Short-term rentals: county permit

Coconino County rules; HOA allows them, per a 2024 announcement

Tovar Springs is in unincorporated Coconino County, so the County's short-term rental ordinance applies: a $250 annual permit, an Arizona TPT license, notice to neighbors with a 24-hour contact, at least $500,000 in liability insurance, and no events. Since January 2026, a newly finished ADU can be rented short-term only if the owner lives on the property. A 2024 announcement from a real estate agent stated that the HOA will allow short-term rentals. The recorded CC&Rs weren't available online in September 2026 to confirm any conditions, so they come first if rental income is part of the plan.

Getting around

I-17 and Kachina Trail into Flagstaff

From the model home on Asi Va Spring Trail, Bashas' at Woodlands Village, Sprouts, and Target are about 10 minutes away; Safeway on Plaza Way, Natural Grocers, and Walmart about 12; Whole Foods and Sam's Club about 14. Pulliam Airport is about 5.3 miles, NAU about 7.9, downtown about 9.9, and Flagstaff Medical Center about 10.7.


The Highlands at Tovar Springs sits on a roughly 40-acre parcel in Kachina Village, north of Tovar Trail between I-17 and the Forest Highlands wastewater treatment area, beside Upper and Middle Tovar Springs. The plan dates to 2008 under the name Kachina Highlands, and MLS listings still record it as Kachina Highlands Phase 1. After the County Board of Supervisors denied a request to raise the count to 173 homes (later revised to 158), the approval stayed at 130 single-family homes on lots of at least 5,000 square feet.

Tovar Springs gives buyers something rare south of Flagstaff: a brand-new home in the pines on district water and sewer. We compare each plan and homesite against Kachina Village resale so the premium for new is clear.

Only five homes have closed here so far, all in the last twelve months: between $763,700 and $915,000, with a median of $827,500. The typical home was about 1,900 square feet on about 6,800 square feet of land, built in 2025 or 2026, and all five showed the $120 monthly HOA. With so few sales, each new closing moves these numbers, so current listings and builder pricing matter more than the median.

MLS listings record the builder as Mark Hancock Development Corp.; Mark Hancock chairs Camelot Homes, and sales run through The Bower with Silverleaf Realty. Plans include the Oak (1,597 square feet), Ponderosa (1,897), Sycamore (2,042), Juniper (2,209), Spruce (2,250), Alder (2,460), Pine (2,659), and Cypress (3,234), in one- and two-story designs with 2- or 3-car garages.

What makes this neighborhood unique

Tovar Springs is new construction inside Kachina Village: modern floor plans, a $120 monthly HOA with courts, a pavilion, and trails, and KVID water and sewer rather than wells or septic, about 10 minutes from Flagstaff's grocery stores. It is still a young community with only five closings so far, so the plan leans on builder pricing, Kachina Village resale comps, and the County's rules.
