Great place to stay!

We came for a baseball tournament at Peoria Spring training complex with kids (age 11-14) and the in-laws. This house was perfect. Many extra touches such as fresh cookies, breakfast foods and other items to get our vacation started. House was very clean just as pictures show. Stayed in November so got the pool heated which was great! Wonderful stay, will stay again!

Great property in a great location!

This property is exactly as described. The proximity to the 101/17 makes it easy to get anywhere in the Phoenix area quickly. The check-in process was smooth and we found everything we needed when we arrived. The only thing we would have changed was the weather. The high temps were in the low 50s and the lows were just above freezing the week we stayed so it wasn't very good weather for using the pool. We inquired about the pool heater and the owner was very responsive.

Great location, Very Clean

My family was in town for graduation ceremonies, this location was perfect, close to both ASU Tempe and West campuses. The house was very clean, comfortable, and the owners put thoughtful touches for travelers everywhere. The beds were comfortable with nice bedding, bathrooms were extremely clean with small bottles of shampoo, lotion, etc. Kitchen had everything we needed from condiments, coffee, creamer, spices, all we had to do was bring the main ingredients and we had a meal! There is two comfortable areas to relax and watch some TV with family. The pool was delightful with perfect temperatures inside and out of the pool. Sunscreen and pool floats was provided by the owners with large, absorbing beach towels. There was plenty seating poolside for lounging. The neighborhood was quiet with a walking trail right behind the property. We enjoyed our stay in this home and would definitely rent again when we come back to the area.

Clean and comfortable

This property is on a quiet street but close enough to everything. The place is well stocked with kitchen/dining equipment as well as extra linens, towels and even beach towels. The Keurig was also a nice touch. They also had toiletries and a hair dryer. The pool was really nice because there's nothing behind it but a nice view of the hills. There's also a BBQ grill by the pool. The air conditioning worked excellent! My biggest fear is staying at a home in Arizona in the middle of summer with weak A/C. There were a lot of ceiling fans also. Checking in was pretty straight forward. Didn't have to contact anyone while I was there as there were no issues. Beds were comfy with good quality linens and pillows. I can tell most of the items were brand new. Place was very clean. Great overall stay and would definitely come back when I'm in the Phoenix area.

Glendale, Az. house

Enjoyed our stay in this property, however, it is in a very crowded neighborhood right next to a very busy and noisy road. We loved the pool with the waterfall, but there is a lot of noise from the road. Not a real big deal, however, especially when the waterfall is running and drowning it out. The house was very clean which is always the most important thing to me. We were very comfortable there but the house could use some updating and more comfortable furniture. Only furniture in the family room that is open to the kitchen was a couch. A couple of extra chairs are really needed, and there is room for them! It is conveniently located close to the 101 Freeway which was nice. There is a bike trail that starts right across the busy road by the house that we walked and rode our bikes on several times. We loved that. The house was stocked with many, many items and all the kitchen utensils you could possibly need. Extra things like a full rack of many different keurig k-cups,, candy, chocolate, ketchup, mayo, jam, pancake mix and syrup, olive oil, a full spice rack and even more ..... Really appreciated that! All in all, it was a good place to stay.

You will not be disappointed!

This is a great property! My husband and I have rented several houses throughout the years mainly on the Gulf Coast-this is our first time to the Phoenix area. With those years has been some houses in which the expectations were met based on picture and some that were not even close to what was expected. This property exceeds expectations. It is in a pretty quiet residential area with a nice view of a mountain right out your back door, we also saw a lot of hot air balloons during our stay. The house is clean, well taken care of and organized. This house is also equipped with a lot of amenities including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion and bar soap in every bathroom. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need and then some. The property owner has a nice welcoming gift to get you settled in when you arrive. I would recommend coming to the house first and then going shopping for anything you may need. This home would not only be great for couples, but if you are traveling with more than two people it is great because there are essentially two living rooms with large flat screen tv's so you can have some space from your travel companions. It looks like this property books out during season really fast and I can tell why, the hosts communication before and during our stay has been exemplary. If you like breakfast we found Chompies to be our favorite spot, Total Wine is a block away from it! We use Grub Hub a lot to order food and there is PLENTY of restaurants to choose from. We also went to the Diamond Desert Casino, it is in the process of expansion now and looks to be opening in February 2020, while they are expanding there are still plenty of machines on the floor.

THE only problem we had at check in was that we weren't sent the lockbox code. I WAS sent the door code, just not the lockbox code to get into the lockbox. We called the telephone number and this wonderful lady helped us, and I am so sorry we did not get her name! She was wonderfully helpful! The only other issue we had was that the master bedroom shower had hardly any water pressure. Our stay was wonderful otherwise! Really appreciated the coffee makers that were in the kitchen, and the kitchen, other than the sink which is chipped, was good! We will use your company again.

Location and roominess

Location is good about 3 blocks off 101 access. Nice sized bedrooms and lots of living space. Good beds and bathrooms. Laundry machines were great. Pool is very nice but was not clean and ready for our use until third day. Ice maker does not work, so two ice cube trays are the alternative. Kitchen is not as updated as the rest it seemed but usable. Online help is a chatbot that allegedly contacts local team. Calls get a person but not a local person.

Wow! Super clean, comfortable, and roomy with lots of extras make this a favorite for us!

I simply cannot say enough good about this property. We stayed for 6 nights and it was like having a Phoenix home. Convenient to the major arteries on the north side of town, this gem met our every need and then some. Immaculately cleaned, stocked with everything we could possibly want, and furnished for comfort and relaxation, Though the weather was a bit cold for the pool, I got in anyway and was refreshed. The pool room has all kinds of floats and toys and BIG pool towels! The wifi is extremely fast, every bedroom has cable TV (as well as the living room and den) with streaming services available, and there is plenty of room to spread out in this spacious house. The manager has provided lots of towels, extra blankets, utensils, and over-the-counter items you might have in your medicine cabinet. The washer, dryer, and dishwasher all work well and were very helpful. Necessary detergents were helpfully provided. The ice maker in the refrigerator is not operational, but a fresh bag of ice was waiting for us in the freezer to make up for it. The keyless entry pad was programmed for us with a number that was already familiar to us, showing the level of thoughtful care that went into making our stay wrinkle free and easy. This was one of the best experiences we have ever had renting a home. I cannot imagine that we would stay anywhere else in the Phoenix area when we return.
