The place is soooo cute, it was easy to find, and my kids loved playing outside here. Beds were super comfortable & we all slept great. They had some board/card games we were able to play in the evening together and another night we watched a movie. My boys gave it a 10/10 and teens are hard to impress!

Just what I needed, and more!

I was looking for a quiet, get-away-from-it-all location for the weekend. I did not know I would also get a home beyond my expectations! Hosts Linda and Leon are kind and responsive. Outside: nice grill, gorgeous deck, privacy, well-desgined and well-built home with guests in mind. East Clear Creek is close and a beautiful place to visit with hiking trails and a ranger station lookout tower! Thank you for the wonderful stay. I'll be back!

The coziest getaway

Linda and Leon have such a gem in the Forrest. They keep it immaculate, and have all the amenities you could need. Me and my husband plus two kids really enjoyed how much there was to do outdoors. BBQ, firepit, playground, basketball court, and the list goes on. Definitely a great stay for those with kids. Inside was so cozy and our daughter loved the loft bed. The WiFi did not work and we had no cell signal which we were not as prepared for but it actually turned out perfect to be totally ‘unplugged’ for the weekend. Thank you for sharing such a sweet spot.

Better than it looked in the listing

Was larger and prettier than it looked in the listing. Very cozy and warm with nice hiking around. Was very clean and the owner had even left homemade cookies out! (Which were delicious, thank you!) If I had to nitpick, my only suggestion would be if the owners added more curtains (there was only one over the bedroom window). It was a bit unnerving at night knowing anything outside could see in. Either way it was an extremely pleasant experience and great getaway. Would absolutely go back =)

Beautiful Cottage

We just returned from a weekend trip to Happy Jack. I wish we could have stayed longer. The cottage was so inviting and adorable. You can tell there was a lot of thought put into the construction. For example, there is a beam across the kitchen where the wiring for the ceiling fan and lights were hidden. The ladder going up to the loft was very safe. The kitchen had everything you may need. The bed was very soft! The entire cottage is extremely clean. The owners kindly ask that you remove your shoes when inside which I respect and appreciate. Overall, a lovely stay.

Wonderful little hideaway

I'll start off by saying that this hidden gem looks even better in person. The pictures don't do it justice. Literally everything you need is supplied and the cabin is spotless! There's great attention to detail provided by the host and they are always a phone call away if you need anything. The host even invited my wife and I over to enjoy their campfire. I really want to give this listing five stars but I have two concerns. The hot water for the shower is supplied by a tankless hot water heater. Once you get the shower temp to your liking; the water temperature fluctuates as the system cycles on and off. You may get very hot water one moment and cool water the next. We found that it's best to leave the water running throughout the whole shower. We hate wasting water in doing so though. The second issue is the mattress on the queen bed. It needs replacing as the center of the mattress is sunk in and the body support is long gone. My wife ended up sleeping on the couch for three nights. All that being said; we would definitely rent this cabin again.

Wedding weekend away

We had a wedding to attend close by and we found this gem of a place! So worth the drive from NE Mesa too the beautiful pines. Quiet and peaceful! The hosts are just so lovely! Heaters were on when we arrived! Cafe lights and fire place was on and a little plate of chocolate chip cookies! Everything was so clean and cozy! We enjoyed every minute! We didn’t want to leave! We will definitely be back!
