Show Low Vacations, Tourism & Travel Information

Located on Mongollon Rim, Show Low still retains that 1800s mountain town feel with most of Show Low unchanged.  This alone is the reason why many people flock here every year to vacation, either with loved ones or their kids.  Show Low is very far away from city life (approximately 175 miles away from Phoenix), so don't expect to experience anything incredibly exciting here.  Instead, expect to have a relaxing, calm vacation in the Arizona wilderness.  Although this vacation spot isn't ideal for kids, it is a family friendly vacation for older kids, including teenagers.

Show Low itself is world renown for its beautiful scenery.  Lodging here is natural -- as in cabins and other natural lodging options -- so don't expect modern lodging here.  If you love the outdoors, pick a cabin or opt for old fashion tent camping.  Take your kids to the Carriage House for an interesting time.  If this bores them too much, a visit to a local restaurant should soothe their tempers.  There aren't many romantic options here, but the scenic lodging might change your mind.  If you need more romantic options, ask a local in town – they'll point you in the right direction.  Want more information?  Visit Show Low's website for more information about vacations, lodging, and other attractions in town.
