Beautiful, spacious house. Perfect location for the Renaissance Festival.

We stayed here with our friends and their son for the Renaissance festival. Plenty of room for the 5 of us. The nightly rate was similar to the local hotel we stayed at last year but staying at the house was so much more comfortable, felt like staying with a friend.

Great Spring Break Desert Getaway!

Beautiful and very comfortable home. Our small family of 3 (2+10 year old) found this home to be a great base for an active week of hiking, biking and exploring. Great location and everything we needed we found. Grill, hot tub and lounging chairs for soaking up the sun! Thank you for sharing your oasis with us!

Lovely stay!

My siblings and I had a wonderful stay at Don and Judy's place! The house is spacious and equipped with everything you need to make yourself at home. Don also went above and beyond to help when my sister locked herself out of the house. :)

Beautiful property.

This beautiful 3 bedroom home is located in an extremely quiet area of Gold Canyon. The three beds are really only big enough for 1 person. The pool was nice and clean but too cool for use at this time of year. Overall a great place especially when the weather is perfect as it was for us.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house. The pictures were very nice that they posted on the sight but when we got there it was more than what we expected. We really enjoyed the patio as we are from Minnesota, we had great weather. Thank you for sharing your house with us.

Family visit

Home is Beautiful! And very comfortable. We were four adults! Wish a grocery store was closer as we did not have a car rental but we used Uber and had no issues. We are water drinkers and needed to load up a few times. The pool was too cold to enjoy but a beautiful private backyard was enjoyed!

Beautiful Gold Canyon Home

Don and Judy’s home was beyond our expectations - beautiful inside and out. We spent as much time as possible in the backyard and enjoying the warm sun by the pool. The property is very close to the activities we enjoy (golf, hiking, exploring). It was a pleasure working with Don. He was always very quick to respond to our questions and requests. Don and Judy...thank you!

Stay in January 2025

Pro: location good, property was quiet, large space for the 4 adultsCons: hot tub was not working during our entire stay. Owner was notified and maintenance was not able to come out till the end of our 14 day stay. Owner was less then helpful and found to be unaccommodating. Couch was uncomfortable. Would I recommend this property: not for the price if the amenities are not fully functioning.

What a beautiful, comfortable home!

It was a perfect size for our family to host Thanksgiving dinner. The kitchen and was well equipped and the counter was large with plenty of chairs. Of course, the pool was too cold to use but we sat around the lovely patio area.

Great Gold Canyon

This was perfect for our family of four. Convenient to all that the east valley had to offer, Petroglyph Trail, Sully Mountain, Salt River Tubing, Goldfield Ghost Town, Tonto National Forest, etc. Scottsdale and Phoenix are only a little bit further.

Oasis.

We stayed here for spring break. The home is beautiful and private. Felt like we had our own little resort with the pool and the private back yard. The pool was immaculate, but a little chilly. In talking with the pool cleaner we found out that this is typical for the area. Very few pools are heated. The home is located in a very quiet, safe neighborhood so my wife was comfortable walking in the mornings. Truly a relaxing vacation. Owner was great to work with. One of the best vacations I've ever taken. We will definitely be back, and I would highly recommend the property for anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing getaway. Thanks Don and Judy for sharing your home!

Fantastic home in a great location!

This was our first 2 month winter stay in Arizona and we couldn’t have picked a better place. Don and Judy’s house was comfortable, well equipped and in a lovely quiet neighborhood. We loved the house’s proximity to the mountains and golf courses. It was a great place to hunker down in during the pandemic! We will definitely return!! Thanks Don and Judy!
