The Details:

Situated in Residential Estates our large 2,500 sqft house offers great views of the Lake Havasu golf course, palm trees, mountains and even a peek-a-boo view of the lake. Our home is centrally located and just minutes away from the lake, London Bridge, grocery stores, restaurants, bars and downtown shopping. We have a private gunite pool with brand new Pentair automation controlled pool equipment including a 400K BTU natural gas heater (pool can be heated with an additional fee). In October 2022 we had the pool re-plastered, new tile, turtle pool mosaics and added a 15" deep baja shelf. The pool is surrounded by palm trees, has an in-pool margarita table with water seating and an umbrella, Jacuzzi, a large new Cool Deck area with padded wicker patio furniture, huge covered patio with outdoor carpet, a high pressure misting system over the patio, ceiling fans, tables, chairs, natural gas BBQ with a side burner, and less than 50 feet from the green of the golf course where you can watch and listen to golfers doing their thing. We call the home our Havasu Hideout and I'm sure you will love it as much as we do.

On the back deck we have an 80-Quart rounded beverage rolling cooler that you can use to keep outdoor drinks cold, and not have to go in and out of the house to refresh your beverages. Our latest indoor additions are a Coffee Bar and an Ice Maxx Ice Maker. The ice maker makes up to 65 lbs. per day so that our guests have plenty of ice on those warm summer days at the house or at the lake, and also to keep the patio beverage cooler full of ice.

The house is 2,500 sqft with 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a living room, dining room, kitchen and game room with lots of areas to spread out. The beds are real beds (3 king, 2 queen and 4 twin beds) so we can fit up to 14 people without having to sleep on couches or on the floor. All rooms in the house are tiled except for the bedrooms and loft, which had new carpet installed in January 2021. There is a parking pad across the front of the house for boat and RV parking.

We have two NEST thermostat operated full size central air conditioners, one for each side of the house. They keep the house pretty cool but we added a large 23K BTU (2-ton) Mr Cool ductless mini-split AC unit in the loft and in June 2022 we added a 12K BTU unit in the Master Bedroom. We like it ice cold when we sleep and thought our guests might like that option too. The living room ceiling is almost 20 feet high and the loft was usually a couple of degrees warmer than the rest of the house so that's why we added the mini-split. With four air conditioners we can keep the house nice and cool all summer.

Our place is an easy drive from the 95 with it being about 5 minutes up Acoma or Jamaica, which have 35 mph speed limits and just one stop sign. This was important to us as many of the homes in Havasu we've stayed at took 15 to 20 minutes to navigate all of the side streets and required a phone GPS to find it or to drive anywhere else from there. If you've been to Havasu before you know how maddening the street layouts are. To get to the London Bridge from our home you drive by two houses, make a right turn, another four houses, make a right turn, stay on the same street for another six minutes and you're there. Easy! The priorities for us in finding a home were the location, a pool, size of the house, and views. Our Havasu Hideout hits all those buttons and more.

Residential Estates is one of the few areas in Lake Havasu that has natural gas for heating and appliances. We have natural gas for the pool/jacuzzi heater, furnaces, hot water heater, clothes dryer, fireplace, BBQ, and the oven and stove. How many people out there say that they'd prefer an electric stove to a gas one? We hear the opposite from people all the time and most locals in Lake Havasu say they would love to have gas appliances. Cooking with gas is more precise, and allows the cook to control the exact amount of heat underneath a pot. A cook can roast peppers over a gas burner, char or warm tortillas, toast marshmallows for desserts, and do other things an electric stove does not easily allow. We also have underground utilities. That means no power poles or power lines that seem to always and annoyingly be in the pictures of other homes we've stayed at in the area.

Speaking of views, not only do we have the amazing "palm tree row" lined golf course view all the way down to the lake. We also have great mountain views, including the local landmark called Cupcake Mountain. The best view though is seen by sitting on the back patio looking down to the pool and decking and over a short wall and gate leading to the golf course. The pool has three bright red Kokopelli metal hangings on the wall posts behind the pool for a splash of color and a fun discussion topic. Kokopelli is a Native American fertility deity (god or goddess), usually depicted as a humpbacked flute player, and somewhat popular around the Lake Havasu area.

