The hosts were awesome. Went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. Even gave me driving directions with pictures. The house and property were gorgeous. Hope I’ll be able to stay there again
We had everything we needed and a whole lot more. It really felt like home. The host was extremely helpful when needing extra supplies. They were very helpful in getting there in the first place because it was a little bit complicated, but nevertheless, we had the most beautiful time and the most beautiful view.

Thank you Irma it was a pleasure hosting you! We are glad you guys had a good time :)
This place is amazing and worked so well for our family. The views are incredible and the house is well laid out and takes advantage of the beautiful surroundings. It is also thoughtfully appointed and we had everything we needed. Angie provided excellent directions to the property, which is secluded, but we were able to get there easily in an large transit van. Several members in our group said it was the best VRBO they've stayed at and the kids didn't want to leave! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

If you want peace and quiet, this is a good spot. Nice views and lake access. Pool is great and the house is welcoming. The hosts were very helpful. Everything we needed was available.
A bit of a drive from shops or attractions, not a big deal but something to keep in mind.
We would stay again.

This was an amazing adventure. The property manager was awesome. She drove down in the rain to help my driver get us up the mountain to the house and drove him back down. The view is breathtaking and a great place to unwind and relax.

A Perfect Retreat with Unparalleled Lake Views: An Enchanting Getaway
I had the most incredible stay at this house, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a remarkable getaway. The house's beauty and elegance were unmatched, and the outstanding view of the lake and SD city was simply breathtaking. Every aspect of the property was carefully designed for luxurious comfort, creating a tranquil and inviting atmosphere. The outdoor spaces, including the expansive patio and well-manicured garden, added to the enchantment of this ideal retreat.
This property was so worth the drive from Arizona. We wanted to take a little vacation before winter fully came , and this place was it!! We loved it. The property was very clean and neat. The host were very responsive whenever we had questions. we will most definitely reserve this property again!! I recommend anyone thats looking for a beautiful view and quietness this is the place!!!
