Portal AZ Lodging

We offer thirteen housekeeping units which sleep from 2 to 9 people: six comfortable cottages, two lodges with three apartments each, and the Ranch House. All units have private bathrooms, fully-equipped kitchens, heaters/furnaces, and air conditioning/evaporative coolers. High Season is March through August and holidays. Low Season is September through February. Three night minimum in April and May, two nights the rest of the year.

Dogs: Regretfully we cannot allow dogs. This is a wildlife sanctuary, and the deer, javelinas, coatis, etc., are very aware of a dog’s presence, even on a leash, and make themselves scarce. Several nearby places welcome dogs.
