Two additional full-sized futons in the living room provide extra sleeping capacity. The cabin features two full bathrooms with flush toilets, sinks, and showers. The fully equipped kitchen includes a stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, cookware, dishes, and coffeepot. Climate control via air conditioning and heating makes the cabin comfortable year-round.

The surrounding Cochise Stronghold area offers world-class rock climbing and bouldering with routes ranging from 5.6 to 5.12, as well as excellent hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. The rugged granite formations, wooded slopes, and abundant wildlife create a spectacular natural setting.
