Peaceful Summer Refuge

The Hen House was a lovely retreat from the scorching Phoenix weather. We had a wonderful stay in the quiet casita between our time exploring downtown. So very grateful to our hosts--and thank you, Larry, for the extra help with loading our car! We would love to be back, and we highly reccomend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful stay.

Cute Casita

We only stayed for one night but it was perfect for us. The casita is a great little place that had everything we needed for our stay. The proximity to downtown was great, we walked down there in about 30 minutes and took a short Lyft ride back. The hosts have thought of pretty much everything and are very friendly. We would definitely stay again if we needed a place in town.

Peaceful Getaway

What a beautiful property and little casita. We loved it! In fact, we didn't even go out to dinner because we didn't want to leave the lovely space. Took a stroll thru the historic neighborhood in the evening - so charming. We loved every minute of it. Larry was a great host - communicative, personable and welcoming while giving us our space. A wonderful experience.
