⚠️ Honest Expectations (Read Before Booking)

• Please note that parking is limited to one car on the right side of the driveway, though additional street parking is available if you have multiple vehicles.
• The Pool: The pool is unheated. It is refreshing in the Arizona summer but will be chilly in the winter months of November through March.
• Noise Potential: While the neighborhood is residential, this is an urban location near other units. You may occasionally hear neighbors or dogs from the rear units, though they do not have access to your space.
• Sun & Shade: The pool area gets plenty of Arizona sun! We recommend bringing sunscreen as shade coverage varies depending on the time of day.
Guest Access:
• Entry: 100% Contactless Self Check-in via a secure keypad on the Front Door facing the street.
• Parking: You have dedicated parking in the driveway or free street parking directly in front of the house.
• Wayfinding: Please ensure you go to the Main House front door. The side pathways lead to the rear units. Please respect their privacy as they respect yours!

• Dining: Plenty of local favorites for tacos, coffee, and brunch are within a 5-minute drive.

Cute Place
Can definitely tell that the owner has done some renovations, but overall the house is super cute! Fit our needs for a girls weekend away. Pool was clean, beds were comfortable and the main bathroom is amazing. Second bathroom had a funny smell, but nothing that made it unusable. Would definitely use again.

Budget Friendly with a Pool
This Vrbo worked out perfectly for us. The price was great and the home was close to GCU AND it had a pool!
This is an older home and It looks like the owner is doing some remodeling to upgrade the property. The neighborhood is not upscale but it is safe. The canal behind the home was a nice walking/running area we took advantage of.
If you are looking for something clean, with a pool, and are on a budget....this will work out great!

Our review
The kitchen and baths were great! The listing said 8 guests…there were more pillows which were needed but no pillow cases, and there were 6 sleeping areas. The fold down futon fits one person but there was no bedding to put on it and the living room couch was ver short making it difficult to sleep on and there was no bedding for the 8th person either?? My sister arrived first and called me to bring 2 sleeping bags and 3 pillow cases. Maybe provide and hide a bed or cots/pads even and extra bedding to ensure 8 people can actually sleep with bedding. Otherwise, it was great

Worst Experience Ever
The pics are misleading and host did not communicate with me at all prior to arriving in Phoenix with check in details. We had a late flight arriving in Phoenix and I tried contacting the host through the app and phone and did not receive any response. My party of four had to find a room last minute late at night, not how I wanted to start my vacation :-( Didn't receive check in info from the host until the next morning, one day after our scheduled arrival and only because VRBO support had to get involved. No apology or accountability whatsoever from the host on the lack of communication, blamed it on the VRBO app. Not sure what they do with the cleaning fee because the furniture and pillows had stains, the pool and outdoor area was not clean, in fact the outdoor furniture was dirty and had mold. There was an odd smell when arriving to the property and made my stomach turn, one of the bathrooms smelled of mold. The master bed was uncomfortable, pillows were flat and decorative pillows were stained. The fence in the back yard was falling apart, not a well maintained property at all and a terrible experience altogether. I took pics of the property but not seeing that I am able to share. I am still trying to get reimbursed for the additional expenses I had to pay out of pocket for my first nights stay. I would not recommend staying at this property if you want to have a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. I would have given this experience 0 stars (horrible) if that was an option. Note to self when traveIing - if you can't find reviews on a property there is probably a reason why and book elsewhere.
