Thank you for staying with us, Linda! We hope to see you soon
Well outfitted house in a great location. Would stay again if at this location. Property owner was very responsive to any questions we had. Comfy bed in a quiet area.
We loved our stay. The property, the furnishings and neighborhood are very beautiful. We slept great and enjoyed hanging out as a family. Just a tiny bit of feedback to make it even more amazing…awning in the backyard to stop the furniture from get soaked by the rain and better shower heads. Thank you so much for a lovely stay.
This place was perfect for us. Close to town, but woods around to see wildlife. This placed was furnished with everything you would need. It was modern and neat and clean. We will be staying here again.

Thank you for visiting our place in Payson and for your patience regarding the televisions, now we are set!
Property was very nice. The kitchen was better stocked than any other VRBO I've stayed in. Location was excellent. Having the garage to park in was a great perk.
Property was perfect for our needs. Hosts were very responsive and promptly addressed any questions we had. Great location near two golf courses and close to town. Quiet neighborhood was perfect for morning runs.

About the host
Hosted by Sondee Jeffries
David and I are from the Pacific Northwest, living in Tacoma Wa. In addition to traveling, we love golfing, hiking, snowboarding, spending time with friends and family, and enjoying a nice bottle of wine.
We raised four children and have always enjoyed traveling together, which is part of what inspired us to create a place where others can spend time together and make memories of their own.
As hosts, we want you to feel comfortable and at home, and we’re always happy to help if you need anything during your stay.
Why they chose this property
The number one reason we chose Payson is simple, it’s absolutely STUNNING. Pair that with the wooded area just steps from the back patio, and this property felt like a no-brainer for us.
We fell in love with the neighborhood for its peaceful mountain setting, beautiful pines, and the quiet surroundings. One of our favorite things is sitting outside, taking in the view and watching for elk, deer, and other wildlife that wander through the wooded area steps away from the back patio.
What makes this property unique
What makes our property special is the combination of a peaceful mountain setting and the care we put into making it feel comfortable and welcoming. The wooded area just beyond the back patio gives guests a beautiful place to relax, with frequent sightings of elk, deer, and other wildlife.
We also take pride in keeping the home clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully stocked so guests have what they need during their stay. Our goal is to create a retreat that feels easy, comfortable, and cared for from the moment you arrive.
