. They offer utensils dishes pots and pans. Dish soap and sponge provided - bring some dish towels. The website said they have a coffee maker. Be warned that it is only a kcup brewer and no kcups are provided complimentary. Sounds extra but as a coffee snob I brought coffee thinking there would be a maker and panicked a little seeing no traditional coffee maker. Would be a nice service touch to include some coffee or at least teabags. The pans are also super worn down though so if that bothers you bring an extra pan. Theres a charcoal bbq facing the creek and some porch rocking chairs to enjoy the view. room has a small heater which was okay, but it still got really chilly so definitely bring extra blankets and fuzzy socks or slippers. Bedding was clean. Wi-Fi was good, no outages. For your privacy!!!! Make sure to sign out of any services like Netflix or YouTube you access on the TV - some random accounts were still signed in when we used it (we signed them out). We don’t have kids but this place seems great for families. Theres a playground on site and some picnic and bonfire areas. Our cabin had a loft with four futon type beds which I’m sure kids would love to stay in. There is a wood stove to burn duralogs in - bring some with you to add to cozy cabin ambiance as they are not provided. Overall Good experience with just a few “eh” moments. Thanks!

What a relaxing escape! Came up from the valley for a couple nights, and was welcomed early by the staff. Stayed in one of the "motel" front rooms. They're what you'd expect in a motel-style room, but more quaint, with a fairly spacious loft above. GREAT if you have some children visiting with you. Could also accommodate 3-4 adults with no problem. Lots of attractions in the area, but if you're staying put, there are restaurants and a nicely stocked store within walking distance. Can't say enough nice things about the staff. Truly welcoming and friendly!

We come here every year for a week and it is amazing. The wildlife is awesome as well great time everyone. This is for sure place to visit put it on your calendar. Thank you to all the staff and amenities. The place for a nice relaxing time. Enjoy everyone
