About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

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.

Weekend getaway with family, travelled with my 86 year old mother and husband. Such a cute A-frame home with a Shabby chic style. Spent most of our time on the back portch listening to the birds, elk and cattle calls. Board games filled our evenings, a nice selection to play. The interior was clean and comfortable. Loved the kitchen, plenty of cute dishes and pans, seasonings to cook. The deck furniture was in great shape & comfortable,. If traveling with a person who uses a walker, keep in mind, it will need to be collapsed to enter the bathrrooms. Had very tasty fish and chips at nearby Landmark restaurant.

Sweet escape

Our family had the best time! Christopher Creek is a quick trip out of the city where we enjoyed the fresh air, easy going vibes, animal sightings, and playing in nature. The house was cozy and clean! We were very comfortable with access to everything we could’ve needed. Our host was was excellent. We hope to return one day!

Amazing Getaway

We spent three amazing weeks here and loved every minute. The kids loved the cool bathtubs and playing in the creek. I loved the trees, the comfy beds, and that the kitchen was well-appointed. We all loved the weather and seeing all the animals and the friendly neighbors.

Don't come here (it is too nice we don't want the word to get out)

You definitely don't want to go to this idyllic, quiet spot right next to the creek, with a perfectly cozy place to get away from everything. The perfect weather, communicative hosts, and nice accommodations are not something you should bother yourself with because it would be a shame if we were unable to come here regularly. Avoid this place so we can keep coming back every year.

Fun family trip location

Cute cabin and easy access to wildlife and the creek. We had a great time inside and outside. The cabin was clean and well kept. We got to easy elk in the front yard and sit on thr back patio and listen to the creek. The only improvement could be the mattress on the full bed in the room downstairs. Other than that we loved everything about our stay!

Nice Home Near the Creek

We enjoy our stay near Christoper Creek. The access to the creek in the backyard was a big reason why we wanted to stay here. Everything we needed to cook with was provided in the kitchen. The couch is a bit smaller than expected. There is a mouse issue in the kitchen that we contacted the owners about as we noticed a bag of our bread on the ground the next morning with a hole in the back of it, so then we stored all the food in the fridge that was on the counter. The second time it was inside the trash can. There is a hole in the wall in the kitchen that is very noticeable that something is living in there.
