We provide dish soap, laundry soap, liquid hand soap, toilet paper, and paper towels for your use. Please provide your own toiletries. We also keep some basic spices and condiments on hand (dates are checked regularly). Bring or purchase whatever food and drinks you plan to consume during your stay. There are Safeway, Sprouts, Albertson's, Aldi, and Fry's grocery stores close by. Bulk stores such as Costco, Sam's Club and Winco, are also close; find directions on your GPS or call us. Panoramic Wifi provides excellent internet coverage throughout the house, and allows for catching up on work or email, gaming, and chatting with friends or family who weren't lucky enough to come along. Massive Primary bedroom suite with king-size bed, balcony, sitting room with flat-screen TV, huge bathroom with walk-in shower and soaking tub, and walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms offer queen beds; a fourth bedroom has a double bed, to provide comfortable sleeping room for eight guests in four bedrooms. Main floor bedroom (with queen bed and private TV) also has its own bathroom; the two other bedrooms upstairs share an ample bathroom with tub & shower, two sinks and plenty of counter space. Morningside backyard includes access to the lake (non-swimming) and a small peddle boat. All season, heatable pool and spa, comfortable covered patio with furniture for eating or lounging, large barbecue grill (gas), and space to soak up some Arizona sunshine. NOTE: Be sure to let us know if you want the pool and spa heated. (See details below.) When you've had enough sun, step inside to air-conditioned comfort; the patio and all rooms are also equipped with ceiling fans. Or turn on the heat to chase away the mid-winter night time chill. You’re welcomed into an inviting living/dining room combination, and then a sprawling great room. Enjoy a large, well-equipped kitchen area with granite counters, new induction range, modern appliances, lots of work space, and a beautifully unique copper-top kitchen table. The great room includes a billiard table and large curved-screen smart TV with internet connectivity so you can watch your favorite programs. (The bedroom TVs are also smart TVs, with internet and Roku.) You may log into your streaming accounts; please remember to log out when you leave. Use Pay-per-view at your own expense, please. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood in the midst of the Ocotillo development, you can golf the nearby courses. Use the peddle boat just to paddle around and feel the pleasure of nature and blue sky; or to fish in the lake (catch & release only). This home is situated right off of both Alma School Road and Ocotillo Road. There are many nice restaurants and plenty of shopping close by. For convenience, comfort, amenities and access, you've found the perfect spot for your vacation!
-->IMPORTANT POOL HEATING INFORMATION: There is a separate, privately paid fee to heat the pool and spa during the winter season, when the days are lovely but the nights are chilly and so is the water! Here is the fee breakdown: Pool and spa - $340 for up to 4 days; $500 for a week. $70 per day thereafter. Spa alone- $160 up to 4 days; $250 up to a week. $35 per use thereafter. Pool alone - $285 up to four days; $450 up to a week. $60 per day thereafter. You may also request the option to pay $40 per hot tub use, up to four hours per use session. (Hot tub must be turned off by 10 pm for the sake of neighbors, city regulations, and pool cleaning operation. ) You may also pay $75 per day for pool alone, $110 per day for pool & spa heat, spa for four hours per day only. (This is the least economical method, but a good option for short stays or random use.) Please contact the owner in advance to make arrangements. Please be aware: Continuous hot tub heating is cost-prohibitive damaging to the system, and therefore not an option. The heating system is not industrial. Also, the pool and spa can’t heat at the same time, so a schedule is necessary. We apologize for this expense, but it’s unavoidable for swimming in the desert in winter. (Our cost is much higher!)
PLEASE NOTE LINENS POLICY: We will take the cost of towel and bedding replacement from the damage deposit if these are ruined during your stay. We kindly remind you as guests, this is a home, not a hotel. Our policy is strict due to avoidable damage. We keep paper towels and plenty of old towels on hand to wipe spills or floors, and black makeup cloths to remove makeup. The old towels for spills and cleanup can be found in the bathrooms under the sinks, and in the laundry room cupboard under the sink. There is peroxide and other cleaners if you need to treat blood stains on sheets. Thank you for your understanding and for taking care of our home as our guests.

