***** “My husband and I just had a great stay here in Payson at Thunder Mtn. The backyard views are wonderful. We enjoyed a lot of time sitting out on the patio. The home is cozy and comfortable and decorated so nice. Everything is nice and new. We will definitely be coming back again to visit.” - Wendy B., May 2023
