My friends and I really enjoyed our stay! Rachel was fairly easy to communicate with and we basically had no problems.The cabin is absolutely beautiful and the backyard was perfect for just sitting and enjoying nature. Perfect to just walk around and hike in the back. The cabin was very spacious in my opinion and all of us fit perfectly, everything we needed was there and we enjoyed ourselves very much! It was the perfect getaway for our girls trip!

Thank you for the lovely review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the clean space, friendly neighbors, and peaceful setting among the pines. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we appreciate your kind words about our responsiveness. You’re welcome back anytime! 🌲😊
Such a great cabin. The neighborhood was small and cozy. We drove to the payson diamonds nearby. The hosts were cert responsive and kind. We definitely will be back
It was a great place for the family to stay at while attending a wedding at Christopher Creek. Rachel was very quick to get back to me after I texted her late at night. No problem really, just a concern. Didn't impact our enjoyment of the trip at all.Nice reprieve from the heat as well.

We enjoyed our 4 night stay at this cabin in the woods. Very relaxing with campfires several nights and relaxing to sit under the gazebo in the relaxing chairs just visiting. Many things to do around there from going to pick up diamond rocks to fishing and swimming in near by lakes.

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay! We leave 4 hand towels in each bathroom and 6 towels in the drawers in the kitchen and we left 2 rolls of paper towels which I show all were used on your visit. We leave additional towels in the laundry room and will leave more in the future! Thank you for the feedback!

Thank you so much for your heartwarming review! We’re so glad the home provided a cozy and comfortable retreat during the snowstorm. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the beautiful backyard views and the friendly neighbors (and their sweet pup!). We’d love to welcome you back anytime! ❄️🏡🐾
Beautiful backyard view
very nice and clean home
only cons (which have nothing to do with the renter)
I have Verizon and barley had service
and there is not much to do close by
but if you want to just relax and enjoy nature this place is for you

Thank you so much Kermela for your review! I wish you would have connected to the starlink internet we have and It would have resolved your issue. Thanks again your group was awesome!
Cute cabin with a good amount of space. Could honestly use a deep clean, it looks like it just gets a quick turnover clean between guests and that’s it (for example, lots of dust on top of the ceiling fan blades). But it’s nice, and the host is great at communicating, and it’s close to Payson and Horton Creek. Even the neighbors are nice and friendly. Would stay again.

Thank you for your review, we will absolutely address this issue with the fan blade and make sure they are dust free for every visitor.
The home always has at least a day between visitors allowing for a thorough clean in between, I apologize again for the dust on the fan blade. Hope to see you again!
As described, forest right up against back of property. No issues with cleanliness or house amenities. Word of warning if it's raining a lot the nearby roads can be a pretty bad, but our van is very low to the ground.
