About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Kachina Pueblo, a great place to stay
At the peak of the mountain, with the best views in Payson and a full private guest house. Your well behaved dogs are invited too. The amenities include a small gym and a sauna. You have full access to the house and the entire 1 acre property. You are at the top of the mountain with a 360 degree view for miles. Like the Kachinas, we are perched atop one of Payson’s highest points. We are on a private neighborhood road, with a small section of the road that is unpaved on the drive up. Quiet and secluded with a wonderful view of Payson and the surrounding town and mountains.

We enjoyed our stay. The road up to the house was a bit of a challenge at first, its a private road and not maintained by the county...but we got used to it. When opening the front door, put in the code and then pull out toward you turning the handle before opening inward.A nice peaceful place to stay

Quiet and private with great views. I walk my dog to the top of the mountain (trail off the driveway). He loves to sniff the elk scent and I enjoy the mountain and rim views. We did see a coyote. The master is comfortable, the second bedroom is a loft. Good hosts and we are up to our 6th visit.

Beautiful but scorpions!
My boyfriend and I and our two dogs stayed there for just one night and it was a cute place. It has a very sweet vintage western charm to it with amazing views! The place was generally very clean but it is very vintage and in turn does have some lack of cleanliness but overall very clean. Chuck and Mimi were very easy to communicate with especially since we had such a last minute booking. We were thoroughly enjoying our stay until I had a baby scorpion fall from the skylight onto my shoulder after getting out of the shower. This incident put a tamper on the rest of our stay but the hosts gladly compensated us and everything ended up working out just fine. Besides that, everything was perfect. Beautiful location and plenty of useful amenities especially for the price!

Beautiful views
The view from the back deck is beautiful. You sit high up on a hill facing south so you see the sunrise and sunset. The kitchen could be better organized and updated. The wood furniture needs to be oiled. We enjoyed cooking steaks on the BBQ but there were no sharp knives to cut with :(. There are no mixing bowls. The dog run was a great asset. I would stay here again but I would bring many of my own kitchen basics. One reason I prefer a VRBO over a hotel room is that I can prepare my own meals and enjoy the beautiful views.

Differently Cozy but outdated
This place definitely has a fun, but definitely different structure to this place. Cleanliness was okay a lot of things were rewashed before use some stuff was dirty and placed in cabinets.Most of the furniture are very close to their very last days as the couch bends when someone sits on it and the chair legs are very nimble except the hard wood table and chairs. I assumed incorrectly thinking the dog yard was a backyard it is not small dog run. Overall it was fine for what it was used for to sit and relax.
This is our second stay here. You cannot beat the view or location. The house is completely secluded, but part of the road to get to the house is not paved. I felt completely safe in our Jeep, but I wouldn't go in our small sedan for fear of the bottom scratching. When we arrived, the house was not cleaned. We messaged the owners as we were not sure if we were a day early. Mimi was there in 20 minutes to clean the place as we waited awkwardly trying to stay out of her way. She advised that the house had been empty for a week and that they were having issues finding a reliable cleaning crew. Chuck stopped by the next day to refund us the cleaning fee, which was appreciated. Both expressed their embarrassment with the situation and did work to make it right. They have a huge TV, but the sofa is very worn and offers no support. You have to use pillows to make it bearable. The home has a full kitchen including a dishwasher, 1 full bathroom and a powder room. There is a gym and a sauna on the lower level, but we did not use them on this stay.