Beautiful home. Very clean. And plenty of towels provided. Kitchen is very well equipped with everything needed for meal preparation. We only did breakfast but appreciate all the supplies and options. Plenty of grocery stores nearby (Safeway Albertsons Trader Joes) and Bosa Donuts and Peixoto for coffee.The location was excellent for primary purpose of our family gathering which was Cubs spring training. Also good base for exploring Phoenix area and easy day trip to Tucson to visit Saguaro National Park and Pima Air and Space Museum. Strong consistent WiFi for our kids to work remotely and separate spaces throughout house for working. Owner Karla responded immediately to few questions we had prior to and during trip.

Thank you so much for a really helpful, specific review! I'm always grateful to know when guests enjoyed our home; but your extra details will be helpful when others are booking.
Karla was a fantastic host and incredibly accommodating when our flight was canceled. The home was clean, beautiful, and offered plenty of space for our family. The pool and spa were so refreshing, and the backyard was wonderfully relaxing with its peaceful water views. We especially enjoyed using the pedal boat.We cooked multiple meals in the well-equipped kitchen and on the BBQ. The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe—we went on walks every day. Overall, a truly enjoyable and relaxing stay.

Thank you for your terrific review! We hope you’ll return!
We stayed for here for our son's wedding and this home was perfect for our needs! Loads of space, beds were comfortable, kitchen was stocked with all the necessities...better than any VRBO we have previously stayed. The communication with Karla was always prompt and she was very accommodating. Would not hesitate to book again!

Thank you for your wonderful review! We hope you’ll return!
We had a wonderful time in this beautiful home. While it was unreasonably chilly and rainy while we were in AZ, we had a great time. The home was comfortable, well appointed and located near everything we needed in the sweet town of Chandler. It had a well stocked kitchen for meal prepraparation. The beds were comfy and the pool table was a hit. The lovely owner, Karla, was communicative, responsive and flexible to our needs. We will definitely stay here again if we make it to back to the area.

Thank you so much for the lovely review! We truly appreciated your stay, and hope you'll come again.
Great location. Close to grocery stores and food options. Lots of space for our family of 6. Enjoyed the pool, doesn't get much sun in the afternoon so late morning was best. Easy to communicate with hosts.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House was so close to grocery stores and activities we chose to attend . House had a large variety of utensils, pans, bowls, storage containers, etc. Will definitely stay there again
Staying at this house felt just like home. It was relaxing, in a great location, and was thoughtfully stocked with soaps, leftover condiments & spices, towels, bedding, appliances, games and books. Thank you Karla for sharing your family home with us!

About the host
Hosted by Karla or Tim Cox
My husband Tim and I raised a large family, and we now are busy with our work, personal pursuits and spending time together. We especially like to be with our children and grandchildren to enjoy each other and make memories. We often gather at vacation rentals, so we decided to offer our home for the same pleasant experiences for others that we have when we're together.
Why they chose this property
We love coming to Arizona, and this home is so relaxing! We enjoy the beautiful lake, cooking together in the kitchen, and the spacious rooms. We love the pool and spa. The setting can't be beat; you feel like you are at a resort, while enjoying the comforts of home. We like to get away to Arizona, and we think you will too!
What makes this property unique
The home is near everything you need for an enjoyable vacation. Both Sky Harbor and Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airports are less than a half hour away. There is golfing, hiking or shopping, and Spring Baseball (with major and minor league practice) is all around. Chandler boasts many great restaurants. But there are also endless options nearby in Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale, Gilbert, and other surrounding cities. This home is decorated in a comfortable Southwestern style, with leather furniture and rustic touches, and no shortcuts on quality or comfort. The heated pool is a definite bonus during chilly winter days and nights, and not often an option at homes for rent. Spend some time paddling around the lake in the paddle boat. It is great in the morning or early evening. Greet the neighbors and feel like you're at home.
