As temperatures start climbing into the triple digits, people in Tucson generally head for one of three places:
- Indoors
- To the lakes
- To the mountains
One of the beautiful things about living in Tucson is that all three are close by! (Okay, so indoors is always close by - whaddya want, its MY blog)
There are great getaways on the water within a short drive of 2 hours or so...and Mount Lemmon is even closer. In fact, you've seen it countless times - its the backdrop for most of the scenic photos you've seen of Tucson. Right in our own backyard is Coronado National Forest...with a 9,000 foot mountain! Ski Valley is the southernmost ski area in the United States.
For generations, Tucsonans have enjoyed cabins and summer homes on Mount Lemmon. Close enough to make it simple & easy - but worlds away as you breathe in the pine-scented air. Summerhaven is the community up in the forest, with shopping & dining venues at your disposal.
People have built a variety of cabins to take advantage of the cool offerings of Mount Lemmon, winter or summer.
Most of the homes are newer, since the fires of 2003 burned a good number of Summerhaven homes. Rebuilding the homes and businesses on Mount Lemmon has proceeded at a good clip since it is such a popular area.
