My sisters and I grew up in Boulder City and rented this house while attending a high school reunion. We enjoyed the house, and it is better than the photos! There was plenty of room for the 3 of us, and could walk to all the events. The area is 'old' BC full of charm and is quiet. My sisters really liked drinking coffee outside under the misters in the morning.

We all really enjoyed our stay at your house. Everyone commented on how clean and comfortable it was! It was especially nice after a 9 hour drive from California, to only have a 4 minute drive to the mountain bike trails and a short walk into town! I'm hoping to make this a yearly trip! Thanks again for everything! Ayshe Tuncer

This was a great place to stay! Highly recommend it! It was so much better than we expected and very family/kid friendly! Clean, spacious, lots of everything (towels, bedding, games, etc)! Lots of space, great kitchen, great backyard, and nice neighborhood in walking distance to old town with some yummy restaurants! We came here to spend time on Lake Mead and the house is so close to the Lake and we had a wonderful time! Easy to work with owner overall TWO BIG THUMBS UP!

The home was perfect for our party of 8 and included ALL the amenities you could possibly want - the kitchen had all the needed appliances and tools for cooking, bathrooms stocked with lots of towels, and very nice entertainment options. The home is in a harming neighborhood and very close to all the little historical town has to offer. But by far the best feature was the backyard, which was beautifully landscaped, lush and the misters made the late afternoon/evening pleasant even in the hotter desert temperatures.

Owner response:typo error "The home is in a harming neighborhood". Supposed to be "The home is in a charming neighborhood"

What a wonderful home and fantastic VRBO rental! I could not have asked for a better cared for home and any more amenities. From the beds to the backyard...we felt comfortable and at home. I would definitely rent from Destry again, and will! Thank you very much for a wonderful stay. Best regards, Meg SF Bay Area, California

My family stayed in this home for three months, and it worked beautifully. We could walk everywhere (restaurants, grocery store, park, and my son's school and his gymnastics class). We loved the backyard, and I loved having such a big kitchen. We even played scrabble. This was a nice big, comfortable home. We'd definately recommend it!

The house worked out perfectly for our group. We brought a girls high school cross country team to stay at the house for the Nevada State XC Championships. There was a bed for each team runner and even for the coaches. Having a kitchen was great and we used it to cook a group dinner and breakfasts for all. A special bonus is the house is located one block from the main street in the historic part of Boulder City and it is an easy 3 minute stroll to some fine restaurants and shops. Also, being only one block off the main street you'd think the house would get road noise, but none at all; the street is very quiet at night and the neighborhood is well kept. The big living room gave the team a nice comfy meeting place for all to stretch and talk race strategy.

What a charming home! It was more then we even imagined. We thoroughly enjoyed our one week stay. A beautiful home with all the amenities. The owner was a pleasure to deal with and always responded kindly and promptly. After a long day of playing hard, the kids enjoyed lounging on the couch watching the large LCD TV, while the adults loved sitting outside on the lovely patio and landscaped yard, enjoying the quiet of the night. The neighborhood was quiet and Lake Mead was just a around the corner. (3-5 minute drive) An everyday affair for this water loving family! No hidden surprises renting this home. We rented a lovely home from wonderful people. I have nothing but positive to say for the entire renting process and experience we had. I would do it again and highly recommend this home.

Great place to stay and relax. This is a beautiful home, clean and pleasant. It is convenient to everything for day trips, and returning in the evening to grill out or walk downtown for pizza and more. Destry was very easy to work with setting this up and paints a very truthful picture of the house and area. We highly recommend this house, as do our four children, they were never bored. Feel free to e-mail us for more endorsement if needed. Ed, DeeDee, and family

We rent the house for a full month and we really loved it! It has everything you need for either a short stay or a very long one! The yard was a real treat. The town itself is very nice and just a short walk away. Neighborhood is very quiet and pretty. We highly recommend the house. You won't be disappointed.

Thanks for letting us stay in your place, we all loved your place, very clean and spacious, the backyard is very clean and big, definitely would recommend to my friends and relatives, also very convenient to Lake Mead. Very nice to come home after a day on the lake to a very big comfortable home. Also parking our boat was easy, wished we had stayed longer but we all had a great time, Thank you once again, Ken and family.

We had a great time at your vacation rental. The house was one of a kind and is beautifully decorated! The location was excellent, just a five minute drive from Lake Mead, where we launched our boat at Hemingway Harbor. It was also just a short walk to down town. Thanks Again!!!

First time renting a house in Boulder City. What a great house. Enough room for two boating families visiting the lake. Close to shopping, restaurants and launch ramp. Forget the hotel and stay here. We will be back for sure.

We will definitely be back! We would recommend this beautiful house to everyone. It was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed. We relaxed out in the big backyard, barbequed, and enjoyed the horseshoe pit. That was alot of fun. Boulder City is such a charming town, we walked to the restaurants and the food was great. We will be coming back to stay here!!! Lake Mead is so close that made it so nice as well. Thanks to Sheila for all the great serice, she is fantastic.

This is a wonderful, spacious, open house that is washed with light. Everything is very clean and well-maintained. The concierge is very competent and responsive. We walked to breakfast, lunch and dinner when we didn’t cook in the kitchen or on the BBQ. We will be back!

We had such a wonderful time here, the house is beautiful and we loved the location. We enjoyed walking down to breakfast & dinner in Old Town and that was great!!! Our kids had a blast playing horseshoes in the big back yard. The drive to Lake Mead was only 5 minutes from the house, and it was nice to be able to have our boat at the house to unload etc. Sheila was extremely helpful with everything and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. We will definitely recommend your place and be back to stay again. Thank You, Mary Arche
