The property was spotless, beautifully maintained, and had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The amenities were a major highlight (pool, multiple TV's, basketball court), which made it possible for everyone to unwind in their own way. The host was responsive, friendly, and made check-in a breeze. You can tell they’ve put a lot of thought into making the home comfortable and enjoyable for guests. We had an amazing time and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!

Great Home for a Group

We had a great time at this beautiful house. We had a large group of family together at the house and just cooked, relaxed and did all of the activities at the house. There was something for everyone and enough room to spread out and not be on top of each other. We hardly left the house, there was so much to do. The entrance doors all need a little fixing but the owners were very quick to respond to any issues. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect stay

This property was the perfect place for all of us to hang out all weekend, always had something to do and the pool was extremely clean. I would say the whole place is a lot bigger than the listing makes it seem as well

Retirement with immediate family

Very nice property, only had an unfortunate problem with pool not being able to keep heating. The remainder of the property and amenities were great. The entire family enjoyed the stay.

Something for everyone!

This property had something for everyone! My teenagers loved being able to have so many options on what to do. The property is well maintained and incredibly spacious. The kitchen is amazing and it was so easy to prep large family meals. Grocery stores are close by and easy to get to. Some members of our group ran everyday and enjoyed the scenery of the mountains nearby. Excellent communication from the host; it was very clear they want you to truly enjoy your vacation!

Our family vacation

The stay was amazing everything was exactly how it was advertised. Heather was very attentive to all my inquiries and her responses were almost immediate. This house literally has everything you need so if you don’t want to leave the home you wouldn’t have too. She has games, big screen tvs in every room and outside, pool table,darts basketball and the pool and jacuzzi etc basically everything you need for every age group. Close to a lot of shopping and restaurants. I would definitely recommend this location to my family and friends. My family and I will definitely be staying here again. Thank you for an amazing time Heather your are the best!!!

Wonderful family vacation

We had a great family vacation here with 7 adults and 4 little kids. The backyard was amazing, with a nice, clean heated pool and hot tub. The kids loved the putting green and all the pool floats - we spent most of our time back there! The electric inflatable pump was a nice touch and there was plenty of comfortable seating as well. The kids also loved the bunk room with sliding board and the board games. Heather was an excellent host and was proactive about fixing an issue with the pool. She was very responsive to questions and helpful with suggestions. There's a nice view of South Mountain and we went for a good hike there. The only downside of the location for us is that it's on a busy street so there is constant traffic noise. We found that we tuned this out pretty quickly, so it wasn't a big issue - but it was never quiet. Several grocery stores were close by. The kitchen was stocked with plates and silverware and (plastic) drinkware for a big group but was light on other cooking supplies. A little inconvenient when cooking for a big group, but we still managed fine. Overall a great spot for our group!
