About this property

Privacy! One & 1/2 acre with wrap around deck. Backs the National Forest.

Looking to get away for the weekend or for a week? This 1800 sq. ft. cabin is nestled among tall Ponderosa Pines, some 100 years old! A taste of paradise is only about an hour and a half drive from Scottsdale.

The cabin is two stories, the main story being on the second
floor. There are two bedrooms upstairs, one with a queen bed
and the other with two twin beds. Upstairs there is also a
bathroom, family room and kitchen.
Downstairs there is another family room with another queen futon,
bathroom and laundry room. This is the perfect set up for two
couples or two families as it allows each some privacy. There are
two televisions and DVD players, one in the master bedroom and the
other in the downstairs family room. I have several movies you can borrow. WI-FI is also available.

The deck wraps around the entire second floor so you can
choose to sit in the sun or shade whichever you prefer. There is
a gas BBQ and a hammock you can use. The cabin has three
fireplaces; two wood and one gas. The wood ones are in the
upstairs family room and master bedroom and the gas one is in
the downstairs family room. There is a small fee for wood or you
can bring your own. Don't forget to bring marshmallows to roast!

The cabin sits on an acre and a half of land and backs the
National Forest. It is quite private and quiet. If you walk
into the forest about a quarter of a mile at dusk and you are
quiet and lucky, of course, you could see elk, particularly
in the summer and fall. I have seen up to 20 at a time! At the
very least, you are certain to hear bugling in the middle of the
night if you wake up.

I have a book there that gives you all kinds of ideas as to what
to do; hikes, fishing, swimming holes, restaurants, shops, etc.
Everything you need is there. All you need to bring is your
clothes and food.

Enjoyed our stay. The wildlife were very entertaining, and we appreciated the firewood and squirrel peanuts. There was a good feeling of privacy on the wraparound deck. We did groan with the stairs up to the deck and the spiral staircase, but that's just us (in our 80's). Would suggest a coffee table in the living room next to the kitchen - need a place to set down drinks while enjoying the fireplace. Overall, a great getaway.

Away from the heat!

Nestled in the pine trees made it very private.Centrally located between Strawberry and Payson and close to Pine.The deck around the house on the second floor was an A. Sitting on the deck in the mornings and evenings was wonderful! The deck also kept the dogs safe from running around the grounds down below. Nice stay.

Peaceful beauty

Enjoyed our stay immensely. A little bit of snow made it wonderful. Enjoyed watching the birds, the squirrels and feeding some elk that came through. What an experience. Crank up the fireplace and enjoy nature and the forest views. Very easy to get to but feels almost like you are in the middle of nowhere.

Great get-a-way!

What a wonderful cabin in the woods! Clean and well cared for with everything you could need. Close to the local grocery store but still tucked away in the pines. Beautiful surroundings and a great spot to hike behind the cabin. It’s a great set up for families and a very comfortable space. Our older dog loved the outdoor view on the second floor, although the spiral staircase to the lower level was a challenge. Pine is a great little town with some great lunch and dinner spots. We had a great time. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home Rhonda!

Beautiful woodland retreat

My partner and I (and his dog) had a wonderful stay at this lovely get-away, a place which was well-kept, with plenty of amenities, which the delightful bonus this time of year of getting to see elk very, VERY closely! Mere feet from the property. That was so cool! If I had to make one concern known, it was that a nice shower can really help make a good vacation a great one, and the shower heads on the property offered mostly an aggressive mist, which was simultaneously a little staggering, plus the fact that a mist in the cool weather is extra chilly!

Amazing

This is our third time staying at Rhonda's cabin. We have tried out other places in Pine but we decided to come back to this place. You cannot beat the location. We absolutely love the property. We love that it sits on a huge lot and that it backs up to the forest. We love the wrap around deck. We actually had 24 elk show up one night and just hang out with us. It was incredible. Rhonda leaves you food to feed the animals and a chocolate bar to feed yourself. The house is clean. Plenty of blankets and towels. We always have a wonderful time there. We will be back again and again.

We had a great stay at the cabin! It was cute and cozy with all the amenities needed. We appreciated that there was no tv in the living room (only the bedroom) so we could cozy by the fire at night and enjoy each other's company. The wrap-around porch and view of the forest was our favorite. We hopped over the fence and took a nice stroll in the forest. I loved feeding the squirrels and birds from the deck and seeing deer and elk in the yard! It was also a quick 5 minute drive to restaurants and shops. We would definitely stay here again!

I loved this property, the cabin had everything we needed, but we really went for the land and it didn't let us down. The space around the house is very nice and secluded, there was a herd of Elk that would come by daily, they were very calm and not scared of us as long as we kept a respectful distance. We had dogs with us, they loved the wrap around deck, they had a great time playing in all the open space, we went across the fence into the forest and went exploring there, it was nice easy hiking that the dogs loved as well. If your dogs have long hair, you may want to put on booties, there are the round pickers that will get in their hair.

A Cabin with a Great Wildlife Experience

Private as it’s backed up to national forest. As others have indicated, the spiral staircase was a challenge for our dog, but the outside stairs that lead to the deck worked fine.The wildlife does not disappoint. We saw squirrels, woodpeckers and other birds, elk that came to the feeder and a few deer. The national forest is right behind the cabin and there are some good hiking trails that are easily accessible.Great experience overall and I would highly recommend the cabin.The host, Rhonda, was also great at responding to our communications.Stayed 3 nights in March 2025.

About the host

Host profile image
Stoney Hollow is my favorite place in the world. There is just something special about being there. It might be the tall pines and listening to the wind in the trees, or backing the National Forest, or feeding the squirrels, woodpeckers, hummingbirds or deer. I just know that I need to get away there every so often to rejuvenate. When you stay at Stoney Hollow you will realize that you are staying in my home and not a hotel. It is friendly, rustic and inviting. Welcome and enjoy!
