The Pine Chalet, in Pine, Arizona, located in the Tonto national forest, is a mountain cabin retreat. Offering expansive and spectacular views of the forested mountains of northern central Arizona and the breathtaking, scenic and startling features of the Mogollon Rim.

The picturesque mountain community of Pine, Arizona, is located in North Central Arizona. Is at the base of the Mogollon rim at an elevation of 5,367 ft (1,636 m) with a Zip Code 85544. The pace is unhurried and relaxing. Enjoy the cool air among the tall ponderosa pines trees during the day and the star filled skies in the evening.

Take advantage of all that the area has to offer. Visit spectacular Tonto Natural Bridge. Fish the nearby Rim Lakes. Go horseback riding through the National forest, or meander through the forest on scenic hiking trails. For serious hikers, there are wilderness trails that continue for as far as fifty miles.

Relax and enjoy the awesome views, see Elk, Deer and other wildlife from the decks, driveway or inside the cabin from the many windows. Visit the many shops along Main Street. Check out the sites by hiking, fishing, canoeing or touring the area by car. Take in live music at the local Taverns for some good times. Spend the night gazing at the Brilliant Star Lights and see how many Shooting Stars you can spot.

The Pine Chalet is a furnished 3,400 square foot cabin, sitting on 1/2 acre of land, that has 3 distinct levels. The Upper Level, the Main Level and a Walk Out Basement Level.

The Main Level, is a open floor plan, hosting the Living room, Dining room and the Fully Equipped Kitchen. These gathering areas and all the decks on this level have expansive and breathtaking views out to the forested mountains and the spectacular vistas of the Mogollon Rim.

We had a blast. Easy to find, close to enough to town but still traditional cabin vibes. We enjoyed the views of the forest from the front deck. Plenty of beds for the family, we'll be back for sure. Thanks for having us.

Me and Tracy’s weekend

The owners of this property were very easy to contact and very pleasant to deal with. The property is very well-maintained and beautiful. The kitchen was stocked with all the utensils and cooking ware that we needed. The best part about this property is the view from the outdoor patio. The view is completely unobstructed by buildings or homes. All you can see is trees mountains and sky. The mornings we were there we had Elk walking all around the property. They were exciting to see. I will recommend this property to anyone I can. I will definitely return!

Awesome views from front deck; property needs attention; would not return

The property is located up on a hill, and the views from the front deck are simply amazing. That certainly is the highlight of the property. Unfortunately, the deck is badly in need of restoration and the patio benches on the deck are literally falling apart. The owners or property management have put towels down on some of the benches, presumably so that guests do not get splinters. It is a shame that the views that are so beautiful come from a deck that is in desperate need of restoration. Overall, the cleanliness of the house was good. Stay, we could not find a corkscrew/wine opener, nor could we find a cutting board, and the utensils were of a complete mishmash, with the majority of the state/cutting knives badly dulled. The Wi-Fi was top-notch .The downstairs is a good set up for kids so they can have .their area. I only showered in the upstairs master bath shower, but the showerhead was absurdly bad. There was no stream of water instead showerhead kindness spit out the water and traveled about 10 inches. There is no dumpster on site, so you actually have to take your trash into town and to have it thrown away. You pay $5 per bag regardless of the size so if you go that route take very large outdoor trash bags to stuff your kitchen trash bags into to you don't have as many trash bags – the other option is to take your trash with you. The owner/property managers recommend you take your trash to "Uncle Tom's" – really ?!? This is 2022, but it also tells you a lot about attitudes in this region of the state, unfortunately sad but true commentary. At least the business next door has the decency to have a big sign out front advising to "BOYCOTT UNCLE TOM'S" There is only one bathroom on the main floor to serve two-bedrooms and all of the guests who are spending time in the living room, dining area, or kitchen. The owners did provide us some extra time to check out which was. Unfortunately, we forgot to pack up our Amazon fire stick, and as I write this review 3 weeks from when we checked in, I have neither received my Amazon fire stick nor received any communication that it has actually been sent. Did receive a text message saying something about an emergency, which I understand happened but, come on it has been almost 3 weeks since we left. Pine Arizona is not as high up as Flagstaff, so the temperatures were approaching 100°. Flagstaff was 10° cooler and you don't have to worry about encountering a business called Uncle Tom's.

Easter Family Vacation

Our family had an enjoyable Easter at this property. There were 17 of us that came in six different cars. The driveway is a little steep and it first we wondered if we would all fit but it opened up very wide at the top and all six cars fit. The sleeping arrangements were split between the three levels. We slept four in the very top level, four in the middle or main level, and nine in the basement area. Everyone had a bed and it was adequate with a restroom on each floor. The home was extremely clean when we arrived and we tried very hard to leave it as we found it. My compliments to the owners and their workers for keeping it in such good shape. The backyard was perhaps our favorite area as we made use of the fire pit and many assorted chairs to sit around in the evening while roasting marshmallows. The terraced area in the backyard made for a perfect Easter egg hiding spots as well as relaxing. The large dining room table made for a great place to play games and gather while others enjoy the nearby couches in the comfortable living room while watching a show or chatting. That was a bonus that all 17 of us could be in the same area relaxing and doing what we liked best. Thank you for a very memorable weekend!

