Private Vacation Home
PineTime Cabin: Luxury 3bed/2bath hm In Tonto National Forest Pine, AZ Sleeps 9*
Pine, Arizona, United States
This year round cabin is 3 bedroom, 2 bath 1829sqft house is located about 90 minutes drive north of Phoenix in Pine, AZ elevation is 5,448 feet = 20º cooler year round. Pine is about 13 miles north of Payson and has all you might need in a home away from home but with all the serenity, tall pine, & starry night views the city is missing: central heating & air, cathedral ceilings, covered deck, fully stocked kitchen, laundry room with full size washer and dryer, ceiling fans in every room. Amenities include Netflix, wifi, Directv, HBO, clean linens, and towels. Picturesque views, quiet street, tall pines, wild life (deer, elk, squirrel, birds, etc.) Property has an alarm system and includes a security camera inside on top of kitchen wall pointed at the entrance. Once the alarm is deactivated so is the camera.brbrNOTE: Thermostat is locked at 72°F due to a past guest changing settings causing AC & heat to run simultaneously which fried the motherboard and disabled both. Cost us $$$$ to fix. If 72° feels too warm or cool, there are fans and space heaters throughout. But if you want it adjusted to a different temperature during your stay just text Jennifer and we will remotely make the change for you. brbrThe upstairs bathroom has a jacuzzi tub (sadly only for one but man is it relaxing), a separate shower, towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and soap. The upstairs master has a king size bed, some empty dresser drawers, and closet with hangers. The living room has leather couch, love seat, and chairs that are being restored. The upstairs dining area has table and seating for 6. Folding card table & 4 chairs in laundry room. brbrThe garage is off limits. brbrDownstairs you will find a second full bathroom with towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and soap. Also downstairs are the second and third bedrooms. One with a queen bed, empty dresser, and closet with a 5th twin mattress & hangers.

Coffee, tea, ketchup, mustard, & basic spices provided. Propane BBQ grill. I try to keep it full but if it ever runs out the cost to fill to use is on you. The gas station across from the hardware store does refills. It cost me $9 to refill when it was completely empty and swaps are about $20+. brbrThere aren't any alarm clocks in any of the bedrooms because you're on "Pine Time" (aka vacation).brbrThere is NO trash service at Pine Time cabin. Please pack out whatever you hauled in. The Chevron gas station (toward Strawberry) has a $2/bag dumpster if you don't want to haul it home. brbrYou may want to bring your own:br• food (there's always excess ketchup, mustard, & mayo in fridge)br• artificial sweetener if you use it (there is sugar and honey)br• paper towels if you use those (there are plenty of towels)br• paper napkins if you use thosebr• folding camp chairs for sitting around the fire-pit.br• pack-n-play (none here yet)br• toothpaste & toothbrush br• shaving razorsbr• graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate for campfire s'moresbrbrPine is a small town with a population of about 1,900. Shops, restaurants, bars, ice cream shop, & even a hardware store. Plus a Walmart, chain restaurants, etc are in Payson only about 15 minutes away. brbrAcres of hiking & biking trails, waterfalls, swimming streams, boating, kayaking, fishing, horseback riding, & golf all very nearby.brbrHOUSE RULES: br1) Leave the cabin CLEAN & as you found it. If kitchen and bathrooms are not clean when you check out you will be charged $100 more (unless you chose Cleaning Package 2). The current $75 fee ONLY covers the cost of washing linens, towels, and remaking all the beds so thoroughly clean up after yourselves. If you know that you don't plan on cleaning, let host know *before you book* to get a slight discount on extra cleaning fee. This is our HOME not a hotel. In order to keep the fees low you ARE required to leave it clean. Respect the house as if it were your very best friend's.brbr2) Respect the neighbors and wildlife. Sound carries a lot farther here in the woods. That's my nice way of saying NO loud parties or music.brbr3) Remove shoes at the entrance whenever possible.brbr4) Garage & locked cabinet in laundry room are off limits.brbr5) Do NOT cut or put hot pans on counters or tables. There are cutting boards, trivets, and hot pads provided.brbr6) NO SMOKING INSIDE. If you smoke outside use extreme caution and take ALL evidence with you.brbr7) There is NO trash service so you will be required to take it ALL with you (including bathroom trash). Aluminum soda/beer cans can be dropped in recycling bins at Ponderosa Market and Pine Elementary school has a paper/cardboard recycling bin. There is a $2/bag pay dumpster at the Texaco in Pine.brbr8) Do not change TV wiring. Weird that we even need to say that but a past guest did. (?)brbr9) The trampoline, playground, & fire pit behind my home belong to my neighbor and they've asked me to inform all guests that it's "private property & off limits" even if they appear to be away!brbrIf these rules aren't followed we will place a claim against your security deposit.brbr• Check-in time is 3PM*. CAN be earlier if arrangements are made PRIOR to your stay.brbr• Check-out time is 11AM* but can be later IF arrangements are made PRIOR to your stay. brbr*=NOTE - if you check in the same day someone is checking out your check in time may need to be later to give time to reset.
