About this property

***CUTE COZY CABIN IN THE PINES***PET FRIENDLY**FENCED YARD***

Located on a quiet, heavily treed street in breathtaking Lakeside, Arizona, Forest Haven Cabin provides the perfect mountain getaway for all types of guests, including individual families, large groups, honeymooners, friends on a ski vacation, and everything in between for a vacation rental!

On the main floor, enjoy two large bedrooms, one with a queen bed and private 1/2 bath, one bedroom with 2 bunk beds (sleeps 4), and sleeper sofa in the living room. A short jaunt upstairs takes you to a private master suite with a king bed and full bathroom. And if that isn’t enough, enjoy plenty of additional room for fun and games in the large bonus room downstairs featuring a pool table, ping pong table, wood burning stove, and big screen TV, perfect for watching movies after a long day outdoors! In the main living room you’ll find plenty of seating around the large rock fireplace, the ideal gathering place for the adults to relax and chat while the kids play in the large backyard. Guests can choose from one of two large decks to also sit and relax while listening to the wind whip through the lofty tops of the pine trees, or while enjoying the crisp mountain air while watching the stars light up the night sky. The cabin will sleep ten (or twelve if you maximize the sleep options). Note that the cabin does not have A/C but this is generally not an issue as even in in July/August the cabin area is generally cool.

At Forest Haven you’re just a short drive from many nearby amenities including Sunrise Ski Resort, multiple fishing lakes, great hiking and ATV trails, top area restaurants, antique stores, a movie theater, and tons more to do at 20-30 degrees cooler than Phoenix or Vegas. On-site amenities include high-speed WiFi, Roku TV, DVD player, board games, yard games, two BBQs (propane & a smoker), items for traveling infants and much more!

Our goal is to make you feel like part of our family from the moment you step foot into our cabin to the moment you check out. Check out our calendar find the perfect dates for your family mountain getaway this year! Hurry, great memories await you!

Great stay and location!

Had a wonderful time and this home was very well set up. Slept comfortably and really enjoyed the huge back yard! It was far enough off the main road for the woodsy feel but just a few minutes away from any needed stores and such. Highly recommend!!!!!!

perfect place for families

It was very cozy and inviting. The back yard was nice and big for the kids to play in. There was access to misc items if needed. The host was very easy to get in touch with and promptly addressed any questions I had. It was very conveniently located to grocery stores and restaurants. Also not far from the slopes and sledding. This was perfect for my family of 10.

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. Will definitely return for another stay.

The property was very clean and offered more than what we expected. The cabin was very spacious and had everything we could ask for and then some. The backyard was private and we enjoyed grilling out while the squirrels played in the trees. The cabin is in a perfect location and we will definitely be booking another stay in the fall months. Thank you for opening up your home to us .

Girls Getaway

I was sad that my daughter couldn't join us, but had girlfriends stay. The house was the perfect size, loved the Master bedroom and Game room. The mini-blinds on the back door had a few slats broken. One of the rocking chairs on the porch is not safe. Falling apart. The bathtub on the main floor needs work. Badly stained.

Weekend Getaway

Ran up to the mountains after some fresh snow fell earlier in the week with the family to celebrate the wife’s birthday. House was very clean and yard was great for our kids and our Labrador. They all played in the snow and had a great time. Cabin is right in the heart of Pinetop-Lakeside and walking distance to Pinetop Brewery. Ping pong table and pool table (and a dart board) helped keep everyone having fun. Stacey was very quick to respond to all inquiries. Would definitely come back.

COZY CABIN

THE COZY CABIN WAS COMFORTABLE. ITS COULD USE A LITTLE TLC. THE BACK WOOD PATIO MANY OF THE FLOOR NAILS ARE RAISED UP AND MAY CAUSE SOMEONE TO FALL. A LITTLE TRE TRIMMING AND WEED PULLING WOULD HELP THE APPEARANCE. I PERSONALLY PULLED MANY WEEDS OUT IN THE FRONT DRIVEWAY. THE DRYER COULD USE SOME MAINTANCE, THE TEMP GAGE DOESNOT HOLD THE CORRECT TEMPERATURE, YOU MUST SET TEMP GAGE SEVERAL TIMES IN ORDER TO GET THE CLOTHS DRY. I ENJOYED MYSELF VERY MUCH.

Seasonal specific

Great house for our needs. Love having a dog friendly place with big yard. But not real comfortable during hot summer days. With no AC, It's very difficult to keep the house at a comfortable temp. The house had several fans that we used. Weather was just too hot for fans to be effective! Perfect place for late fall winter or early spring.

