A Great Summer Experience
Guest: Wayne and Nancy
(Oro Valley, AZ)
Date of Stay: 05/31/08
Review Submitted: 07/09/08
We spent the entire month of June 08 in this lovely home. There were 4 adults and enough space including private baths for all of us. Two grandsons were very happy with the large "bunk room" and having 2 masters on the first floor was perfect for some older adults who visited for several nights. Both the owner and the property manager were very responsive to what few problems we encountered and the weekly house keeper did an excellent job. It was a bit chilly the first couple of weeks, but the last two weeks of June were absolutely wonderful - and there is plenty of deck to enjoy the wonderful evenings, bar-b-q and the fox that visits almost every night. All in all we would highly recommend this home for a wonderful summer get away.
Owner response:We appreciate your endorsement. It helps reinforce that we are on the right tract and the home meets all your needs and expectations.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.
Great Summer Get-away Spot

Review Submitted: 08/25/10
Our group of 9 adult friends, all experienced travelers, had a great stay at this home. The living spaces accommodated us well, with plenty of room to gather together or be off doing something in smaller groups. The deck and spa overlooking the golf course was the perfect antidote for any of the days’ activities. The location is very convenient with Ketchum restaurants and Sun Valley Resort 5 minutes in either direction. Lots of activities are available and accessible. Most importantly, the owners are helpful and responsive. Everything you need is already there. We were very comfortable and would recommend this home to others.
Owner response:Thank you Leslie. It was a pleasure working with you. We receive great satisfaction in knowing that our place served your needs so well. Please come back any time. Tom and Anne-Carol

Our extended family group has rented houses for ski trips for the last 12 years and this home was by far the best! We really appreciated the fact that it seemed as if the owners had just walked out and handed us the keys. The kitchen had all the pots,pans,enough dishes, and everything you have at home, to prepare gourmet meals. The 5 bedrooms worked well for our group, but we were even more impressed with the living space. The dining room table seats 8 easily and there is additional seating at the breakfast bar. The living room has enough seating for 10 to 12 people and the appointments are quite lovely. We are very glad to have found this house and would highly recommend it to everyone! Oh, and the heard of elk right outside was the icing on the cake!
Owner response:We appreciate you taking the time to write this very thoughtful and reaffirming review. Glad you enjoyed your stay! Tom & Anne
