Places to eat
These are some of the local places where we like to eat.
Great place to eat and to be entertained. Servers take turns individually and in groups singing all sorts of music with a live pianist. A very lively and fun atmosphere

Hiking

We love to hike, and the Miner's Cabin is in the heart of the Coconino National Forest. I have added several hikes which start at our front door to the GaiaGPS app. Many more extensive hikes are close at hand.

What can we say about the Grand Canyon? You can be a tourist and see the sights, or you can be adventurous and hike it. Our family has hiked the canyon rim-to-rim as a day hike. The park service does not recommend this, but if you are properly prepared you can hike across the canyon in one day. Let me emphasize "properly prepared" as you really do need to train for this. It is like a marathon--only more difficult as you have terrain and weather.
