It has all the amenities you need to stay at the house the whole time and enjoy time together. Its only a block away from a great park for kids to play. The only thing is I would say the pool heating was a waste of money. It was warm on arrival but then it wasn’t warm again our whole stay. Even with leaving the cover on for a few days. So I would definitely skip that extra cost. ##### Lauren D. Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Rachel J. Feb 21, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice House Could Use Some Updates Overall we really enjoyed our stay at the house. The street was a little busy/loud and night for us, but great neighborhood otherwise. There were a few things that could make the house even better, such as curtains and trash cans in each bedroom and more hooks to hang towels on. The patio chairs could use updating as a lot of the wicker seats were broken so not super comfortable to sit on in shorts or swimsuits. The backyard was great but a heater/fire pit would make it even better! We also wished the outdoor speakers could be connected to. We really enjoyed our trip just a few things changes would make us pick the house again. ##### Rachel J. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jen O. Jan 7, 2024 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Hot tub issues The house is fine and mostly as advertised. The decor is a little strange but that isn't a criteria for a rental. The main issue our group had was that the hot tub was uninviting. We were looking forward to using it as we come from cold winter places. The water level was low and it was not terribly clean so it wasn't used. Otherwise, the house was fine. I stay in this area pretty frequently and, at this price point, there are better properties in the area. It should suit most peoples needs but it is not one that I would rent again. ##### Jen O. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Rene C. Apr 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice location, close to shops and restaurants. The hot tub was broken, very frustrating. Nice property. Great neighborhood. Extremely disappointed that the hot tub was not working and sent a photo to the hosts number on the app with proof the hot tub was not working. Very surprised that no credit/refund was offered by the host for this inconvenience. Other than that, home was as described. I understand things break and things sometimes are not working, but the fact that no gesture or acknowledgement of the broken hot tub is poor service from a host. I travel a lot and always have had hosts issue a refund, even if it’s a few hundred dollars, it’s the gesture that counts. We spent a lot of money for 4 nights 5 days and came from the east coast for the basketball games and expect better of such a nice property. Will be staying elsewhere next time in Scottsdale. ##### Rene C. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sterling A. Mar 16, 2019 #### Great space for our party of 9 and conveniently located to a lot of great attractions! As a disclaimer this was our first stay at a VRBO property so we don’t have a basis for comparison. After searching long and hard for a property that accommodated our party size and checked off our must-haves such as a pool and patio, an area for the kids to hang and play, and was centrally located to our activities, we chose this property based upon the pictures and feedback left by others. Overall our stay was great and the house met our needs. The photos do a good job representing the property so there were no surprises there. We found the beds to be comfortable, the kitchen fully stocked to make meals, a full tank of propane for grilling, an internet connection fast enough to keep everyone happy during indoor time, the pool was awesome and larger than anticipated, and the garage was available to park our two vehicles. The home is down the street from a park which we used and shops are in close proximity. While not dealbreakers and relatively trivial, depending on your use of the property these may be of relevance. Seating was a bit tight for the whole party but is manageable between the living room and adjacent dining room. We would have appreciated blackout drapes or blinds in the main level bedroom for sleeping and privacy as it is outside the pool area. The property contact, Mirjam, was very responsive from the minute we booked our stay and was quick to respond to our inquiries in short order. Thankfully there wasn’t anything that required action on our stay so smooth sailing there. Thanks Mirjam! ##### Sterling A. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Deborah J.

The day after my mother’s memorial service we planned on unwinding at the pool, but the landscapers returned. We did not feel comfortable using the backyard with them working due to lack of privacy. We stayed in the house. Spoke with the owner & she said that she had to work around the landscapers schedule. We booked well in advance & the landscapers should have came on the next morning when we were leaving.At night the upstairs bedrooms were hot. The owner insisted that thermostat set at 74 degrees was cool, but it was not 74 degrees in the bedrooms! The thermostat is in the small interior hallway. The bedrooms receive direct sunlight but the hallway stays cool. We found portable fans & had to use them with the overhead fans, but it was still hot. After living in Phx. over 20 yrs & returning I didn't expect icy air but comfortable enough to sleep.The downstairs bed fell because a leg was missing & it was propped up by a BEHR paint can that slipped out during the night. The faucet handle in the guest restroom was broken upon arrival. The owner offered to send someone out to fix the faucet & bed, but we were grieving & declined; didn’t want strangers in the house, we just wanted privacy. The fan over the pool table is extremely dangerous as it spins wildly & could break off from the ceiling if left on. Spoke to owner & she said just don’t use it. ##### Deborah J.

The house was more than comfortable for our group (up to nine). The back yard was the perfect place to hangout/chill as our kids entertained themselves with all the amenities provided. Location is peaceful and within walking distance to a great park. Huge thanks to Mirjam, she was very helpful, great with her communication and very pleasant to deal with. Would not hesitate to stay here again. ##### Craig H.

The property was just what we needed to relax and entertain ourselves. It has plenty of room and lots of beds. The pool table and the terrific backyard got a good amount of use. ##### Shelden H.
