Always a pleasure

This is our third stay at this retreat and it didn't disappoint. The cabin was clean and well stocked with fun toys and games for the little ones. The stove was new and made cooking for eight a delight. We cought fish at the reservoir a few miles away and explored the surrounding mountain areas. Our pug even made friends with the neighbor dog! It was a great stay and always a family favorite.

Cabin Getaway

We absolutely loved our stay! The cabin is charming and met all of our needs (me, my husband, our three children, and my in-laws). The views of the mountains from the cabin were beautiful and my kids loved exploring the fenced backyard. They also loved staying in the Bear Room! It is the perfect kid's room complete with a twin bed, bunk bed, and a fun loft. We spent lots of time outdoors and fished at the nearby reservoir. The owners were more than helpful and provided lots of information not only about the property but nearby things to do and see. We would love to come back and stay again!

Please pass this on to the Palmers/owners:

During a rainstorm on Monday the 16th there was a water leak in the bunk bedroom. Water came in under the door to the exterior. I mopped it up as best I could. Thanks for the use of your well-equipped home. Sarah Wickenhiser

Peace and quiet

We loved this location. The sun room was the best! I’d suggest bringing bottled water, as the water is truly terrible. We did have some issues. We weren’t able to turn the heat down so it was stifling at night and you couldn’t crack open a window. The back yard is fenced which is good for the dogs, however it was nothing but overgrown weeds with black pickers on them. Our dogs were covered in them and so were our pants. If the yard was cleaned up we would certainly stay again.

False Advertising - NOT Air Conditioned

This cabin is NOT air conditioned. We drove 5 hours to find a cabin which was 82 degrees in the kitchen & hotter upstairs. The only AC unit was a mobile unit in 1 bedroom upstairs which DID NOT WORK! The filters on it were filthy and kept tripping the unit. Even if it did work, it would mean leaving the door open to the rest of the cabin to try to cool the rest of the house down. Downstairs had 3 fans going circulating warm air. Normally if its 65 outside you open windows to let cool air in. Can't do that here. The living room window etc doesn't open & if it did it's trapped by the AZ room which has 2 windows in a corner with broken locks & latches that don't hold up the windows w/out placing a wood block there. As the locks on the windows were broken anyone could slide the windows up & get into the AZ room & then into the house as the doors to the house don't lock! Safety issues! The yard was full of dog crap. Prior people didn't pick up after their dog the entire time they were there & the cleaning people don't go outside I guess & look. The yard was not clear as in the pictures and had weeds etc. growing throughout making avoiding dog bombs difficult. Kennel provided was disgusting. Hosts while quick to call back were argumentative on the phone about the AC & situation. Husband was dismissive about the temp & stated ACs won't work if temp is 65 outside. Homes in 112 degree heat was cooler than this place & cleaner. 7/18/24 & still fighting w/ VRBO to refund remaining $ owe

NOT AS ADVERTISED

Definitely not as advertised. It does not have AC and the upstairs is extremely hot. It was dusty and very outdated. The smell of mineralized water will make you puke. This is not an exaggeration while you shower it smells severely and you will not feel clean. The toilets look like a turd was taken and never cleaned up. The host will never respond to your messages. The house is very creepy and has outdated bedding, blinds, curtains, etc. You will not sleep comfortable and will feel as if you’re staring in a horror show. We didn’t complete our stay and left quickly the following morning and rented a room at the Best Western in Eager to complete our trip. I would suggest you book elsewhere before booking this VRBO.

Gorgeous!

The cabin was beautiful! Spacious and comfortable. Everything we needed was available. All we had to bring was ourselves, clothing, and food. So much to do in the area like hiking and fishing. At night it was so quiet and peaceful. Only thing I recommend is to definitely bring bottled water. The water is safe, but tastes of metal due to being from a well.

It was the perfect spot

The home was the perfect place from which to attend our friend's wedding in Nutrioso. We were able to utilize the well-appointed kitchen to put together the rehearsal dinner which was cooked and served off-site. Lots of counter space, large refrigerator, and tables that we could use for building the meal for transport to another location. Many spices and seasonings, with the exception of salt, were available for use, as was coffee, sugar, creamer, and coffee filters. Two types of coffee pots (large pot and a Keurig) made our morning brew easy!! The living room was our gathering spot in the evening between parties. Plenty of comfortable seating for a group twice the size of our own. The only negatives we encountered were difficulty finding the driveway after nightfall, a porch light that we couldn't find a switch for, and the low-intensity lighting in the LR. As seniors, these items were the most frustrating for us. Overall, it's a home set up for family fun. Lots of toys and items for kids of all ages!! The beds were comfortable, albeit really tall. No air conditioning, but there were fans in the bedrooms. We can't speak to heating as we didn't need any. It would have been a bit nicer to have easy access to windows that opened for afternoon cooling. Quick response from host when we needed a few more garbage bags. Overall, a great place to stay, especially for large groups. It's definitely a place to keep on the "return to" list. Quirky and fun!!