Good stay in the white mountains

This cabin was a great choice for our party of 7. There’s plenty of room for everyone to spread out, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked with all the cooking necessities. The backyard was large but unkempt (we couldn’t use the horseshoe pits or the hammocks due to the length of the grass/weeds). the game room was a nice surprise, having the pool table, ping pong table, and some toys for the kids was awesome! However, the carpet probably needs replacing, or a deep cleaning, as it did have a very musty smell. I would recommend this cabin to anyone traveling with kids or pets. It was walking distance to the movie theater and an ice cream shop, and a very short drive to a grocery store and some restaurants

Cute but spacious cabin in the Pines!

This was our final family vacation with all of my kids before they move on after high-school graduation. It was also my birthday weekend, we spent lots of time in their game room playing pool, pingpong, cards, darts, monopoly, and even karaoke! (I brought our karaoke). Pet friendly, big backyard, quiet neighborhood 5 minutes away from Safeway and all the other restaurants for when we weren't adventuring, made this place on our top 5! No ac, so check the weather in the summer before you book! We bought some box fans and ran those at 7 pm until 9 am, kept the spacious cabin on a 90 plus day around 82 first 2 days after that, the cabin stayed around 75-77 just with the fans at night and closing it up around 10 am. We did keep the small windows open in the kitchen and both bathrooms to allow air flow and that also helped keep it cool. They have plenty of activities like cornhole and a horseshoe pit for evening outside activities, if you're not up in the forest on trails, rivers, or the lakes! Excellent communication when we had a minor issue. Left real seasonings, cooking oil and canned goods for the next family. Enjoy your stay and detach from the hustle n bustle of life, this is the perfect place to do it!

Spacious, fully stocked home with game room

The house is large and well laid out. We had everything we needed and we didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. The game room in the “basement” was a selling point for us and we had fun family games nights down there. The equipment could use some attention/repairs. We were cold a lot for the first day until the heat got going. The heat doesn’t fill the whole house well. We had all the space heaters going and fire in the evening. I had the wherewithal to bring a heated blanket and we used it constantly. We were there in March. The bed in the primary room was comfortable and I slept well. The kitchen had everything I needed. I like how close it is located to the supermarket, but I wish I knew that it was on a neighborhood street and not the cabin in the woods that I was hoping for. But the neighborhood was quiet and overall we had a lovely time.

Great Cabin Getaway

This cabin is great getaway for those looking to relax. Quiet and nice neighborhood. Cabin was super clean. Shopping less than 2 miles away. Game room was a plus. Best part was the back yard and porch. Big Yard fenced was perfect for our dogs to run around and enjoy the weather. Plenty of tall pine trees in the back yard made it feel refreshing and outdoors in woods. Everything you need this cabin pretty much has. Highly Recommended.

It was a last minute booking for a sad situation and the property manager was very accommodating. It was nice to be able to relax on the back deck and decompress in the game room. We hope to come back and stay under better circumstances.

Cabin getaway with family

I stayed at the cabin with family for the weekend and it was a great time. The cabin had everything we needed and more. It was easy to find and very close to a grocery store. The yard was beautiful and the outdoor seating was great to be able to eat lunch and enjoy the weather. The cabin was clean and very comfortable.

About the host

Hosted by Stacey Durney

Host profile image
Stacey grew up in Minnesota and always enjoyed family time at the cabin. She wanted to give the same memories to her 3 boys- now 16, 13 and 9. They spend as much time as they can up here between sports and school!!!!

Why they chose this property

This property has a fenced yard for kids and animals to play safely and freely. We are nestled in beautiful Lakeside, close to lakes, hiking and skiing.

We were considering a vacation home for a long time but never found the right one. We walked into this property and immediately fell in love with it. We love all that the Pinetop-Lakeside area has to offer and have hiked most of the trails, fished the local lakes and enjoyed a pint or two at the nearby watering holes. You'll find that you can get anything you need in a 5 minute drive or you can enjoy your privacy.

What makes this property unique

The cabin was refurbished twice, most recently in 2009 when the interior was updated to 'cabin chic' with knotty pine and an over-sized fireplace. The yard is large and quiet with lots of pine trees. The front and back patio decks are a great size for relaxing in the cool breeze. The cabin is consistently 20-30 cooler than metro Phoenix or Las Vegas making this a great destination for those looking to get out of the heat for a weekend.
