Riverfront Retreat. Year-round river in North Payson.

We really loved the house and location. It was perfect for what we were looking for. The house was very clean and I loved that the kitchen was well stocked. We highly recommend.

Wow! This property and home was outstanding. We enjoyed all of the wildlife and views of the river right from the back deck. We loved how peaceful the neighborhood was. We also enjoyed playing pool, darts, and ping pong. This house has everything you could ever need and more. Host was wonderful as well. We will definitely stay again.

Wonderful property in a great location. Great time communing with nature.

Everything was great!

Wonderful creek side property with many amenities! The home was beautiful and clean with many amenities, games and very thoughtful touches by the hosts to make the most of your stay.The location is perfectly located on the creek with deep pools and the relaxing sounds. The lawn area in front was perfect for outdoor games in the woods with the kids and the property is a very short distance from amazing hiking (including sections of the AZ Trail).Great escape less than 2 hours from the valley

Perfectly located away from any major town. The house was exactly as advertised. Very quiet neighbors that made it feel like we were alone in the woods. Didn't get to play in the river since the banks were all covered in snow but we don't regret it one bit. Picturesque! Got the kids off the electronics and hiked the local trails. They loved it. Look forward to returning in the summer!

This home was the perfect getaway cabin in the woods for our family of five to escape the hustle and bustle of the Valley for a few days over spring break. Conveniently located less than two hours away and yet it feels like you are way out in the woods. Bonus that it's right next to the East Verde river which I'm told runs year round. Not a lot of water while we were there and too cold to swim anyway, but being able to open the windows and hear the water running just added to the relaxing atmosphere. This was one of the cleanest rental homes we have ever stayed in. No bugs or cobwebs. The kitchen was also very well equipped with spices, oils, utensils and all the cookware you could possibly need. The stone fireplace in the living room was cozy and provided the perfect ambiance. We had rain one day and were stuck inside so the pool table downstairs and ping pong table in the garage were awesome and helped keep us from getting bored while we waited out the rain. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this home and we'll certainly be back!

You just cannot beat this property and the care and representation of the owners. This is my second stay there and everything you would need is available for a relaxing stay. The property and house is even better in person than in the pictures. I highly recommend the property.

Everything was as expected, great stay and helpful host!

This is hands down the best vacation rental our family has ever had and we can not wait to return! This property is truly a home and the love, care and attention to detail put into the property are apparent the moment you walk in. The property itself is in a dreamy location, right on the river, with squirrels and Stellar Jays making the backyard home. We had such relaxing mornings feeding the Jays peanuts, that the host provided, right on the deck while enjoying our morning coffee before heading off to explore the area. Washington Park Trailhead with the Railroad Tunnel and the Water Wheel Trail are within a few minutes of the home and the Tonto Natural Bridge and Woods Canyon Lake were within a 45 minute drive. This home is the most well appointed rental and the host provides so many more amenities and touches than any other rental we have ever had. Our family enjoyed the ping pong and pool tables, the dart board and several evenings of playing catch with the equipment provided. The kitchen is also stocked with all those little touches that are easily forgotten when renting a home like paper goods, storage bags, napkins, spices, cooking oils, coffee and filters and even chocolate! Yum! Truly, we felt like we were welcomed into the host's home instead of feeling like short term renters. You can't go wrong with this house!

Had a lovely time with my family. Home is right on the river and it was so peaceful listening to the rushing water. Hummingbirds, blue jays, squirrels… you feel right in the forest with the luxurious amenities with this home. I’ve rented several homes from VRBO and this home by far has been the cleanest, well stocked, and most comfortable I’ve visited. Owners were very responsive and accommodating. We drove a couple miles away and my whole family caught HUGE trouts. We had a blast. Wish we could have stayed longer.

I am certain that my comments will have been mirrored by everyone who has ever had the pleasure of staying at this house. The picture tells the truth and what you see is what you get. I have stayed at numerous VRBO locations and this one tops the cake, not only for the beauty of the entire house and grounds, but it's also furnished, decorated (Thank you Allison!) wonderfully and complimented with every amenity you would need for your stay especially the kitchen. Returning for another stay is a forgone conclusion- we will. Thank you host!

Fantastic cabin! Every summer our family rents a cabin in Payson, this cabin has been the cleanest and well stocked place yet!! Kids were entertained the entire time with all the games and movies provided. Kitchen and bathrooms had everything you need and more! We all enjoyed feeding the blue jays and squirrels every morning. Truly a relaxing, stress free time at this beautiful cabin!

Phenomenal location, very relaxing!

4 of us stayed for a work retreat this past weekend for 3 nights. The house was perfect! The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. My daughter and I explored nearby trails and we all spent a lot of time on the back patio and near the river. This is truly a special place and we hope to be back. The host was very responsive.

My family and I had the best time at this property. We felt at home immediately and were in awe of the front and backyards. From the beautiful grassy area in the front, to the magical, flowing river in the back. My favorite part was deciding which spot to sit in to read my book. My kids played for hours in the river and then got cozy inside to watch movies and play games. We will for sure be back!

Wow! Our family of four just loved our stay. This home and property have everything you need! The yard is absolutely fabulous! The lawn up front and the flowing creek in the back! You have nature literally at your feet! Inside the house you feel at home is there is everything you need to entertain, cook and relax! Did I mention the beautiful decks? They look out over the backyard and sound of the creek fills the air. This is a must stay!
