We had a great stay! The house was very comfortable and worked perfectly for our large group of 17, with plenty of space for everyone. Both kitchens were well equipped and the house was stocked with everything we needed. There was plenty of parking, and the kids especially enjoyed the game room. We would definitely stay again.

House was great! Clean and tidy. We came with a large group, infants, kids, teens and adults- they had everything! We cooked each day, and kitchen had what was needed. Loved having the two kitchens, and grills outside! Made the work go fast. Double hot tub made it so nice to allow everyone in without being cramped. Would definitely recommend and would stay again!

We are happy to hear that the property space allowed for a team bonding experience. Thank you for coming out and hope to be able to host your work team again in the future.
Wonderful setup, king size beds and twins. A big plus are the bathrooms for each sleeping area. For a large group the dining area was perfect. Would stay here again!

Our daughter was married at Forest Highlands about 15 minutes from the house. This property had a great layout to fit our immediate family and provide a place for the bridesmaids to stay. It was a perfect set up with two kitchens and plenty of bathrooms!

We’re so happy to hear that our home worked perfectly for your daughter’s special day! Congratulations to your family on the wedding — what a wonderful celebration. We’re glad the layout, two kitchens, and ample bathrooms made things comfortable and convenient for everyone. Thank you for choosing our home for such a memorable occasion, and we hope to welcome you back for another family gathering in the future!
The home was clean and well equipped. The only downside was the amount of times we all had to go up o & down the stairs

Thank you so much for your kind words about the home being clean and well-equipped! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. The stairs do come with the territory of having so much space spread across multiple levels—it’s part of what allows everyone to have both great gathering areas and plenty of room to spread out as noted in our listing. We really appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back the next time you’re in Flagstaff!
Check-in was simply, communications with staff was simply and they were very responsive. Clean facility and convenient location in Flagstaff

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad to hear that check-in was smooth, communication was helpful, and that you found the property clean that you enjoyed your family reunion. We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope we can welcome your family back again in the future!
We really enjoyed staying at this property with 3 generations of family. The three separate floors gave us a chance to have some separation but also still be together in the same accommodation. The suites were huge and comfortable, and the fact that each had its own large bathroom was a really great bonus !!! Everything was very clean and updated and communication with the host was excellent !As shown in the description, the middle floor has a huge table which was great for our family to gather for meals, and it also has a game room on that level which my grandkids thoroughly enjoyed. There's a kitchen on the top level and the bottom level so there is some climbing up and down stairs to get food to the middle floor where the main dining table is. This was no problem for us at all, but if you have somebody who has difficulty with stairs it could be a challenge. Both of the kitchens were very well stocked and having a washer and dryer on both the bottom floor and top floor was also extremely helpful for our group. We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated our host.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that our home worked so well for your three-generation family gathering and that the layout allowed everyone to enjoy both togetherness and personal space. It’s wonderful to know the suites, private bathrooms, and multiple kitchens made your stay comfortable, and that the grandkids especially enjoyed the game room—that’s always one of our favorite highlights to hear about!
We also appreciate you noting that the washer/dryer setup on multiple floors was helpful. Most of all, thank you for your kind words about the cleanliness and communication—it truly means a lot to us.
We would love to welcome you and your family back anytime. Thank you again for choosing our home and for being such wonderful guests!
Wonderful stay with our large family. Plenty of beds. Kitchens were great to take care of our big meals. The children loved the game room and bunk room. There was a park just a short walk up the hill that we could take kids. Beautiful vacation rental.

We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and that we were able to provide lots of work space for your group. We would be happy to host your group again in the future.
We had a wonderful few days. We had everything that we needed to cook in the barbecue and the kitchen The fire outside was great. The play area was incredible, watching the snow fall from the rooms with fireplaces and large windows.
We had 15 family members for a little mini vacation and thoroughly enjoyed the house. Wow! Minnny fridges in each bathroom! Wow! Air conditioning worked perfectly. Also, both Jacuzzis were excellent.

We are so happy to hear you and your family enjoyed your stay, and enjoyed the use of both our jacuzzis. You were a wonderful guest, and we would be happy to host you and your family again in the future.
Both kitchens had all the amenities required to prepare meals. Home had 3 floors and ample room enough for family of 26 guests (including children age 10-infants) to be together or to spread out. Game room and bunk room were major hits for the kids. Beds were comfortable. Furniture and TVs were good. Views from many windows were spectacular. We were in Flagstaff for a wedding; the homeowners specified that "events" were allowed which gave us an opportunity to host a "rehearsal dinner" get together for the family and a few extra local family members. I would absolutely recommend this home for a large family stay.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled the home provided the perfect setting for your family and rehearsal dinner. It’s wonderful to hear the multiple kitchens, spacious layout, and kid-friendly areas made your stay so comfortable. The views and gathering spaces make it a great spot for special occasions—we’d be honored to host your family again for future celebrations!
We had an amazing stay at this cozy cabin in Flagstaff! The space was clean, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location was perfect, peaceful and surrounded by nature, yet close enough to downtown for dining and shopping. We especially loved the fireplace and outdoor seating area.
