About this property

Cozy streamfront cabin nestled in the pines

Listen to the trickling stream from your back porch. Watch butterflies play in the fruit trees. Pick a few blackberries and dip your toes in the water...

Blackberry Cabin is a cozy log cabin set back on an acre of pine and fruit trees in the community of Whispering Pines. The fenced backyard leads to the banks of the East Verde, sometimes a gushing river, other times a rocky stream, where locals wade and catch the stocked trout. Riverbanks are lined by grass, flowers and blackberries which you are welcome to pick! Our property includes a unique stone embankment where swallows and other birds like to zip by, with a steep hill behind leading to national forest land. Watch for wandering deer and elk!

Inside there is an open living and dining area with a fully stocked kitchen - just bring your favorite food! There is a loft bedroom with a pleasant sitting area close to the air on warm afternoons, with room for friends or family in the sleeper couch below. On cool fall or winter nights the toasty wood stove will keep you warm with that lovely radiant heat.

Whispering Pines is a small neighborhood of full time residents and visitors escaping the heat and bustle of the city! It is minutes from excellent hiking trails at Washington Park and various public access points on the East Verde. In addition to proximity to the ever-increasing line up of activities in Payson, it is close to local attractions like Tonto National Bridge, and the towns of Strawberry and Pine.

Quiet getaway

Lovely little cabin surrounded in natural landscape (not overly manicured) which ads some additional character and privacy. Easy access to river and beautiful scenery. But you don’t even have to leave the yard to feel surunded in nature.

Minutes from Payson but feels far away

This is the cozy, tucked away cabin we were hoping for. So easy to get to all the nature and sights, including Tonto Bridge. All the amenities you need and the property is so beautiful you might not even want to venture out.

Awesome

We had a fantastic time in this cabin. It was exactly what we were looking for. The river was a little on the low side with how dry this season has been. It was still great walking around and exploring. The owner was super responsive and answered any questions right away. Highly recommend

Wondering

This property and the cabin are amazing. Surrounded by woods, its very private even though there are neighbors. This cozy litte place has everything you need. Its perfect for a couples getaway, or to spend time with your family. Close to several hiking trails, water wheel is a must. Super clean, easy to get to, checking in and out is a breeze. We will definitely be back.

Awesome cabin in the woods

We were extremely happy with everything. The property and cabin exceeded our expectations. When I did have an issue, the host was very apologetic and rectified it immediately which was great. The only thing that was not completely stellar was the path down to the creek, it could use some revamping so people can make it down easily.

Thanksgiving in a cabin in the woods

This was a get away for my husband’s Birthday! I was so impressed that everything I needed to make Thanksgiving dinner was there or something that would work…just bring the food! The little fireplace in the living room was so nice. It was so relaxing & just what we needed! Bonus..there were Elk down by the river…how exciting. Fabulous stay & my husband is talking about going back.

Superb Location for Relaxation in Nature

The cabin is surrounded by large mature trees, but the highlight is definitely the river front! You can hear it from the deck, or walk downstream 2 minutes and have a picturesque rock beach all to yourself.

About the host

Hosted by Gabriel Moore

Host profile image
My name is Gabriel, I own and manage Blackberry Cabin. Growing up in Scottsdale I have always been charmed by the big pines and the cool wilderness of Payson. I have enjoyed spending time in the area for the last 16 years with my wife and my two young girls - spring, summer, winter and fall - it's all great! We love the wildlife and serenity that we have up in the Rim country.

Why they chose this property

We fell for the cabin at first glance. A log cabin with hundreds of feet of waterfront and our own canyon walls? You bet! Our kids love the running between the cherry trees and picking the blackberries. Spend the day on the river, and then relax in a charming log cabin, we know you will love it as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

Walk right off the backyard into the East Verde river! What is better than that?
