Vacation Rentals By Owner In Forest Lakes, AZ

Summary:brbrBrought to you by Forest Lakes Lodging! Perfect for small families or a nostalgic couple’s retreat, The Hideaway offers a cozy escape into the cool pines of the Rim Country. Unplug and reconnect with a retro Pacman arcade machine, a relaxing backyard hammock, and a warm indoor fireplace. This is your basecamp for fishing, hiking, and enjoying the quiet of the forest.brbrbrbrThe Space:brbr✨ Top Amenitiesbrbr• Retro Gaming: A full-size Pacman Arcade machine for hours of family fun.brbr• Outdoor Chill Zone: Features a dedicated hammock for afternoon naps, a gas BBQ, and a shared fire pit for evening stargazing.brbr• Cozy Comfort: Indoor gas fireplace, Smart TVs, and high-speed Wi-Fi.brbrbrbr Inside the Homebrbr• Living Room: A snug, knotty-pine living area featuring a comfortable sofa, a gas fireplace for winter nights, and our signature arcade game.brbr• Kitchen: A compact but capable kitchen with an electric stove, oven, microwave, and full-size fridge. We provide a Keurig coffee maker, toaster, and basic cookware for cabin meals.brbr• Sleeping Arrangements (Strict Bed Count):brbr Bedroom 1 (Main Floor): One Queen Bed with soft linens.brbr Bedroom 2 (Upstairs Loft): Two Single Beds (Twin size) – ideal for kids or friends.brbr Note on Capacity: While the listing allows up to 5 guests, we only have dedicated beds for 4. The 5th guest would need to be a small child on the sofa or use a guest-provided air mattress/sleeping bag.brbr• Bathroom: One full bathroom located on the main floor with a bathtub/shower combination.brbrbrbr⚠️ Honest Expectations (Please Read Before Booking) To ensure a 5-star experience, we want to be transparent about the quirks of cabin life:brbr• Hot Water Capacity: The cabin is equipped with a modest water heater. It provides plenty of hot water for dishwashing and a shower, but we strictly recommend spacing out showers by 20–30 minutes to allow the tank to reheat. Consecutive long showers will result in cold water for the last person!brbr• The Stairs: The staircase to the upstairs twin room is steep (classic A-frame style). It may be difficult for guests with mobility issues or very young children.brbr• Forest Environment: We are located deep in the National Forest. While we maintain strict pest control and cleaning protocols, you are in the wilderness. You may see spiders, ants, or local wildlife on the property. Please keep all food tightly sealed and clean up crumbs immediately to avoid attracting forest friends.brbr• Stocking Up: We recommend doing your shopping for any specific items you’d need before heading up! We are happy to provide a starter kit of essentials to get you settled, but for longer stays, we suggest bringing your preferred toiletries and cooking ingredients to make your stay as comfortable as possible.brbrbrbrGuest Access:brbrYou will have private access to the entire cabin via a secure keyless entry system. A unique door code will be sent to you prior to arrival for self-check-in after 4:00 PM. Parking is free and available directly in front of the cabin.brbrbrbrThe Neighborhood:brbrThe cabin is located on Bills Loop in the peaceful Forest Lakes Estates community. Sitting at 7,600 feet elevation on the Mogollon Rim, the area is significantly cooler than the desert valleys. The neighborhood is quiet, dark-sky friendly (bring your telescope!), and filled with tall Ponderosa pines.brbrbrbrGetting Around:brbr• Lakes: A quick 5-minute drive to Willow Springs Lake and Woods Canyon Lake for trout fishing and kayaking.brbr• Adventure: Direct access to forest service roads for hiking and off-roading.brbr• Snow Play: Close to winter sledding areas and a day-trip distance to Sunrise Ski Resort.brbr• Shopping: The local General Store has basics, but major grocery runs should be done in Heber-Overgaard (20 mins) or Payson (30 mins).brbrbrbrOther Things to Note:brbr• Winter Travel: Winter storms are common from November to March. A 4WD or AWD vehicle is highly recommended, and carrying tire chains may be required by law during storms.brbr• Pet Policy: We love dogs! Non-service dogs are welcome for an additional fee; please contact us for details prior to booking. We kindly ask that you bring your own pet blankets/beds to cover any furniture where your dog may lay.brbr• Security Deposit: A refundable security deposit is required to cover potential damages. Please contact us to confirm the specific amount; it is fully refundable provided the property is left in good condition.brbrbrbrInteraction with Guests:brbrI respect your privacy and offer self-check-in, so you can arrive and relax without interruption. However, I am fully available via the app to answer questions, recommend local trails, or assist with any issues that arise during your stay.

