Very nice location for wonderful Mountain View’s and close to many hiking trails. The Garage Apartment is a perfect place to explore and enjoy all of the mountains in surrounding areas. It was well furnished with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We hope to be back!
Great location, hosts, and apartment. Everything was clean and beautifully decorated for the holidays. We really enjoyed our time here and hope to return.
Love our stay! Jennifer was responsive to communications. The place was immaculate and cozy. The views are amazing! Lost count of the number of quail and dove that ran and flew around the neighborhood. We were looking for quiet and we found it. Definitely recommend a stay here.
The hosts were exceptional. The space was beautiful and peaceful. Great location for quick access to the Salt River and many hiking trails. Would recommend and stay here again!
Great apartment, spotlessly clean, very comfortable bed, out of the city, so nice and quiet, easy access to shopping and attractions. The host and hostess were very kind, Enjoyed being there so much, booked it again for next year! Thank you!
Clean, comfy and quaint. View of mountains out the glass garage door was a perk. We enjoyed our stay visiting family and friends and will be staying here again when we visit the next time. Great communication from Jen and Dennis. Thanks again for providing us a great place to stay
The property was a great place to relax after a day riding the side x side and all the other fun things we did. Jennifer and Dennis were very accommodating and great host.
This was the best experience that we have ever had for lodging. Very unique reformation of a garage. The hosts seem to have thought of every need of the customer. We are planning to visit next year!!
Everything in the garage apt was perfect for us. The size was just right, the bed comfy and views out of the glass garage door was great! Mountains and wildlife! The apt was fully stocked with absolutely everything you might need! The owners were super nice and communication was top notch. I would highly recommend booking and would rent again if I have the opportunity to go back to the area!
This apartment garage was a super comfy place, with amazing Mountain View’s. It was very quiet and the bed was so comfy we both slept all night long! Jen is a great hostess who is very responsive and friendly.
We had such a fabulous time at the garage apartment. It was so convenient to all the things we wanted to do. The space was spacious for the two of us and beautifully done. Kitchen qas one of better equipped we’ve had. Hosts were so accommodating. Will definitely return next time we want a get away in this area. Thank you!!
The garage apartment does not disappoint. We flew to AZ from Boston for a wedding and the garage apartment was the perfect VRBO for us. It’s quaint, well equipped, wonderfully decorated, clean, easy to get to, etc. I would highly recommend this property!
Had a wonderful 5 day stay at this property. Was a good jumping off point for area hiking, breweries, and air museums in both Phoenix area and Tucson area. All amenities were as advertised and appreciated. Apartment was very clean, bed was very comfortable, and it included all amenities necessary for a short or longer stay. Lots of thought was put into what visitors need at this location and it showed. Would highly recommend for any solo or couple travelers looking for comfortable and relaxing stay in the area.
What a great place to stay! You will have all the tools you need to cook you own meals,a grill, a blender also. Very peaceful place. Short drive to Mesa and Apache Junction town. View of the mountains is beautiful. If you like being off the main course ,this is the place to be. It’s everything that they say it is. Thumbs up all the way 👍🙂
We had an amazing time at the garage apt! It was cute, quaint and comfy. My husband and I stayed in the master with a super comfy bed and our friends slept on the sofa pull out couch. We loved hiking the treasure loop at the The Lost Dutchman park. Also liked eating at the Handlebar on Friday night. Jen brought us over some cookies and local brew that was perfect from when we got home from the wedding and enjoyed out by the fire pit. The garage is perfect to stay when close to all the things we needed for the weekend! Thanks for a great stay!
