Property Description

Cozy Rim Trail Cabin Backing National Forest - Cooler Temps, Big Adventure Escape the heat and unwind in this charming mountain cabin nestled in the desirable Rim Trail area of Payson, Arizona, at an elevation of 5700 feet This cozy 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom retreat offers 536 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space surrounded by the beauty of towering pines. Set against the backdrop of the Tonto National Forest, this property truly delivers the ultimate outdoor lifestyle. Step right off your backyard into miles of forest trails--perfect for hiking, hunting (Unit 22 North), ATV riding, or simply enjoying nature. The East Verde River is just a short walk away, offering year-round fishing and endless opportunities for fun in the water. This peaceful getaway stays approximately 15-20 degrees cooler than the Valley and about 5 degrees cooler than Payson, making it an ideal summer retreat. Whether you're looking for a weekend escape or a quiet place to recharge, this cabin provides the perfect balance of comfort and adventure. Additional features include a 550-gallon water storage tank and a semi-permanent canvas tent--perfect for hosting extra guests. The tent comfortably accommodates a queen-size bed and includes a small wood-burning stove, creating a cozy and unique guest space. The property also includes a convenient storage shed to house all your tools and outdoor items securely. It has been lovingly enjoyed by us for over 21 years. It has been a place filled with memories, laughter, and time well spent together. If you're dreaming of cool mountain air, forest views, and easy access to outdoor recreation right from your doorstep, this cabin is a rare opportunity you won't want to miss. What we've loved most about this cabin is the lifestyle it brings--peaceful, grounding, and centered around nature. Getting here is part of the experience, as the scenic drive winds past the East Verde River crossings, through towering pines, and often alongside sightings of majestic elk. By the time you arrive in the Rim Trail community, there's a sense of calm that truly sets in--like you've left the stress of everyday life behind. Even during times of high fire restrictions when access to the forest may be limited elsewhere, we've always been able to enjoy our cabin and the beauty that surrounds it. Days are filled with simple pleasures--walking to the river, exploring nearby trails, or just relaxing in the quiet of the forest. Nights bring cool mountain air and star-filled skies that never get old. Though cozy in size, the cabin has comfortably brought us together for years. With space to sleep everyone--including three queen beds--it's been the perfect place for holidays. Just 20-25 minutes away, the town of Payson offers convenient access to shopping and dining, while still allowing you to return to the peace and quiet of your own private retreat in the pines. This has truly been a place to slow down, reconnect, and create lasting memories
