This was our second time staying at A Shore Thing and I knew it was exactly what I needed. The property is so welcoming and tastefully decorated. I chose this place this time for the tranquility as I needed space to work through a recent loss. It was good for my soul. Our hosts were more than understanding about my needs. Don and Candy love to socialize with their guests and are great company. We plan on returning in the not too distant future and will plan on spending more time with these lovely people.

Very friendly hosts! Clean, well appointed. Everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Lovely welcoming cottage. The owners Candy and Don have literally thought of every little thing to make your stay memorable. They had a lovely bottle of sparking rose for our 20th anniversary. We felt so celebrated and special. We had an amazing, relaxing and restful time. We will definitely be back. Thank you Don and Candy

A little over decorated (fru-fru) for our taste but clean and hosts very friendly and helpful

We love this property and the owners are wonderful. Everything is perfect and all the extras that they provide make this a great escape.

We keep coming back to this little oasis for our getaway from the city life and everytime Candy and Don treat us like long time friends. Clean, quiet and relaxing. Love our stays at "It's A Shore Thing"

Everything is totally clean.

The house was lovely--beautifully decorated with everything we could need! The front yard was a gorgeous, shaded, private area to relax. And the hosts were the kindest people you could meet! They were very caring, helpful, and all-around delightful! We would definitely return and recommend this place to others.

Our hosts were great, the property was beautiful, and the time spent valuable.

It was an amazing stay. Don and Candy are great hosts. You become instant friends with them as soon as you meet them. Sitting out on the patio in the morning and evenings were very special. Staying at "It's a shore thing" was like coming home. The unit is stocked with everthing you need on your stay. Just bring yourself, your significant other and your food and you are good. Make sure you ask them to tell you the Bronco story.

It is a charming mountain cabin in a quiet, rural neighborhood. The owners greeted us & showed us how everything worked. They were available at any time needed during our stay. The home had every necessity & the hosts provided a bottle of wine & popcorn to go with their extensive DVD collection. It was close to downtown Payson & only about 8 miles to Pine & 10 from Strawberry. Excellent stay & highly reccommend it for a restful stay in a lovely setting.

We were very pleased with this little get away and would not have changed a thing. Sweet romantic get away for two and the owners are wonderful. As an introvert I avoids new people at all costs, but these owners make you feel like you have known them a lifetime and know exactly the amount of privacy people need…They are on point for hospitality!!! We highly recommend.

This cozy little cottage was the perfect place for me to escape for a long weekend. Candy & Don have thought of everything you may need! Right down to the bottle of wine, breakfast muffins & popcorn for movie-watching. You have your own patio with a gas grill & fire table, perfect for sitting out with a glass of wine & watching the leaves fall. The bed is comfy & they have a well-stocked DVD library right at hand. The neighborhood is a bit off the beaten path & is very quiet, but just a short drive from Payson. I almost don’t want to say too much because I want to keep it for myself!

Everything about this place is the perfect getaway.

Best ever. Exceptional hospitality and amenities. Candy and Don were the perfect hosts and the cottage was so nicely decorated. It's " a Shore Thing" we'll visit again.

We enjoyed this property. Very nice and had everything you need! Hosts are great people!

Although we stayed busy, Candy and Don were always available to us to answer any questions. Definitely premier hosts. We will be back!

What a wonderful place for a couple for the weekend! We not only celebrated our anniversary in style, we gained new friends! The owners of this cabin went above and beyond to make our stay special! Highly recommend this cabin!!

This was my return visit and PERFECTLY PERFECT IN EVERY WAY. See you again !!❤️❤️

Love, Love this cozy cottage “ A Shore Thing” you can’t go wrong with this choice! Quiet, peaceful, clean, everything you need in the kitchen. Lovely owners always willing to help you make the most of you stay. This was our 3rd time staying there and were coming back in August. Perfect place to get out of the heat of the Phoenix valley! Thank you Don & Candy

A wonderful VRBO with everything one needs as well as wonderful owners along with Parker the dog who made our stay one of best at our 77+ years old. We hope to be back soon to enjoy many more evenings together.

We had a wonderful time at “A ShoreThing” the weather was awesome rained a little and it was much cooler temperatures than the valley where we live., it was a treat to stay there. The cottage is cozy, comfortable and beautiful outside in the yard, the owners are warm and friendly you cant help to just love them! It was a beautiful time! Looking forward to going again soon!

A Shore Thing is a delightful, intimate cottage just right for two people. The details have been very thoughtfully and tastefully designed and coordinated, and everything there has a story. You will want to spend time there, as the yard and cottage are really inviting, comfortable, and fun. Don and Candy are fabulous hosts. They are personable, knowledgable about the area, and straight-up great people. This place is a real treasure! Ray and Ann Nagell

A Shore Thing was absolutely wonderful! Everything you could possibly need is available. The nearby views and sites are a must. We enjoyed coming back to the cottage and relaxing in the beautiful outdoor space! Looking forward to our next stay! Don and Candy are exceptional hosts!!

Awesome!!! Peaceful, beautiful setting, very comfortable place! So very glad we found this get away! Wonderful owners.

Had a wonderful time. The accommodations were comfortable and beautiful. Lots to do in the immediate area. Owners are pleasant and available for any needs. Highly recommend "A Shore Thing".

Amazing few days in a beautiful cottage! Thank you for your hospitality ❤️

Great experience in quiet neighborhood. Owners provided everything we could have wanted. Even assisted in arranging a wedding for us! ❤️ Will definitely go back again!

Everything was awesome. We have no critique or shortfall to mention. Soon and Candy are great hosts, friendly, kind and helpful if you need anything. The cottage was well laid out and roomy with so many cute touches and accents. It was clean comfortable and cozy. It was also located in a quiet, small neighborhood surrounded by beauty out of the town of Payson by about 5 minutes. It is an awesome VRBO. We had a peaceful and relaxing visit. If we are back in the area in the future we will surely look for Don and Candy's VRBO in which to stay again.

I rent ALOT of vacation places and this, by far, has been the BEST OVERall of any place I’ve stayed. The hosts, Candy and Don are the quentessential Hosts. On a 1-10 scale, it’s a 100😊

Both, I would say. This magical little cottage is the “Mother Ship” of all VRBO’s. Spotlessly clean ✅ Beautifully appointed✅ Amazing attention to detail as in top-of-the-line appliances, kitchenware, bedding, mattress, lighting✅✅ Privacy with an enclosed garden/small yard surrounded by plants, herbs, flowers which are, in turn, surrounded by breathtaking rock formations creating a sense of being in one’s own “Valley of the Gods”✅ You will want to stay longer, guaranteed. You might also feel as if the hosts, Don & Candy, have been your dearest friends for years. It’s a very special “Shore Thing.” Laurel J

The property was excellent for a nice stay away from the city. Relaxing with all the amenities you could need.
