Perfect Place in Apache Junction for two!

Everything in the garage apt was perfect for us. The size was just right, the bed comfy and views out of the glass garage door was great! Mountains and wildlife! The apt was fully stocked with absolutely everything you might need! The owners were super nice and communication was top notch. I would highly recommend booking and would rent again if I have the opportunity to go back to the area!

Amazing Escape

The garage apartment does not disappoint. We flew to AZ from Boston for a wedding and the garage apartment was the perfect VRBO for us. It’s quaint, well equipped, wonderfully decorated, clean, easy to get to, etc. I would highly recommend this property!

The Garage-a cozy spot

My husband and I traveled to Apache Junction for a wedding and I looked for a property that was close to the venue. Not knowing much at all about the area, I selected the Garage based on photos and location. The accommodation was everything we needed and so much more. The furniture was comfortable, the decor was clever, the outdoor space was cute, and the whole vibe was perfect. The space is larger than I expected. The hosts are very kind and attentive. It is quiet and away from town, but at the same time, it only takes 10-15 minutes to get to stores, restaurants, outdoor recreation, etc. I highly recommend this property and look forward to coming back to Arizona some day in the future!

Stay in Apache Junction

Had a wonderful 5 day stay at this property. Was a good jumping off point for area hiking, breweries, and air museums in both Phoenix area and Tucson area. All amenities were as advertised and appreciated. Apartment was very clean, bed was very comfortable, and it included all amenities necessary for a short or longer stay. Lots of thought was put into what visitors need at this location and it showed. Would highly recommend for any solo or couple travelers looking for comfortable and relaxing stay in the area.

Wedding weekend

We had an amazing time at the garage apt! It was cute, quaint and comfy. My husband and I stayed in the master with a super comfy bed and our friends slept on the sofa pull out couch. We loved hiking the treasure loop at the The Lost Dutchman park. Also liked eating at the Handlebar on Friday night. Jen brought us over some cookies and local brew that was perfect from when we got home from the wedding and enjoyed out by the fire pit. The garage is perfect to stay when close to all the things we needed for the weekend! Thanks for a great stay!
