My family and I had the pleasure of staying at this property with family from out of state. We love to travel with family and friends, so renting a house usually makes the most sense for us. We've rented in multiple cities and states. I can tell you, this is the absolute best home we've rented.
Location: The beautiful scenery is exactly what we were looking for...trees and the epitome of the mountain living experience. Even though it looks and feels like you are away from the bustle of town, you are only minutes from Target, restaurants and other conveniences. There are also amazing national parks within 15-60 minutes (the Grand Canyon is only an hour away). In the winter, Snow Bowl is within 15-20 minutes for skiing, etc.
Cleanliness: I have a tendency to be a bit of a germaphobe and clean conscious. This home was the cleanest and most well kept home we've stayed in. There were even towels folded in fancy shapes and roses folded in the toilet paper :).
Decor and amenities: The owners spared no expense. They thought of everything in terms if comfort, convenience and aesthetic. Inside of the home is gorgeous and well stocked. There is a welcome basket with goodies and the kitchen is well suited for cooking, if that is your plan (if not there are plenty of restaurants nearby). We did both and had no issues at all. Cookware and even storage containers for leftovers are supplied. I have never rented a home that is so well stocked. The beds are beyond comfortable. I slept better here than on my own mattress. Bedrooms are located on both floors, which accommodates people who might not be able to navigate stairs. The game loft was amazing! The kids spent hours up there playing and laughing. The backyard is beautiful with trees all around and a cozy gas fire pit, which is where we relaxed at the end of our adventures. It's important to know that this area of Flagstaff has a limit on light illuminating the outdoors. It has to remain fairly dark because this is a stargazing area and there can't be light pollution. Bring your telescope!
We visit Flagstaff often and I'm so glad we found this gem! This will be our new go-to rental...we'll definitely return!
