This cabin is tucked away behind lots of green foliage - giving you much privacy as you enjoy the beautiful creek and scenery. We had a lovely stay. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked and newly remodeled (it seemed like). The beds were comfy and the outdoor space was a lovely place to sit and enjoy the creek and let the kids play. I did have a difficult time turning on fans/lights and one outlet didn't work. If we go again, I'd ask for instructions on the overhead fans/lights. Other than that - very nice.

Well kept cabin in a densely forested area. It is sort of a cabin neighborhood area. Beautiful trail area right down the road. We saw elk walk onto the property peacefully. The creek is right outside, maybe a bit treacherous for really young kids, but perfect for kids 7-12. Its pretty rugged terain up there but beautiful if that's what you're looking for. You won't get the feeling of full isolation, as it is part of a small neighborhood with a small general store nearby.

Beautiful and serene

I stayed here the weekend of my wedding, it was a gorgeous place to get ready for my big day and sitting out by the creek while I wrote my vows was incredible! Love this little piece of heaven.

Great getaway

This cabin was great for our 3 day break from the Phoenix heat. Less than 10 minute walk from the general store and just a couple minutes more to reach The Landmark! The cabin was exactly as described, clean and cozy with our own private access to the creek. Our family enjoyed the stay and we would rebook again in the future.

There was no dish sponge so we bought one, the kitchen towels were stained, the bed comforter had hair on it possibly pet hair. Other than those few things we enjoyed our stay.

Great location! Beautiful property grounds, elk and squirrels abundant. Well stocked kitchen and baths. Drip coffee maker, toaster and more. Comfortable beds. Cabin stayed cool no ac, but ceiling fans and additional fans if needed. Our warmest day was 89 degrees and cabin was cool.

The stay was amazing! We chose this place again this year because of how amazing it was last year! Everything was fabulous! The host was absolutely fantastic and very accommodating and easy to communicate to! The cabin has everything you could possibly need to cook in! It’s a cozy, very cute cabin! They have done a lot of updates to this cabin and a lot of work into it! The creek is always running, and the little general store down the way has all you could need, including AMAZING FUDGE, and wine! the host made their patio amazing for hanging out under the stars with your family! We highly recommend this VRBO and hope to return next year!

Nature lovers dream. Great location. Elk all over the place, even roam right on the property. Stairs right down to the creek. Squirrels, ducks, birds...you name it. Some good food places nearby. A few hiccups with the property management company but the owner was fantastic and stepped in and fixed them. In all the years renting VRBO's this is one of our all time favorites.

Amazing place to stay!!!

Right on the creek. This Place has history, character and serenity! We have been coming up for 20 years to Christopher Creek but always camped, this time we got this cabin for our 25th Anniversary. We were quite impressed! Cabin was clean and a great bed. Located right off the creek so we of course had to rock jump down the creek. Ate meals on the chairs by the creek. Even Walked the roads to experience the history of the cabins. Definitely staying here again! Highly recommend!!
