Hull Cabin
Hull Cabin provides a unique opportunity to stay in a historic cabin as part of Arizona's Rooms with a View cabin rental program.
Located just one mile south of the Grand Canyon, Hull Cabin is the oldest surviving historic cabin near the Grand Canyon’s South Rim. This rustic cabin was built in the late 1880s by the Hull brothers, who maintained a sheep ranch. The cabin was acquired by the Forest Service in 1907 for use as a ranger station. George Reed was the ranger and lived in the cabin at that time. In 1985, the cabin was listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
Hull Cabin is located in a secluded stand of mature ponderosa pine trees. The location provides easy access to 360° views from Grandview Lookout Tower; hiking, equestrian and mountain biking opportunities on the Arizona Trail; and fishing at Russell Tank. The small Hull Tank, located on the cabin grounds, is a prime watering hole for wildlife including elk, mule deer, black bear, wild turkey, javelina, and numerous birds and raptors.
