Beautiful Cottage

We just returned from a weekend trip to Happy Jack. I wish we could have stayed longer. The cottage was so inviting and adorable. You can tell there was a lot of thought put into the construction. For example, there is a beam across the kitchen where the wiring for the ceiling fan and lights were hidden. The ladder going up to the loft was very safe. The kitchen had everything you may need. The bed was very soft! The entire cottage is extremely clean. The owners kindly ask that you remove your shoes when inside which I respect and appreciate. Overall, a lovely stay.

Better than it looked in the listing

Was larger and prettier than it looked in the listing. Very cozy and warm with nice hiking around. Was very clean and the owner had even left homemade cookies out! (Which were delicious, thank you!) If I had to nitpick, my only suggestion would be if the owners added more curtains (there was only one over the bedroom window). It was a bit unnerving at night knowing anything outside could see in. Either way it was an extremely pleasant experience and great getaway. Would absolutely go back =)

Anniversary weekend

The Haven was the perfect place to get away from the Phoenix heat and really enjoy the cooler temps of northern Arizona. The cottage is nestled in a nice, quiet residential neighborhood, but when you sit on the back porch you feel like miles away from anyone. The cottage is adorable, beautifully appointed and had most of the amenities we needed. Linda was very easy to work with and we loved the homemade cookies and note she left for us upon our arrival! The cottage is equipped with internet and satellite tv, but my husband missed having a radio in the kitchen. Phone service for us was very spotty, and although we do love the Happy Jack area, you definitely need to travel a good distance to do any shopping for food, etc. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would definitely stay again.

Wonderful little hideaway

I'll start off by saying that this hidden gem looks even better in person. The pictures don't do it justice. Literally everything you need is supplied and the cabin is spotless! There's great attention to detail provided by the host and they are always a phone call away if you need anything. The host even invited my wife and I over to enjoy their campfire. I really want to give this listing five stars but I have two concerns. The hot water for the shower is supplied by a tankless hot water heater. Once you get the shower temp to your liking; the water temperature fluctuates as the system cycles on and off. You may get very hot water one moment and cool water the next. We found that it's best to leave the water running throughout the whole shower. We hate wasting water in doing so though. The second issue is the mattress on the queen bed. It needs replacing as the center of the mattress is sunk in and the body support is long gone. My wife ended up sleeping on the couch for three nights. All that being said; we would definitely rent this cabin again.
