The property is great with a huge deck that looks out over the Mongolian Rim and lots of space - you feel like you are the only one on the mountain! The house was a bit musty because I think it hadn't been used in a while but once we opened up the windows for the day it was fine. Just a heads up to bring your own spices as there are very few but otherwise the kitchen was well stocked.

Upon check in, we immediately noticed the facility had not been properly cleaned. The fridge was dirty and had two dead insects in it; the oven was dirty, the dishes had grease all over them; the sponges smell badly (requiring a 10 mile trip each way to store for cleaning supplies). The message was immediately sent to the host and no response for two days at which time the response was simply sorry for the delay but they were having issue with the VRBO app but the matter would be addressed. The amenities were poor at best. I have stay at many VRBO locations and this by far was the worst. The noisy floors was especially nuisance at night. There is room for improvement.

Would definitely stay again

Came here for a birthday trip with a group of five was able to communicate with the host prior to coming in order to make sure we had everything we needed. They were very friendly and understanding.Lots of space for larger groups, the way everything I set up is very conversation/family oriented nice area to hang out upstairs very kid friendly. Made for amazing memories and very cozyif there were a few things I were to just notate one the dirt road onto the property could probably take some by surprise. It’s a very easy drive during the dry summers, but it was a little unexpected. Some of the mattresses were very hard but lots of pillows and blankets in storage when needed. very minor details that could be improved for example; You could tell that the floors weren’t cleaned properly and that some items in the home have been left from prior guests but some do come in handy.was very easy to make meals for a group using provided items in the house, very nice that they had pots, pans, toasters, blenders, etc.Very nice view treehouse is definitely perfect for the younger kids. Good little hangout space wasn’t used very much with my specific group but would be amazing for a family trip.No cell service in the area but as soon as Wi-Fi is connected, the Wi-Fi runs greatThe area and overall set up of the home makes for a great peaceful getaway for all ages, nice and secluded, but everything is easily accessible when needed.Thank you for having us!

Stress free & relaxing!!

Spent 4 nights and would have loved to have spent 4 weeks. Beautiful views off the back deck, peaceful, stress free way to relax. Cabin was well furnished and very comfortable. Enjoyed seeing elk every day come right up to the cabin and even had a bunch of javelina show up the first night around the fire pit. Would definitely rent again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin.

Great location and view

We had a nice stay. Would consider renting again. We struggled with the hard beds, a bit. It was very quiet. The view of the rim is terrific. Loved eating breakfast on the deck. The treehouse is very cute and kids would love it.

Fantastic views and great place to get away from it all

Views from the porch of the Mogollon rim and surrounding area are stunning. A short walk down the road are hiking trails and the Tonto National forest. Many other hiking trailheads in the area are a short drive away. The nearby East Verde River is very scenic. We enjoyed sitting around the nice fire pit almost every night. Kitchen has all the necessities and more and the propane BBQ grill was great to cook steaks.

Disappointing

Our stay started by arriving to an unclean rental with an elderly man still inside cleaning over 1 hour after check in. It was a mess. Pros: location is great, quiet, up the hill, decent views, close to natural water and great hikes. Cons: listing details are inaccurate. Treehouse was a total let down as you could only use the bottom floor which only had a table and triple small bunk. Owners well aware the above floor was not usable because they did not “have time” to repair it after a leak. The listing should have reflected this info or at least it should have been disclosed when requesting the booking so we could have chosen an alternative listing. The home is HOT if you stay in the summer and remain in the upstairs living area, downstairs gets incredibly cool but is also very very loud from the AC so we all had to stay upstairs. Curtains are useless as they don’t fit the windows for any privacy. Bedding smelled horrible and the bedding in the first room upstairs to the right had holes all over it. Not just one small hole, the pillow case was falling apart and the beds and pillows were extremely uncomfortable. Our fault for assuming new mattresses meant good quality. Our kids ended up sleeping on the couches (which also do not match the listing images). The seating outside had no cushions and the washer smelled of mildew so I’d recommend bringing enough extra clothes So you don’t have to wash, could explain the smell on the bedding. Will not stay again.

Nature calls

This is a super cozy cabin in a prime location! We stayed a week and everything was perfect. Secluded without any visible neighbors and the back deck has a beautiful view. Perfect location and more than accommodating. Kitchen is large and we were a large group. The treehouse was a total hit with the kids and has room to sleep so many. We swam at the water wheel...hiked the bridge crossings...caught some trout...went geode hunting on the property and it was super fruitful. We Had a blast. We had a front row seat to the starlink satelite launchs 3 nights in a row. We were visited by Elk and Havelina and a horned beetle or two. We went bug hunting and caught a massive grasshoper.. if you are looking for some nature in your life this is the prime location for relaxtion! We will be back!