Summary:brbrThe ultimate multi-family getaway brought to you by Forest Lakes Lodging! Rent your own private cul-de-sac consisting of three separate A-frame cabins (The Lodge, The Hideaway, and The Lookout). This Together but Separate setup is perfect for reunions or large groups who want to gather by the outdoor fire pits at night but retreat to their own private spaces to sleep.brbrbrbrThe Space:brbr✨ Top Amenitiesbrbr• The Compound: You get exclusive use of all 3 cabins, creating a private retreat with no immediate neighbors sharing your loop.brbr• Entertainment Central: Features retro Arcade Machines, horseshoe pits, cornhole, and multiple outdoor dining areas.brbr• Outdoor Living: Multiple wood-burning fire pits, gas BBQ grills, and hammock zones for the ultimate group hangouts.brbrbrbr Inside the Homes You are booking three distinct homes. Here is exactly how the group sleeps:brbr• Cabin 1 (The Lodge - Sleeps 6 in beds):brbrLiving: Large sectional, fireplace, Smart TV.brbrKitchen: Full kitchen with dining table.brbrBedroom 1 (Main): King Bed.brbrBedroom 2 (Upstairs): King Bed.brbrBedroom 3 (Upstairs): Two Twin Beds.brbrbrbr• Cabin 2 (The Hideaway - Sleeps 4 in beds):brbrLiving: Cozy lounge with Pacman Arcade & Fireplace.brbrBedroom 4 (Main): Queen Bed.brbrBedroom 5 (Upstairs Loft): Two Twin Beds.brbrbrbr• Cabin 3 (The Lookout - Sleeps 4 in beds):brbrLiving: Family room with balcony access.brbrBedroom 6 (Upstairs): Queen Bed.brbrBedroom 7 (Upstairs): Two Twin Beds.brbrbrbr• Total Capacity Note: We advertise for up to 16+ guests, but please note we have real beds for 14. The remaining guests will need to utilize the sofas (non-pullout) or guest-provided air mattresses.brbrbrbr⚠️ Honest Expectations (Please Read Before Booking) Managing a large group is hard work! Here are the logistical details to help you plan:brbr• Dining Logistics: While we have three kitchens, they are standard residential size. There is no single banquet hall or industrial kitchen. Most large groups cook separately or BBQ outside and push the picnic tables together for communal meals.brbr• Hot Water: Each cabin has its own residential water heater. We recommend staggering showers.brbr• The Stairs: All three cabins are classic A-frames with steep staircases. They add charm but can be tricky for elderly guests or unsupervised toddlers.brbr• Nature is Neighbors: We are located deep in the National Forest. You may encounter local wildlife and insects. Please keep food secured to avoid attracting critters.brbr• Starter Supplies: We provide a starter kit of toilet paper, soap, and trash bags to get you settled. For longer stays, we recommend grocery shopping in Payson or Heber before arrival to stock up on your specific toiletries, spices, and paper goods.brbrbrbrGuest Access:brbrYour group has exclusive access to all three cabins. Each unit has its own unique door code for keyless entry, allowing different family members to come and go as they please without sharing keys. Parking is plentiful with space for multiple vehicles in the cul-de-sac.brbrbrbrThe Neighborhood:brbrWe are located in Forest Lakes Estates on a quiet loop. The area is known for its tall Ponderosa pines and cool temperatures (typically 30-40 degrees cooler than Phoenix). It is a quiet, residential community, so while we encourage fun, please respect our neighbors by keeping noise down after 10:00 PM.brbrbrbrGetting Around:brbr• Lakes: 5 minutes to Willow Springs Lake.brbr• Trails: Direct access to forest service roads for ATV/Hiking.brbr• Supplies: The Forest Lakes General Store is nearby for emergencies, but major shopping should be done before you drive up the Rim.brbrbrbrOther Things to Note:brbr• Security Deposit: A refundable security deposit is required for large group bookings to cover potential damages.brbr• Winter Travel: 4WD/AWD is highly recommended from November to March. If it snows, the cul-de-sac can become a winter wonderland, but driveways may be slippery.brbr• Pet Policy: We love dogs! Non-service dogs are welcome for an additional fee (per pet); please contact us for details.brbrbrbrInteraction with Guests:brbrWe offer self-check-in for your convenience. Since you have the whole compound, you likely won't see us, but we are available via the app to answer questions or help coordinate your group's needs!
