From the moment you approach the house, you get a sense that the builder cared about every aspect of this design.

Nestled back on a beautiful piece of natural desert, this ranch style home is set to be a popular location for vacation goers who want to experience Arizona at its best. The drive up to the welcoming front porch shows off an unusual stained glass door and window. Step inside and feel a part of the southwest right away.

The right side east wing offers access to 2 Queen suites and 1 King suite. Each bedroom has its’ own bathroom with spa like shower and a courtyard for quiet reflection and communing with nature. The courtyards can be accessed by doors from each bedroom. Bedroom One is the Vintage King Suite. This room is comfortable and homey. Light wood, quilts and antiques bring a feeling of peace in this room, just what you want when on vacation. The Classic Queen Suite (bedroom two) has the charm and style of a well-appointed resort, pairing the elegant, dark wood furnishings with the lightness of contemporary floral. Bedroom Three, the Hawaiian Queen Suite is the most fun room of all, bringing a sense of the islands to Rancho Venado. This room pays homage to the Hawaiian parental roots of the owner. An additional wing to the left provides a small stairway to the magnificent Master Bedroom. At first view, you will see another piece of architectural art: the beautiful stone fireplace. The rest of the King Master Suite is equally incredible. Well thought out accommodations and classic pieces of furniture take you back to the feeling of the old west, perfect for this part of the country. You will also notice the same theme continuing to the sitting room off the master suite for reading or just plain quiet time.

Certainly picked the right spot. Enjoyed Tombstone, Air Museum, Saguaro National Park, and botanical gardens. The home was perfect for the family. We were greeted by Elsa in a very comfortable manner. Our communication with Elton was top notch. Highly recommend this property. ##### Ted R. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ric W.

The area is beautiful and it’s a great house - ideal for a lot of people. The caretaker was very communicative and helpful before we arrived, and made sure we were well taken care of. My only issue would be that the house is a bit dated, the lights are hard to operate in that the switches are in odd locations, and the water and heating temps were hard to manage. These are fixable things that would take this property from pretty good to excellent. We certainly enjoyed being there. ##### Ric W.

The house was spacious, well appointed, and spotlessly clean. Even my very fussy wife was completely satisfied. While we were there, a hot tub was installed and we could not get my 5 year old grandson out of it. The property managers, Mary and Elton, were easy to work with, helpful and completely fair. Even though the price of propane had gone up dramatically, they honored the daily price to heat the pool that we had agreed to nearly a year ago. We would surely stay here again. ##### John B.

The house was perfectly located to this venue. We loved being outside the city a bit and thoroughly enjoyed sitting and relaxing on the patio while staring at the mountains / scenery. The house had everything we could have needed and more. We appreciated the abundance of towels, pillows, linens, sunscreen, and kitchen supplies. The patio, foosball table, pool, and hot tub were by far our most favorite parts of this house. The pictures don't do it justice! If you are considering staying in this area, don't look any further and book this property. ##### Lindsay D.

Certainly one of the best VRBO homes we have stayed in. Home is well designed and furnished for a group with several "gathering" spots. There is a great outdoor patio room that is spacious with plenty of seating and a foosball table that has views of the mountains and the beautiful pool. The kitchen was well stocked with all of the cooking utensil needed for our Thanksgiving feast. During the day we enjoyed bike rides and hikes in Saguaro National Park as there are many trails nearby. We saw coyote and Antelope Jackrabbits in the desert. This is truly a lovely place managed by lovely people who have done an extraordinary job of equipping the home to be comfortable for groups and families. Thank you for sharing with us, we hope to return soon! ##### Paula P. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kaity B.

The patio is a great addition to the living room. Everything you could need was already in the house for you to use. ##### Kaity B. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LaRita J.
