Elevated Getaway in the Pines—Pickleball, Porch Views & Endless Fun
Stay a While. The 4th Night’s On Us When available, we’re happy to elevate your escape with a complimentary extra night—just reach out to extend.
At Payson Heights, time is measured not by the hour, but by moments that matter: sunrise coffee on the wraparound porch, echoing laughter during family pickleball matches, and stories shared fireside under the stars. Nestled on five sprawling acres among whispering pines, this 9-bedroom, 6.5-bath estate was designed for reconnection and recreation.
Three living rooms offer space for everyone—from kids playing board games to adults relaxing with wine and a view. Indoors, a billiards room, ping pong table, and thoughtful game collection keep the energy flowing. Outdoors, two pickleball courts, horseshoes, and room to roam turn any afternoon into an adventure.
Want to turn your stay into something unforgettable? Ask about adding the optional private Saloon and guest house, a true crowd-pleaser that brings rustic charm and bonus space for larger groups. Whether you're celebrating, reminiscing, or simply escaping, Payson Heights delivers nature, comfort, and memories that linger long after checkout.
INDOOR FEATURES: ⦁ 9 bedrooms, plus loft and Murphy beds, sleeping up to 22 guests ⦁ Three spacious living rooms across multiple levels ⦁ Game-ready: billiards, ping pong, cards, board games, and more ⦁ Fully equipped kitchen and dining area ⦁ Baby-friendly supplies (high chair, pack & play, stroller) ⦁ Optional guest house and Old West-style Saloon available as add-ons
OUTDOOR FEATURES: ⦁ Five private acres surrounded by forest and fresh mountain air ⦁ Wraparound porch with scenic Rim Country views ⦁ Two pickleball courts, horseshoes, yard games ⦁ Fire pit and open-air seating for stargazing ⦁ EV Level 2 charger on site ⦁ Quick access to lakes, hiking trails, and outdoor adventure
Before Payson Heights, life might have felt a bit too noisy, too digital, too rushed. But here, surrounded by pines and people you love, the pace shifts. You listen more. You laugh more. And somewhere between porch mornings and pickleball tournaments, you remember how good it feels to just be.
