Our group enjoyed a wonderful stay! The view from the living room was incredible, the bedrooms were very comfortable and the kitchen well appointed. It was quiet and the surrounding woods offered us Phoenician gals the ability to rest our eyes in nature. Our host was attentive and checked in with us often. I’d definitely return to this property in the future.

We had a great time in the house. The solitude was incredible. Elk, cows, coyote and even the Javalina showed up near the fenceline where we could see them from the deck. The house is a bit dated, and felt more rustic that we expected, but that didn't stop us from having a great time including the Rodeo in Payson.

Great property for a getaway. The hosts truly have thought of everything, including pet dishes for when you accidentally leave one at home. The deck was perfect for playing cards and games, picnicking, and just enjoying the perfect weather. Plenty of fenced space for your fur babies to play. Will definitely return.

Great family cabin

We loved our stay at this cabin. My four teens all had space to spread out with comfortable family areas for us to spend time together. The property was the perfect secluded cabin we were looking for and we even had elk come visit us every evening.
