Adventure in Apache Junction

I traveled to Arizona with 3 teenage grandkids for some family fun. This house felt like it was made to order! Having three bedrooms and two full bathrooms made the stay very comfortable for all. The large well-equipped kitchen gave us the luxury of cooking and dining together, plus saved us money by not having to eat every meal in restaurants. The two large leather sofas in the living room provided us with plenty of room to relax together. We all appreciated the somewhat secluded location of the house, and the seating areas around the house were wonderful for enjoying the beautiful weather. Bonus: the first day there the kids were checking out the perimeter of the house and got to see a javalina!! I was thankful for the protection of the fence surrounding the house. Thank you so much for making this house available to travelers from colder climates. We can’t wait to come back!

Great place

The house was great and so was the location. We loved seeing the local wildlife - coyotes, javelinas, rabbits, quails, roadrunners, and other small birds.

Beautiful views!

Family flew in from out-of-state to gather for memorial for our mother/grandmother/great grandmother. We felt very much at home and thoroughly enjoyed the well stocked home and the views were amazing. Glad we had a fence around us as we had havalenas and coyotes just outside the fence. It was an amazing stay. thank you so much.

Comfortable House in Apache Junction

The house was very comfortable and clean for 4 adults staying in Apache Junction for a wedding. The check in was smooth with all the information we needed being sent to us via email a couple days before our arrival. The house was a little hard to find at first but with the directions sent by the property manager we figured it out. We enjoyed our stay very much and would rent the house again if we return to Apache Junction in the future!

Best VRBO Ever!

We have stayed in many VRBO's and this house was one of the best we have ever rented. The kitchen was fully stocked with coffee fixings, spices, Ziploc bags, and plenty of dishes, flatware, and cookware. The back yard views are spectacular and the cactus in the front yard was stunning! We appreciated the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the showers and access to the garage. We were in town for a family wedding, but if we ever had a need to stay in Apache Junction again this house would be our first choice!

Beautiful house

This is a beautiful house... open floorplan, clean, nice size bedrooms, and nicely furnished. Comfortable living room furniture. It even came complete with a huge tailless scorpion spider standing guard near the garage entry to the house.. LOL. We respected his space, and he did the same and stayed outside. It's the desert, you have to expect to find such critters. I also loved that it didn't have close neighbors, it felt like I had some privacy. If there is one thing I could say to the owners of this lovely home, please provide your guests with better beds. All the beds in the house were painfully uncomfortable, and prevent me from getting a decent nights sleep. A comfortable sleeping space HUGELY impacts the enjoyment of ones stay. Had I been able to be comfortable while sleeping, I would have given it an overall 5-star review. The master bedroom felt like someone just tossed a mattress topper on it, it was all foam, not supportive in any way, and barely 6 inches thick. The other bed were not comfy either. I ended up sleeping on the couch just so I could get more than a few hours rest.

Perfect

We were there for our son’s wedding at the Paseo. A quick 6-7 minute drive from the venue. The house is spacious and comfortable, well equipped, definitely a home away from home. The surroundings are beautiful, neighbors are quiet. The peacefulness of the area contributed to a beautiful 5days in this location. Highly recommend!

Excellent stay in Apache Junction

Spacious, clean, well apportioned home in Apache Junction. This home was really comfortable and way more than what my wife and I alone needed, but it was wonderful to have plenty of space! The kitchen was modern with newer appliances. When we were here, the icemaker and water dispenser were disconnected, but that was fine with us. Nice laundry area with Maytag machines. We wanted to see nature, hike, etc and a friend from Phoenix told us (later) that this area has the most nice trails close. He's right. Superstition mountains are nearby with many nice trails. Nearby grocery stores, but not many good restaurants. The property managers were quick to respond to any concerns. We would definitely recommend this home and hope to stay here again. Note, this home is in the desert, not in the city. We saw and heard coyotes, jackrabbits, lizards, etc. We LOVED the privacy.
