We enjoyed a lovely week staying in dog-friendly PLX. We felt welcomed and very comfortable. We took advantage of the backyard/patio area for visiting with family and friends. We bumped into the owners in passing with our dogs and were impressed with their hospitality. I highly recommend this rental and plan to return.

Thank you for your very kind review. We enjoyed hosting you. I played Fountain Hills GC, now Desert Canyon, over 30 years ago. I remember it because the temp was over 100. I drank lots of water and never sweat a drop.

We enjoyed our stay and the owner greeted us when we arrived and was friendly. I gave a couple of 4 stars only because of very minor things like my daughter in law being afraid of spiders and saw two tiny ones. It is a beautiful somewhat wooded back yard so it's inevitable to have a couple of spiders inside. And we noticed some of the complimentary items left out, such as tea bags, advil, body care, had expired by many years ago. It's easy to get to, and a relaxing space, just not modern. We appreciated it.

Thanks for your review. Your spider complaint is the 2nd in 10 years. We vacuum after every guest and always look for spiders. We absolutely do NOT use any insecticides on our property or in our home. We are also sorry our home was not up to date and elegant. We strive to provide a comfortable visit and eschew the latest trends which all go out of style within 3-5 years. The furniture is a mix of our parents and our own furniture. We are also reluctant to replace furniture, for example, after the damage done by guests who do not know why there are drink coasters on every piece of furniture. Several of the furniture pieces were quite expensive when purchased. On a final note we were a bit upset when we found the AC temperature set at 69 and the kitchen door left open several times for long periods on hot and very humid days. Also leaving for the day with lights left on in every room we think is very wasteful. Other than those 2 issues your group was great.

We really enjoyed staying here! There are huge windows that look into the back yard and the water. It is very large and we had more than enough room. It’s at the end of a cul-de-sac which made it very nice for people stopping to visit with us. Highly recommend
