I have driven a lot thru that area looking for a place to retire. Just about anything up on the Mogollon rim in nice.
Yea... I don't know what the hell in doing. Changes weekly. [emoji53]
Lol. Glad I am only dealing with one state.
I told my wife we an live anywhere and she said. We'll probably should go out by ur friends and the river. I said well the river yes.
Then I get. As long as we have property there like we do here. No problem. Wish she would of said this 2 years ago.
Lord. Why me [emoji202][emoji106]
My buddy camps up in williams alot and offroads. Looks amazing, i think it gets pretty damn cold though in winter
We just moved to Prescott Valley Sept 1st. We have 2 acres (horse property). We love it here. The town of Prescott itself you would be a little hard pressed to find acreage. I would say look in Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Paulden & Dewey in that order. These are all basically subdivisions of Prescott and are all ranch friendly. I'm not an expert but if I help in anyway just PM me and I can give you my #.

have you considered st george?? it's population is about 50k more than Prescott. u could live in the outskirts and have bigger city life close by but still outta sight. 4 seasons, a lil further from the river but I'd bet land and housing is cheaper.
My wife was looking at page, az. And said look property and you have this big lake there. She has no clue what Powell is about. Then she said , jus take that river from there to Parker. Lol. [emoji2]
Lived in Chino Valley then Paulden, had 5 acres 2 1/2 miles off of highway 89 on Gunsite Rd.
25 miles north of Prescott. Lots of parcels for sale in that area. It was beautiful. Zoned for
Animals. Cold for a So Cal girl in the winter but summers were just right. Only 2 hours to
Bullhead City.
Why thank you hot stuff. I appreciate that info. Once settle you guys can come visit
Hope is all well with you [emoji106][emoji202]
I have spent a lot of time in Prescott, Prescott Valley, Dewey, and recently Payson. Prescott has the largest resources in town, but there is just something about the area around Payson I like. You really can't go wrong with any of the areas, and you should be able to find exactly what you are looking for.
Williams will soon be home to the next six flags amusement park. They have been buying up property for the past few years there.
260 cafe and Buffalo Bar are must stops for food. Roll in to Pine and stop at Sidewinders Saloon and then go in the grocery store next door. THE BEST bakery i can think of. The Sportsmans bar in Strawberry is pretty good also and the owner is a Lake Pleasant boater.
We almost moved to Payson years ago, but we ended up in Pinetop instead. My brother lived there for a year and had enough and left.
We looked in Chaparral Pines and otherwise mostly outside of Payson with more land. Star Valley, Pine, Strawberry, Tonto Village, and anything private along Control Road. I can't even remember the realtor who we were talking to but i'd imaging anyone will be dialed in as it is not a very big area.
Let me add we are now in crunch time. Our place in Oklahoma goes on the market Wednesday and we have moved the timeline up 1 year, which means as soon as school is done for this year ( in May sometime) we are moving west [emoji106][emoji202]
Just move to Tx already.
Thanks B. What do you mean ur brother had enough. Him or the area ???
I will add that if inmates there that weekend, I will buy a couple rounds at the watering hole [emoji202][emoji106]
Roosevelt lake can get nasty with a quickness. Its a very big lake and the wind rolls through there like a freight train. Personally i would put Apache Lake on top of the list, but its just a bitch towing in there. They do have a marina so ballers like you could just keep yore boat there
He is a bit younger and said everyone he met his ago either had 5 kids or was doing drugs.

Way to close for
Comfort. Move to Winslow or window rock. Although Petes place in star valley has awesome burgers.
Don't worry. Only way I will be close to you is passing through to the river or headed to the airport. [emoji202]
Actually there is a place in star vally that we like. [emoji106][emoji2]
Just buy in the Prescott area... That way... In a year you can tell me if you like it.
Cool. Now just sell the kids and you will be golden!!Update. Great news. My options have opened up. We will not be moving with animals. Jus two dogs.
Wife said sell all the farm animals and if we want to get more we can at a later time.
It's very hard to travel a long distance with two 1200 lb animals. [emoji202]
