Book this place with confidence! I couldn't have asked for a better place to meet the needs of our stay in payson. I highly recommend this place. Communication was rock solid, instructions were very clear and there wasn't any unnecessary to do list upon checkout. I have absolutely zero bad to say. If I find myself in the area again, this will be the first place I look to book.

The most well equipped house I have yet to stay in! Very clean and organized. Very nice backyard to have a Happy Hour with a friend and play ball with your dog. It's a great location - very was close to parks, shopping and restuarants.Jon the host was very kind and responsive. Great stay for a family as there are lots of activities to do both at the house and in the surrounding neighborhood.Thank you!

great location. dog friendly with fenced back yard and front porch. local dog park within easy walking distance. close to an Elks lodge. all shopping and restaurants are close by. I enjoy cooking, the lighting in the cook area is dim, needs a little lighting under the cabinets. we have booked the home for the month of August, and I have favorite pot and pans which I will bring. there is plenty cook ware there, but it is dated. again great place, great location, oh did i say we booked in the month of August, that should tell you how much we enjoyed Hidden Trails Retreat!

The hosts have thought of everything you could need for your get-away! They strive to make you and your pet(s) enjoy your stay. Pets are an additional 50 fee (not refundable) which apparently “fell off” of the listing and came as a surprise. The hosts have said they’ve corrected with VRBO and let us check in a little early as a concession. Other than that, couldn’t have asked for more.

Very clean home and tons of entertainment options. A park is a very easy walk from the house which was a nice option for some outdoor fun without having to drive. The beds were very comfortable. The den does not have a door so if you need three bedrooms that are private, this might not work for you.

Hidden Trails Verbo was by far the nicest Verbo we’ve stayed at. A nice quiet neighborhood, relaxing home and backyard. It was clean and it was like being at home. The pictures on the website are exactly how the house is, which isn’t always the case. Jon our host always responded to our questions immediately. We also loved how pet friendly it is. The neighbors were nice as well. We highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a place in Payson! We loved everything about it.Dennis & Rhonda

In response to your review, we feel a score of 4/10 was highly irregular. According to other guest reviews, we consistently deliver an exceptionally clean home with every comfort of home in working condition to every guest. In fact, this is our goal. We provided this standard of excellence to you. You brought a dog, which you did not make a reservation for, and then denied that it was your dog or that he/she was staying there. When the dog was not picked up the first night, we tried to charge you a pet-cleaning fee. We do this so that every guest can get an exceptionally clean house. Again, you denied the dog was staying and did not pay the fee. Additionally, you decided to plug in your extremely large RV van into our house. As a result, the circuit and GFCI were blown. No explanation was given as to why this van was plugged into our house. We feel that you gave us a review based on being called out for the very unusual situations which you caused. For potential guests reading your review, we feel that because your review stands out so much among stellar reviews, they can understand why we felt compelled to write this response. Had we known what you were planning to do, we would not have accepted your reservation.

Amazing property. Comfortable stay all the way around. My only complaint is the knives in the kitchen were a bit dull, so if you plan on cooking most nights like we did it may be nice to get a decent knife. Other than that it was all great. Host was very communicative and laid out the town well in their guest book. Will for sure stay again.

We are glad that you had a great day and hope to see you again soon! A quick note… We do have sharp knives. The knife block of Henkel knives on the counter next to the toaster are very sharp. The ones you used were faberwear, and we replaced those with the Henkels… but we kept them under the counter for backup! We are happy to offer almost any amenity you can imagine and we even supply a knife sharpener that is easy to use in one of our drawers of utensils. We hope you’ll look forward to coming up and trying some chef skills in our kitchen again but with sharper knives next time! Thank you so much for staying and thank you for your review!

The host provided very helpful information prior to our arrival and responded quickly when we had questions. The home was very clean and the mattresses were very comfortable! They had a terrific coffee/tea station with many options as well as a snack station. The only draw back was the fact that we did not have control of the thermostat and although the host responded quickly to our requests, it was less than ideal. I still would highly recommend staying here!

The house was lovely! It had everything you could think of that you might need, especially in the kitchen, where they included a great coffee bar. The couch and beds were very comfortable. I really enjoyed sitting on the furniture on the front patio and listening to the wildlife. It's also a great place to bring kids. I had left mine at home, but I would love to visit again with my children. There were books, games, a PlayStation, and knick knacks that were child oriented to make it feel like a great family home! The home is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac where you can really sit and enjoy the neighborhood. The hosts were also wonderful about responding to our inquiries right away. I would definitely recommend this house as a great place to stay in Payson!

This is a true 10 out of 10 kind of vacation spot. Everything's provided and thoughtfully stocked, just bring your food, fire wood and family/friends. Enjoy lot's of games, patio furnature out back as well as on the front porch. All dishes, pots, pans, cooking utensils, sheets, blankets, pillows, toiletries, on & on... even codiments and citrus, drinking water... figurines placed throught for you to find. We couldn't find the hidden gumball machine, good luck to all. The house was very clean upon arrival and the neiborhood was very quiet during our stay. High recommendations and excellent communication with host !
