My friends and I really enjoyed our stay! Rachel was fairly easy to communicate with and we basically had no problems.The cabin is absolutely beautiful and the backyard was perfect for just sitting and enjoying nature. Perfect to just walk around and hike in the back. The cabin was very spacious in my opinion and all of us fit perfectly, everything we needed was there and we enjoyed ourselves very much! It was the perfect getaway for our girls trip!

It was a great place for the family to stay at while attending a wedding at Christopher Creek. Rachel was very quick to get back to me after I texted her late at night. No problem really, just a concern. Didn't impact our enjoyment of the trip at all.Nice reprieve from the heat as well.

Great get away!

We enjoyed our 4 night stay at this cabin in the woods. Very relaxing with campfires several nights and relaxing to sit under the gazebo in the relaxing chairs just visiting. Many things to do around there from going to pick up diamond rocks to fishing and swimming in near by lakes.

Nice cabin

Cute cabin with a good amount of space. Could honestly use a deep clean, it looks like it just gets a quick turnover clean between guests and that’s it (for example, lots of dust on top of the ceiling fan blades). But it’s nice, and the host is great at communicating, and it’s close to Payson and Horton Creek. Even the neighbors are nice and friendly. Would stay again.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Jul 2022
Thank you for your review, we will absolutely address this issue with the fan blade and make sure they are dust free for every visitor. The home always has at least a day between visitors allowing for a thorough clean in between, I apologize again for the dust on the fan blade. Hope to see you again!

Great rental

As described, forest right up against back of property. No issues with cleanliness or house amenities. Word of warning if it's raining a lot the nearby roads can be a pretty bad, but our van is very low to the ground.
