Great Host and Property

Cabin was all it promised. Very clean and comfortable. Host went above and beyond to accommodate our stay. There were plenty of movies to watch and games to play. An abundance of wildlife made it extra special.

Delightful Vacation

the cabin was just as described, & we had a wonderful time! Bethany is a very accommadating host, & replied quickly to our needs. The parking was a little tight for 2 trucks with trailers, so she might want to mention it, but it was not a big deal. I wasn't sure what to do with the bedding & dirty towels, so I left them on the beds, so sorry if that was wrong! We would rent again for sure.

New Year's Eve in Pine

Amazing winter holiday in Pine! Celebrated a fun, but very quiet New Years. Our dogs didn't miss the normal fireworks in Phoenix. Cabin was beautiful, warm and cozy - also close to lots of hiking and natural beauty. Planning on a repeat next year!

We had a great stay at this cozy cabin in Pine

We had a great time staying at this cabin in Pine. The cabin is cozy and comfortable. The cabin was well stocked and had everything we needed. The cabin is close to town including the well stocked grocery store. Our family had a great time watching movies in the evening and it was nice to see some Elk wonder through the neighborhood.

Needed a place close to family for Christmas

This place was very close to my family cabin, so used for sleeping as overflow for the holidays. Has everything you need-probably too much stuff, actually, but the place did the job. Everything in working order and location was our main focus. Definitely an old school cabin feel. Wish there was a tv in the main living area for football watching while preparing Christmas dinner, but made do with a computer on the mantle. Super tiny but cute and functional.

Great location

Nice rustic cabin with all the amenities needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The main feature for us is the fantastic location in a quiet neighborhood close to restaurants and a grocery store. Elk were seen everyday all through the neighborhood including walking past the cabin. We had a wonderful time.

Home away from home

We went on a mini vacation for fall break. The pictures of the house don't don't do it justice. Very cozy and in a great location. Truly enjoy watching the elk in the neighborhood. We took our dog and the yard was perfect for her. We have already talked about going back up for spring break. Thank you so much for everything !!

3 day stay

Enjoyed our few days at Pine. Cabin was excellent, very clean and in prime area. We had close access to all the restaurants. The only thing I would recommend is take a large trash bag. You have to dispose of your own trash (not included in the cleaning fee) at a nearby gas station for $5 a bag. We had two small trash bags so they charged us $10. If we had a large black trash bag then it would have been $5.

Peaceful and full of love.

The cabin is better than the pics! What I found to be so pleasing was the more you look the more you see. The decor is definitely from love! It’s uplifting, calming, cozy and peaceful. It has a very good feeling to it. The bed I slept in was the canopy, it is 100% comfy! You can tell the owner put a lot of thought and love into this home. It’s small but we’ll equip and we’ll designed for practicality and relaxation. All you need is your clothes basically everything is there. The host was very helpful and communicated quickly. We certainly enjoyed the quiet peacefulness and I look forward to returning.

Amazing Beautiful and More

My husband and I spent a week to get away for our anniversary. The cabin literally has every convenience of home and so much more. Watching all the Elk just wandering around all the time was exceptional experience. The nights sky was breathtaking and I could've stared at it for hours. The fenced yard right off the screened porch was prefect for our fur-babies and they enjoyed themselves just as much as we did. The screened in porch wraps around half of the cabin with privacy bamboo shades and the Sauna was magnificent. I could go on and on but finally I'll say this, I can't wait to go have another exceptional vacation and you should too.
