Lovely place to stay outside Cave Creek. Clean and comfortable. Air conditioning struggled to keep up but that was due to a surprising heat wave. Would stay here again
Such an adorable little place, super quiet, and has everything one absolutely needs in one cute little space. Loved the location as it relates to some really great trails up in Cave Creek. Super comfy bed, shower has awesome water pressure, and they left the most adorable little gift of treats.
Check in was wonderful and a perfect place to call home away from home. Sandy was excellent and so friendly. I loved staying here. The horses were so nice to go see every morning. The location of this home was perfect for your morning coffee to watch the sunrise. I would defiantly stay here again.

Great location for a base camp, to explore the Cave Creek area, with comfy bed and couch plus a full bath. Surrounded by ranch properties and natural landscape it’s a nice place to relax after your hike or ride.
The casita was perfect for us. We really appreciated how welcome we felt. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The peace and quiet of the countryside was so relaxing after long days of work at the shooting match at Ben Avery.
This is one of the best verbos we have ever stayed at. 10/10. A nice area and not far from Phoenix. It was clean and a lovely place and perfect size for us. Great hosts. Had no issues whatsoever and its easy to find. If we ever go back to this area we will be staying here again.
We really loved the place. It was our first time there and we would love to come back there.
It was very clean. They had fruit, wine,cheese and cracker and water and coffee there for us. Love the little house.
