We enjoyed our stay. The home is beautiful. We will stay here again. The only issue was a long delay in getting hot water at the kitchen sink. Otherwise everything was perfect. This house is a kids paradise! We didn't have our grandchildren with us this time, but we will for sure bring them next time. They will love it!

This amazing property was perfect for our family trip w Nana & Papa, children and grandchildren for 9 total. Lots of room, the patio with those comfy swing chairs was a hit, the fire table was on the patio and we roasted marshmallows for smores. The dinning table had room for everyone and the kids loved the entire yard. Played frizbee, basketball, kicked a soccer ball, built a fort and on and on. We were able to park 3 trucks with trailers and unload a sxs from each. It was a little tight but workable. Beds were comfy. Will visit again!

Wonderful summer getaway

Our group stayed three nights and spent our days paddling the two nearby lakes and morning/evenings in the hammock chairs on the patio. An amazing home, wonderful hosts, and unforgettable memories made!

Location was perfect. Close proximity to our favorite lakes. The General store across the street had great selection of items. House looked and smelled very clean when we arrived. Lots of space and activities for the whole family. Driveway was very spacious and flat. Hosts were amazing and very responsive with any questions or concerns during and even before our stay. All in all AMAZING trip. We even had some deer come walking through the property for a visit. Hope to return at least once a year. Thanks David! We had a blast!

It easily fit 15 of us comfortably. Loved that there was so much for the kids to do outside as well as inside. The 2 bathrooms was a little bit of a challenge, but we made it work.

Girls weekend

Fantastic weekend!! We rented the cabin for a girls weekend, there were eight of us all between 50 and 60 yrs old we love to eat, drink and play games and being able to seat all of us at the dinning table and on the couch was so nice. The bedrooms and kitchen were great. Everyone is excited to rent again in the summer to enjoy the incredible outdoor space.Davis was the best he we went above and beyond to make our stay Perfect.

Excellent location for a cabin!

Cabin is located within 2 hours from Phoenix area and is perfect for a big family! Wish there was more cleaning supplies on the property. The shop nearby was closed so it was hard to find the basic items but apart from that great location and overall we had a good stay!

Thanksgiving Trip

My family and I truly cherished our stay. We spent a wonderful 5 days, including Thanksgiving Day, and having a full kitchen made all the difference. While we brought our own supplies, we appreciated that the host had a completely stocked kitchen, making our stay even more comfortable. One concern we often face when booking accommodations is finding suitable parking for our SXSs with a truck and trailer. However, we were pleasantly surprised to find enough space to park our 3 trucks and trailers, along with some additional vehicles. This experience was wonderful.

Sports and relaxation heaven!

My husband and I rented this cabin for a Christmas gift to our kids and grandkids. I loved it so much! The guys loved playing disk golf while the gals enjoyed swinging on the hammocks on the deck while the grandkids enjoyed the provided toys and books. We also enjoyed the pickleball court with a tournament. The house was nice and beds were comfortable. Great place!

Great time for teenagers!!

We have 3 teenagers and each brought a friend on the trip - all the kids had an amazing time! They played a lot of volleyball, went for ATV rides, and caught a fish at a nearby lake. The weather was beautiful, too! There was some difficulty checking-in (a VRBO issue - not the owner) and as soon as we reached out directly to the owner it was quickly resolved! Would definitely go again!

Family get a way

Lots of fun events for the kids, including outside swing, basketball court, fresbie golf, snowball maker, outside fireplace, great outdoor patio, and BBQ grill. Housekeeping could have cleaned better and not leave dirty dishes in the sink when we arrived. Make sure to bring your own paper towels, dishwasher pods for the dishwasher, and coffee maker filters.

Amazing cabin

Beautiful, spacious and clean. The owner was in communication throughout the stay for questions I had. We will definitely be going back in the summer to enjoy the outdoors. Has boardgames for the kids, enough blankets and beds. I would just take extra Paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags and laundry detergent. I highly recommend this cabin!!
