Looking at reviews for this home, I can't believe we forgot to write one! This is an outstanding home and you'll love every minute there! We stayed for a month last year from March to April and our entire experience was wonderful! The pool is great and the hot tub, heavenly at night! It's just really a comfortable place to stay and the owner is helpful when signing up and has left info to make your stay easier in the home. When you get there, Kevin, the guy who takes care of the house, is readily available and so nice to deal with. The description of the house is spot-on and all photos are accurate in what it is like (the two extra bedrooms are a bit smaller than they look in the photos, but are still plenty big and nicely appointed). The master suite is so nice, loved the huge closet and the bathroom is fabulous! Main living area is so nice and homey with plenty of room for everyone. We left suggestions on what to do and see in the book in the house. If you want to see them, I guess you're just going to have to rent this home :<)! You will not regret it. Just wish it was available for this year...but it was already rented for the time we needed this year when we left :(
Owner response:We would love to have you guys back! You have to book early though as you mentioned as so many people are repeat visitors for us now. Glad you enjoyed it as much as we always do.

Our 16 day stay here was fun, relaxing, and trouble free. This vacation home lacks for nothing. Linens, dishes, appliances and such were very clean, and of excellent quality. Kevin, the concierge for this home, could not have been more amiable and helpful. Fountain Hills has small-town charm with big town amenities very handy. We liked it so much we're in the process of purchasing our own home there! This vacation home gets our highest recommendation!
Owner response:Thanks so much for the kind words. You know your friends and family are always welcome to stay at our place when visiting you at your new home!

Thanks again for the enjoyable stay at your home. Our stay was quite comfortable as the property was well maintained and located in a quite neighborhood. Conveniently located close to excellent golf courses. The assistance provided by Kevin at check-in was very helpful. We hope to stay at your place again in the future.
Owner response:Thanks for the kind words. You are right the golf is second to none in Fountain Hills and our home is conveniently located on the south side of town in a great neighborhood and close to everything. Next time you may want to try some of the fantastic hiking or nearby Lake Saguaro. We would love to have you and your family back any time soon.

We spent 9 relaxing weeks enjoying this property, Fountain Hills and various golf courses. Loved the well stocked kitchen, the wonderful pool area, the hot tub and even the grass! The description of this property is spot on, and we hope to return when our schedule allows. If you are a golfer, Wei Ko Pa is very close by, as is Eagle Mountain and Scottsdale is only about 20 minutes away if you want to try some other courses, or some great restaurants. Thanks Darren!
Owner response:Shelley and Doug, glad you enjoyed it. You are welcome back any time! There is always so much to do in Fountain Hills and Scottsdale . . . hiking, golfing, fishing and boating, cycling, shopping, dining and more . . the best way to enjoy it is to stay for an extended holiday. Even then I am sure you found you just scratched the surface. We look forward to having you back soon.

this was a beautiful and very well equipped home, everything you needed was provided. It is very spacious. The pool, spa and gardens were lovely, plenty of garden furniture to relax. We had a great holiday and definately will go back.. There are so many places to see and do around this area. The Grand Canyon, Tombstone are about a 4 hour drive.
Owner response:Thanks so much. Would love to have you back! Cheers

We spent 7 days over Thanksgiving and our daughter competed in the Ironman race - it was perfect - our 13 month old granddaughter loved the pool. Kevin was great - the kitchen was wonderful. We hope to be back next year - 2010

Thanks Darren for the great stay we had in your home in Fountain Hill, AZ This home is beautiful and very convenient to anything you'd like to do while on vacation. We just Loved the patio and pool area. We spent alot of afternoons and evenings sitting out there. The view of sunsets against the mountains were fantastic. The Master Bedroom is FABULOUS!! Everything was great. We will return soon for another stay. Thanks to Kevin too, he was great.

We spent 7 days of total bliss. This property is top of the line. It is conviently located from the airport, and all of Fountain Hill's main attractions. The home was spotless, the pool refreshing, the hot tub a god send after our long excursions throughout Phoenix. The Beds were exquise, and utterly comfortable. When you visit, you must get up at sunrise and watch... It will take your breath away as Fountain Hills awake. If your are very still and sit in the hot tub, you can even watch humming birds feed in the lush garden. We cannot say enough about this home. We have told our family and friends this is the place to stay! It felt like a five star, with all the comforts of your own home. Cannot wait to go "HOME" again.
