Hiding from winter snow

The 1 bedroom house is immaculate and appears to have been professionaly decorated. Simply impeccable stay. It is a few minutes outside of town but certainly worth the trip. My wife and I were very happy to have found this property!

This was the perfect location for us, a quick jaunt into Havasu proper less the stop lights and winding roads. If you're in the area for leisure, this home is also a great base for getting on the trails, Topock, the river, Oatman, etc. The home was clean, adequately cooled, and hosted a pleasant array of extras. If you forget anything these hosts thought of it. We appreciated it was truly a pet friendly home and our hosts were accessible, accommodating, and friendly.

About the host

Hosted by Shannon Oberholtzer

Host profile image
My Husband and I live and work from our beautiful 4 acre property. We moved to LHC in 2019 from the Seattle, Wa area. We love all the Lake Havasu City has to offer all year round. We boat in the Spring & Summer months and go off-roading in our SXS in the Fall and Winter months. We offer our Casita for Guests when our Family and Friends aren't visiting us.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because it was large! We needed room to build a warehouse for our business.

What makes this property unique

This property is secluded, secure and private. Neighbors are not right on top of us. We love that it is in a rural neighborhood in the desert, but close enough to get to town when wanted/needed.
