The property is situated on an acre lot with a peaceful creek at the lower portion of the property and is surrounded with trees that span 100 years old. The front yard is fenced and secured for your pets with plenty of space to run and enjoy their pup-cation. Enjoy a cup of coffee on the front patio with stunning mountain views.

Guest access
Everything!!! Its your magical place!!!!
There MAY be a FIRE BAN in place when you are interested in coming. Please check the Tonto Forest web site for alert ban status.
I will have a sign on the fire pit if I know there is a ban in place. But, it changes often, according to the weather, etc. I do not control the state fire ban laws. Safety is important!
This is a rural location - sounds you may hear could be horses, coyotes, dogs, cows, chickens and roosters along with farm equipment.
DOGS and wild animals: This home is next to the forest and neighbors do not always keep their dogs fenced and they are allowed to run around the area. The pets are generally friendly and RARELY come by. However, you need to be aware that I can not control the wildlife or neighbor dogs. If you decide to bring your pet, the front yard is a large fenced area but I do not recommend you allowing your dog to run around freely.
Often there will be more horse traffic than car traffic. Do not approach horses or the area ranches. The road past Sprague Ranch road is a private road. More info will be provided after booking.
Open Range: The property is located in an open range area - this means certain times of the year livestock will pass through the property. Stay clear of any livestock.
To reach the Happy Place you will pass through the creek that runs through the property - it is usually shallow but during or after rain storms requires extreme caution.
The property is equipped with exterior security cameras only!

Summary: The Happy Place is hands down the best house we have ever stayed at. This hidden gem blew our expectations out of the water. From the perfect location tucked back alongside the creek, the beautiful finishings that make the house look like it came out of a Joanna Gaines home, and the wonderful hospitality of Bob and kattie! The creek was beautiful and provided so much fun and entertainment for our kids. It was so quiet and peaceful and honestly an area that I cannot wait to go back! The house was perfect for kids, dogs and adults! Definitely a must stay when visiting the payson area, and we are already looking at the calendar planning our next trip there! Thank you both for the amazing place to call home for a few days!!

Summary: My wife and I first stayed at Happy Place in October for a family wedding. Back then it was my wife and I, along with my mother in law and our dogs. We absolutely loved the house, the two living rooms were convenient and the property was gorgeous. My wife and I promised to return as a couple with our dogs and Valentines was the best time. The owner Bob remembered us from the first trip and we both knew the instructions. This second trip was even better. Just relaxing and taking in the cool wooded air. Neighbors are great, walking trials are amazing and we were only a 10 min drive from shopping plazas in case we needed something. We loved every minute and we may return again down the line, that's how great it is out there.

Summary: This is our second time at the "Happy Place" and once again we had a wonderful time. A very comfortable place with so much to do & see plus a short drive from the Valley. Your kids and dogs well love the running creek on the property. The trees and scenery around the creek will make you feel like you're in a different world. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you'll need. Finally, the hosts went above and beyond with great restaurant & hiking recommendations.

Summary: The name of this house is for a reason because it truly is a Happy Place. It was a very large comfortable peaceful house. My wife, mother in law, and sister in law were there for a family wedding near by. We took our dogs and they loved the open front yard. The view was amazing and the neighbors around the house were sweethearts. The host was communicate and always available when we had questions. Check in was easy and the check out even easier compared to other houses we rented in the past. This home is highly recommended for families looking for a calm peace getaway.

Summary: The hosts have certainly provided everything one could possibly expect! House was immaculate and beds were comfortable. The only downside was the rough road getting to it which they don’t control. There were games to play indoors and out and a great covered porch in back. Would definitely stay there again.
