Very nice home furnished with amenities to begin a relaxing stay. The home was very well stocked with everything needed. It was a very close to things to do in the area.
We have been going to Arizona for many years and stayed at many fine places but by far this is the best! Spotlessly clean, well stocked with everyday items, and well managed. Peter and Lesley are the best.
The accommodations were fantastic. The best stocked house of any rental we’ve ever stayed. The location is quiet and very relaxing. Close to restaurants, groceries and major roadways for easy travel around town. The hosts provided extra touches that made you feel right at home. We would definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises.
Beautiful home with great amenities, including outdoor area. Hosts supply everything you could possibly want or need. Neighborhood is very nice and quiet, with great trails a couple minutes away. Will be visiting again for sure.
This property was absolutely the best VRBO experience I have ever had! Super clean with lovely decor! The kitchen was stocked and had such nice dishes and cookware! We loved having good water to use with the water machine! The couches and beds were so comfortable along with fresh and clean bedding, towels, and blankets. I loved the lighting options which provided nice ambience! The views from both the backyard and front were amazing and peaceful! The comfort and cleanliness made this place feel like home!!!! Loved our experience here!!
This is a great house to stay at for a long term visit. The home is in beautiful condition, very clean, with all high end furnishings. The owners have made accommodations for every little thing you could ever need for your stay there. The backyard is amazing with a fire pit and right up against the mountain. I highly recommend staying here.
Description and reviews created high expectations for this property and it did not disappoint! Very enjoyable stay and the owners are great to work with. This was the cleanest and best equiped rental we have had in the past 12 years of winter visits to AZ. Lesley let us know that March became available and we jumped at the chance to rent again.

We recently had the pleasure of staying in this rental as we finalized our move to Arizona from another state. We ended up booking for a bit longer than originally expected and we couldn't have asked for a better experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the owners had gone above and beyond to keep the space impeccably maintained and thoughtfully stocked. It truly had everything we could possibly need - everything from pool goggles to laundry detergent and kitchen gadgets - making our extended stay not just convenient but genuinely comfortable each and every day.In our first week here, my husband started his new job where he'd be commuting to the office each day while I continued working remotely. We were both able to quickly settle into our new routines with the at-home desk setup, new coffee maker and options for disposable/reusable to-go cups that were available for our immediate use. While I want to avoid having my emotions overshadow any part of this review, I can sincerely say that this rental became a bit of a sanctuary for us during a huge life transition.Our hosts were kind and prompt with all communication every step of the way and I would wholeheartedly recommend this option to anyone needing a place in Arizona - whether it's for a short vacation or a longer stay like ours.It's rare to find a rental that feels like a true home away from home .. but this one truly hits the mark!
We highly recommend this location if you are looking for comfort and tranquility This was our second stay at this location. It was as amazing as the first. The home is well stocked with just about every home & office item you will need. The quail family on the mountain in the back go west in the morning and east in the evening. They are really cute. It is a very safe location away from the big city. Five star⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating in my book.
This is a very beautifully decorated home with all the fine features and comforts of home. It is well appointed and stocked and in a very quiet & safe affluent area. The beds are super comfortable and everything I can think of that someone would need is available. We didn't use the business supplies but it was nice knowing it was available if anything came up. If you are looking for a comfortable, well maintained, and relaxing location, this is it! Five star ***** home! We loved it and hope to be back sometime!
My husband and I stayed at this home for three weeks. From booking to check-out this was an excellent experience. The hosts are extremely responsive. The home is even better than the pictures. This home is extremely clean and organized, very well appointed with EVERYTHING you need and then some! The kitchen was stocked with staples like common condiments and spices, coffee, baggies, foil, paper towels, etc. that you are encouraged to use. We even needed a sewing kit when a button popped off and found a complete perfect kit in the laundry room to use! It was above and beyond what's normally offered and very much appreciated! The beds are very comfortable with loads of pillows and clean comfy linens. There are multiple lounging areas in the home as well as on the private back patio with several seating options to enjoy the nice days. The home office desk setup was perfect for our needs. The only challenge for us was because of the home's location in the foothills our cell carrier (Verizon) didn't get a signal. We put our phones on the wireless and did fine with them, and there is a land line at the home as well so we were never out of touch. The area is quiet, close to a grocery store and several restaurants. We walked down to the trail head several times and hiked Telegraph Pass, it's just down the road. Overall we really enjoyed our stay at this home and would definitely return and highly recommend! Thank you for an excellent experience Lesley!
Everything was GREAT! The property was well stocked and spotlessly clean. The hosts were extremely gracious and willing to always be helpful. I am highly recommending this property. Thanks for the wonderful stay.
Owners were excellent to deal with they even took the time to come meet us. If you ever want a home away from home this is it, anything and everything you need was supplied and well stocked . Would definitely recommend staying here ..
Next year will be our Third Winter of renting this property! It’s every bit of a 5 Star. It’s very clean, classy, comfortable, remodeled, modern & complete in all respects. It’s everything as disclosed and much more. The bathrooms, kitchen and living rooms are complete with everything needed. The backyard is great with plenty furniture and dining table,fire pit, grill with beautiful sunsets and Mountain View’s. The owner is a pleasure to deal with and very responsive. A real treat to stay there. Dave H
Although my stay was work related, it was comfortable and relaxing. The location is perfect especially with the new highway which allows you to get to anything you may want to see.
I would definitely stay again.
This property greatly exceeded my expectations! The owner was very easy to deal with and immediately responsive to requests. The house and grounds are lovely and well-maintained.
