My girlfriends and I celebrated my birthday with a ski trip to Sunrise and we had a wonderful stay at this cabin for 3 nights. The kitchen had everything we might need and the fire was so wonderful to sit next to in the evenings. Kathy was so accommodating and a breeze to work with. We would recommend this place to our friends!

The cabin was warm, cozy and sooooooo enjoyable. It had all the comforts of home. We spent hours sitting on the deck overlooking the pond. So relaxing. We plan on renting this property again.

Our family and friends decided last minute to spend a few days in the high country over Spring Break. Looking for a place to accomodate all 10 of us and at last minute notice was not easy but Ten Bears Cabin just what we needed. They were quick to respond and willing to accomodate. The cabin was perfect for our needs. We lacked nothing and it was a great home away from home. We look forward to enjoying this cabin again. Thanks so much for everything!

Our stay at Ten Bears Cabin was great! The cabin is very well equipment and it is surprisingly roomy and cozy, it was perfect for our families with small children. Our dogs and kids really enjoyed the fenced backyard with the nice view of the lake. This cabin has everything you need. The kitchen had all the cooking utensils we needed and more. All the bedrooms are very comfortable and we really liked the decor. The cabin is in great condition and very clean! This was a very memorable trip for us and we can't wait to do it all over again this summer :-)

Our winter get-away

My family had an excellent time staying at your cabin. Our young children (7 and 4) loved discovering all the cabin "touches" that gave it a cabin feel such as the bear decorations, fishing motifs, moose pics, etc. It was so different from our desert home that it was a nice break from our routine. Our stay was comfortable and it had everything we needed and was very cozy. While we missed seeing much snow while we were there, we did find a hiking trail where the locals were sledding with enough snow to make it fun for our kids. The pond next to the cabin was fun to explore, complete with ducks. There are some cabins nearer to the house than we expected, but the residential street is very quiet and you still feel like the cabin is an oasis from town. Thank you for your generosity in opening up your home to us and being so great to work with!

Summer Cool Pines Relaxation

We escaped the heat of The Valley to stay in Ten Bears with our two teen aged kids for seven nights. We especially enjoyed the deck where we could relax with our coffee in the morning. Each night we grilled delicious meals on the gas grill and ate outside under romantic tiki-torches on the porch rail. Afternoon Monsoon rains often forced us inside where we were just as happy. There is a great dining room table where we enjoyed playing games together as a family. If you go, bring dog with you! Although we did tire of the dog being wet (between the rain and swamp spots from pond spillover), our dog had a great time romping in the fenced yard. The cabin isn’t as remote as we expected, but we spent most days hiking on nearby trails. The pictures don't lie; this is a beautiful home away from home. The rooms are decorated so sweetly. The cabin is clean and well stocked. Lots of towels, beautiful linens and plenty of pots & pans and dishes. The owner was terrific to work with. I’d recommend you visit this special locale. I bet it’s beautiful in winter… Thank you, Kathy!

Owner response:I appreciate all the comments from past guests. I just want to clarify our location: Our cabin is located within the city limits of Pinetop-Lakeside and not in a remote location in the woods. We have easy year-round access on paved roads and the conveniences of cable TV and natural gas. We are located near other cabins (most on half acre or acre lots) and a fishing pond. We are not on the main highway, but easily accessible - and no need for four-wheel drive!

We had a lovely, relaxing stay at Ten Bears Cabin. We were so happy to be able to bring our dog with us and he really enjoyed exploring the fenced backyard. We had everything we needed in the cabin. The king size bed in the upstairs bedroom was SO comfortable! We really appreciated the air conditioner to cool down the upstairs when it got a little warm in the afternoon. The deck is wonderful for drinking coffee in the cool morning in the sun and then have a cool drink in the shade in the afternoon. The cabin is close to shopping, restaurants, and antiquing and close to Show Low Lake and Woodland Lake. Thanks Kathy for making your cabin available!

What a lovely weekend we just had. The deck on the back of the house gave us great views of the pond and was a perfect place to while away a few hours with a good book. The cabin is lovely and spacious and clean!!! This isn't our first time we've stayed here and it won't be our last either.

We have stayed at this cabin before and really enjoy it. The cabin has everything we need for a weekend of skiing or a weekend of getting out of the heat. The cabin is cozy but has enough room and rooms for everyone to have a bit of peace and quiet. The deck on the back is very nice.
