Everything at this location was immaculate. The property is beautiful and a great western vibe. PLENTY of room. Plenty of parking. Huge kitchen with every utensil, dish, pan you could possibly need.
House was very clean and exactly like pictures. Everything was well stocked in the kitchen. The location was perfect for walking to downtown Cave Creek and to hiking trails. Internet was strong which was very helpful when we had to work. Check in was easy and plenty of parking available. One of the best places we have stayed.
Great neighborhood and piece of property. Nice private backyard with beautiful view of Black Mountain. Walk to hiking, restaurants and shops. House is nicely furnished and stocked for anything needed. Definitely recommended!!
