The property is spacious and well maintained. We got off to a rough start however because it wasn't ready at check in time and no communication of that was made. 45 minutes later we got in. Some essential supplies were missing from one house or the other- trash bags, washcloths, etc. but between the two houses we were able to find things we needed. Leeann responded quickly and the supply issues were resolved the next day. Listing says sleeps 24 but be aware you will be charged extra for more than 16. We had 18. Two were 2yo and slept in packnplays we brought. Still got the extra charge. Location is great.

The home was perfect for our large family, 8 adults and 9 grandchildren. The kitchen was well stocked with large cookware for us to use for making meals. The location was also perfect, the home backed up to a forest we didn’t feel like we were in the city at all. We visited the Grand Canyon, went to Sedona, then the meteor crater. The hosts were very responsive to my questions too! Thank you!

This property was perfect for our needs. Plenty of dining space (inside on outside) and plenty of conversation areas. We loved the game room too. The location was ideal for us. At the base of a mountain, in a cul de sac, within the city limits and yet private and secluded feeling. We appreciated all the parking space available.

Our family had a wonderful stay at this property. The house was clean, spacious, and stocked with everything we needed to feel comfortable and enjoy our time there. The owners were friendly and easy to communicate with, which made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.We especially loved the large tables—both indoors and out on the deck—which were perfect for family meals and game nights. The kids absolutely loved the bunk room; it was tough to get them to come out!Check-in was simple and straightforward. The check-out process had a few more requirements than we expected, especially considering the 300 cleaning fee, but it wasn’t a big deal for us since we tend to tidy up anyway.A quick note about the trail behind the house—it’s best suited for hiking, as it’s too rocky for biking. Still, the hikes were beautiful and enjoyable.

Perfect for Big Families- kid friendly, fun and easy stay!

We had a fantastic stay here for our friend reunion. The home was spacious, clean, and incredibly kid-friendly for our group of 7 children ages 2 to 10. The casita and game room were huge hits, and the layout worked perfectly for our group. The hosts were also very easy to communicate with and responsive throughout our stay.We had everything we needed to enjoy time together in the home and to go out on adventures in the local Flagstaff area. The checkout process is quite detailed, so set aside a little extra time for that. Still a 10/10 experience and we would absolutely love to stay again.

Family Reunion in Flagstaff

We gathered six households from our extended family in this wonderful Flagstaff home near the base of Mt. Eldon. It had tremendous gathering spaces for adults and children. Our favorite times were evening meals on the deck. We also enjoyed hiking the trails straight out the back of this property. This home has great proximity to downtown Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon. Our host was tremendous to work with! We highly recommend this property for large group.