Showers:

An important point recently brought to our attention is that many of the homes in Lake Havasu and all of the ones that we've stayed at have only two bathrooms with showers, the typical 3BR 2BR home. One is in the master so it is often only used by the people in that room. The second bathroom with a shower tends to be a "community shower" with people waiting to use it, especially after coming back from the lake. All four of our bathrooms have showers so there is no lining up or waiting for that lake water rinse-off.

The Backyard:

Our family, friends and guests love the back yard and we spend most of our time there. We start off with morning coffee and watch/listen to the early morning golfers. It's fun to watch them as they drive towards the green (par 4 if you're interested), sometimes landing in the sand trap, chipping onto the green and putting in. I'm an occasional golfer and it's fun to see how many people 3-putt like I always seem to do. The golf course management is okay with people walking their dogs on the course later in the day and early evening so you sometimes see them and you are welcome to walk around the course as well. We even chip a few balls on the green and practice our putting on it from time to time. There is a gate from our backyard to the course so you can explore some too if you'd like, just don't get us in trouble if you interfere with the golfers or bother the neighbors.

It's great to eat meals on the carpeted and covered patio, cool off in the pool, spend time at the margarita table (in the pool) under the umbrella sipping adult beverages, relaxing on the deck around the pool (under another umbrella) and in the Jacuzzi at night. The patio has overhead lights, ceiling fans, and speakers for the whole house music system. We have a backyard kitchen overlooking the pool and golf course that has a natural gas BBQ and a side burner. There is an air conditioned bathroom attached to the house but only accessible from the outside door.

CONCLUSION: I know I wrote a book here and if you read my listing all the way to the end I'd like to thank you for that. I try to be very thorough and make sure to communicate everything about the house and what our place has to offer. I'm proud of what we've done with our home when I'm there with family and friends and am quite confident you will have a great time if you decide to book it.

what a blast, even if we are stuck at the house all day
I love the house and the owners are really great! there was so much to do at the house, and it was very comfortable! We had a boat for three days and now I would’ve rather stayed at the house at least one of those to just chill out and relax the views were amazing as well!

Great spot right on the golf course…plenty to do at the house.
The house was clean, had many amenities that made the property that much more enjoyable (pool table, dedicated ice machine, shaved ice machine, pool, spa, golden tee golf arcade machine, and outdoor games). Kitchen had everything we needed to cook up breakfast, lunch and dinners (tri tips on the bbq). Clean bedding and easy check out. Pool had some mechanical cleaning issues but was usable during our stay. Overall a great spot for a large group.

Beautiful home with a great host!
My family and some others stayed here for 5 days and we loved every minute of it! The home was clean and inviting and the host, Michael, was wonderful to work with. The process from leading up to and during our visit was so smooth and worry-free and the fact that the host is the owner was great. It made staying there more personable rather than being in a home managed by a rental company or real estate agent. The champagne in the fridge for us and the personalized letter upon arriving was a great touch as well. The house is packed full of amenities that kept 9 adults thoroughly entertained the entire time and I loved that there were multiple AC units in the home to stay cool in the Havasu heat. We have stayed at many homes in Havasu throughout the last couple of years and have never had one that we genuinely enjoy so we will definitely stay here again!

