About this property

Great location & value! Large, beautiful home, private pool, tub

We think you'll love our townehome. It is a private home with lots of character located on the end of a quiet residential street in central Tempe. The property is managed by the owner. Please feel free to inquire if you have any questions or need any further information.

The house has over 1800 square feet with a large garage and wide driveway with room for 2 cars. It features your own private fenced in pool (it is not heated) and beautifully landscaped yard that borders the Shalimar 9 hole golf course. (Note that the course will be closing on April 1, 2025). The house is uniquely decorated in southwest decor. You won't find a similar house available for rent. Most of our guests have been returning and reserve their stays well in advance.
We look forward to our returning friends and to sharing our home with new guests.

Enjoy relaxing in the Dimensions I hot tub that is located on the patio outside the master bedroom. The backyard is enclosed for privacy and is landscaped with separate lawns, pepper tree, citrus trees, rose and flowering bushes. It attracts a variety of birds and hummingbirds.

Sit out on the furnished patio and enjoy coffee and listen to the birds in the morning, or grill steaks and sip drinks in the evening while watching the sunset and enjoying the golf course views.

The house features two unique large living rooms that are separated with stone pillars, and is well furnished with rich leather furniture, a down chaise and a 60' Sony smart tv, and blue ray with the Direct TV extra package for watching your favorite game or movie, and also a subscription to Amazon Prime video. The kitchen is well stocked and equipped and the house has high speed internet and panoramic wi-fi.

The master bedroom opens out to the backyard and to the hot tub next to the rose and flower garden. It features a king-size Brooklyn Hybrid Bloom bed and a 40' tv.

The second bedroom features knotty pine built in woodwork with southwest decor, and a queen size murphy bed and large attached bathroom with combination shower and tub, and twin sinks. Both bathrooms feature multiple grab bars in the showers and tubs. The bedrooms are separated by a long hallway which provides privacy from each other. Great for separate couples, a group of guys or gals, or a family.

There is a large patio in the back that has access through the kitchen sliding glass door. We have a private, enclosed pool that is not shared with any other properties, unlike many vacation properties. The pool is not heated and it is typically warm enough to swim between mid April through mid October). The patio and pool deck has lots of chairs and benches, and there is a grill for outdoor cooking.

There is also a washer and dryer and we also have 4 bicycles for your use to enjoy the neighborhood.

The house is a wonderful retreat for enjoying the sunshine and taking it easy, reading a good book, watching tv, or just relaxing on the patio or going for a swim. It is great for entertaining family and friends with the large dining room and patio area and backyard (but no parties or large gatherings permitted).

There are sleeping accomodations for 3-4 with an additional fold away single bed and a self inflated quality queen size mattress that can be put down in one of the large rooms, that are stored in the large main closet. There is also a twin bed box spring, mattress and frame stored in the garage that can be placed in either the rear living room or next to the king bed in the master bedroom. The fold away single bed is best used for children.

There is a table in the kitchen that seats 4 and a separate dining room and table that seats 8, and expands for additional seating, plus a cocktail table and chairs in the second living room. There is table service for 12 with additional silverware and wine glasses, coffee maker, blender, mixer, juicer, crock pot, all kitchen utensils, etc. There are plenty of towels and extra sheets.


Numerous grocery stores, restaurants, banks and churches within 3 miles, and it is within 10 mins. to additional golf courses, the Talking Stick casino and resort, Papago Park, Phoenix Zoo, Botanical gardens, spring training fields, and is also very close to the Tempe Marketplace, Mill Avenue and ASU, and the Tempe town lake. Its close access to H-101, H-202 and H-60 makes it easy to get to anywhere in the valley without having to deal with stop and go traffic. The airport is less than 15 minutes from the house.

It is located in an attractive quiet neighborhood that is great for taking walks and bike rides with little traffic. We enjoy its central location which allows you to get around without spending the day driving, unless you want to.


We have worked hard to make our home a wonderful place for our guests to enjoy. Please understand that it is our home and it is very important to us that you agree to take good care of it and keep it clean. If you are not comfortable or willing to do this, we would ask that you not request to stay here.
We also request that the primary guest/renter be at least 35 years old.
The house is best suited for adults. The pool poses a risk to children, and there are numerous furnishings that can be easily broken such as decorative vases, plates, and other items. Thank you very much for your consideration. We understand that the house is not for everyone and we appreciate your understanding. Please do not hesitate to ask questions if you have any concerns.

Tempe recently adopted an ordinance to regulate short term property rentals. The Tempe ordinance requires that the property owner obtain the name and date of birth of each registered guest. We are required to run background checks from a federal database for each guest rental. I apologize for this inconvenience. Most cities in Arizona have adopted similar requirements.
Please provide the names and dates of birth for the adult guests as part of your reservation request.
I would also request that you provide a brief explanation of the purpose for your visit to our house and description of the persons who will be staying.
Thank you very much in advance for your cooperation.

