Cute cabins just far enough away from the chaos of Phoenix

It was a nice midweek getaway filled with peace, tranquility, fresh air, and beautiful views were an added plus! Will definitely be back again!

Cozy and fun

This was a cute little cabin in a wonderful location. It was mostly as pictured and described, well stocked for the most part and host was responsive for the rest. It’s a strip of several cabins very close together and although we didn’t have any trouble with noisy neighbors or infringed privacy, it could’ve easily been a factor. The game room and playground was fun for the kids and the forest access was nice for exploring. Each cabin only has 1 assigned parking space but there’s some extra room for additional vehicles and I even had room to park our trailer and SXS. I took a star off because underneath all the furniture was very dirty, even found a whole pile of pretzels under the bed upstairs and lots of chunks of dropped food under the couches. Otherwise it was great!

Charming getaway in the forest.

Husband and we wanted to get away for a few days. This was the perfect spot. The cabin is darling with forest decor. Every amenity you need, extra blankets, fans, shampoo and conditioner. Great location..quiet yet close to local eateries. Would highly recommend staying here, we will definitely be back. Thank you for having us!

Close contact

Cabins are pretty close together but all the guests were friendly. Not a lot of room in the living area but the front porch is nice to hang out at. Overall nice place to stay for a few days.

Exceeded our expectations

These cabins are adorable, clean & easy to find and access. Nearly everything you might have forgotten is provided and instructions for everything are very clear. I just have 2 suggestions. 1. I wish a small. Uncle of wood was included in the cost and left for the guests… along w paper or a starter. 2. I wish there was info/directions to nearby trails and activities left for the guests. I would recommend these cabins to anyone headed to this area!

Stay in the forest

The property was as advertised. Beautiful location adjacent to the forest. The common area was a little small. It wasn't a problem for the 3 of us with one child, but might be a little tight with 4 or more adults.

Spring Break, March 2021

We enjoyed staying here at Cabin #2. It ended up snowing the second day we were there and that was a great treat for our granddaughter and our dog. The cabin was cozy but comfortable and the cookware was tip top #1! Many times at rentals the cookware is bottom of the line but not here. We hope to come back with all our family and rent all 5 cabins!

Nice & Cozy

The cabin was nice and clean. It’s small, but I expected that. The game room was fun and a nice feature. There are two things that keep it from a 5-star review in my opinion. First, there is no dishwasher, so some time was spent doing dishes that could have been spent having fun. I also wondered how good a job the last guest did on the dishes before me. Second, the cabin is heated by a small gas wood stove with a blower. We were there in the winter and the blower blew most of the night and it’s kind of noisy so it made it tough to get to sleep. But we had fun and the cabin was nice overall.
