Our vacation home is surrounded by the Coconino National Forest, located in a quiet rural neighborhood nestled in tall pines at top of a hill at 7,000 feet. Elk frequent the large meadow and creek at the bottom of the hill.  Hear birds and wind rustling through the pines.  The location is great for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.  The wildlife includes elk, fox, deer, and a large variety of waterfowl and migratory birds.  The deck and upstairs windows have distant views of pine national forest.  The landscaping in entire neighborhood is the natural indigenous tall pine trees, which are protected by the state.
