We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. The kitchen was well stocked, with everything we needed, including a spice rack and a five-star coffee bar with options for drip coffee or French press. We enjoyed the game room with tons of options for family fun. The hosts even included a first aid kit, which we needed after one of us took a tumble at Hole in the Rock. We’re grateful for a truly great stay. Perfect location too!

The stay was a great way to spend our time in Phoenix along with our family. Loved the huge kitchen area and entertainment area including the game room. Robby and Tracy were very promptly communicating though out our stay. The bedrooms were quite small and the the bathrooms weren't very neat and there was no exhaust in the master bathroom. Outdoor pool and fire pit was super nice but unfortunately couldn't use it. Definitely recommend this stay to any family with kids.

Super cute house in great location with plenty of amenities close by. Plenty of room and super nice host. We didn’t pay attention to staying where there was a non heated pool which was way to cold to use but other than that no concerns.
