Amazing Time in this Beautiful Home
This house is exactly what we were expecting and more. We had a large group and we had plenty of space for everyone. The location is gorgeous and quiet with plenty of things to do. We will definitely stay again.

Amazing
As good or even better than the description and pictures of the castle. We had a fabulous time and it will be memories that my family and friends will fondly look back upon for years to come. The only disappointment was we had to leave. Will be on our list of favorite places to stay and we certainly will be back.

Absolute homerun
With a home name like "The Castle" The bar is pretty high, both from the perspective of grandiosity but also from the perspective of comfort of all the guests and I have to say the house delivered in spades on all fronts. Comfortably slept. 20 people, was an absolute joy and bonding time that will never forget and we can't wait to come back. One of the easiest recommendations I could make in Flagstaff

While the home was lovely and large and memorable, we were told that our punch list of issues with the house and a complete renovation were going to be commencing immediately after our stay. The property manager was understanding and compensated us fairly.

Love the house!
Love this house! The reason why I'm giving it 4 stars though was because the heat wasn't working that well in the house, it was extremely cold. And one bedroom downstairs has plumbing issues- the shower didn't drain right and the toilet barely flushed. Other than that it was a lovely vacation home.

Superb vacation location
Very satisfied with this VRBO. the Smart House features weren't too difficult to figure out. High end cookware and features throughout home. The grounds were a dream and afforded a lot of snow play areas. Being able to park every vehicle in our party inside the massive garage was a blessing. Also, they snow plowed for us to be able to exit the property safely. We will visit again.... very satisfied with this 'castle'....and a totally accurate description. we even brought our king crowns and queen crowns...made for some fun photo props!

Smart House Makes Dumb Decisions
Not for the technically challenged. For a smart house, it was a revelation. It couldn’t make up its mind on lighting or cooling. Hallways and bathrooms had motion-sensing lighting, kitchen needs that option. For space and location it was great. It is a house that could be wonderful after it transitions.

Great Getaway!
I had been trying to find a quiet and relaxing place for a long weekend getaway and this property did not disappoint! It's close to town but serene and quiet! The house itself is fantastic; it's just as beautiful in person as it is in the pictures! It was clean and inviting with fresh flowers in several of the rooms. The kitchen is spacious and well stocked with appliances, cookware, utensils etc. The various functionalities of the house (smart lighting system, gas fireplaces, speaker system etc.) were explained in detail in the check-in email. Communication with the host was great. We had no problems during our stay but there was an issue with the freezer prior to our arrival that the host notified me about and remedied prior to our arrival. We loved staying in such a remarkable property and can't wait to go back!

Christmas 2023 at The Castle
The house was perfect for all 12 of us. There is plenty of space to have some privacy if you wanted to be away from the group. The kitchen was awesome and there were plenty of pots, pans, cutting boards, and anything else. We travel with a large container of things that we typically see missing or does not work well in VRBO rental. We did not need to open that container at this house, this was a first for us!! We loved the music that was able to be played through the house. There are plenty of TV's for everyone. Dining room table sat all of us with no issue. The laundry room was fantastic. This is always great when staying for extended period of time. There were plenty of towels and hand towels. The rooms were plenty big for all. The Elk herd came out a few times essentially in the backyard. We had a wonderful Christmas and New Year at the house. We loved it and would stay again. Oh and the garage was spacious for all the vehicles. Great house with very nice memories!

Castle - Was More like a Hassle
Beautiful on the outside but has so much deferred maintenance and things that didn't work. This place has no window coverings on the bedroom windows. If you like your privacy, this may not be for you. This was our worst experience ever at a VBRO property. Everyone in our group was either impacted by the lights that stayed on all night outside during the night with no window blinds or broken items or the high tech light system. There were lights that didn't go on and lights that didn't go off. Good luck trying to get a good nights rest here in its current condition. Too many problems to list. We were compensated for the poor experience, however it is unfortunate the property owner didn't do the repairs to make this place acceptable. It is also under construction in one part of the space.

Graduation gathering
This property was unbelievable! From the moment we pulled in the driveway we were in awe! The garage was a great spot for our family to shoot hoops, run around/play ball with the little ones and burn off that energy in fresh air! The kitchen was amazing - massive variety of pots, pans, kitchen essentials, small appliances etc. We found the extra coffe cups under the left side of the stove, so a general diagram with what's in each area/ drawer might help to view beforehand so you know what to bring. We brought our own coffee and filters - Everything was great- the oven cooked pot pies perfectly. The microwaves came in handy for hot chocolate and popcorn ;). *The only item we didn't find was skewers for S'mores at the phenomenal fire pit so we improvised and it was an awesome adventure!!! The hot tub was a great hit as was the upstairs master shower- jets galore and great water pressure. One thing to figure out is which lights are automatic and where the switches are for the rest. Best to do when you arrive in daylight and remember where they are at 10pm to turn back on. (all noted in the arrival directions). The upstairs is handicap accessible(my mom can't do stairs with her cane) if you come in through the garage to kitchen. The master bed however was too high for her to get in so a lower mattress would help in that room if they want to be accessible on the first level. Slept our group of 14. A HUGE beverage fridge plus oversize fridge/freezer - best fresh air! 1000/10!!

Spacious Home for Time with Our Family
The space itself was wonderful! I have a big family and needed to accommodate a lot of people. The house worked well for our group of 15. We enjoyed everything, indoors and out. Nice to have choices of various things to do and places to hang out: relax in the jacuzzi, play wiffle ball in the back yard, make S'mores around the fire pit, cook on patio or in the great kitchen, play pool in the family room, rest in a room with a fabulous view, or lounge in one of several living areas. The house is in an upscale community but feels like a private setting surrounded by the beauty of pine trees. When we arrived, there were roses in the kitchen and in each bedroom as well. My reasons for giving only four stars: housekeeping and amenities. The floors were swept but not thoroughly mopped. Also, the towels should be better quality and more in quantity--not just one bath towel per person when you're staying for four days. It's especially important to replace hand towels daily when they are used by many. There's ample space for storing additional towels and linens but we couldn't find any extras, so we washed and reused. One bed had no sheets at all--unacceptable. Only one dish towel in the kitchen, too, and very little hand soap in bathrooms or kitchen. I would stay again after communicating with the owner to make sure housekeeping was improved. After all, the cleaning fee is hefty.

Stunning home and views with lots of room for the 10 family members staying to attend our daughter’s wedding in Flagstaff.

House was just as advertised. Lots of room to hang out. The A/C went out briefly and the owner had someone out to fix it promptly (easy fix - breaker tripped but it was in a locked area so we couldn’t reset it ourselves). Enjoyed the hot tub and the scenic surroundings. Highly recommend.
