About this cabin rental
Listen to the trickling stream from your back porch. Watch butterflies play in the fruit trees. Pick a few blackberries and dip your toes in the water...
Blackberry Cabin is a cozy log cabin set back on an acre of pine and fruit trees in the community of Whispering Pines. The fenced backyard leads to the banks of the East Verde, sometimes a gushing river, other times a rocky stream, where locals wade and catch the stocked trout. Riverbanks are lined by grass, flowers and blackberries which you are welcome to pick! Our property includes a unique stone embankment where swallows and other birds like to zip by, with a steep hill behind leading to national forest land. Watch for wandering deer and elk!
Inside there is an open living and dining area with a fully stocked kitchen - just bring your favorite food! There is a loft bedroom with a pleasant sitting area close to the air on warm afternoons, with room for friends or family in the sleeper couch below. On cool fall or winter nights the toasty wood stove will keep you warm with that lovely radiant heat.
Whispering Pines is a small neighborhood of full time residents and visitors escaping the heat and bustle of the city! It is minutes from excellent hiking trails at Washington Park and various public access points on the East Verde. In addition to proximity to the ever-increasing line up of activities in Payson, it is close to local attractions like Tonto National Bridge, and the towns of Strawberry and Pine.

Cabin was very clean and the amenities were very useful. Could always hear the River while eating breakfast out on the patio:)

What a great vacation getaway! It was comfortable, well equipped and the owners made sure we had everything we needed. We didn’t need to bring anything. We enjoyed quiet evenings and mornings outdoors. If you are looking for a peaceful time away, this is the place.

The cabin itself is a cute layout, the issue is a musty smell when you walk in. From there it just seemed to have gotten a little worse, the closet upstairs has a stale urine odor as well as in the bathroom. It's very outdated which is fine other than the carpet in the bathroom. When we went to bed there were children's underwear made into the bed. The blinds in the bathroom were very dusty and the bath mat in the shower has mold. The driveway is also meant for smaller compact vehicles. Unfortunately we drive bigger vehicles (lifted trucks) and in order for us to get in and out we had to go into the neighbors property just to be able to turn around to get out. The scenery was beautiful, the porch on the back deck was perfect for a quiet morning. I think this cabin has great potential if cleaning was done a bit better and maybe some updates to at least the flooring due to the waxy feeling on the carpet.
