About this cottage rental
Unit does NOT have a kitchen.
Chill out in the beautiful ponderosa pine forest of Pinetop, Arizona. Our property backs the Site-graves National Forest. The property is within walking distance to Charlie Clark's, The Orchard, Eddie's Country Store, and lots of cute little shops. We are the closest property to the forest entrance. In the summertime, enjoy hiking trails that are only steps away. In the winter months, we are twenty minutes from winter sports at Sunrise Ski Resort.
We have two parking spots with video monitoring. Non-aggressive dogs are welcome to play in the front gated yard. We have three very friendly dogs in a separate yard. There is a $15 pet fee if registered ahead of time. $20 fee for unregistered "surprise" pets. We are pet friendly but please declare your pet! Please take your pets with you.
We have a mounted 40-inch Samsung TV has with apps and streams movies well. There is a weak WIFI signal in the cottage. We also have a mini fridge, Keurig coffee maker, microwave, toaster oven, and DVD player. There is no kitchen!
The cottage was built in 1955 and still has the original pine walls. It is cozy with a charming mountain feel. The rustic bedroom is contrasted by a newly renovated luxury style bathroom featuring marble floors, marble counter tops, and a walk-in shower. There is a whole bathroom water filter and tankless water heater. Hydronic baseboard heaters with thermostat control will keep you comfortable. The heaters are quiet and keep the room warm without drying the air. We do not have air conditioning but there is a portable fan to put by the security screen door. You cannot see into the room with the security door closed.
The cottage has one comfortable queen-sized bed that can fit two people. The cottage itself is is not attached to the main house. It is attached to the garage but there is no entrance into the cottage from the garage.
The cottage features all new electric, plumbing, and a smoke detector for your safety and peace of mind.
We have five outdoor security cameras on the acreage. They have the ability to monitor and record video and sound. One on the playground, one on the front yard, one on the side of the front yard, one pointing at the driveway, and one doorbell camera at the gate for the main house.

The guest cottage was very comfortable and had everything I needed for my stay. Jodi the host was very friendly. Definitely recommend this place for a visit to Pinetop and the White Mountains.

A nice studio apartment close to restaurants, shopping, and outdoor activities. It’s small, but it’s clean and pet friendly. Jodi was a very responsive host too.

My husband, pup and I stayed for two nights at the end of our 4.5 week summer road trip. It's hard to find pet friendly accommodation in Pinetop so were thrilled to find the cabin. It was well provisioned, comfortable, quiet and had a great yard for our dog. Since we go to Pinetop several times a year, we look forward to staying again!

This cabin was very comfortable and after my dog sitter bailed I was grateful to be able to attend a retreat in Pinetop with my pups. I worked well.

The cottage is about the size of a single motel room. But, it was cozy. The best part was the large, fenced, yard for my furbaby! The host does homeschooling for young children. So, she would try to meet them at the gate to ensure the gate got latched. However, several times the gate didn't latch properly which led to an unexpected adventure for my furbaby. It wasn't what I had pictured, but it was a very nice stay.

Every moment of our trip was perfect, our host was hospitable and attentive to anything we needed! Thank goodness we were able to bring our dog with us. We grilled and dined under the stars and their dog bullet was so friendly! Would definitely book again if we make it out to Pinetop again, the photos don't do the property justice may look small but was very spacious! Don't pass this spot up if you travel out there!

Our stay was great! The check in process was very easy and Jodi was super nice! It was even ready a few hours early. Cute guesthouse, perfect for a couple. Don't forget to say hi to the doggos Bullet, Pebbles and spoiled Spud. Jodi even sent us home with eggs from her chickens. Can't go wrong staying here!

Great location, within walking distance to food and drink options! Place feels like your out in the woods. Very peaceful. The fenced in yard was great for our 2 small dogs to hang out in while we sat out and talked. Host was super responsive. We liked this place and would love to come back!
5.0 / 5.0
Quiet neighborhood near forest land. Perfect for walking the dogs. The host was very nice, she even left an umbrella out for us at the gate, when a rainstorm hit. There is a camera situated on a tree that faces the little sitting area which makes it uncomfortable to want to sit and enjoy your morning coffee without feeling like you are being watched. All in all it was a perfect studio cottage for us and our dogs for a weekend getaway.

Very quaint cottage!
This cottage is tucked off the main street, but walking distance to coffee shop, restaurant, ect. It was very relaxing , quiet. Bathroom looks like it was just remodeled, very nice condition along with heating lights that were very much appreciated on the damp rainy days.
TV works good, no problems there!
Nice place to stay and I would stay there again! The only upgrade I would suggest to the owner is updating the pillows, sheets, and bedspread!!

