The Space:

The second you pull into the driveway of this Chandler retreat, you can feel it: this is the house where the group trip actually happens. Step inside and the modern bohemian living room, with its plush gray sofa, egg chair, and cozy electric fireplace, sets a relaxed tone before the backyard steals the show. Out back you've got a private heated pool, a hot tub, a fire pit for stargazing, a BBQ grill, and outdoor dining space, plus a putt-putt green and cornhole for friendly competition. Head into the garage-turned-game-room and you'll find a pool table, foosball, shuffleboard, arcade games, and a hanging queen-sized bed for extra sleeping space.



Sleeping arrangements:



• Bedroom 1 (upper level): King bed, en-suite full bath

• Bedroom 2 (upper level): King bed

• Bedroom 3 (upper level): Two full-over-full bunk beds

• Bedroom 4 (main level): Queen bed

• Game room: Hanging queen-sized bed



With 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a bonus hanging bed in the game room, this home sleeps up to 12 and is built for big family reunions, golf trips, or a group that wants room to spread out. The main-level bedroom is a nice option for guests who'd rather skip the stairs, though most of the sleeping space is upstairs. A pack 'n play and high chair are on hand for the littlest guests, and yes, the pup is welcome too! Our local team is around throughout your stay, so you can just relax and enjoy everything this house has to offer.



Guest Access:

Guests have access to the entire home via keypad entry, with the exception of a locked owner's closet.



The Neighborhood:

Tucked into a quiet residential pocket of Chandler, this home puts you close to some of the East Valley's best golf courses, just a few minutes away. Chandler Fashion Center, with its shopping and dining, is about a 10-minute drive, and Tempe's sports and entertainment scene is roughly 15 minutes out. Downtown Chandler's walkable strip of breweries, restaurants, and boutique shops is also a short drive away for evenings out. Ride-share is readily available throughout the area if anyone wants to leave the driving to someone else.



Getting Around:

A car is the easiest way to explore everything Chandler has to offer, and driveway parking fits up to 4 vehicles, with street parking also available for extra guests. Uber and Lyft run reliably in the area if you'd rather skip the rental car for a night out.

Soaking up sunshine

Went to the valley to get out of the cold for a few days. Made some hikes in the Superstitions. Enjoyed having a comfortable place to swim and relax in the hot tub. Nice home, nice neighborhood.

Mixed experience

This house has a lovely pool and game room. Someone has done a nice job decorating and making it very fun. We had some troubles though, and would mention a couple of things. The microwave was broken and it took multiple phone calls to get someone out to fix it. It was basically fix the last day of a five day stay. The carpets and other textiles are very worn and were a little dirty. I would like to have rated higher. Maybe we just caught them on a bad day
