Great time, lovely house. Amazing view!

We love the property and enjoyed staying there. It's very close to restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. Jerome is a place that I highly recommend to people who haven't visited yet. And this was a wonderful place to stay.

Perfect Christmas Getaway!

We loved everything about our stay! The house was spotless, thoughtfully updated, beautifully decorated, and even more gorgeous than the photos. Everything was exactly as described in the listing. It was easy to locate, easy to check in, and provided a perfect holiday setting for our family of four and our lazy old lady dog. The kitchen was well-stocked, beds were cozy, and we loved stargazing from the porch. Jerome is such a magical place, we’ve stayed in 7 or 8 vacation rentals in town and this is definitely our favorite so far. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Great vacation rental. Everything you could possibly need is included. The house is decorated with so many special touches. Close enough to walk into town for restaurants, shopping and nightlife.

Wonderful property!!

We were very excited for our stay at Zamar House - not only did it not disappoint, but it exceeded our expectations. The house is incredibly comfortable and decorated in an eclectic style. Everything we needed was included. I must mention the beds - the mattresses were fantastic! We have rented 7 different properties in Jerome over the years and this is far and away our favorite. We will return and highly recommend this property for anyone looking to explore beautiful Jerome.

Fantastic weekend getaway!

We stayed for a girl's weekend and enjoyed wine tasting in Page Springs and Jerome - the house was amazing! All the charm of a home from 1902 with all of today's amenities. We loved being able to cook our own breakfast - the kitchen has everything you need and then some. The bedrooms (and whole house) are decorated so cute and fun. And the mattresses were outstanding, seriously, better than my own at home! We walked to town for dinner one night, jogged down to the park for a workout one morning and just enjoyed the beautiful views from the porch!

Delightful old house

Everyone should visit Jerome, such a fun place! Zamar House was such a great place. Comfortable beds, great kitchen, beautiful outdoor areas with expansive view. The bathrooms were awesome, great showers, claw foot tub. Easy walking to great shops and restaurants. The property is well maintained and the outside lighting was great. The stairs leading downstairs can get a little slippery when wet. Would recommend with house for couples and families with older children because of all the steps. Gretchen was great to work with and was truly interested in making sure we had a great stay! We are planning to make staying at Zamar House an annual event.

Halloween in Jerome

Beautiful, vintage home. It has two separate levels. The upper level has a full kitchen and two rooms, one with a queen and one with a twin and living room and bathroom with a nice shower. So much attention to detail The lower level has two sitting rooms with a couch and some game tables, two bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a nice shower and one with a bathtub and separate shower and a wet bar. Everything is vintage and quaint. There are several sitting balconies with beautiful views. The decks and screen doors are a bit run down but the house is over one hundred years old! It is also not for anyone with physical limitations. There are a lot of stairs, which are well lit at night, and it is a bit of a rough walk in to the main part of town. Kitchen is well equipped. We had a great time and will be back next year!

Great property, great location.

Three coules stayed in the property over the weekend. Charming old house, very clean, lots of supplies provided. There is a washer and dryer in the unit which was great to have. The kitchen is amazing, lots of room. Each of the three bedrooms had its own bathroom, one even had a hugh tub in it. Was able to walk to downtown Jerome, although there are some hills to get there. The linens were nice quality. The best part was the wrap around porch, great views from there, and we enjoyed sitting outside despite the mosquitoes. Downside, parking is VERY difficult. There is room for two cars, luckily we had motorcycles so they fit in the space. The road to the unit is terrible, very uneven, big lip parking the bikes and they scraped the bottom a bit. Even the road leading to the house was bad, if you have a low car or one that you don’t want scraped on the bottom you might be better parking in town, that is, if you can find parking. There is no microwave in the unit, we had to “remember” how to heat things in an oven. The furniture is “antique”, or more or less made for smaller people. The living room furniture could be updated a bit, there is only seating for 4 and the house says it sleeps 7 (which it does, but I would not recommend that many people at a time). Overall a very pleasant stay. Would consider renting there again.

Beautiful property with amazing views. The property was as described. Very comfortable beds. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Although you do have to go downstairs to the mini bar to use the microwave. There was plenty of parking for 2 full size vehicles. We parked and walked everywhere during our stay. Restaurants, entertainment, shopping all within walking distance. Just be prepared to walk many stairs throughout Jerome and at the property. The owners were very responsive to all of our questions. The owners were very patient with us upon departure. Unfortunately, one of our vehicles had a dead battery when we attempted to leave and It took Triple A a very long time to come give us a jump. The owners were very understanding and gracious which made an annoying situation so much easier. We would definitely stay here again. Can't wait to return. Book this one! Beautiful City and a very comfortable home.

Wonderful weekend getaway

Our stay at the Zamar house was superb! We had 6 adults and an infant and really enjoyed our time. The house and bedrooms are much more spacious than the pictures appeared online. We were pleasantly surprised with how much room we had in the upstairs living room and kitchen.

The house was great tons of room. If you are older than 50 I don’t recommend this house the stairs down to the house and the lower floors are very steep and filled with foliage you will crash and burn. Very cool vintage house to stay in.

Fantastic Property!!

We were blown away by this property! It was so charming, historic but had absolutely all the comforts and conveniences of home. We walked all over Jerome right out the door, early morning to late night. That was so great! We loved every minute of our stay! Thank you Gretchen for being a super amazing host! We will definitely be back!

Loved Zamar House in Jerome, AZ

Zamar house was perfect for our 3 couples that had been in residency together. It is decorated really nice! The beds are comfortable, and we each had our own bathrooms. The neighborhood is quiet. We enjoyed cooking, eating, and playing cards, as well as walking around Jerome. Zamar house was the perfect place for us to gather.

Purely Jerome

The Zamar House is everything you love about Jerome with just enough updates to still feel very modern. You basically get 2 separate houses: the upstairs and downstairs. We had 2 couples in our group and we each had our own private space. So much charm!The host is very accommodating and responsive. Dedicated parking for 2 vehicles. You're going to walk some stairs but it's Jerome... it's gonna happen!! It's actually a very level walk into town which was a great bonus as we were expecting major inclines. All-in-all we couldn't have been happier. Thank you Gretchen!!

Nice stay in a fun town

My (adult) family visited Jerome and this was our second time back to the Zamar House. It is conveniently located close to town with off-street parking. Each member of our family had their own comfortable bedroom and bathroom. We also appreciated the well-stocked kitchen for cooking breakfast or dinner at the house. We hope to return again someday!
