Cute and cozy with some exceptions...

We did a charity ride on our side x sides from Apache Junction up to Forrest Lakes (9 hr ride on the Rzr). Checking in sucked because the key pad to enter was not working. Batteries were dead. Shannon said there was a lock box on the side of the house, but she didn't have the code to open it. That took a while, well seemed like forever as it was snowing upon our arrival. We were cold and wet. She finally got us in. House was cozy, had everything we needed. The pellet stove really warmed up the house. Wasn't expecting to get hot in there! Showers and hot water worked great! The 2 things I didn't like: 1) Description does state that she has not cable, but can use Hulu or Netflix (there's no Hulu). However, the internet was so bad that it became very irritating trying to watch anything as it kept stopping and buffering. Phones barely had service so we were unable to open our maps to download the trails to get back down to the valley. I was told that that is not just this house, but that service is terrible everywhere out there. Cannot verify. and then 2) never in my times using STR's had I ever had to take my trash with me. Here they require you take your trash with you. Mind you, we are only on Rzrs! Space is already limited and now I have to strap a bag of trash onto the Rzr and take it with me. Completely rubbish! (lol, get it) That probably turned me off the most. Pay for trash pickup! Shannon communicates well and was friendly.

Great cabin in the woods

My family of six had a great stay. The cabin was small but had plenty of space for all of us. The beds were comfortable. We particularly enjoyed all the games available and the access to the national forest from the backyard. My younger kids were a little disappointed to find that the swings were broken since they were really looking forward to swinging, but other than that the house was great. We had a few minor problems that were our fault while we were there and the host was very communicative and helped us fix the problems quickly. Overall a great stay and would go back!

Paradise in the Pines

Just another wonderful trip to our favorite cabin in the pines. The location is just perfect, lots of hiking and creeks and lakes nearby. Nice neighbors and a very comfortable cabin to completely unwind.

Just as described!

This is the first property we've ever walked into that was exactly as expected! The availability of games (indoor and outdoor) was a huge bonus with teens. Even the warmer than usual weather was tolerable with the ceiling fans. Great location near lakes and trails! The owner was very gracious in answering any questions... which reminds me, it's the first stay we've had where we didn't have to contact the owner with a problem while we were there! A+

Great place

This is a great place in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It was clean, comfortable and the descriptions were accurate. Communication was also good. The bathroom fan does need to be fixed to prevent the humid bathroom. A surge protector by the TV would be great to be able to plug in more things... such as a computer for streaming from one. It was a good stay.

Nice cabin

The cabin is good. Kitchen is solid. Lot is big. Wifi is excellent. We were able to stream movies. I recommend bringing your own HDMI and laptop, but there are apps too. The king bed is comfy. What sets this cabin apart from others in Forest Lakes is that the master bedroom is on the first floor, and all kids stuff on the second floor. Good for older people who don't want to climb stairs!

Relaxing atmosphere

My husband and I went for 3 nights and I wish it could have been longer! The home was beautiful and had everything we needed! A bottle of wine and a s’mores kit welcomed us which was beyond thoughtful! It was so peaceful and quite a nature lovers dream! We had an amazing weekend and can’t wait to go back next spring!
