Amazing views from every outdoor space. The river is beautiful & the neighborhood charming & walkable. The cozy cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. We loved the electric fireplace for ambiance and the hot tub was great after a day of hiking. The host is communicative and respectful. I will definitely be back!
The cozy cottage was a wonderful little place. I stayed for business and found it was a peaceful place to wind down from a very long day at work. The surroundings were beautiful and I saw a herd of elk driving into town one evening. Verla was an amazing host. I absolutely loved the fresh eggs!
The house was amazing for our weekend getaway. The host has put a lot of love into the house. It has everything you could possibly need and more. We would definitely stay here again in the future.
We enjoyed our weekend at the Cozy Cottage. It had everything we needed and relaxing in the hot tub was just what we needed. Close proximity to Payson & Pine/Strawberry. We hiked Tonto Natural Bridge and Pine Trailheqd.
The little details were very welcoming... chocolates on our pillows, popcorn while enjoying a movie and coffee pods for the morning. The cottage is in a quiet neighborhood and is very relaxing.
My mom and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this Cozy Cottage. The owners have gone above and beyond ensuring we did not want for anything! We very much appreciated all of the little extra touches! The cottage was nestled in a quiet neighborhood just a 10 minute drive to shopping and restaurants. Close proximity to Tonto Natural Bridge and Wagon Wheel too! Would stay again!
Such a cute little place. Great hot tub that was easy to open. Tons of games and activities - we didn’t bring kids, but has toys for littles. Close neighbors, but I didn’t see anyone and only heard one car drive by - very private. Kitchen had everything we needed. Comfy bed that even had chocolates on our pillows.
My husband and I went to the cozy cottage as we needed his place to stay in the area close to Camp LoMia in Pine… The home was easy to find, easy access and had the most comfortable king bed. We enjoyed the Jacuzzi every evening. We didn’t have much time to enjoy the rest of the house, but I was pleasantly surprised to see lots of little extras that the owner had left for us as a renter to use. I think the extras make a big difference the next day after checking out, I realized I had lost my bracelet and I quickly called the owner… She found it and mailed it back to me at no charge… I thought she was the kindest person to help me with this. I would definitely rent here again!
Overall excellent. It was quiet, a good time to gather and refresh with friends. Us moms needed this quick getaway. The cottage was cozy and well kept, had everything we needed from extra toiletries, to seasonings and extra towels and blankets. Overall clean, there are 2 trash bin in the kitchen one was half full of empty beer bottles no big deal. There was also a fairly large amount of hair in the shower drain cover.
We didnt arrive until evening but the hosts instructions were easy to follow. We were worried when we got to the bridge as water was running across (as it’s supposed to we later learned). The host did mention in the instructions the water was shallow but we were a little scared crossing at night because we couldn’t see just how shallow it was.
Lastly, the bathroom door is a barn door which doesn’t allow for much privacy in the bathroom.
For those reasons I’m giving a 4/5
we enjoyed our stay very much and would love to return in the future!
It was a cute place but could use some fixing up. Such as paint and some deep cleaning. I would also suggest having different sizes of pillows for the bed. The pillows were super thick and hurt our necks. We ended up using blankets instead.Check in went smooth and property manager was very friendly. I asked prior if they had a coffee pot and was told yes. They had two coffee makers, a Keurig and regular coffee maker. We tried using the Keurig, it was dirty and spilled coffee and coffee grinds all over the counter and floor. The other coffee pot was dirty so we drove to town to get coffee. The jacuzzi was nice and hot but the jets on one side didn’t work very well and the water was extremely cloudy. There needs to be more lighting around the jacuzzi area.It’s in a beautiful location and easy to find. I feel it was a bit overpriced for what it was.
We loved our stay! Verla was very accommodating to our requests and so pleasant to talk to. The pillows are amazing! We were comfortable and found everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Thank you! Clean, comfortable, fully equipped kitchen, and a great host.
Amazing place great location. The owner was so nice. Really clean and hot tub was a game changer. Me and my wife had a great time. 10 outta 10 would recommend!!
We had a wonderful time at the cozy cabin. My wife and I stayed there in June for our anniversary and it was the perfect getaway. The home was cozy and welcoming and communication with the owners was pleasant and speedy. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay.
