Wonderful House

My husband and son in law work the rodeo every year so my daughter, grandson and myself came up too. I instantly loved the porch!! I spent most of my time with my grandson there. The house was very cozy, clean and had everything that we needed. Jon was quick to respond when we had questions. We appreciated the welcoming basket and the fudge! The beds were comfortable and all appliances/electronics that we used worked perfectly. I highly recommend this house and would stay there again.

Great Place for Work and Relaxing

My husband and I were in town visiting my mom who lives nearby. We needed a place where we could do some work and relax when we weren't visiting with family. This place fit the bill and more! Everything was lovely and the welcome basket a special treat! We will definitely stay again when in the area.

Hidden Trails Retreat

We really enjoyed our stay and the Hidden Trails Retreat in Payson. It was a lovely home, very clean, well stocked, nicely decorated in a quiet neighborhood near town and the hiking trails that we love. The hosts were great, very informative, pleasant to deal with, and thoughtful making us feel welcome. We definitely recommend this vacation home and hope to stay there again in the future.

Payson adventure

House is centrally located for exploring Payson, Pine and Strawberry. House is very comfortable, was decorated for Halloween, giving you a feeling that you’re staying at a family member homestead not a VRBO plus is stocked to the Hilt with supplies for cooking, making sundaes and goodies baskets for humans & doggies. The backyard is beautifully decorated, great place to relax and enjoy the fresh air. Hosts are exceptional and should be cloned!! They are wonderful individuals.

Peaceful Dog Friendly Place

We wanted a nice little getaway from the heat of Sun City, AZ & we were not disappointed. This was our first VRBO & we got spoiled. They had a little welcome basket & some waters & fudge in the fridge when we arrived. They had all the condiments & spices you could ever ask for & even supplied plenty of coffee as well. We loved sitting out on the front porch & loved the gate to enclose our dog as well. It was in such a peaceful location. We really enjoyed our time there. The Hosts just thought of everything.
