About this property

Head up to our creek cabin!

Nested in the trees, on Christopher Creek, enjoy the opportunity to leave your troubles behind in comfortable summer temperatures. Create memories with your friends and family while sitting (napping?) on the deck as the water bubbles by. If you prefer to move around, there are many hiking trails outside the cabin door, also a short 15-20 minute walk to local restaurants.

This double A frame cabin has one bedroom on the main floor with a full-size bed and a set of bunk beds. The TV room has a pull-out couch, the loft upstairs has a Queen. Two adorable bathrooms with claw foot bath tubs for leisurely soaks, (one has a shower). Towels and sheets are provided.

Kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, blender, waffle maker, coffee and tea provided, basic spices and condiments.

There are two sitting areas on either side of the house allowing separate time for kids and adults; the yard is fenced, dogs (maximum 2) under 30 lbs. each permitted. The fence is pretty short in some area's (~30") which should be taken into consideration.

The temperature can fluctuate during the day in the summer months. We have two split unit HVAC units if it gets warmer in the afternoons. For cooler weather, the same units provide heat.

Your children are welcome, please note the deck and spiral staircase to the loft have open railings and are not child-proof.

We offer WiFi, the TV is available to play DVD's with a small selection provided, or rental options available in the supermarkets in Payson. The Roku is available in guest mode to allow sign-in to your favorite streaming services.

Verizon has a cell tower in the area providing cell service to the neighborhood.

If you have an electric car, we have a NEMA 14-50 plug available for charging.

Nice Stay Beside Christopher Creek
We had a wonderful family Thanksgiving at the cabin. We saw elk and javalenas from the deck and our 8 year old had a fun time playing around the creek.

Christopher Creek
The sound of the creek was amazing. The weather was great. My 17 year old daughter loved the loft room. Lots of spider webs but that probably par for the location. Would stay again!

Why they chose this property

My wife grew up in the valley and has childhood memories stretching from Kohl's Ranch to the White Mountains. We purchased this cabin in 2003 for a place to get away in the summer with our two kids. It holds special memories of travel with our friends and family as a weekend get away. Christopher Creek is a quiet village to enjoy hikes and happy hours. There is nothing like relaxing on the deck on arrival with a soft breeze and the sound of the creek rolling by after a long week.

What makes this property unique

We liked this cabin for two reasons; it's on the creek affording a little cooler temperature, and two separate living area's allowing the kids to enjoy their games or movies in one room, while we enjoyed our company on the deck or the living room by the kitchen.