Wonderful stay
Everything was perfect. From early communication to the last day. House had everything you would want. While pool was cool, that did not stop me from enjoying, plus the hot tubs was an added treat. Very peaceful at night and easy location to get to all spring training baseball sites. Thanks Charley!!

Holiday Stay
We so enjoyed our stay at the property. The house is full of character, charm and love. It felt like a home away from home. The backyard was lovely; the connection with nature was so luscious it was palpable. The owner/manager was very personable, communicative and responded quickly. Also, garage access was granted which provided ease for entry. That was nice, as garage access is not always granted with rentals. It was much appreciated. Location was perfect! Easy access to freeways. Everything about this property and stay was wonderful!

Beautiful home in quiet neighborhood
This is a beautiful home in a quiet, golf course neighborhood. Quiet yet convenient to highway, local shops and restaurants. The place was very open and exactly as pictured. The owners were available for our questions and answered promptly. We had such a nice relaxing time away from the daily work grind! We loved the pool and used it daily. We didn't use the hot tub but that's only because we stayed during the hottest time of the year! We will definitely stay here again!

Excellent place to stay! The property itself is beautiful, inside and out. The character of the house is unmatched. Backyard you have your own little oasis with the pool and hot tub! Owner was fantastic and checked in to see how we were enjoying our stay. Conveniently located. Our only regrets is that we hadn’t found this place sooner!

Awesome Stay
Most everything about this property is amazing. It's comfy and cosy and easy to find. A few things... the bed linens and towels could use some updating - they felt very old and faded. The pillows could be updated too - they were pretty dirty. My son was sad that the pool was dirty - like it hadn't been cleaned in a while and he was sad that he couldn't use the hot tub. In all fairness we didn't try the hot tub - as the letter at the property said to use at our own risk - didn't seem like they wanted it used. There was a lot of outdated and old food in the cabinet and refrigerator and lots of old make-up and old hair products in the master bathroom. Really felt lived in with all of the stuff still there (it's not just stuff people accidentally left). All in all, we love the property and would stay again. Charly was warm and welcoming and this was perfect for our Thanksgiving stay.

Superb Residence and Quality Experience
The home is in an established area in Tempe. Close to everything. It is homey and comfortable. The personal pictures are attractive. The home was very clean. We did not want for any convenience. What is most important to travelers - the bed. The king in the large master was extremely comfortable and included a wide range of pillows. Any question one might have about the residence was addressed by way of personal, yet informative notes either strategically placed close to an item or taped near by. Any issue that came up, regardless of its importance was quickly responded to by the owner who is caring and professional. We had a marvelous stay and are seriously contemplating a return trip next year. Thank you for all that you have and all that you share.

Wonderful place in a great location!
This house was perfect for our family spring break getaway to catch some spring training games. It was close to all of our activities, while being conveniently located in a safe and quiet neighborhood. Our family of 4 had plenty of room to spread out and the house was well stocked with everything we needed. The hot tub was a bonus, as it was still pretty chilly to take advantage of the pool this time of year. The host, Charley was extremely attentive and responsive, and also gave some great recommendations for family-friendly activities. A grapefruit tree was brimming with fruit and they were absolutely delicious! Overall, we had an amazing time and I highly recommend this place for your upcoming stay in Tempe!

The home was even better than we expected. It is very comfortable and is wonderfully decorated with so much interesting art. The WIFI was strong and the access to such a wide range of TV options was great. The outside, including the pool, was beautiful and it was fun watching the golfers tee off.

About the host

Hosted by Charles Campbell

Host profile image
We are Charles and Jeanne Campbell and we live in Nebraska. Charles' mother lived in the home for the last 25 years before moving to Tucson in 2014 and we were able to obtain the house. We come when we can to enjoy the Arizona sunshine, and enjoy the house as our retreat.

Why they chose this property

When Mom decided it was time to give up the house and move to Tucson, we jumped at the chance to take it. We've visited whenever we could over the years to recharge our batteries, soak up the sun and enjoy the valley lifestyle . . . golf, shopping, eating, hiking and sightseeing, etc. and loved the central location that the house provides and great access to the major highways.

What makes this property unique

Great location, plus the beautiful surroundings inside and out. We enjoy just sitting on the patio enjoying the beautiful views, watching the birds and ducks on the golf course, and hummingbirds in the garden, especially when we can leave behind the frigid midwest winter for a few days.
It is a spacious home with character. We hope you find it to be welcoming and friendly. It works well for a vacation retreat, golf trip or spring training games, ASU graduation, etc.
It is best suited for older folks, as there are numerous artifacts around the house, and a pool and hot tub.
