The mattress in our room was worn out. I notified the owner, and he replaced it right away. It is a rustic getaway in beautiful pine country. Reminded me of the RoseBud Motel.

Great location

The Rainbow's End Resort was a great home base for us while spending a long weekend in the Pinetop area. We didn't use the kitchen but it seemed well equipped. The cabin is older but comfortable and functional. We enjoyed the location on the lake and it was quick to get to Pinetop or Show Low.

The amount of Lake front that was walkable was very limited and not a lot of good seating by the lake for the rooms that were not on the lake side.

Dirty, run down and no room for much of anything by the water. Sewer smell due to broken sewer pipes and human waste back up in yard. The owner was rude and does not care about the property.

Really liked being able to fish so close and that it was far enough away from main road to not hear that traffic. Didn't like the mattress as it was sunk in the middle and we would roll into each other. I felt that the host I interacted with was a little gruff and sort of off putting. Also, the room next to us was empty. They set the room up for incoming guests but the they don't check back and the tv was on all night.

We had such a wonderful stay at Rainbow Lake. Thank you Steven for letting us keep the boat right there on the shoreline for easy access during our stay. The room was comfy but the pillows were super hard!! LOL. After we found the extra pillows we were OK. The common area was absolutely perfect! We met the neighbors and had a community fire in the pit on our last night. Thank you again and we will DEFINATELY be back to visit.

We stayed here for the weekend as a respite from my husband’s cancer treatments and it was just what we needed. We loved being close to the lake and rented a few different types of boats. Stephen was friendly and very welcoming. The cabin we rented was tiny and we were thankful we are fairly small people. My son thought it was cool that we were staying in a “tiny house.” The kitchen, while small, had everything we needed to make our meals with. We hope to return and next time will upgrade a bit to a bigger cabin. We are grateful to have found this place especially with its cancellation policy since it’s hard to know how my husband will be feeling week to week.
