Beaver Valley Experience
Beautiful quiet property with wild life visitors almost daily ( hummingbirds and elk ). The cabin is small but well equipped with clean linens and kitchen utensils. We throughly enjoyed the patio, gas grill and comfortable outdoor furniture. Great place to read or listen to the little stream and watch the evening sky. There is a small playground in the neighborhood. Number of areas to explore nearby some in the immediate area and others like Tonto Natural Bridge are only a short drive. The town of Payson is only 8 miles away where we found historical sites, farmers market, fun antique shopping, good restaurants and churches. The owner quickly responded to any questions. We will definitely return to the River Cabin in the not to distant future.

It being a small cabin is fine, but the furniture desperately needs to be updated. It's dirty and extremely uncomfortable. The only comfortable place to sit is on one of the beds. As much as you're charging, you should at least have decent furniture.

Cute cozy 2bd cabin with a great view from the back patio. Lots of seating and great area to relax in and enjoy the water below. Lots of birds singing and lizards enjoying the sun. Walk down a short path and enjoy the water up close. Lots to see in the area and great hiking spots to explore. Host left great instuctions and check in was easy.

Great creek views
The cabin was cozy and had all the little extras to make the trip hassle free. The creek views were amazing. Would love to come back when it’s warmer in order to enjoy the outdoor space.

Perfect mental get away
I was hoping I picked a good spot to get away from the city, and this spot was the cherry on a ice cream sundae. It hit the spot in my heart , my highlight was hearing a baby Elk looking for mom right next to my window , and then hearing the Mom calling out to her baby , they both met in the creek down below our cabin. I was so excited lol. The owners of the cabin made us feel very welcomed and it was stocked just like it said it would be . I can go on and on but don’t miss out on this , you won’t be disappointed!
