The home was clean, but sparing on necessary items for home comfort. An Example, one towel/wash cloth per person for a weeks stay is not enough. 8 forks and spoons-not enough. Cooking pans were in terrible condition making cooking difficult which is suppose to be one of the attraction of short term rentals. The back yard needs help. Very stark and uninviting. And like many of your guests have commented the hot tub situation is not good, but seems to be an ongoing issue. The location was great. The beds comfortable.

Because of using several VRBOs in the past, I was expecting the same level of excellence. It was little things, not enough blankets, only five teaspoons, no cover for the spa. The spa wasn't preheated. It was 63 degress when I went to check on it. It took over 24 hours to get it up to 103. We were there three days before we could use it. That issue was much more important for me for my back issues.

This house was amazing! It was very clean upon arrival, easy check in process. The host was super accommodating as I had an emergency situation and needed a place to stay for 3 weeks same day check in and they were amazing. No issues at all through my entire stay, very nice kitchen with everything you could need at a rental. Beds were super comfortable, lots of towels available. Host was very easy to contact, they would respond within the same hour if I had a question. Sent reminders for trash day/ pool maintenance and gardeners. House is right behind the scottsdale canal, so great areas to walk in the mornings/evenings. Very convenient location to Old town

We spent the week here before dropping one off at college. The house provided us everything we needed to spend fun quality time with the family. House was clean, beds were comfy and the backyard provided hours of fun with the pool/hot tub/golf/and table for visiting and games. Thank you for the memories!

Working Vacation
We came to spend a week in the sun and a pool while we worked. It was a great and convenient location and well suited to work remotely. The beds were comfortable! The only thing of concern was the hot tub cover was broken so we couldn’t use the hot tub everyday because the water was low from evaporation. We didn’t think to ask how to fill it so that was our bad.

Everything we hoped for!
The house was comfortable and cute! The pool was extremely clean during our stay. A couple things would have made it even better! The hot tub was extremely chlorinated to the point we couldn't sit in it without coughing. There was no extra blankets. We 100% would come back!

Like Home Away From Home
The property was fabulous! It had everything we needed and a great atmosphere.The backyard was private and well manicured and was our favorite place to hang out as a family. The pool was beautiful, although we did not swim during our stay - it was still a little chilly outside. The kids had fun putting around with the supplied golf clubs and balls. We all enjoyed the hot tub! It was so relaxing and peaceful when we eased in each evening after we returned from our long day of events. Glaring out under the stars was so peaceful. We also enjoyed eating outside in the evenings under the lights on the covered porch. The kitchen and living room area was a big open space and had everything that we needed. We could cook up a meal with all the well stocked culinary tools at our disposal. We then relaxed in the living room and watched a family movie. The three bedrooms were perfect for our family of four. The king-size room was very spacious and had a private door to the outside area. It also had a desk where we could catch up on work. The boys loved the bunk bedroom, and that is where they spent most of their time while indoors. They also enjoyed having the ability to separate and have their own time to read or watch TV, which was available in each of the bedrooms. The full-size washer and dryer were very handy to keep up with our laundry before flying back east. Overall, we were very happy with this house and we highly recommend this property to any families and all that
