About this property

Oasis in the desert - your hiking and biking paradise.

Spacious single family home located in a desirable quiet residential community close to the MAYO Clinic and lots of outdoor activities. Hiking and biking trails are just outside the neighborhood. A shopping center with an upscale international market and coffee and wine bar is down the road and Kierland Commons, Old Town, golf courses, shopping and restaurants are all within 25 minutes. This home has high-end finishes and has everything you'll need. This will be your perfect home away from home.

The space
Spacious great room opening up to the backyard oasis with mountain views and private pool and waterfall. Ceramic wood planking throughout. The home offers 3 spacious bedrooms. The main bedroom has a office space with desk, monitor and office chair and flows into an oversized bathroom and walk in closet. The second bedroom with ensuite bathroom has a queen bed, barn door and computer monitor.
The third bedroom is down the hall next to the third bathroom and is spacious with bunk beds, twin bed and ample toys and books. All bedrooms have large screen TVs. Two queen air beds are available at the property.
This home is located on a private cul-de-sac street. There is one parking spot in the garage and room for two additional cars in the driveway. No overnight street parking is allowed.
Internet is via fiber optic cable with download speeds up to 150 Mbps.
We love the location of this property with views of the mountains all around and proximity to lots of outdoor activities.

Other things to note:
When traveling with children beware of the dangers of pool drownings. Children need to be water safe and supervised. Alarms are installed on doors and armed. To bypass the alarm press the button before opening a door.
Minimum stays are 30 days.

Room for Improvement
Owner was helpful with a broken kitchen faucet. Replaced it promptly. Empty propane tank was replaced promptly. Location good for us. King Bed had a big lump in the middle. For a three bedroom that sleeps 8 house came with a mini coffee maker that made 4 cups. We bought a 12 cup for convenience. Biggest problem was owners things filled up all cabinets in kitchen. NO room for groceries etc when we stocked up for our three month stay. We had to remove things and move to open up a little space in three different cabinets. Bath OK and pool area OK and grill was good quality. Be advised that stove is INDUCTION so it takes getting used to. Owner seems to be open to questions and comments.

Lovely Home in Mountains Near Fountain Hills
The home is quite comfortable and furnished with good sturdy furniture. The master bedroom mattress is a Tempurpedic. The children’s beds are small. The guest bedroom queen sized bed is made up with king sheets so you might want to bring your own queen size sheets. The fabric of all of the bedsheets was quite course, but we always travel with our own so this posed no problem for us as we covered what was on the bed with our own. The kitchen is a good size and has nice appliances, including an induction cook top a newer, three door refrigerator, a good oven, a small coffee maker, a Nespresso for Espresso coffee, a good blender, a toaster and an electric hot water pot for tea. There is both a breakfast room table and chairs and a furnished dining room. The TV’s are large, but I would recommend bringing your own ROKU (we always do) or other device as very limited internet channel connection is provided by the host. The washer and drier are great. When the Dyson vac failed the host promptly had a nice Miele delivered. There is no BaBQ grill on the patio. The pool is not heated, but looks lovely and the pool deck is equipped with nice furniture including 3 chase lounges, a round table with four chairs, a rectangular glass table with 4 chairs and four cushioned chairs around a fire table outside the master bedroom. The grapefruit tree yields wonderful fruit. The house is decorated with a plethora of nicknacks and plastic greenery and plants. Way too much for my taste, but I am sure some might believe this adds earth to the home. The views from this home are wonderful. It is located on a nice quiet street in the mountains. I would have liked to have had a BarBQ, a heated pool and a lot less nicknacks and plastic greenery, but the house is lovely and it is located in a quiet neighborhood with scenic trails nearby.

Thanksgiving Family Getaway
We had a wonderful time at this property. The house was very clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. They have detailed instructions on how to use the appliances, tv's, etc... She had an abundance of soaps, shampoo and towels and plenty of games for family fun. We absolutely LOVED the location. We went on hikes every morning. I would highly recommend this property to my friends and family!

About the host

Hosted by Anja K Kerstens

Host profile image
We love to travel and while we are away like to share our home with others so they too can enjoy the beauty and serenity of Hidden Hills.

Why they chose this property

There is so much to do and the weather is truly wonderful. Yes, it gets hot in the summer but while enjoying the refreshing pool or the other water activities it is not too bad. There is so much to do in the area and I especially like to tube down the Salt River which is only a short drive away.

What makes this property unique

If you like the outdoors this property is wonderful all months of the year.
