I have stayed in a lot of VRBOs and this by far takes the cake, Tamara has everything down to a science and anything that you could possibly need in this home, the beds are the most comfortable I've ever slept in.

We had a GREAT time. The house is very comfortable. Drinking coffee or whatever on the porch and watching rabbits, birds, deer, and sunsets was relaxing. Lots of room under the carport for the motorcycle. Proximity to great motorcycle riding is wonderful. Would definitely do it again.

Great Property that is close to everything!

Great Property! We would stay there again in a heartbeat. The property has many amenities and lots of room! It's a wonderful place to stay while visiting the Black Canyon & other sites around. The owner/operator also stated that they had addressed some of the issues with the large security deposit issue that we faced.

The house is located in a secluded quiet area which we really liked. It had everything we needed for our week long stay. The bedrooms and bathrooms were great (there was also a lot of extra towels which was nice!). The house had a great flow to it with nice comfortable living room furniture. Kitchen chairs and table were comfortable as well (we played a lot of games in the evening at the table). The front porch was really nice, but unfortunately for us it was really hot the week we were there, so we didn't get to enjoy it as much as we would have liked. We had a few issues when we got there, but Tamara was great, and worked hard to solve the problems in a timely manner. We would definitely stay here again as the home and host were excellent.

The Power Ranch was a perfect month long stay for us while we closed on our new home

Charmingly decorated, fully stocked kitchen for all our hoke cooking, a cool and strange slice of Montrose with epic views of the Adobe mountains - all in all a wonderful experience, though the satellite internet lagged at times and I think the owner is addressing.
