The Kachina Pueblo was an absolutely incredible retreat for my family and me. The spectacular views and privacy - WOW! The fact that the space is pet friendly completed the stay for us. We hope it is available again in the future and would be grateful if we could return. Chuck and Mimi are wonderful host and the sauna and gym access certainly was the icing on the cake.

We enjoyed the stay. The place was clean and comfortable. We chose this location as we were hunting close by and did not feel like roughing it. We had no problems. It is at the end of a road overlooking Payson..very nice. Note that the residence was probably built in the early 80's (sorry I am an architect and details) and we loved the period textile art.

Overall good getaway for Holiday. Definitely secluded with views. The couch definitely needs replaced. Additional seating would recommended. The grill does not work recommend checking regulator as switching tank did not work unable to grill steaks, barely warmed. Not all burners work on stove We adapted, as it was all about being together

This property and home were beautiful. We used the sauna after hiking all day, then relaxed on the patio. Location was nice and quiet, very scenic. We woke up to see to a few visitong elk and a javalina in the morning. The home was very clean and nicely furnished. 10/10 experience and would definitely recommend to anyone.
