26th Anniversary Get Away ! :)

This property is the perfect place to enjoy peace and quiet; spend time with your dog(s); relax and read in the hammocks; go hiking; ride RZR's on the off-road trails and enjoy being away from the city. We had an absolutely AWESOME time! Thank you! :)

Beautiful and peaceful

The cabin was exactly what I was looking for, for the kiddos spring break. The backyard goes into the Forrest which was beautiful. It was quiet and peaceful, which is what I needed and relaxing on the hammock made it perfect. We enjoyed s’mores by the fire and my little one loved the tree swing. We will be back and already recommend to friends :)

Exactly what we needed!

We chose this property for a quick spring break getaway and we're not disappointed. We loved the secluded nature of the property and the proximity to hiking trails in the area. About a 30 minute drive to Payson and Pine, easy to get to and the roads were well maintained with the snow we received. Saw cows and javelina in the neighborhood and a coyote in the yard. The house itself was great, plenty of space for the 4 of us, with a huge kitchen great for meals. We also loved playing Ringo and the game closet was stocked.

About the host

Hosted by Brick Randall

A native to Arizona, our home away from home is a beautiful cabin in the pines. Our family has found our happy place and we want to share it any chance we get!

Why they chose this property

Disconnecting from the world is so incredibly easy at our cabin! Out of the sight of neighbors and tucked up to miles of national forest but also just 25 minutes from a nice restaurant dinner or shopping trip if you choose.
