Like a Home Away from Home

This was our 4th time staying at this lovely VRBO. We return because it feels like our home away from home. The house is cozy, inviting, and (for people used to the desert) a great place to enjoy the "green" views from both the windows and the decks. Morning neighborhood walks offer waves from friendly neighbors, yappy dog hellos, and a horse or donkey along the way, as well. At night, watching the stars from the hot tub is delightful. Whether you're cooking in the kitchen or working remotely from the home office, this house offers all you might need for an extended stay, with or without pets. Owners Pati and Murray are wonderful and very responsive to any questions and needs. Needless to say, we're heading back next year.

Perfect!

Perfect little getaway spot! My wife and I are traveling nurses and it was nice to have our family visit us out here in Prescott. This Vrbo destination was perfect in so many ways…..the cost, location, the rooms and space. Thank you so much definitely will revisit if available in the future.

Perfect for dogs, horses, outdoorsy people

Fenced so dogs mighty happy which means people mighty happy. Wish I could have brought my horses but dogs and I really enjoyed miles of hiking on State land behind house. Great hot tub, big tvs (3!) Good internet. Kitchenware excellent. Beds comfy. Perfect for us... rural setting.

Excellent dog (and horse) friendly property just outside Prescott

My husband and I stayed here with our 1 year old lab for 5 weeks in fall 2021. Property was just as described and actually better than the photos with a beautiful view of Granite Mountain out the front living room large window. Located close enough to Prescott, but yet the advantage of a rural location. We attended a class at Gunsite Academy in Paulden and it was convenient to travel beautiful off-highway route to Chino Valley. Hot tub on the deck with another wonderful view of Granite Mountain and privacy from neighbors. We were pleased with the communication with the owner to answer any of our questions. After one month the cleaning gal came and gave the house a complete cleaning. Such a treat. We walked our dog every day in the neighborhood and met several very friendly folks. Yes, many properties have dogs that bark when we went by, but that's life in any rural area. If you have horses, this location would be an amazing find!

Heavenly

Our stay at Murray and Pati's place was perfect...everything we expected and more. The house was spotlessly clean and equipped with everything we could possibly need. It was truly our home away from home for the month. The neighborhood is quiet (the few barking neighborhood dogs suited us just fine), spread out, and a refreshing change from the Phoenix area. A glass of wine on the porch each evening while the sun set was heavenly. If you're into hiking, we highly recommend the (easy) Williamson Valley Trail a little bit north up Rte 5 for it's beauty and tranquility. Kayaking Watson Lake is also a wonderful treat! For us...We very much look forward to our return!

Loved our stay

The house is situated in Williamson Valley, a bit off main roads, but close to the cut across roads that bring you into town at various places. We found our way around well, and found a great Christian church close to the house with an amazing pastor who taught us many new ways to look at old teachings. The house is well stocked and comfortable, great air, and hot tub that we didn't expect but used and enjoyed. Porches are nice, spent mornings and evenings out there. It is a very quiet neighborhood, many dogs though. Walking your own dog will wake the dead as everyone has at least two in their yards. Couldn't get uber or lyft out there. Overall, loved the stay and the weather was perfect. Also, the picture window affords beautiful views.

Nice property, great location

Location is many times everything and the property is close to town but also backs to state lands. If you are a hiker/horseback rider, being only 0.7 miles from a national forest trailhead is nice! The house is well appointed and nice - it could use new flooring/carpets since the present ones were badly stained. It could also use work since it feels a bit behind on maintenance (but we know the owners have scheduled some of it when we were there). The horse area is great - 2 paddocks with large stalls and also a round pen, tack room, room for hay storage etc. One word of warning - we came in with a 3-horse 8ft living quarters trailer pulled by a short-bed truck. Getting in and out was nigh impossible! Anything bigger and your are stuck.

Perfect spot for us

We enjoyed our stay on Bridle Path for several reasons. The house was spacious and the area was close enough to Prescott that we could easily do many things in the area. Our dog was very happy being with us and able to wander around the yard (under supervision, of course), although the neighbor dogs were not very welcoming towards her. The hot tub was a bonus on the cool nights after hiking on trails around Prescott. The house had all the comforts of home with a good variety of cookware, serving dishes, glassware, etc.. Perhaps, since the cell service for AT&T is so "dismal" (Murray's words), a booster would be an improvement for guests. There was an issue while one of us needed to be gone overnight and since there was no cell service, it was a bit of a worry in case something happened and there was no phone or car for the person left back at Bridle Path. We would return to this vacation home again if our circumstances ever allow!

Perfect retreat

We were lucky enough to book this rental for Memorial Day rather late and loved it. We brought our dog and she had lots of fun roaming the entirely fenced lot. Hiking out the back gate was super convenient too. Everything you need is provided. Thanks Murray!

Awesome weekend

My family and I stayed in this lovely home over a long weekend and just loved it. Very comfortable and peaceful place. It was also nice to be able to take our two dogs so that they could play and see some grass again. One of our dogs has pouted since we got home. We hope to stay here in the future! The McDonalds

This place is great. The hot tub was incredible, the grounds are huge and enclosed so your kids can run around, and the Wi-Fi and cable TV in several of the rooms is awesome. They were very easy to communicate with, and everything went smoothly. I would recommend this cabin to anybody.

Wonderful Weekend Escape

We stayed at this property two weeks ago and we couldn't be happier. The house is on a beautiful lot in Prescott right on the foothills of Granite Mountain. We stayed three nights with our dog and young (1.5 year old son) and were able to live live locals in Prescott. Hiking trails are literally right behind you for miles of hiking/walking/running out the back gate. Downtown Prescott is 10 minutes away, the Heritage Park Zoological Sanctuary and Embry Riddle is 7 minutes away. Chino Valley is but a few miles north of the property as well. The house was in great shape and very homey, kitchen, was clean and well-stocked with all the utensils and provisions you need for your stay. Murray was most helpful in exchanging keys and was wonderful to communicate with via email and phone. We will be back for sure.

About the host

Hosted by Murray Stein

Hi, my name is Oscar Stein and this is my house. There would normally be a photo of me here, but VRBO thinks that's a bit silly. You see, I'm a dog.

My parents love this home and its wonderful for pups like myself. Lots of room for horses as well!

Why they chose this property

Prescott is a truly wonderful place to visit.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, quiet, and exceptionally dark skies. Miles of trails and fantastic views. 10 minutes from downtown Prescott and easy access (~90 min) to Sedona and Flagstaff. Local attractions include hiking and rock climbing, nature walks, lakes, Indian ruins, and historic downtown.
