    Forest Lakes Lodge - Wiped 2 sft area of the floor. Disgusting.

    Totally Disgusting. This was the filthiest place I have ever stayed in the US or abroad. I don't…read morethink they EVER clean. This is a wet paper towel wiped on a 2x2 foot area of linoleum floor in front of the bathroom. This place should be condemned. In response to management comment: I appreciate the willingness to respond to customer dissatisfaction. You were also a pleasant fellow. HOWEVER, the lack of cleaning wasn't isolated to one room. We had two rooms, and both were filthy. Things looked just like the photos in Jacob C's review from several years ago, which means after the reviews and comments, nothing has changed. THE FOLLOWING ISSUES ARE FOR BOTH ROOMS. Rooms smelled like urine. Edges of carpet had dirt, dead bugs, and lint accumulation. No hard furniture surface was clean, and a wipe with a wet paper towel came back dirty. Microwave had a greasy top and dirty counter area with food crumbs and grease. Inside of refrigerator poorly wiped down, with hair, food crumbs, and grease present. Linoleum floor - well, my photo sums that up, and the entryway linoleum was dirty too, never mopped. Bathroom had been sprayed with disinfectant and wiped with a towel. There was a greasy yellow film on the toilet and sink from the disinfectant that had to be wiped off with a towel. The sink and showers drained poorly, and its not nice standing in 4 inch deep water for your shower. My bathroom had black streaks of what appeared to be mold on the walls. Overall, 1 to 2 hours of deep cleaning per room, and proper maintenance could help turn things around. Sadly, given the several year history of posts about being filthy, I doubt anything will change. To top it off, the beds were very old, completely worn out, and sank deeply in the center, probably 8 to 10 inches, and were uncomfortable.

A cough drop wrapper, and sinus medication. Now my boyfriend and I are stuck looking for lodging little bit of the night when nothing is open , while we don't wanna touch anything in the dang room. Do not waste your time.!

They have a cool upstairs balcony area. I know they have a few rooms and I think it would be fun to spend the night and wake up to the beautiful views.

    Our first time in Pine and excited to stay at this lodge even though only one night was available…read moreduring our trip. We planned to enjoy their views, a sandwich and glass of wine from their cafe/wine bar and perhaps a friendly conversation with a fellow guest. Sadly it was a big disappointment. The lodge is pretty, but ended up a strange place to stay because it was essentially closed to us. We booked online what was stated as the last of 8 rooms and paid their extra $35 to check-in 2 hours early. Their "SIP" cafe/wine bar is advertised as open to the public. We arrived at 2:30 pm only to find the cafe/wine bar was closed. Shortly after, from our balcony we noticed a man was on the property moving chairs and went downstairs to speak with him. The lodge appeared, sounded and felt completely empty so we asked him if anyone else was there to help us in the cafe. He said no one else was on the property and that the cafe was definitely closed and that he was "only there to set up for a private event for which the entire lodge had been booked." Huh? First we heard of this. At 3:35 pm I phoned their after-hours number and spoke with an owner Lisa who confirmed the lodge had been booked for a private group. She said the cafe had stayed open late for that group and should I have called 15 minutes prior someone in the cafe could have helped me. She also said they can't commit to hours of operation in the cafe because they have trouble keeping staff. Huh? Their website advertises outdoor cafe/wine bar seating that is open to the public and to lodging guests and it advertises outdoor games. However, the seating and games area appeared to be cordoned off for the private event. The cafe/wine bar hours posted on their website, in front of the cafe and in the room are all confusingly different and misleading. Nothing about our stay was relaxing. It was a terrible nights sleep and other than a midnight arrival in the room next door it seemed no one else was there. The lodge felt like a ghost town. By 7 am the parking lot was still empty, by 8:30 am there were a few cars and a couple people in front of the cafe. We thought we were booking a room at a lodge where other guests would be among us--not a private Airbnb. This lodge should never have taken our room reservation without first informing us that they rented out everything else to a private group. This place is pretty but also pretty strange. It was the most inhospitable hospitality environment we have ever not enjoyed. The owner was rudely indifferent. We definitely were not welcomed in the space. Not a good value for our $272 booking. Perhaps if you're a private room block group the place will be open and you'll receive some attention. We highly don't recommend it.

So close to a couple lakes and an overall perfect location! We came from 97 degrees to the 60s! My ONLY complaints were the shower head () it was awful! And the satellite didn't work very well so no TV which was fine but for families with kids might be an issue. But overall definite recommendation!

    The area is truly beautiful. And there is direct access to the forest. Next to this site is a…read moregated community so you do hear some minimal noise. The cabin was nice although I do think there should be an investment in updating. None of our glasses matched and most were plastic tumbler type. Our cabin was for 4 and yes, there were 4 folks, 4 spoons and 4 knives only. A maybe 2 inch circular soap is what was available for both hand washing and bathing. Seems one of the sleeping areas is the living room on a sofabed. The parking area and area around the cabins is very well lit at night - some may have suitable curtains, ours did not but was not as issue for us. There was no information on the cabin, the area, the rules, etc in our cabin which would have been helpful - there also didn't appear to be any onsite assistance anywhere. This is also a dog friendly place although you have to keep them on leash at all time. There is no enclosed area. The biggest negative for me/family was the unevenness of the walkways around the cabin. There a number of dips in the roadway and parking area and it is a steep incline. The kids play area is on a hill and the paved portion is so steep you gain way too much speed walking straight down - gotta zig zag. We both agreed if you had walking difficulties or had a walker, it was going to be challenging to get around. If you are planning a trip, be sure the check the local establishments times. We did not and all in the immediate area were closed Monday-Wednesday - this may just be the time of year though don't know. Be sure to pack what you want/need - although only 20 miles or so to Payson, its a long 20 miles.
