A wonderful stay

My family and I had a wonderful stay at this rustic log cabin! It was quite secluded, wooded, clean, comfortable, and cozy. We loved hot tubbing every evening as well. Stephanie was a great hostess and we had everything we needed. We would stay here again with no hesitations.

Great place to stay

We loved our experience at the cabin. Only downfall was we booked specifically for the jacuzzi that was advertised only for it to not be available while we were staying. It was unfortunate but other than that we loved the cabin and everything about it. We will be return customers for sure

Wonderful Time

We were delighted to stay at this location. It was very clean, plenty of space for our needs, and the hosts were great. We had a very relaxing time. The weather was perfect so we enjoyed watching football from the hot tub. The kids (11 and 12) had so much fun organizing ping pong tourny with all of us. Would love to come back.

Charming Real Log Cabin

Our family had a staycation ( we're from Casa Grande Az) our son was introducing his fiance to us and we wanted to show her there was more to Arizona than desert and we picked the perfect place to do just that. What a great Cabin, had a vintage feel but with all the modern convience's and enough property to have privacy, easy to locate and close enough to have pizza delivered but your away from the hustle of town, The fireplace was easy to use and so cozy , we played ping pong and enjoyed the hot tub each night under the stars, this Cabin had everything you need just bring your family or friends and some food or order out as there are many restaurants near by, we also had the pleasure of seeing several deer sitting under the trees right off the dining room while we ate breakfast. We also found the price to be very affordable especially for a holiday weekend. A huge plus the owners were very quick to answer any questions we had.Book the Cabin you won't regret it.

Loved staying in this cute cabin, though there are neighbors close by, it is surrounded by enough trees to make it seem like you are alone. It has everything you need for your stay and then some. Will definitely be staying here again!

Log cabin getaway

The log cabin was an excellent stay. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms spacious. Lots of seating areas and games. It was very easy to contact the owner and she even warned us about a bear on the property. The hot tub was a nice treat. We were excited to play corn hole but it was not in great condition. Overall, I would stay again!Great mountain getaway.

Cabin in the woods

Had a great time. Cabin is perfect for family and friends. The neighborhood has a camping feel especially with the deer roaming around every day. Cabin was perfect for 6 people. The backyard was very relaxing and enjoyable. Will stay again.

Comfy

Great location and very comfortable beds only complaints are the ping pong stuff and corn hole stuff is nowhere to be found and some of the blankets need to be replaced due to wear and tear and that they charge a lot for cleaning fees up front when you book But you are told you have to do everything when you leave but make beds so I think that’s a lot of money to just make beds

Great cabin!

We really loved staying here! Beautiful, good location/neighborhood, back patio is great, etc. Overall give it 5 stars. One minor thing to note is the listing says the cabin has AC - it does have an AC unit but it’s not central air. It’s only located in the living room. However, with windows open and fans running we were totally comfortable, so not a deal breaker by any means. Just worth knowing if there’s a heat wave or something. Still highly recommend!

Nice place to stay. Close to shopping, other activities. Good communication with host. Hot tub and corn hole court were fun. I would suggest fixing chairs and brick/stones in back yard and around hot tub. Otherwise a great place to be!!

It was charming, cozy, quiet and it had plenty of character and comfort.

The cabin was wonderful. It gave us that deep woods secluded feel the moment we walked through the door. There is plenty to do at this cabin and everything you might need is just minutes away. It had plenty of amenities and something for everyone. It was very clean upon arrival and we were surprised to see the Christmas decorations and plenty of firewood. It had a very homey feel. We would love to come back again. Jürgen & Kai in Tempe

About the host

Hosted by Stephanie

Host profile image
This cabin has a special place in our families heart. We have made many memories and are excited about sharing it with guests like you! I love to talk to our guests, so call any time or feel free to email me.

Why they chose this property

It's a REAL LOG CABIN with the logs exposed inside...not plaster walls, but a true rustic cabin in the woods. When my husband found out that this place was for sale, we called the previous owner, stayed the night, and fell in love. What a dream come true to own such a wonderful cabin. We now enjoy sharing it with people that will cherish it as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

You will benefit from the location, wonderful experience of staying in a clean, cozy cabin with everything there for you. Stress free lodging with all of the comforts of being at home. The outdoor living space is amazing especially during the warmer months but the jacuzzi is year round and feels great after a day of skiing. Games, kitchen & cooking supplies, linens provided and more describe just a few of the many items we have to offer you. COME VISIT THE HIDDEN FOREST HIDEAWAY!!!
