Great home, great space away from the city!

Beautiful home, with plenty of space for everyone. Pool was great, & beautiful views with lots of wildlife to see all day. Loved this place! It is in on a dirt road and you are a ways away from things, but uber rides were easy & successful!

360 views and serenity.

House was gorgeous with a well stocked kitchen and appliances. Amazing how close it is to Phoenix but feels like a different world. The landscaping alone has be a million easily. Pool table, shuffle board, basketball court and a putting green were awesome.

Week long stay

Great property. Relatively easy to get to. Very peaceful and quiet. Good neighborhood. Only downside was the water pressure for the showers and how long it takes for the hot water. Other than that, great!

We have stayed at this property four times over the years but it has been five years since we have been back. Needs someone to give it some love. Inside is the same and in good condition but outside area and pool need some attention.

Our stay at this stunning property was truly memorable. The breathtaking sunrises and sunsets created a majestic backdrop. We used both the main house and the casitas to comfortably host 10 adults and two elderly dogs. The spacious layout and concrete floors kept us cool during the desert heat. Although one casita’s shower was unavailable, the three in the main house were sufficient. The indoor and outdoor seating areas were plentiful for relaxing and socializing. The well-stocked kitchen and nearby Safeway and Costco made shopping easy. The pool and games outside were incredibly well lit and used by all, and the outside fan a bonus. Our dogs enjoyed morning walks along quiet roads, watching rabbits, roadrunners, quails, and lizards. We kept them on leashes for safety, and brought a UV light for scorpion hunting, which was fun and safe. The basketball court was a hit with the youngest, especially after discovering the pump nearby. The second fridge and large walk-in pantry were very helpful, and the extra towels appreciated. For car sick folks the part of the drive was on a windy the dirt road but, GPS is correct. It took as a minute to work out all the light switches so perhaps more labels for the unmarked light switches. The three-car garage was a great perk. Thank you to the host for sharing this incredible property. Your hospitality made our stay special. We highly recommend this retreat for anyone seeking stunning views and amenities in a peaceful setting.

Great House

The house and setup were perfect. A couple of thing to note. There was no hot water in the kitchen during our stay. The good news, the dishwasher heated the water to wash the dishes. We did report to the property manager, but it was not resolved. Also, the listing shows 4 king size beds, but there were only 3. We specifically chose the property based on 4 king sized beds. Other than those 2 items, we had a great time and loved how the house was setup.