Wonderful vacation cabin
The cabin was even more perfect than it looked online. The cabin was well stocked - coffee cups, coffee, tea, towels, plates, bowls, DVDs, and air freshener. The place was spotless and Jodi was so great in telling us exactly what we needed to check in. Her MIL helped us with the only issue we had - we couldn't figure out how to start the DVD player. They also have fresh eggs which were fantastic. The neighbors were friendly and the woods are just past the end of the dead end street for walks. There is a market within walking distance too. We will definitely be coming here again. It was a fantastic vacation.

Cute dog friendly cabin
My husband and I stayed for 2 nights for 4th of July weekend with our 2 dogs. The cottage is very comfortable, shower and bathroom are nicely updated. We had a great stay and will return.. Only one suggestion I can make is an EV charger would make the stay even more perfect. We found one at the Quality Inn and charged our car there .

Host was sweet and thoughtful.
Spent a few nights in August here. A great place for my pets and me. Beautiful enclosed yard so I could just let my dog out without a leash was much appreciated at 1 AM when my elderly dog needed to go out. It rained all 1 day and staying in was made easier by Netflix that worked well. Host was on site, helpful and had well mannered children that didn't bother me at all.

4. Can't beat the price for this little gem!

Nice
All was very good- a little problem with the TV- fire stick did not work but Charles helped us. I would have liked to have local channels to know what is going on in the town we are visiting and be able to get the news. A radio would have been nice too.

Great getaway
Great time at this cost cottage! Perfect location, near restaurants and shops and also a couple houses away from the forest and trail head. Dogs loved the other dogs and puppy and the big yard. Super quiet and kids of host were so lovely and friendly! Will stay here again for sure!

Unfortunately this property is very misrepresented in the initial listing for several reasons. Upon arrival we found ants crawling around the room. The first and only morning there we were woken up at 6 am by owner's dogs attacking the bedroom window, barking, scratching, for about 30 mins. The owner's children were screaming all day and the owner was constantly yelling at the kids, lots of noise from the main residence. There are childrens toys scattered all around, and it's not really very private. It says pet friendly, but not so much. The owner expects you to leave your fur babies in a back yard dirt floor kennel and this request is not relayed in the initial ad and there isn't any information sent to you prior to your check in describing how to check in or any other guidelines there are. I had to contact her directly upon arrival to find out how to get into the guest house. Had I been informed of this kennel requirement prior we would not have booked this listing. Our pups are very well behaved and we were not comfortable leaving them on the back of the property alone surrounded by screaming kids and barking dogs, not just on the property itself but there are several neighborhood dogs that bark constantly as well. The property owner doesn't remember documented conversations or correspondences (did not remember we were even bringing our dogs with us even though I specifically reached out with several questions prior regarding our dogs being there) and also admitting after the fact through text messages that she does need to adjust her ad to include expectations, guidelines, etc. We specifically chose this property because it was 'pet friendly' and have utilized Vrbo many times before and never had any issues, as a dog owner I am always very thorough and ask the right questions before I make a reservation. We paid a significant amount of money to have a birthday celebration weekend, literally stay here less then 24 hours and receive no type of refund despite the misrepresentation and uncomfortable experience. Policy leaves all of the control regarding refunds to the property owner and the owner refuses to refund any of our payment. Extremely disappointing experience. Be aware before you book !

Perfect Getaway
I can’t say enough about how happy we were with our stay! The cottage was adorable with lots of friendly critters including a very loving cat, two sweet dogs and some beautiful hens and roosters. Jodi and Family were very inviting and accommodating with our large vehicle and trailer. It was located within walking distance of many restaurants and a national park with walking trail. 5+ raising!

Noisy!!
Great location, walking trails right outside the casita. However, large barking dogs across the street, too many toys every where in the yard, noisy children in the main house

Great Little Hideaway
The room was beautiful - setup similar to a hotel room, and even though you’re right next to the owner’s house, once you’re inside it’s completely private just like a hotel. You’re right off the Main street where there are restaurants and shops within minutes, but you feel like you’re in the middle of the woods when you’re back at the house. It was easy to find, and the parking setup is great. The property manager was laid back and helpful in our communications, which almost made me feel like I was staying at a friend’s guest house for the weekend. This truly is a hidden gem, really well put together for guests to be comfortable. I hope to come back soon - highly recommend it if you’re looking for a place to getaway and relax.

Great for a weekend
Cabin was quiet and the location was great. Within walking distance of both hiking trails and restaurants.
