Loved our stay at this house. Exactly the relaxing stay we were looking for. The house was exactly as described and very clean. Would be happy to stay here again.
We loved our stay! Very spacious and comfortable inside and out. We had perfect weather to enjoy the outdoor amenities to include the pool, hot tub, BBQ, and cornhole!
This was a perfect home for our family of 5. Very clean and well maintained and it had everything we needed. The property manager was very communicative. Would definitely recommend!
The home is lovely and well maintained. The grounds are also very beautiful and it had an overall feel of wonderful relaxation and hospitality. Will definitely stay again!

Disliked: Check-in, communication
The property, amenities & cleanliness were exceptional !! I will consider booking this property again-Just waiting for the host to reimburse me for the 1st nite's stay when I was not given the code in a timely manner-and had to stay in a motel - he called me the following morning & apologized, insuring me he would credit me for his mistake- still patiently waiting...

As discussed we have made the refund. So glad you enjoyed the property. We do give the codes on the day of arrival.
This home was extremely well appointed! It was probably the most well stocked vacation home I’ve stayed in. Everything was super clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend and/or return!
Me and my large group of friends really enjoyed our stay. It was centrally located to all the activities we wanted to do. We loved coming back and getting into the pool (without it being heated) unil the sun went down, then we switched to the jaccausi. We were really glad we found the house. It made our trip that much greater.
We enjoyed our stay which allowed us to be close to family for a 70th bday party for our uncle. Thanks again for having us.

Reviewer Comments:
Property was great no complaints. Did not use pool due to the "heating charge?" Did not use hot tub. Beds very comfy. Only complaint was the insane amount of barking dogs once the sun went down. Confronted two people about it. Unsure if it worked for those specific dogs. Noise maker at night helped. Over all very satisfied, nice place with lots of room to relax. I'm not from Irvine not sure where that came from. Prior military in Cali but never lived in Irvine.

This property was a nice stop along our grander road trip. The property was less than five minutes to Sonoran Desert Preserve which served as some early morning mountain biking. Location was rural and quiet in comparison to the main Scottsdale area.

A perfect long-term rental. Beautifully furnished with all the amenities. The property manager, Wes did a great job with questions we had and always got back to us promptly.
This space was just as advertised. We had tons of plans for our trip, and ended up doing nothing but hanging at the house. We didn’t want to leave, and we didn’t need to-it had everything. Rural type of neighborhood-heard roosters, donkeys and horses-which was fine by us.

It is so funny how many reviews I have received on this wonderful home that guests state they never wanted to leave. The backyard is FANTASTIC. Glad you enjoyed as well... Hope to help you next time as well. Thanks again for staying with us!

We rented this home for an extended period. It is wonderfully furnished with most everything you might need. Wes, the property manager was on hand for any questions we had. The back yard was a very nice space to hang out. We had guests come stay and we enjoyed the pool and fires at night. This place is perfect if you prefer to be a little out of the city but still close to restaurants and many grocery stores. The neighbor is quiet with very nice neighbors. Short drives to many trails if you like to hike or bike ride.

This house and property is fantastic. Beautiful home and property great for entertaining. Our only negative, is that the location is further away from activities that we like to do in AZ. But the home/property certainly make up for that. It is spectacular!! Working with Wes is very pleasant - he's so very helpful!!
