This was the perfect place for our week to stay. The outdoor areas were ideal. We ate breakfast outside poolside, we swam often, we grilled out dinner, and we ended our day under the string lighted couch area.

We loved the property and would stay here again. We used the pool everyday and loved how stocked everything was. The only minor complaint is that my kid's wished the drapes were darker as the morning sun came up earlier than they wanted to get up. The owners were so responsive and helpful.

We really appreciate this kind review, Michael. I love the idea for some room darkening shades in the additional bedrooms, we will look into adding those. Thank you for being such great guests, and please do consider staying with us again in the future. We’d be happy to host you anytime!
The house was great for our family coming to town for a high school graduation! It was very clean, the check-in process was very easy, and Amy was very responsive to our questions. It's also a very quiet neighborhood with nice green belt for walking. We hiked at the San Tan mountain park as well which is about 10 minutes away. We will definitely keep this house in mind for our next trip!

Thank you for this wonderful review, Kris. I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and especially at San Tan Regional, we love it there! We truly appreciated your care with our home. You are the types of guests we would love to have back any time!
This property was awesome. Home had everything you could have needed. Backyard and pool was wonderful. Tried to rent for month in Feb 2024 but was already booked.
I just recently stayed here over the weekend with my wife and some friends and it was amazing. The communication with the owner was great and the property was very clean and had everything needed to cook and bbq. And between the pool outside, pool table, games, and streaming on the tvs there was plenty to do and we were never bored and the bar was a great touch. Also the rooms/bathrooms were very clean and the bed was super comfy! Definitely going to be coming back!

House was as expected and more! Can’t beat the gas heated pool and the great outdoor space. Easy to get too and a short drive from other amenities. Host was accommodating to our situation and promptly returned messages. Personally love the available laundry space when traveling with kids. Will be back!

About the host
Hosted by Kurt and Amy Aldworth
Hi, we are Kurt and Amy Aldworth. We live in the Pacific Northwest, but I (Amy) am originally from California and I find myself always seeking out the sunshine! We love spending time outdoors with our adult kids, some of who live permanently in Arizona now.
Why they chose this property
Arizona is a favorite location of ours. Plenty of sunshine, pools for staying cool, and an abundance of outdoor activities to engage in. Some of our favorite hiking we've done is in and around the Greater Phoenix area, especially in San Tan Valley. We hope you will enjoy a relaxing vacation in our home and find some time to explore the San Tan Mountain Regional Park area.
What makes this property unique
Enjoy full access to all of the Johnson Ranch amenities, including several heated pools/spas; tennis, pickle ball and basketball courts; 18-hole golf course; disc golf course, catch and release lake; and plenty of parks and trails. We are close to great hiking, mountain biking, golfing and lots fun restaurants and night life, including San Tan Flat.
