As a temporarily relocated family, we're excited to share our slice of paradise in response to the limited availability of rentals in this bustling city.



Welcome to a true home away from home! As residents of this beautiful area, we embrace the natural surroundings, which may include encountering some friendly spiders, scorpions, or even hearing the occasional coyote or being visited by deer. Please note that we don't have full-time housekeeping staff, but rest assured, our home is meticulously prepared for your arrival.

If you're in search of perfection, we encourage you to consider booking a five-star hotel. However, if you appreciate authenticity, comfort, and great value, our house is the perfect choice for your stay. Welcome to your home away from home!

Lovely home

The house was very nice and exactly what our team needed.. The Homeowner went out of their way to ensure we had a great stay. They even went out to purchase large backyard games for us to play.. When there was an issue Wendy answered her phone right away and solved the problem immediately.. Definitely will see if this hose is free when we come back next year for another softball tournament..
