About the host

Hosted by Rachel and Jacob Wuertz

Host profile image
My husband and I purchased this cabin to offer our family a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city—a place to unwind, reconnect, and truly experience nature. Both of us have busy weekly jobs, but our shared passion for real estate inspired us to pursue our dreams. This cabin represents that dream, and we're excited to share it with others who seek the same sense of peace and adventure.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this area for so many reasons. The feeling of seclusion yet being close enough to downtown Payson to enjoy the town’s charm, makes it the perfect escape. Being directly on the forest allows us to step right outside for riding, hiking, and taking in the endless, breathtaking views. We love our wonderful neighbors and the sense of community here. Plus, having easy access to lakes, creeks, and Diamond Point makes every day an adventure!

What makes this property unique

Our absolute favorite part of the cabin is that it backs directly to the forest. Waking up each day surrounded by hundreds of towering pine trees and experiencing wildlife right in our backyard is truly magical.

We love that our cabin gives you the cozy, authentic log cabin feel while still providing the simple luxuries we’ve all come to appreciate. It’s the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, making every stay relaxing, adventurous, and unforgettable.