Rustic cabin with large sunroom

We wanted to get away and leave the city behind in a dog friendly cabin with full kitchen. It's a great cabin for that. It had streaming services on the main TV. We had issues with our T-Mobile cellphone service. There is a Verizon tower close, I assume Verizon customers will have better service. I had to drive to Springerville to make phone calls on my T-Mobile cellphone. Our devices were able to use the cabin Wi-Fi to stream shows or movies. Spotty texting and no cellular phone calls allowed on our T-Mobile cellphones. Owner was very quick to respond. We needed directions to the cabin. The directions on VRBO are not correct. Ended up on private land as the sun was setting and owner responded asap to help. Was also helpful in getting more propane for the bbq. It was perfect for what we wanted to do.

NOT WHAT WAS ADVERTISED. LEFT. COULD NOT STAY.

1. NO central A/C. Assumed there was as listed in amenities. (indoor temp between 82- 84 degrees) VERY WARM Because the environment was so uncomfortable, we left; rented a hotel room; returned home the next day....our 5 to 6 hr drive. This also happened due to the following: 2. No infö sheet available in rental for hosts' contact numbers or general information. 3. Called VRBO to get host's phone number 4. Owner argumentative on phone trying to convince us to opening windows and doors would solve the problem Told A/C a unit only in an upstairs bedroom. We were not planning to stay upstairs. Owner's suggested opening windows and doors. The living room window did not open and if it did, it is trapped by the AZ room. This room has two windows in a corner with broken locks and latches, which would not keep window open without placing a wooden block in there. However, we could only manage to open one of those windows. Screens in need of repair. No screen on patio door. SAFETY an issue with easy access to the inside of house PLEASE refer to review of 7/18/24, which states many of the same issues. Multiple communications with owners did not result in any resolution of these issues. Having rented with VRBO multiple times, this experience was a first! WE EXPECTED AT ARRIVAL (as required at 4PM) TO MOVE INTO THE RENTAL WITHOUT ANY OF THE ABOVE ISSUES. We are working at obtaining a full refund.

Great Location for Mountain Stay

I brought my girls basketball team to stay for a tournament in Eagar/Springerville. An easy 15 minute drive there, and a good central location from which to explore the eastern White Mountains. Well appointed cabin, clean and big enough for all of us. We've stayed twice now and will look to do so again.

Cabin stay

Location - 15 min to Safeway/Bashas , off the main road but still quiet, next door neighbors have a sweet blue heeler and some bulls/horses to see. We enjoyed a free tubing/sledding hill just a couple miles past “Pole Knoll Recreation Area” <- if you put that into your navigation you can’t miss it on the left. They provided 4 sleds but I think you’d have more fun if you brought tubes!

Get away for the holidays

This was a large cabin in the middle of Northeast Arizona. We wanted to get away from the hustle of big city life! Next door was a ranch with five steer, and we could see a few houses scattered in all directions, but 20 minutes from Springerville. Big tables to play games, do jigsaw puzzles. Enclosed back yard for our two dogs to run around in. We stayed for two weeks in December, snow on the ground. The main house is wrapped by an Arizona room across the south and west walls to help buffer the cold. A pot belly stove in the corner of the living room provided heat. A thermostat kicked it on and off automatically, which unfortunately filled the house with toxic gas fumes, requiring us to periodically open the doors to get fresh air. We stayed indoors the entire time. DirectTV, NetFlix and DVD player was nice to relax to. The water is "high mineral content" reddish color. Owners said safe to drink, but our two dogs would not touch it, and family followed suit. We bought bottled water for our two-week stay. We used the red water to shower and brush our teeth. All of the appliances were off until the morning of our arrival. Ice cream melted in the freezer, and food spoiled in the refrigerator. Even after two weeks, the refrigerator was not cold enough to keep food safe. The microwave did not work, and the owners ordered a new one to be installed after we left. The gas oven and range worked well, we were able to cook a turkey and roast for our special meals.

Nice place to stay

My family and I stayed at this property over a weekend and had a great time. There were some minor issues but they were remedied by the property owner. The property is beautiful and well kept. It has everything you need and more. Super kid friendly, lots of toys and space for the kids to run and play. Firepit in the back is nice for those cold nights. There is a really nice gas stove/oven if you like to cook as well as a grill. I've stayed in Pinetop, Greer, Eagar, Alpine and now Nutrioso. I would say Nutrioso is the most secluded. There are houses around but just spaced further apart than the other areas I have stayed. At night its really quiet and you can see a lot of stars.

Fun family getaway

Had an amazing and relaxing time, this cabin was spacious and easy to find. We had all the amenities you could possibly need! Enjoyed all the quality family time playing with the endless board games, and of course being outside in the cool weather! The Nelson reservoir was super close, although we didnt catch any fish, we saw lots of Elk, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. Connecting to the Wifi, and using the TV was easy and convenient. If we had to make one recommendation it would be to have easier access to the creek behind the house, like a gate from the yard, with a path. Definitely will keep this place on our must visit again list....perhaps for the holidays, or when there is snow!!!

Beautiful Home and Property

We are from the valley and were looking forward to getting away to the cool country. We were NOT disappointed. It was almost 30 degrees cooler in Nutrioso. The property was off the highway enough as not to hear any traffic but, not so far off that you would feel isolated. There is a neighbor pretty close but it didn't matter, the stay was very quiet. The home itself was gorgeous with almost every amenity you could think of (except air conditioning). We had a very relaxing, quiet, nice time. We will most likely rent again.
