Head up to our creek cabin!

Nested in the trees, on Christopher Creek, enjoy the opportunity to leave your troubles behind in comfortable summer temperatures. Create memories with your friends and family while sitting (napping?) on the deck as the water bubbles by. If you prefer to move around, there are many hiking trails outside the cabin door, also a short 15-20 minute walk to local restaurants.

This double A frame cabin has one bedroom on the main floor with a full-size bed and a set of bunk beds. The TV room has a pull-out couch, the loft upstairs has a Queen. Two adorable bathrooms with claw foot bath tubs for leisurely soaks, (one has a shower). Towels and sheets are provided.

Kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, blender, waffle maker, coffee and tea provided, basic spices and condiments.

There are two sitting areas on either side of the house allowing separate time for kids and adults; the yard is fenced, dogs (maximum 2) under 30 lbs. each permitted. The fence is pretty short in some area's (~30") which should be taken into consideration.

The temperature can fluctuate during the day in the summer months. We have two split unit HVAC units if it gets warmer in the afternoons. For cooler weather, the same units provide heat.

Your children are welcome, please note the deck and spiral staircase to the loft have open railings and are not child-proof.

We offer WiFi, the TV is available to play DVD's with a small selection provided, or rental options available in the supermarkets in Payson. The Roku is available in guest mode to allow sign-in to your favorite streaming services.

Verizon has a cell tower in the area providing cell service to the neighborhood.

If you have an electric car, we have a NEMA 14-50 plug available for charging.

So good I almost don't want to share
This place is incredible. The location is wonderfully serene, right on the creek. The kitchen has plenty of room for multiple people to help prep, and all the utensils, cooking tools, and dishes you could need. There are thoughtful details throughout including spare hats, hiking and tourist information, board games and puzzles, room dividers, phone charging stations, clothes washer/dryer with detergent, and many others too numerous to mention. This is a lived-in and much-loved building. Bear in mind that as an A-frame building with wood floors, it is impossible to exist stealthily in the building. The floor will squeak when walked upon, and any conversation in the loft will be perfectly audible to people in the common areas. The building also settles at night. Also, the loft is significantly warmer than the rest of the house unless the air is well-circulated with the provided fans. With those small caveats, this is an amazing place to unwind and enjoy the smell of the pine and the burbling of the creek outside.

Nice Stay Beside Christopher Creek
We had a wonderful family Thanksgiving at the cabin. We saw elk and javalenas from the deck and our 8 year old had a fun time playing around the creek.

The sound of the creek was amazing. The weather was great. My 17 year old daughter loved the loft room. Lots of spider webs but that probably par for the location. Would stay again!

Before school get away
We had a fantastic stay. House was clean, and also a lot bigger then the pictures made it seem. Creek is right outside of the back patio. Elk wandered the roads and even hung out in the front yard eating off the trees. Would definitely recommend!

2nd time was just as magical
We stayed here last summer and absolutely fell in love with the property and our time spent here. We came back 1 year later and will make this an annual trip. This time we saw a GIANT elk in the front yard, and explored more of the creek, catching crawdads and walking up and down the waterway. If you come across this listing, sign up immediately! You won't regret it
