About this property

The Casita -- Modern 3-bdrm, 2-bath, Walk to Asu, No Added Fees

This remodeled 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is located within walking distance of Arizona State University and Mill Avenue, which is the heart of downtown Tempe. City bus routes and a light rail system make this location quite desirable. The property is close to Sun Devil Stadium, Grady Gammage Auditorium, Tempe Center for the Arts and Tempe Town Lake, which is the home of the annual Ironman Triathlon and numerous other events. The AZ Cardinals stadium is a 30-minute drive away so this property is a perfect location for AZ Cardinals games and the annual Fiesta Bowl. If interested, the owner often has extra AZ Cardinals tickets. The nightlife of this college town makes this home ideally located for those who want to vacation in a quiet neighborhood close to where the action is. Since the property is very centrally located in the metro Phoenix area, you can hang out in Tempe or go anywhere in the metro Phoenix area very quickly and inexpensively. Executive as well as designer golf courses are nearby. A short drive will take you to numerous spring training facilities. The Phoenix Zoo is less than five miles away. The living room, all bedrooms, and the backyard patio are equipped with cable television. The beautifully landscaped backyard features a covered patio and gas grill. The interior of the house is newly furnished with contemporary furniture. This property can accommodate 6 guests but, if you need to find lodging for more, we own 2 other vacation rentals on the block. You can see them up at VRBO.com/395773 and VRBO.com/933406. Those properties both have pools. You will not be charged a cleaning fee at any of our 3 properties. The property can accommodate a family gathering but cannot accommodate a large event. If you are planning to host an event of any size, please clear it with the owner at time of booking. Thanks for considering our property. Shirley and Pete

Great location
We enjoyed walking along the river and throughout Tempe. It was also a short trip to visit friends in Scottsdale. We especially loved the backyard for grilling, playing frisbee with our dog and relaxing at the end of the day.

Thanksgiving time together
The casita was wonderful. It was immaculate with abundant amenities. Shirley was very responsive and helpful. The dogs loved the backyard and were sad to go home as were we. Will be back if we can find an open booking slot in the schedule, stays booked which should tell you everything you need to know about the property!

Our Guardian Angels!
Shirley (and Pete) helped us get into their adorable house, same day. Our AC went out and we needed to move ourselves, our 7 year old Goddaughter and critters as quickly as possible. Their house was comfortable, we had great wifi for work and the dogs loved the yard. We appreciate the flexibility with our timeframe and making sure we were safe and comfortable. Great outdoor space for when it isn't a million degrees out! Thank you both ❤️

About the host

Hosted by Shirley Filliater

Host profile image
This was Shirley's first house, which she bought in 1985. When we got together and Pete's son moved in with us, we moved to a larger home two miles away. But, we love the university area. There is always something to do close by -- a concert, a festival, a sporting event, or just taking a walk. We will probably move back to our ASU house in the next few years so, when we recently remodeled it, we decorated it with care. We hope you enjoy! - Shirley and Pete

Why they chose this property

It is fun to live in this neighborhood. It is quiet but close to a lot of activity. ASU students as well as home-owners live throughout, making the neighborhood upbeat and lively. Pete and Shirley have lived in the area since 1985.

What makes this property unique

The house is conveniently located to ASU and the numerous activities that occur there. You can always find something to do within minutes. A dog park is located at the end of the street so it is entertaining to just sit in the front yard, watching the neighbors walking to the park each night.
