Need an escape from the warm, or rather, hot, weather in Arizona this late spring and through the summer? If you're not a snowbird and have to stay in the state during the hot-weather months, you'll probably need a way to escape from time to time. Sure, you can find a pool to cool off in, or may even have one in your backyard but if you want to take a weekend getaway, check out these waterfront retreats in Arizona:

1. Farm Cottage by the Creek, Cornville

If you enjoy nature, wineries, and water, spending time at this creekside farm cottage in Cornville is a must. Located on a working farm with views of Jerome, this 600-square-foot cottage will feel like your new home away from home. With one bedroom and one bathroom, this is a perfectly cozy space for two. Outside there's a bistro table where you can sit and watch birds as well as the creek. On the farm, you can visit the farm animals which include sheep, pigs, goats, cats, dogs, donkeys, and more. If you want to venture off the property, visit one of the area's many fine wineries or spend some time in nearby Jerome.

2. Luxury Glamping Creekside, Sedona

Who doesn't love a trip to Sedona? I love taking day trips here! Its otherworldly landscape of red rocks is utterly enchanting to me. While Sedona can get a bit crowded and touristy, especially downtown, there are ways to escape the crowds and feel off the grid for a bit. How about a glamping getaway in a luxury Lotus Belle tent set creekside? The tent includes a king bed, an open-air bathroom, and views of Cathedral Rock as well as Oak Creek.

3. Rainbow Lake Cabin, Pinetop-Lakeside

Head to Rainbow Lake in Pinetop-Lakeside and book a stay at this stunning waterfront retreat. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home is a roomy 3,000 square feet and is located within a gated community. There is a furnished deck overlooking the lake as well as a private dock. If you want to spend time out on the water and don't have your own watercraft, you can rent one of the kayaks or paddleboards for an additional fee. How nice would it be to have access to a gorgeous lake like this during the hot weather?

4. Waterfront Resort Living, Mohave Valley

Have you ever wanted to have your very own private beach? Well, you can experience just that at this waterfront home in Mohave Valley, AZ. This 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home can accommodate up to eight guests. So, gather your family or friends and head to this luxurious home on the Colorado River where you'll enjoy 152 feet of private beach. Lay out on the sand, go for a swim, or rent a jet ski or a boat to take out on the water. This is waterfront living at its finest!

5. On The Water In Havasu, Lake Havasu City

We can't have a list of waterfront retreats without mentioning Lake Havasu City, can we? On The Water In Havasu offers lake views from most places inside the home.
