Katherine, we’re glad you enjoyed your stay. I’m startled to see a 4 star review. We didn’t get any communication that anything was amiss. Was there something that disappointed you about your stay that we should address?
The house was very clean. The Host's were very responsive and made out stay so easy to feel at home. They had the pool heated for us on arrival, such a great touch. I would definitely stay here again.
We really enjoyed are stay. Check- in was super easy and the property was everything we thought it would be. We didn't use the pool, because that was not our focus on this trip. I would definitely recommend.

Thank you Stacey! We’d have you back anytime! We’re so glad you enjoyed our home and your stay!
Great Communication! Well stocked kitchen, linens/bedrooms, and bathrooms. Plenty of space. Quiet neighborhood. Hot tub/spa not working correctly, do we were unable to use that feature. (Weather too chilly for pool.)

Hi Tracie! Thank you so much for staying with us! I’m so sorry to hear the pool and spa weren’t working during your stay. I wish you would have let us know there was an issue, so we could send our pool technician sooner than his weekly maintenance. When we discovered the issue from him, we replaced the heater right away. Our cleaners said you left our place in very good condition and we appreciate that so much! We’d love to have you back!
Well appointed and comfortable home in the San Tan Valley area. The neighborhood is very quiet yet the home is convenient to stores and restaurants. The owners were very responsive and gracious. We enjoyed the pool and backyard throughout our stay and would definitely rent here again!
The house was clean with a well stocked kitchen and pantry that made making meals a breeze. The outdoor area with grill, fire pit, pool and hot tub was perfect. The hosts were very responsive. Would definitely stay here again.
This is a nice, smaller home in the wonderful Johnson Ranch development. My friends and I loved that the house provided everything that we needed, including a relaxing pool and spa, to make another great Country Thunder experience!
Beautiful house, well stocked and clean, pool was awesome and warm. Mike and Beth were great to deal with. Highly recommend this place for kids as it’s well suited to enjoy and watch them play.
Couldn’t be happier with our stay. Check in and check out are easy. It’s in a great location. With great communication from the host. Would stay here again!

Thank you, Liz! We're so glad you had a great stay at our home away from home! And thank you for being so respectful of our property and such great communicators yourselves! We'd love you back anytime.
We loved our stay. This property has it all. Comfortable rooms, a heated swimming pool and hot tub. The owners put together videos that really helped advise us on how to heat the pool and hot tub and introduced us to them and the property. Cant thank them enough for their home to us. Would definitely stay again.
From the moment we walked in the door, the house was home away from home. It was immaculately clean and the hosts were available to help when needed. It is very spacious, the pictures don't do it justice. It is absolutely beautiful and had plenty of room, and located close to shops and restaurants.
I would highly recommend this house! It was comfortable, well stocked, and felt like home for the week we stayed. The pool was a hit with our children. We can't wait to visit again!

The house was great - very comfortable and well stocked with everything you need. Beth responded to a question i had right away. We especially loved the pool and spa. It was the perfect spring break getaway from the cold and snow! We’ll stay here again!
This home was perfect for our needs. The house was clean and comfortable with all the amenities we could have asked for. Thank you for everything!
