The Zane Grey Cabin was originally lost in the 1990 Dude Fire. While the previous edition of the cabin contained numerous exhibits, the rebuilt cabin is an exhibit in and of itself.
The cabin gives local residents and worldwide visitors the opportunity to learn more about Zane Grey and his place in history. It also provides a superior venue for school tours to allow students to learn about this area and Zane Grey.
From 1918 to 1929 western writer Zane Grey regularly spent time in Arizona, owning numerous pieces of land and helping immortalize Rim Country through books such as Under the Tonto Rim, Code of the West, and To the Last Man.
In these books, Grey put into words how everyone feels when they see the scenery of Rim Country, while also describing the way of life of pioneer families such as the Haughts.
The Rim Country Museum will continue to feature exhibits on Zane Grey and will soon be displaying pieces from the Oliver Collection. The Oliver Collection is an assortment of Zane Grey related items, many of which are from the original cabin site.
Zane Grey's Cabin is in of the award winning Green Valley Park area of Payson AZ.
