Perfect getaway

This was such a lovely spot! Clint was great and this property was exactly what I was looking for. The casita is just as charming as pictured, and the proximity to the hiking rails and Goldfield was perfect. There are houses in close proximity but it still is quite rural and quiet. I particularly enjoyed walking around to see all the birds and bunnies, as well as the beautiful sunsets. Also loved hanging out on the patio in the evenings. I hope to come back someday soon!

Amazing stay

We had an amazing stay at this property. It was very clean and spacious. Plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 children. The views from the covered outdoor area are breathtaking. We really enjoyed the view whilst eating out there. The property is in a very quiet and peaceful location great for exploring the area. The salt river tubing was a highlight for our family. We would highly recommend staying at this property.

Location, Location, Location

Fantastic location for mountain views and walk-out access to hiking. Very responsive and friendly host. Host allowed us to check in a bit early as we arrived into town earlier than expected. The casita is close to the host’s home and other neighbors, so noise from family time in the outdoor pool and neighbors working on home projects outside were a frequent disturbance. Inside is clean and comfortable but needs a little attention. Coffee cups were chipped and stained, kitchen chairs were falling apart, and drapes had a giant rip in them. Overall, the house is priced accordingly.

Casita Bonita!

Great property on the edge of a State park (Lost Dutchman) , where the trails are just a block from the home, and the view of the Superstition Mountains and desert landscape from the back patio greets you with your morning coffee. We were looking for something quiet outside of the city, and this property filled that need nicely.The house itself is wonderful--- quite spacious, well equipped, etc-- the photos are quite accurate, but don't do it justice either. It is a beautiful little home.The host was very communicative, quick to respond, etc, but also completely respectful of privacy. We did not actually see him during our visit at all. That worked great for us, because, as I said, he was reachable at a moment's notice via text.

Superstition Adventure

This pleasant casita is a great place to stay for a visit to Lost Dutchman State Park and beyond. The building is older, a bit funky but super-well maintained. The view from the open-air covered patio is both stunning and relaxing. The accommodations are clean, well-supplied and comfortable. Quiet, residential neighborhood. The host, Clint, was very communicative and friendly. The place is easy to find if you use your GPS. Shopping, eating and entertainment are just minutes away in Apache Junction.

Comfortable desert casita with a brilliant view of the Superstition Mountains.

If you're looking for a desert experience in a cozy southwestern home then this is the place for you. The casita is tucked away on a desert property about as close as you can get to Superstitions State Park. You have a view of the mountains just outside the living room windows. The accommodations are great--a full kitchen (it even had spices and coffee available), comfortable beds, and a nice enclosed patio. Clint gave great instructions on how to get to and access the property and very responsive. Overall, this was a great stay and I would return again.

Perfect location to avoid crowds

Our stay in Apache Junction couldn’t have been better. For starters the communication with Clint was terrific. Once at the casita we found everything we needed for our stay including some amazing views. We wanted to stay in area that provided easy access to Phoenix and the towns South of Phoenix while enjoying the quiet and nature during our downtime. This casita in Apache Junction definitely provided everything we were looking for. If you are more interested in terrific views and easy access to nature then look no further. This property provides these things in abundance.

We stayed at the casita at the end of March. It was wonderful. The views are beautiful , the little yard is beautiful with tons of native plants. Sunsets were amazing. Interior of the casita was clean, rustic feel with all modern amenities. Nice beds. Everything was very functional. No complaints with the host at all, communication was great. The casita was better than expected.

Serene, Gorgeous views of Superstition Mountains

My husband & I greatly enjoyed our stay, with the quietness, privacy and spectacular views of the Superstition Mountains. We are not strangers to Arizona and have always been in awe of the landscape around the Apache Junction area. Clint was an excellent communicator with the written directions waiting for you as entered the Casita. He emailed you needed information and responded promptly back to you. The Casita was well stocked in the kitchen and you could tell they tried to think of anything their guests might need. Same goes for the bathroom and greatly appreciated the property had a laundry room (well stocked with needed items and an area to hang clothes not able to put in the dryer). The area was close to many of our favorite attractions and easy to get to stores as needed. Would not hesitate to return to this property in the future!!

Wow!

From the moment we encountered a coyote in the middle of the path to this casita, we were hooked. Yes, it’s that kind of rustic-yet-comfortable, quiet, one-of-a-kind place. Don’t pass this by if you’d like a peaceful stay in a location with beautiful views and easy access to hiking in astounding scenery. The casita itself was better than the photos, very well-equipped, and most comfortable. It’s telling that all was self-explanatory and so thoughtfully prepared so that we didn’t have a single question or issue needing Clint’s attention; if we had, we know he’d have responded promptly. All in all, our stay exceeded expectations. Thank you!

Rental exceeded expectations

When we entered the home, as promised the door keys and a page of informational info greeted us on the table. Photos from the website were very accurate so nothing was a surprise except for the cleanliness, the openness of the home and the neighborhood was very welcoming. We came to hike in Superstition Mtns and followed the directions Clinton left us to hike in the state park without having to drive our car. (Very close to the home) Neighbors even have signs posted that read "Hikers welcome" "not parked cars". Any questions we had; our hosts immediately responded to them but that was very infrequent. We lucked out and were able to observe the "blood moon" our first night from the back patio; enjoying the peace and quiet of the area. Great place to reacquaint with friends new and old. Thanks, Clinton for making our stay worry free and fun!!! We'll be back!!!

Being at the foot of the Superstition Mountains provides not only short access for hiking paths but also a fantastic backdrop for morning coffee and an evening cocktail from the casita's lovely patio.
