About this property

The Hen House: Enchanted Casita Near Downtown Phoenix

Discover a hidden gem of a bygone era. Our cozy, spacious, immaculate, tastefully designed, and private detached backyard guest house is in a quaint historic neighborhood created in the 1920's that invites you to take a stroll and soak in the charm of a different era. We're conveniently located 10 minutes from the airport and within walking distance or a very short drive from many concert venues (including The Van Buren, Crescent Ballroom, The Nash, Arizona Financial Theatre, Orpheum Theatre, Symphony Hall), sports stadiums (including Chase Field and Footprint Center), great restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and lots of attractions.

This private and quiet studio casita with one comfy queen-size bed is well-stocked with lots of amenities to make your stay comfortable.

Beautiful, lush, serene, quiet backyard with private patio area to enjoy your morning coffee or afternoon/evening drinks and watch the chickens while taking in a 360 view of one of the prettiest backyards you'll ever experience.

And when the citrus blooms are in season the fragrance is amazing! The casita is a separate structure on the property so you'll have it all to yourself. Mature and lush landscaping provides a serene outdoor environment, including several inviting seating areas as well as your own private patio where you can enjoy watching the chickens. (No rooster!)

This place is an oasis! What a lovely place! I sat outside in the patio area.to eat lunch. I spoke to the chickens everyday. I walked the neighborhood and was.just astounded at the beauty of the development. The casita is clean, bed is super comfy. They even had 3 bottles of chilled water ready for me. The bathroom is clean and towels nice a heavy. I could go on and on. Definitely my favorite VRBO to date!

Peaceful Summer Refuge

The Hen House was a lovely retreat from the scorching Phoenix weather. We had a wonderful stay in the quiet casita between our time exploring downtown. So very grateful to our hosts--and thank you, Larry, for the extra help with loading our car! We would love to be back, and we highly reccomend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful stay.
