Wonderful Getaway
We spent a week at this lovely property. It was exactly as shown in the pictures, very comfortable and well equipped. Unfortunately the pool wasn’t heated during our stay but I think we were just in between seasons because the days were still quite warm. Otherwise it was a great vacation and we hope to go back!

Nice stay
We had a great time. Our check in was a bit unusual in that we had to request the code to get into the house as it was not provided in advance. Then the code provided did not work. However Kevin is super-responsive, answered his phone and provided a correct code so we could enter. The location is great. We enjoyed hiking in South Mountain Park and golfing at The Legacy. The house is surface-clean but both the house and yard would benefit from a deep clean. Kevin did come by to pull weeds during our stay. The bedding is very worn and it would improve this nice home to have it replaced.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin Helmuth

Host profile image
My wife and I are the original owners of this home. We lived there for many years until our family started to grow. I am originally from Denver while my wife is originally from the Philippines, although she grew up in Chicago. We love sports of all kinds and thoroughly enjoyed living in this location in part because of the easy access to multiple golf courses. We golf a lot and the Raven and the Legacy are still two of our favorite public courses in the city. Our welcome book has a list of the courses we recommend. We really love the central location and how it's only about 10 minutes to the airport. Even during rush-hour traffic never seems to be a problem because it always feels that you're going "against" rather than "with" traffic. In addition we enjoy hiking and/or biking and there are a lot of great hiking/biking trails within a 20 minute drive of the house.

We love the Phoenix climate and still live here, not far from this home. Both of us are health care providers and work locally.

Why they chose this property

We initially purchased this property because of the central location that allowed us easy access to the entire Valley. The area was an up and coming area that had a great deal of charm. Even though we were very much in the heart of the city, it didn't feel like it. On the back patio at night it's very quiet and serene. It feels more like you're out in the country rather than in the middle of a metropolitan area. We loved being surrounded by two gorgeous golf courses. We had the benefit of nice landscaping without having to do much work. The gated community was quaint and well-designed. We're dog owners and we appreciated that there was a very nice greenbelt in the center of the neighborhood that was perfect for walking the dog or playing with your kids. We also got the benefits of a nice pool and hot tub without having to do any maintenance.
Lastly, we fell in love with the floor plan. It was so open and inviting. The show-home was so well designed that we put most of the same upgrades into our own home.

What makes this property unique

This is a safe, gated-community neighborhood right in the heart of the action. Yet, given that our home opens up to the golf course, it is very private and serene. The layout of the home flows well. All of the space is functional. The home builder normally built luxury homes only so the quality of their upgrades and construction was better than most places. We travel a lot, so being 10 minutes from the airport was so convenient. Our family in town is spread out from the north to south end of the city. Being in-between we were able to get to both places in 25 minutes or less. It's pretty much that way with any place you want to go. Like us, you'll love how central the home is located.
