Lovely home
This rural hideaway was just the thing we needed after several days in downtown Phoenix. We loved getting to see all of the wildlife that come to the water feature in the backyard. Very quiet, very clean and a lovely spot for relaxing in rural AZ.
Property was very spacious for the four adults staying. We had a wonderful and relaxing time during our stay. The house was exceptionally cleaned and easy to access.
This property was exactly like listed! Beautiful home, beautiful property. We very much enjoyed the wildlife and views! Quiet neighborhood! Would stay here again!
This is our second time staying at Stargazer - so nice! Beautiful, comfortable, wonderful views, even early morning wildlife at the water feature.
Hope to return!

Great place for a big family
The big family area, great kitchen, lots of beds, really comfortable place with very nice furniture, game, cards etc. Beautiful setting under mountain. This was perfect for our family who came to AZ for nephews wedding.
The house is in a beautiful neighborhood on the edge of Gold Canyon, meaning we were the perfect distance from The Gold Stallion. Great trip, great house!
Beautiful house. Best equipped kitchen I’ve ever seen. A lovely fountain viewable through the glass living room wall enabled the enjoyment of many kinds of birds and wildlife. All very relaxing.
Beautiful home, quiet neighborhood, SPECTACULAR mountain views! Such a wonderful place to return to after a day of hiking/site seeing. We will be returning!

The views of the Superstition Mountains are awesome! Very quiet and great location. Very nice and extremely clean house. Would definitely stay here again.
We were barely here due to needing the home only for an off-site event where we spent 90% of our time, but the home was clean, comfortable and fit out needs quite well.

Perfect retreat
Beautiful house in a beautiful secluded area. We enjoyed the stunning views of the Superstition Mountains, bird viewing right outside the back door and large open concept living spaces. Perfect accommodation for our group of women who wanted a place to get together, relax and re-connect. Check in, directions and check out very easy.
We met with grandparents and an Aunt for an early family Christmas. The location is beautiful. My Aunt especially loved watching the hummingbirds, quail and other birds come to the water feature. We enjoyed the views and lots of pictures were taken.The house was great for Elderly and young alike. ywo
This house was so great! It had very comfortable gathering places. The kitchen was fully stocked with enough plates, utensils, and cookware. Amazing counter space- perfect for big meals. The outside areas were comfortable with beautiful views of the superstitions. We loved the feeling of being in the desert with close proximity to the city.

Huge Property with Amazing Views
This was an incredible experience for our family. The views of the mountains and cactus were breathtaking. The kids loved seeing all the birds enjoying the pond. We also enjoyed stargazing at night at your firepit table. The living space and kitchen were large with plenty of seating for the whole family. We could walk right from the house to hike The Petroglyph trail with a waterfall at the end. Highly recommend for a unique and tranquil getaway.
Amazing view from porch. Faces north, with complete shade all day. Even on 90 F day, porch is comfortable. Enjoyed bird watching and saw mule deer come to drink from foura
Overall clean and welcoming property. Great location and quiet neighborhood. We had 2 empty propane tanks so we couldn’t grill anything outside and tried to get in contact with the property manager and never heard back the entire stay. There was also pretty minimal supplies there especially in the kitchen. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable besides the master suite. Overall we had a great stay, it would’ve been a bit better if it was supplied a little better.

Gold Canyon Stay with gorgeous views!
Although we live in AZ my son’s wedding was in Apache Junction and we did not want to drive 1 1/2 hours each way for various events so we rented this listing in Gold Canyon. It was better than shown in the listing photos, absolutely immaculate with absolutely spectacular views of the Superstition Mountains. Definitely off the beaten path but close enough to grocery stores for convenience. The water feature out back was a nice feature we sat and watched various wildlife come in to drink including quail, rabbits and a spectacular red tail hawk. The view from each window is literally like looking at a gorgeous desert painting- truly spectacular views of the Mountains. Beds were comfy, tons of towels, extra pillows, blankets and anything you could need. Would definitely recommend to others
