I often get inquiries that ask what
amenities the town of Happy Jack has to offer. The reality is
that Happy Jack is not really a town, it is more accurately a
ZIP code - 86024.
While we do have the store, gas
station, cafe, post office and garage located at Long Valley,
the nearest "towns" are Winslow to the North and
Pine/Strawberry to the South on Hwy
87.
When we speak of Happy Jack we are
mainly talking about an area from the store at Long Valley
North about 15 miles to Mogollon Ranch and East on FH3/Lake
Mary road to FS 211 Road. While it may sound confusing, it
really is simple. If you would like a general map of the area,
please let me know and I can email one to
you.
Happy Jack is a number of
developments located in the beautiful Coconino National Forest.
Superb fishing and hunting opportunities abound. Our resident
Elk herd is fantastic and one of my favorite hobbies is
cruising the Long Lake road just before dark and watching the
Elk heading for water and feed. They are really incredible
animals.
We have areas with strict HOA's and
areas that are more eclectic and independent.
Lots are 3/4 of an acre or more depending on
the development. Very tall
Ponderosa pines are
common. If you are looking for a retreat from the valley heat
or the daily grind of city life, you are looking for Happy
Jack.
If you have any questions,
please do not hesitate to call or email
me.
