Absolute best rental!

This absolutely exceeded any and all expectations! The property is beautiful, clean, and large! The fenced in yard was huge and allowed the dogs to roam and play while being safe. Beds were extra comfortable with excess extra sheets and blankets in closets. Pantry had all kinds of fixings (we didn’t use as we brought our own) and spice cupboard had everything you’d need. Lots of dishes, silverware, pots/pans and utensils galore.

Fantastic Stay at Diamond Star Chateau

Amazing stay, even in the hottest part of the summer in AZ. Phoenix was 118 and Payson was 103 the weekend we stayed at this awesome home. The house is beautiful, 3 floors with the basement which is absolutley functional with the ping pong table, two couches and TV. The main floor has floor ac, I brought 2 fans to accelerate the cooling process, but the 2 bedrooms on this level cooled down very quickly. The Kitchen had all the amenities needed for cooking (pots, pans, grilling gear. Also bring Coffee, creamer, sugar, spices, mayo, ketchup etc because nothing is kept beyond as of fear of spoiling I'm assuming. The grounds are the best part, huge yard for pets, I brought my dog, lots of space for running around in the totally fenced yard. Amazing views, very quiet, and very well kept, I'd definitely come again.

Lovely, Serene Stay!

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful property! Magnificent views from every window with a wraparound porch and fully gated property that our Golden Retriever loved! Like most mountain areas, there are a mix of different kinds of properties. Looks like most people have lived in their homes forever, and when we reached Diamond Chateau we were fully secluded with a view that allowed us to enjoy the nature around us. Very serene! We enjoyed mornings on the porch swing, then in the back grassy yard (would love to see this property all in bloom!) and evenings on yet another patio watching the sun come down on the mountains and stars come up. Beautiful property, clearly built and maintained with care. Inside is just as lovely with the spacious kitchen, living room and master bedroom. This home can clearly accommodate 7 and more if children enjoyed “camping” in the loft area. We wanted for nothing and simply enjoyed the views and wildlife. We would love to visit again!

Daughter’s birthday

This is my second time staying here and I absolutely love it! My husband and I took our daughter and 3 of her friends, and it was a blast! They were able to spend the majority of their time in the basement playing ping pong and watching movies. They all slept in the bunk bed room. It was an absolutely amazing weekend and we will for sure be back!
