Wow!

Very comfortable and clean with great views. A true home away from home. Nice and quiet and close to whatever you need. Fun watching the people hike and bike the hill. Next time we’ll bring hiking boots.

Another awesome Mini Mansion week

The Mini Mansion is one of our favorite places to get away - this was our third visit here. It is the perfect size for my wife and I. The house is very clean and well kept with all the comforts of home. Jane and Bob are wonderful hosts who provide many nice extras. The views of the mountain are great and the nearby access to hiking trails is a big plus, too! We hope to keep coming back!

Absolutely Terrific!

We spent a week here and loved every day of our stay. This casita is clean, quiet and has one of the best spots anywhere to watch the sunrise while enjoying desert birds, coyotes and even boar in the park beyond. One can literally hike right out the back door or simply take in the beauty from the expansive patio. Safe community, with all amenities a short drive away. Communication with Bob was timely and clear. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect Getaway Location

I really needed a quiet, beautiful, warm location/setting to spend the holidays on a personal retreat and the mini mansion was perfect for this. The daytime natural setting, the evening sundowns, the late night chiminea fires, and the patio grilling were perfect. I enjoyed the coyotes running and yipping within 50 yards of the patio, the visiting roadrunner, the large flocks of desert quail on the patio, the hummingbirds, and the bees busy at work in front of me. Thank you and I'll be back.

About the host

Hosted by Jane and Bob

We hope you enjoy your stay at the Mini Mansion.

Why they chose this property

Location location location. While this home is nicely furnished and attractive inside it is proximity to South Mountian that makes it special. Backing up to the nature preserve allows for spectacular sunsets, trail access and entertainment watching hikers and mountain bikers in the distance.

What makes this property unique

We call this home the Mini Mansion. It seems appropriate as it is a cute little house with a million dollar view. The large patio is like another large living space in the mild Arizona winters. The patio is the perfect place to sit and enjoy a sunset glass of wine or Chinese takeout.
