Looking to escape the triple-digit temps without leaving Arizona? A new wave of luxury listings from Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty is turning the idea of the summer home into a high-country reality.
Stretching across Prescott, Greer, Happy Jack, Munds Park, Lakeside, and Flagstaff, these Northern Arizona cabins and estates aren’t your average rustic getaways – they’re refined, well-appointed sanctuaries designed for mountain living with flair. Whether you’re craving forest views, handcrafted architecture, or a private observatory, there’s a high-elevation haven calling your name.
In Prescott, a towering 5,600-square-foot retreat sits tucked among pines on Charcoal Kiln Road, complete with wraparound decks, heated floors, a carriage house, and even a custom Kobayashi grill in the chef’s kitchen. It’s listed for $2.65M and only 20 minutes from downtown.
Heading northeast, Munds Park offers a showstopping $2.459M full-scribe log cabin with a wapiti stone fireplace, Wolf appliances, and a “family tree” log pillar anchoring the open concept interior. Recently spotlighted in Log Cabin Homes Magazine, it’s a woodsy work of art.
Over in Greer, the pondside lodge at 21 E County Road N 1031 merges 22-foot ceilings, hand-sculpted logs, and sunrise ski access—all wrapped in timeless elegance for $2.1M.
In Lakeside, a six-bedroom mountain home in the gated Starlight Ranchettes community brings lodge charm and modern comfort for $1.115M, featuring canyon-view decks and a detached bunkhouse for guests.
For those wanting true seclusion, Flagstaff’s $1.29M log home on 10 acres has solar power, forest access, and sweeping San Francisco Peak views – no HOA required.
And if you’re dreaming big, there’s the crown jewel: a breathtaking $5.95M estate on 120 acres in Happy Jack. Crafted from reclaimed whiskey wood and shipwreck beams, it features an observatory with a retractable roof, a swim spa, and panoramic terraces that practically demand a chilled rosé at sunset.
Whether you’re escaping the heat or investing in year-round mountain magic, these Northern Arizona homes blend summer relief with luxury living. Explore more at russlyon.com.
