Everything was awesome. Beautiful place at a surprising price and the staff was just wonderful. One star off for the 10:00 a.m. check out. A bit stingy for an otherwise super place

Love Payson. I will continue to go there often but maybe stay somewhere else.

Payson is still small enough to be quaint and is close to many national parks. It's a couple of hours drive to the White Mountains and Greer Arizona.