Everything we expected plus A LOT more
Michael is an excellent host/owner. His detailed manual covered everything. My son and his girlfriend did call Michael with a quick question regarding the jacuzzi (although the answer was in the manual 😊). He answered promptly and was just as helpful on the phone as he was throughout the rental process. The house is beautiful and was everything we expected plus A LOT more. It's all in the details. Switches were labeled so we weren't guessing what lights or fans would turn on/off. Plenty of nice towels, extra blankets, etc. There was an abundance of necessities such as trash bags, toilet paper, cooking utensils, pots/pans which are top of the line and a breeze to wash. The ice maker and the cute ice bags helped keep our drinks cold. The chilled champagne and welcome letter was a thoughtful gesture and enjoyed. The views were awesome and we enjoyed watching the golfers in the morning or in the evening (when it was cooler). Our group of family and friends enjoyed the house and were just as impressed as I was. Plenty of space and a lot of fun memories were made here as we spent time together. Looking forward to possibly renting again next summer for our annual trip. Would definitely recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Donovan

Host profile image
Almost 30 years ago I was fortunate enough to be able to buy a vacation home in Big Bear Lake, CA. It was a second home for us and my boys had their own rooms there growing up. Over the years we kept adding things to make it more enjoyable for our family & friends. We made a game room with a pool table, ping pong table, arcade games and lots of fun things. We added more beds so we could have multiple families come up and spent most Holidays with us enjoying what we called our "cabin-house". Like most families, as the kids grew up we began going there less and less often.

In 2016 we contemplated selling the house but after doing some research we decided that we'd try renting the house to short term guests and that way we'd still be able to use it ourselves. We quickly realized how unique it was and how much everyone enjoyed it. We found out that we liked sharing it with others and loved that they enjoyed some of the experiences we had at house over so many years.

Fast forward 6 years, 250+ bookings and over 2,500 guests who have stayed at our home. We had our cabin-house in the mountains with the winter snow, cool fresh air, pine trees, unique hiking trails and even lake activities. We thought about getting another vacation home but in an area somewhat the opposite of Big Bear. A vacation destination with a lake but with warm desert water and lots of fun new things to see and do.

We visited Lake Havasu many times and loved it so we decided Havasu was the place for us to get a second vacation home. The lake is huge and has lots of neat features to explore and enjoy. Having the London Bridge in the middle of the desert certainly made the area interesting. Havasu seemed to have a lot of year-round activities going on including boat and car shows, fairs, concerts, tournaments, fishing, golfing, shopping, exhibits and festivals. Lake Havasu truly lives up to it's nickname as Arizona's Playground and I'm so happy with our decision to buy our house there.

Why they chose this property

We learned a lot about how to make our Big Bear home a fun and relaxing place for people to enjoy the mountains and how to be great hosts. Given the right home in Lake Havasu we could make another new amazing place for us and our guests to enjoy. In February 2021 (after the pandemic started settling down) we bought what we call our "Havasu Hideout." We immediately loved spending time both at the house and exploring the surrounding areas. Our goals at our Havasu Hideout are similar to the ones in Big Bear. Have a place in a great location with amazing views, large enough to accommodate multiple families, a fun game room, but instead of winter snow activities we have an amazing lake to explore, desert trails nearby and a pool at home to relax and enjoy the Arizona sun.

What makes this property unique

We truly feel that our Havasu home is quite unique. We looked at dozens of homes in Havasu before deciding on this one. It seemed that most homes were the typical three bedroom, two bath homes, rectangular in shape with a backyard looking at a block wall. Our highlight section in the listing gives bullets and the details but in my opinion the things that make it so unique are:

• Location in Residential Estates with the golf course views, underground utilities and natural gas
• Nice size heated pool with Jacuzzi, pool seating, umbrellas, volleyball and pool toys
• Huge carpeted outdoor patio, keeping you out of the sun to dine, relax and enjoy your time outdoors
• Lots of indoor and outdoor games so our guests have no shortage of fun
• FOUR air conditioners so our guests can keep cool on those hot Havasu days
• 65 lbs/day Ice Maker so you'll have plenty of ice
• 75" TV with DirecTV so you don't have to watch shows using Apps or streaming
• Lots of REAL beds (including three king beds) so adults and kids have plenty of room
• FOUR bathrooms with showers so large groups can get that lake water rinse off
• Whole house music system where you can stream your music from mobile devices
• Quiet, convenient location close to stores, restaurants and close to the new Havasu Riviera marina and launch ramp
