Incredible

We had a wonderful stay at the Retreat on The Rim. The host was incredibly communicative for all of our needs before and during the stay. Everything you could ever need for a getaway was supplied and well maintained. Everything was labeled and easy to find. All of the beds were comfortable and there were plenty of blankets to cozy up to. We had a group of girls stay there and everyone individually said they enjoyed the home and would stay again. There were plenty of bathrooms that made it easy for us all to get ready for our various outings. The photos listed for this property were very accurate. I would recommend this home to anyone who has a large group they need to accommodate for!

Lovely home next to forest.

The home is big and spacious. There were just the two of us, but a big family with a lot of kids would definitely love this home. Our favorite spot was the expansive front porch with the lovely view of the forest. We will stay again.

Week Away

Our stay was great. There is lots of room for people to spread out and do different things within the house.The rooms are clean and the kitchen was well stocked for us to cook our meals there. The host was very responsive. When the garbage disposal didn't work, they sent someone out the next morning to get it fixed. Our location was convenient to places in the area and the neighborhood was quiet and a nice place to walk or run.

Comfortable Family/Friend Time

We love this property! The kids love that they get a whole wing to themselves for playing and hanging out. The cabin easily accommodates two families (with multiple beds left over), and was a beautiful place to just relax and enjoy time together.

Can’t say enough good things!

Just wanted to leave a quick review to share what a great time we had at this property in Pinetop-Lakeside. Everything about our stay was amazing and we hope to stay here again soon! Our kids played for hours on end on the front porch and in the front yard (which is entirely fenced in, by the way, which was a GAME CHANGER to be able to let the kids play without having to worrying about the street) while my husband actually got to relax! We read by the fireplace, played games, went for walks, watched movies, and ate yummy food. Beds were comfortable and the whole house was very clean. (Our kids thought the bunk room was so cool!) Lots of good memories were made and we can’t wait to go back!

Fall trip

My family booked a few nights at this Cabin up North to enjoy the fall weather and scenery. SUCH a great idea! The area is absolutely gorgeous and this cabin was clean, beautiful, well-stocked, spacious.. and the game room/extra living room was a hit. Also nice that the front yard is fenced in for younger kids. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Getaway!

Wow. this cabin was SO nice! Communication with owner was great and easy. They even had a cute box of treats to welcome us that the kids were really excited about haha. We stayed with 3 families and lots of little kids! Fit everyone perfectly and there were dark spaces for babies to sleep. Lots of fun things to do (for kids and adults!) and the perfect space to just relax. LOVED the front fence, great for kids. Super clean, well organized, had everything we could possibly need. Tucked away in the cutest quiet neighborhood and enjoyed our morning and evening walks. Fresh air, gorgeous scenery (no neighbors across the street- just views). We will definitely be coming back to this retreat on the rim!
