We enjoyed our stay! This is a nice home and was in a great location for us to be close to family and close to the activities we were doing! We would highly recommend this home. We will stay again in this home when we get the opportunity to head to AZ again!
We really enjoyed our stay. The property manager was communicative, the home was spotless, the kitchen and home was very well equipped and maintained, the location was convenient for us (near our family), the neighborhood was safe and good for walking. We couldn’t be more pleased.
We stayed at this home while my daughter played at a volleyball tournament nearby. Everyday coming home to the wonderful backyard was amazing. We could float in the pool and relax from our day! This home has plenary of space for everyone to have their own area. And the kitchen was large enough for all of us to enjoy all our meals together. Communication with the homeowner was easy and they were very responsive. We will definitely be staying here again.
We along with a set of friends stayed here for 7 weeks. The house felt like home. It was very clean with comfortable furniture for relaxing and beds for sleeping. Kitchen was stocked with plenty of nice dishes, silverware, glasses, and plenty of pots and pans for cooking. Home looks just like the pictures. Would definitely stay again. Carol
Very Clean - can't say enough about the condition of the home. All the furnishings were clean and well kept. Owner was easy to communicate with.
Quiet neighborhood made for restful evenings.
Enough Bedrooms (4) and a 2nd bathroom made for more than enough space for our guests.
Located 1/2 hour from Mesa, where we spent a lot of our time. 20 minutes from San Tan Regional Mountain Park for hiking.
When we weren't on the go we spent considerable time poolside reading and watching humming birds (added bonus)
Thank you so much for providing a great home for your guests! This was a perfect location for our family, private enough to be out of the hustle & bustle - but close enough to shopping & stores. Everything was clean & orderly! This was my first VRBO, I was unsure what to expect - but checkin and getting into the property was a breeze! I wish we would've had more time to spend IN the home <3
Home was well equipped with anything you may need in the kitchen and plenty of sleeping space. The pool was just the right size with a large step area for little ones to feel safe and the waterfall was soothing to hear. I had great communication with the homeowner; she was very responsive and I recommend this property.
Overall, the value was good on this property. The owner was quick to respond to any communications. The house needs a little TLC with things such a few of the blinds, the disintegrating pool cover and BBQ cover. The neighborhood is relatively nice for this price range, but a bit noise. The early morning cement plant is a little bothersome, but tolerable. All that said, we truly enjoyed the warm winter weather and the heated pool. Make sure you pay for the pool heat, it was great. When an issue arose, the owner was quick to communicate.
This was a great home for our entire family. We had the space that we needed and were able to enjoy the lovely backyard. I would recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a quiet and safe neighborhood. Thank you!!
This was exactly what we needed for an amazing stay in AZ! It was the perfect launching point for adventure, and a great place to come back and relax, after a day in the sun!

PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING: Terrible Experience with Host but a Good House… Not worth the Hassle
Having rented before, I expecting the standard: conversation with host prior to the stay, check in directions, etc. No such thing happened.. There was no conversation prior and the only information made available was located on the VRBO app (WIFI login, Lock Box, code, and brief Check-Out Instructions). There were no directions, signs, etc. in the home whatsoever.
Overall our stay at the home was pleasant. The pool was nice and their neighbor who services the pool came over to clean it and offered to turn the heater up for the rest of our stay.
Upon leaving we followed the check-out instructions. We removed all bedding and towels, emptied all trash into the outdoor cans (unable to pull to the curb due to padlock on gate), ran the dishwasher.
However later the owner (lives out of state) called and accused us of leaving her home in the worst condition ever and of stealing towels. Neither of those statements were true and she threatened to take our deposit. She then accused us of going through her personal things in her garage, which was false. We moved a fold up table from the garage to the yard but realized it was a low table and did not use it. At no time were we ever instructed to not enter the garage or move anything out of it (Perhaps a sign on the door would work if you don’t want it opened?). She also said we were out partying in the yard till 4 am which is false. Our concerts got out late but we did not spend time in the yard after returning to the property. We never heard from a single neighbor during our stay besides the pool man.
After trying to make contact a few times to try to talk through what appeared to be a large misunderstanding, I received a voicemail from her telling me all of the towels were accounted for and that the cleaning was no more than normal. I apologized for moving the table even though it was unclear that the item was off limits.
The owner never apologized for these false accusations and proceeded to accuse us of exceeding the guest limit. For the first 3 nights of our stay we had 4 total guests. The final 2 days we had the final couple show up bringing out total to 6 guests (house sleeps 8). I originally
reserved the house for 5 but we had one more join us for our annual trip. At this point it seems as if the owner was looking something to complain about.
Our group was made up of 2 first responders, 2 teachers, a camp counselor, and mom. We don’t trash homes. We will never rent from this host again.

Beautiful home in a great location
We spent nearly 5 weeks in this home. It is spacious, spotless, and has everything needed to make it a wonderful home away from home. The backyard is spacious, inviting and a very nice place to relax. The home is located close to everything we needed in the east valley. Thank you Andrea for sharing your home!!
