About this property

Cozy Studio Close to Hiking, Lake, Nature

This cozy studio is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the tranquility of the desert help to make this vacation get-away the perfect place to relax and enjoy.

Originally built as the showroom of the owner's pottery, we are happy that our guests can now enjoy this part of the space, with it's own separate entrance. The owner continues to work in the pottery on the other side of the studio, so be sure and ask for a tour!

Two large windows allow plenty of natural sunlight in, with a beautiful view of the Superstition Mountains.

The separate bathroom includes a large, custom tiled shower. The living area has a bookcase (lots of books, DVDs and games), loveseat, a chair, a smart TV and DVD player, closet, and a storage cabinet.

Outside, an outdoor patio and barbeque area are on the main level, and an awesome viewing deck above provides the perfect setting for a glass of wine at the end of the day.

There’s plenty to cook with including a convection oven, microwave oven, electric burner, skillet, pans, crock pot, single burner, coffee pot, teapot, and toaster. All cooking utensils, plates, glasses, etc., are included, as well as all linens, soap, shampoo, toilet paper, towels, dishes, and utensils.

We are located in the Arizona desert, closely surrounded by beautiful mountains, native plants, and occasional wildlife. We are within walking, hiking, and biking distance to Usery Mountain Park, which includes many walking and biking trails, a world class archery range and several picnic areas. Rio Salado Shooting range is 10 minutes away. The Superstition Mountains are 10 miles due east. The Salt River is nearby, home to the Salt River wild horses. There are also four lakes where you can enjoy fishing, boating, swimming, etc. Beautiful golf courses are also within a couple of miles.

The owners live on the same one-acre property in a separate residence, so if you need anything or have any questions, they are easily accessible.

This is a non-smoking, no partying, no pets property.

Nice quiet oasis

This property was so relaxing and comfortable. We spent most of our time hiking and this studio had everything we needed when we weren't. The hosts (Chip and Joelyn) were friendly and available when needed but not intrusive. Loved our stay and would definitely stay again! Thanks for sharing your beautify studio, your art, your gardens and insights about Phoenix!

JoAnna

Absolutely wonderful. Evening sunsets and morning sunrises with coffee on the roof were wonderful. The outdoor activities in this area are plentiful. It’s a quick trip to the Salt River and to check out the wild horses. Weather was fantastic in April. Sunny skies, cooler mornings and warmer afternoons. Highly recommend. We enjoyed meeting the hosts and checking out Chips pottery.

Oasis in the desert

This is a beautiful space to stay when visiting the Mesa area. It’s nice to be away from the landlocked parking lots of the city. Beautiful open space views of the mountains, sunrise and sunsets. Joelyn and Chip were very warm and welcoming and we appreciated their greeting upon arrival. Pictures represent the space very well, and kitchenette had more than we anticipated. The highlight for us was access to all of the walking trails, second to seeing and learning about Chip’s pottery kingdom. Definitely recommend having a car given the fact that the location is on the edge of the town of Mesa. We would definitely come back and stay again.

Great Getaway

Great cozy studio to getaway from the city, The Hosts are as nice as can be and make you feel very comfortable. The Firepit was always ready to go (cozy fire and smores at night) and there is also a great propane, weber grill to use for grilling. Close to hiking and the mountains. The rooftop is awesome too. Get a tour of the pottery studio too, the artwork is amazing. This is definitely a hidden gem - Will stay again if in the area.

Slice of tranquility

I was so lucky to stay at this property and meet this wonderful couple that took absolute impeccable care of me. They were respectful of me wanting to have some time to myself as I have a stressful job, offer helpful tips about the area and made sure I was pampered and cared for when I needed it most. The property is absolutely beautiful and peaceful even in 100 degree heat.

March getaway

This very clean and organized bachelor pad had everything we needed for our stay. Desert walking trails are right at our doorstep and it is quiet and away from the traffic and crowds in Pheonix. We were easily able to visit all the attractions we hoped to see while in the area such as Taliesin, Desert Botanical Garden, Tortilla Flat, Boyce Thompson Arbouretum, plus others. The owners were very helpful and genuinely nice people.

The Nature Enthusiast's Casita

This property is in a spectacular location for the nature enthusiast. For me, this was an absolutely fantastic location and I would definitely stay again, if I get another work assignment in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona. I was completely satisfied with the location. However, the bed was way too soft for my taste and meal prep isn't the easiest, and the WiFi is unbelievably slow, but as far as overall comfort for a single person or couple, and with the proximity to a gorgeous desert environment, I rate this as a very appropriate place to stay.