We spent Christmas at this wonderful cabin! It was warm and cozy, gave all the Christmas feels! Felt like I was in a Hallmark movie! The fireplace was an absolute wonderful addition! We had many families among our family in this cabin, we had plenty of room and felt so at home. The cabin is in pristine condition and very clean. The views from the balcony are absolutely gorgeous! We definitely want to return again. We will remember this Christmas forever and how it would have not been as unforgettable without this Cabin and all the memories it brought!

Needs Maintenance

We were 5 families (10 adults and 10 kids) and stayed in the property for 2 nights and 3 days. Here are the pros and cons of our stay: Pros - The view from the deck is beautiful, the owner was always quick to communicate and the multiple elk sightings in and around the property was a pleasant surprise. Cons - Unlike what the listing says, the property has only 4 bedrooms (to me a bedroom should have a door. A tiny loft or large basement with single beds don't count as bedrooms). It is ideal only for 3 families or 6 - 12 guests and no more. The cabin has some safety hazards. The creaky deck and unstable wood rail on the deck were a concern. Three kids got hurt because of metal bed frames in the basement. Shower heads in bathrooms need replacement as water slowly trickles out of them and water in general drains slow. The home furnishings are old and probably need an upgrade.

Excellent Property for Vacation, and Rest

We enjoyed every moment at this property. We rented this property for the second time, and we found that owner upgraded a lot of things. Two new ac units were installed to cover few rooms which are NOT properly covered by central ac. Huge living space, and a lot of beds, ideal for big groups like us. We are around 20 people, even after 20 people, we felt that we had a lot of rooms. The best part of this property is the location, it is located at the top of the hill, so we had beautiful scenic views around us. It is also located very near to the wood, so very quiet. We were there for 3 nights, we found elks just at the frontyard almost every days. Very nice experience. Kudos to the owner to keep the property nice and clean. Thanks...

About the host

Hosted by The Pine Chalet Owners Since 2005, Jeri & Dan

Host profile image
Jeri and Dan have been members of VRBO / Homeaway family from its beginning in 1996.

Like most people we know, we are both transplants from other States. Dan, was born, raised, and graduated from college in Wisconsin and moved to Tempe, Arizona December 1985. Jeri, was born, raised, and graduated from college in New Mexico and moved to Tempe, Arizona July 1986.

We meet by a mutual friend and started dating in 1987. Our first backpack trip together was in March of 1988 and it was to Fossil Creek, we fell in love with the surrounding area. We have hiked and camped in the Tonto National Forrest, especially around the Pine / Strawberry area, for many years before purchasing our cabin. The short drive to escape the Phoenix summer heat was the major component of selecting the Pine / Strawberry area.

We both love the outdoors; biking, hiking, fishing, canoeing, white water rafting, backpacking, and camping. We have hiked, backpacked and camped at Fossil Creek and the Grand Canyon many times. We fell in love, and got married at the Grand Canyon National Park in 1991, out on the South Rim.

We purchased our cabin in Strawberry, Arizona in March 1996, and have loved every minute of it. We rented our cabin in Strawberry until 2005 through VRBO / Homeaway. In 2005 we decided to purchase a second cabin in Pine, Arizona, 3 miles south of Strawberry, as our one and only cabin rental property. The Pine Chalet is the name we gave our cabin and that is how it all began.

Why they chose this property

'The Pine Chalet'

A hop, skip and jump away from the Valley of the Sun.

Location, Location, Location.

Our drive to The Pine Chalet is just 1 hour 15 minutes from our home in the valley of sun, and our first stop light is in Payson. The cabin is also just a 1 hour 30 minute drive to the Sky Harbor Airport.

The Pine Chalet's expansive and spectacular views of the forested mountains of the Tonto National Forrest got us at first sight.

We enjoy:
+ Fishing and canoeing
+ ATV riding and mountain biking
+ Meander through the forest on the many scenic hiking trails without having to get in a car to drive to a trail head.
+++ Got us at fist sight too.

We like having a 5 minute drive to the heart of Pine. Spending the evening gazing at the Brilliant Star Studded Night Lights to finish off an awesome day, got us at first sight as well.

What makes this property unique

'The Pine Chalet'
We love that we can share The Pine Chalet with our large families and friends under one roof to make awesome memories, spring, summer, fall, and winter.

Thank You,
Jeri & Dan
