The host was very welcoming and communicative. The house and outdoor space was so thoughtfully done and made our vacation a premium experience. We could not have been happier with the booking.
My kids and I were in town to see family and old friends. We loved the convenience of the location and all the little details of the house. The owners were pleasant and helpful throughout our stay. What stands out for me is how it's nice enough to know I was on vacation, but homey enough I could relax. A sweet spot for a VRBO.
It was too short. We were in town as we headed out on an excursion to Sedona and national parks. This house had everything we needed in a wonderful community close to shopping and hiking in South Mountain preserve. Everything was well thought out from activities, kitchen supplies…but…the pool was the star of the show! What a great time! Hope to be back soon!
Probably one of the best houses stayed in. Great Location to everything. House has really cute details that make it unique. Comfortable space to enjoy with friends and family. Owners put in extra details to make our trip feel special. Extremely Helpful and Friendly. My group already wants to go back. The backyard is perfect for hanging out playing games and swimming in the heated pool. All around an awesome space
We had a wonderful stay at the Ranch. The home is beautiful and it supplied everything we needed. The heated pool was an added bonus! It’s also in a great location. I would highly recommend staying at the Ranch.
This house has everything you could possibly need for a relaxing vacation. Nicely decorated, comfy beds and a fabulous backyard. Michelle even made our birthday celebration extra special. We can't wait to come back!
“The Ranch” was set up perfectly! Michelle went the extra mile in every aspect of our stay. She provided special touches just for my family and was also responsive with any requests and/ or questions. Would highly recommend,
The pool and house were amazing! With the July heat, we spent many hours in the pool, with plenty of pool towels provided, it was great. The bedrooms were big with comfortable beds. The house clean and spacious, bigger than the pictures made it look. Plenty of room for the 8 of us to spread out. Homeowners very quick to respond to any questions. The neighbor was convenient to get to, with shopping and restaurants close by. We would stay here again, highly recomended.
My husband and I have stayed in VRBO's in Ukraine, Italy, Curacao, and multiple states across America. The Ranch was by far the cleanest and most organized home we have ever stayed at. I can't count the number of times we have looked through pictures and a house looks amazing, we book it it, and when you show up it's completely different. Not the Ranch- What they display online is exactly what you walk into and I must say, it's even better then the pictures! We traveled there with six of our kids. The homeowner has thought of everything! This was our first vacation where I wasn't having to run to the store to grab things that weren't available in the home. It was the exact opposite! I actually brought things that we never needed because Michelle had already planned for it! Plus there were so many welcoming touches that made us feel special! I highly recommend this house! We will definitely return!
