Great weekend getaway

Headed for the mountains to escape the heat in Mesa for the weekend. This loft was perfect. Nice deck to enjoy the cool weather. BBQ for grilling steaks. And the electric fireplace was just enough when the evening got cold. So comfortable. Plus super responsive hosts. Will definitely come again. Thank you!

Do Three Stays Make Us "Regulars"?

Emma's Loft is a perfect spot for a couple's getaway to Strawberry. Close to town with easy access to the woods, trails, and scenery of Rim Country. This was our third stay, and we'll be back again.

Emma’s Loft is awesome!

Emma’s Loft is a true gem. It was very clean and quiet, and the layout of the loft was comfortable and cozy with plenty of room. We spent mornings and evenings on the deck enjoying the beautiful view, and we were lucky enough to see elk walking through the property as well. We hope to stay here again.

Always a joy!

Emma’s Loft is a gem of a property. This was our third stay and continues to be a favorite. When you need a quiet time of reflection, reconnecting to nature or just a quick getaway, Emma’s Loft is the perfect spot. And the owners, Lisa & Brian are wonderful hosts… respecting your privacy, but also checking in to make sure all is good.

Amazing getaway for the weekend!

We have stayed at Emma's loft last year and loved every bit of it! The loft is clean and has a wonderful view from the balcony while your cooking your burgers on the grill! This place is ideal for a weekend getaway, and has many stores, hiking, restaurants, and more. I highly recommend this VRBO for your next trip, excellent views as well!

Quiet Spot & Relaxing Retreat for our Anniversary!

We had a wonderful and memorable stay at this beautiful property. The view in the mornings was incredible! Enjoyed cooking breakfast in the beautiful and spacious kitchen and then sitting out on the patio and watching nature over breakfast. Loved the wind rustling through the pine trees! The big King bed was comfortable! It was nice to have so many amenities available in the room! You don't need to bring much with you to stay here! We look forward to staying again with the kids maybe in the Summer! It was also a nice touch to get a handwritten note from Brian & Lisa, owners of the Loft for our Anniversary and a delicious little bundt cake to help us celebrate! Thanks again! We love this little piece of heaven in beautiful Strawberry! <3

Weekend Stay

We wanted a home base while we kayaked the Blue Ridge Resovoir. This was a quiet and relaxing place. Clean and perfect after a day on the water. We ventured into Payson and Pine as well. We always love visisting this area and about 20 degrees cooler from our home. We even saw an elk walk through the yard while having our morning coffee!

About the host

Hosted by Brian and Lisa Herold

Host profile image
Brian and I visited Strawberry many years ago and fell in love with the area and weather. Both grew up in the Seattle area then moved to Surprise AZ on a whim back in 2002. Decided to escape heat and ended up in Strawberry. We built our forever home and want to share this great area with others.

Why they chose this property

The property is located on top of a hill surrounded by ponderosa pines and abundant wildlife.

What makes this property unique

We built this home knowing that we would be sharing this great area with others from the valley and farther places. The back yard is much like a Seattle landscape with the front yard left native. The Entrance to Emma's Loft is very private and extra care was taken to provide extra insulation for noise, heat and cooling. And our dog Ruckus loves the place.
