It is in a quiet neighborhood. We were in town for a wedding and it worked perfectly for all of us! The beds were very comfortable. I do wish they had queen beds instead of full in two of the rooms though. The owner was very responsive and helpful!

Wonderful large home

We booked this property to have a graduation party for our first grandchild graduating from college. We had family and friends coming from all over the country. The home is large with lots of room. All the beds were comfortable. The pool and hot tub were great. We had 14 people staying at the home and a party with about 40 people. We brought 3 folding tables with us and There was plenty of room for Tables to be spread out for serving food. The back years is wonderfully landscaped. We used the bbq grill every night. The home was the perfect setting for us to have this celebration. I messaged the host a few times with questions. He was very accommodating to our needs, responded quickly and was very friendly.

Tuscon

We enjoyed our stay. The house was great for our family. The kids loved the pool and we all enjoyed the hot tub. The location was great for what we wanted to do. It would have been nice to have another garbage can - 14 people for a week generates more than one can when there is not recycle. We very much enjoyed our stay at your house.

Lots of room!

This property was great for our small college competition team to stay in! There were tons of beds and bathrooms, the place was very clean, and all the amenities were as advertised. The location was excellent and quiet, there was a nice plaza right next door for groceries, etc., and the driveway was perfect for our multiple cars. We loved to pool and hot tub, and I especially appreciated the awesome grill! Great place to stay and will use again in the future!

Excellent family friendly home with a great location

House was roomy and pool was enjoyable. The location of the home was so convenient and close to a lot of shopping/grocery stores. Only down side was that the air conditioner in one of the back bedrooms was not blowing any cold air into the room, making the room not useable so 3 beds were out of “commission”. The homeowner was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire stay. Would def stay here again.

Spacious, Comfort and Great Location

We had the absolute time of our lives in this great home!Plenty of room for everyone and so much comfort. Every single bed was so comfortable that we didn't even miss our beds from home. The kitchen was stocked well. My only complaint would be that one trash can I not enough room sor such a big house especially if you are hosting small gatherings. The pool area was great and plenty of room for the dogs to stay happy.

U OF A GRADUATION

I believe I can speak for everyone in saying that we enjoyed our stay so much at your estate. We had all 6 of our grandchildren there as well as our three kids and was also able to enjoy a small grad party for our son. The kids LOVED the pool. Sitting out there on the deck at night after the kids were all tucked in bed was so peaceful and enjoyable. Thanks for allowing us to stay.

Great place to spend time at with a large group

The house was great for a large group. We stayed for three nights and decided to spend time at the property on the last day rather than going back downtown, because the area in back had great views and the pool/hot tub combo was super pleasant. The kitchen was set up very well for prep, cooking, and cleaning with one or two cooks. It was a little tight otherwise. Super convenient to get to grocery stores, and a few good restaurant options within walking distance (limited sidewalks).

Foothill’s Easter weekend getaway

Foothill’s older style house with plenty of room and heated pool. This is house has great location near the southeast corner of Ina & Oracle. This house has plenty of rooms for all to have their own space. We had two families, and my in-laws and still had a room unused. Plenty of parking space and well lit drive way and entrance. I’ve stayed at a lot hotels & VRBOs but this house had the most comfortable beds I have slept in besides my own Tempur-Pedic at home. My kids asked if we could rent this house again when we go school clothes shopping. This location I definitely would recommend!!!

Amazing Family Christmas

We had an amazing 10 night stay in this great house. Enjoyed the pool and spa a lot thanks to the heated pool and some wonderful AZ weather over the Christmas break. The separation of bedrooms in “wings” as my kids called it was great to give everyone lots of space to retreat if needed. We had a large group for 10 days and no one felt confined. We appreciated having in house laundry so we could pack lighter. The common areas dividing the house in the centre were also great and had lots of room for entertaining, playing games and having big meals. Kaleb was amazing to work with answered any questions that we had immediately! I would highly recommend this house for large groups!!! Also, being able to walk to grab just about anything we needed was an added bonus, great location!
