Perfect Mountain Retreat
My partner and I had the best weekend in Pinetop at this lovely home. It’s in a great neighborhood, right in the middle of town. We used the outdoor grill and fire pit, and loved sitting on the back porch. We will definitely be back.

Great spot but unexpected guests
The house looked in order and neat. However, the house was not checked the day or night before our arrival. Being unoccupied, little critters (mice) made the house their home--so we were the unexpected guests. There were mice droppings on some of the chairs/couches and under the pillows. It was hard for us to sleep with the critters handling their busy night. Our dog could definitely hear them and stood guard for the night. Had it not been for the mice the stay would have been wonderful. I got a small adjustment to our stay for the trouble, but it was not enough to make up for the discomfort.

Cabin was not clean. Floors were filthy. I mopped floors. We also had a mouse visit.
Started out with difficulty getting lock box opened.called manager, she had me on hold twice. Gave up, finally got it open. Cabin dark and filled with too much furniture, fake plants and geegaw. Temperatures good and stars beautiful at night.

Loved the location and cabin
Just as you see it. Great secluded lot in a quiet and heavily wooded neighborhood. Very close to Pinetop Brewery (which was our fave) and a Safeway for groceries. The only critique I had was when we showed up after dark, the check-in page had the incorrect code for the lock box. Luckily the property manager answered the first phone call so it wasn’t more than a 5-minute nuisance. Additionally, the wifi code on the check-in email was also incorrect. Both very minor issues that didn’t affect our stay, but why even have the automated check-in process if all the information on it is incorrect? Overall great place—I’d go again.

Cute cabin and great location but a little dirty
We enjoyed our stay for the most part but we were disappointed with the cleanliness of the cabin. We don’t feel that it was cleaned very well as there was a lot of dog hair all over the couches, floors, bed spreads and bed sheets. We have a dog also and we know that dogs shed but the couches could have at least been wiped down, floors vacuumed and bed comforters washed. Also, there were no towels put out in either bathroom and the kitchen did not have enough soap. We just feel that it wasn’t stocked very well and the pictures on represented the property inside a little bit differently.

Check-in Issues but otherwise very nice
Property is very nice; especially back covered deck. Many nice amenities for the price. Well kept. Arrived and found entry code they gave us was 'old' which should never happen to a guest. Had to call management company to get the correct one. Same problem with WI-FI code. One provided to us in info email and same one listed on router was wrong. Management company told us where to find the correct one. Listing showed coffee maker and it had none. It had a Keurig, so we had to go out and buy a coffee maker since we brought coffee and filters. Could use a foot stool for the deck. Overall though, other than initial headaches, we really enjoyed the place and thought they did a nice job with it. Very quaint and back deck was excellent to hang out in. We would come back.

Special Visit to Pinetop!
We enjoyed our recent visit to Pinetop, AZ, and stay in the Creekside Cabin. The cabin sits in a tranquil and friendly neighborhood. The yard has been carefully maintained with native trees and plants. We found the cabin to be very clean and accommodating. The open plan living-dining and kitchen area was comfortable; we enjoyed the wood-burning fireplace each morning to take the chill away. The bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was well appointed and stocked for our every need. The covered deck was amazing and we enjoyed the fair weather every day we were there. The overlook to Billy Creek below was wonderful as was the walk along the creek. We certainly look forward to our next visit! Thank you to the host/manager and owners!

Loved the back porch!
We were not given the correct phone number on the paperwork we received, and the information in the house had the same phone number. So when we had two leaks during a storm, we were unable to reach the manager. It was finally rectified when we saw the neighbor on the right and she called the owner. Turns out it was an old phone number out of service. The house is very dark and overcrowded with furniture, and the single beds were very uncomfortable. We had a wonderful time enjoying the area in spite of this.

Not what we expected
We paid for 2 weeks and stayed for 4 days. It did not meet our needs. We are seniors, in our 70s. The lava rock, in all of the yard, was dangerous to walk on. My husband fell. There was no light to read by, in the bedrooms. There was so much furniture, that it was hard to move around. The porch was nice and the kitchen was well furnished. We never did figure out how to watch the TV. I definitely would not recommend this house for seniors.
