Fun cabin! Just as described!

We enjoyed this cabin very much! The game room was fun, and rooms were very cozy. Lots of space, and the host was very generous with pantry items. We didn’t even need to do chores before leaving! The listing is very accurate. The beds were a tad stiff, but that could just be a preference thing. We would stay again if we were headed up to pine in the future. Communication was excellent. Jared got back to me very quickly with my questions. Overall a very positive experience! Thank you!

Cozy clean and comfortable

We had zero issues from time of booking to the minute we left. The property is just as beautiful as the photos and you need to be there to experience just how warm and comfortable the property is. The home was immaculate and had everything you could possibly need/want for your stay. Beds were very comfy and we slept amazing. Bathrooms were spacious and felt like a mini spa in the woods. The gas fireplace heated the entire home in twenty minutes and then that’s all that was needed. Everything was digital and extremely user friendly. Breathtaking views everywhere you look and the elk came each day up and down the road for a visit. Our dog Miley(Pitt/lab mix) and Richie (Bengal Cat) enjoyed the home so much as well. They love to be outside together and hike together and the gated back yard was perfect. We wish we could have stayed an entire week and just relax. There are so many things near the cabin to see and do and cute places to eat and shop all up and down the main road. Thank you SO much for making this trip perfect and stress free. Great hosts and again we will definitely be back to enjoy the property again soon.

Best Az getaway!

This cabin was so comfy and had this little spell on you that just granted immediate relaxation. The neighborhood was charming and close to town. Our mornings started with relaxing on the front deck or lounging in the hammocks, bird watching. Every day we would be visited by elk and dear. We would end our days playing games - corn hole, jenga, ping pong. Great host! Looking forward to coming back soon.

Great, cozy cabin

We really enjoyed our time at this lovely cabin, the host was excellent in communicating with us and was even gracious enough to share offer early check-in which was very much appreciated. The home is well stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We had a blast hanging out in the basement playing the amazing assortment of games. The screened in porch was so enjoyable for all of our meals. As a Tesla driver the car charger was a huge help. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Cabin

We enjoyed our stay here, the cabin is great with plenty of patios and outside areas to hang out. The only issue we had was the basement/game room sleeper sofa. It was worn out so much that a family member was not able to sleep on it as you could feel the aprings and metal bars underneath. Also we were not aware of the security cameras on the front and back patios. Not a big deal but would like to have been informed about them. Overall the cabin is cozy and loved the layout. A great place for family getaway.

Wonderful Weekend in Pine

The cabin was better than as described. A wonderful cabin to spend a family weekend. Many games and books and relaxing chairs in multiple locations to sit back (isolate if you desire) and enjoy a cool peaceful break from the Valley heat and population. The cabin was the most equipped we have stayed in, plenty of towels, toiletries, kitchen goods and pots and pans. Overall an A+!

About the host

Hosted by Jared Mason

Host profile image
I grew up on a farm in the Midwest but ended up at an engineering firm in Phoenix. My wife and I purchased the cabin to have a place of solace away from the big city and this cabin and this neighborhood in Pine is truly amazing.

Why they chose this property

If you have been to Pine before, you likely know that the neighborhood within Pine that you stay is important to your overall experience. This neighborhood is incredibly quiet and welcoming and allows you to really feel like you are alone in the forest. Elk visit our cabin nearly every day. You can lay in the hammocks for hours with only the sounds of nature around you.

What makes this property unique

While many properties that you search for call themselves cabins, this property is truly a log cabin but not just on the exterior. The log cabin feel permeates every bit of the interior of the cabin and every accessory. The game room is also truly unique and allows solace and entertainment even when the weather outside is not accommodating.
