Great property. Accurately described. Everything was as expected, and it was right where the float for the river entrance started! Great place. Will use again if we go to float the river!

We’re so glad you enjoyed that! Being right at the start of the Horseshoe really is something special, there’s nothing better than being able to step outside and jump straight into the river. Thanks so much for staying with us, and we’d love to have you back anytime!

Maricopa Stay

Overall, the house and location is great. This is our second time staying at the Maricopa River Resort. The location is perfect for what we enjoy doing, fishing, paddle boarding and tubing. However, we did have a few issues with the house. When we arrived, we noticed there was leftover trash around parts of the house. Soda bottles under the bed, candy wrappers on the couch, there was a pill on the floor of one of the bedrooms. We do wish that the lighting was different in the house, I feel like having brighter bulbs would help light up inside a lot. The biggest issue was the AC on the last night of our stay. It would not cool down at all, so our last night and morning of was pretty rough. Vacay Hill Country is a great company and I really enjoy using you for our yearly trips.

Maricopa River Resort is perfectly laid out for three couples or a group of friends. Three full bathrooms for each wing and bedroom. The back porch is very tranquil with the Guad right there.

Great location!

Stayed the 1st weekend in September 2019. The house was a great size for a big group and the location was perfect. We could easily walk to several tube rental places. There was an issue with one of the toilets and they came and fixed it right away. Would stay here again.
