Family Thanksgiving
We enjoyed our stay in this spacious home. Everything was well stocked and there was plenty of room for cooking and eating Thanksgiving dinner. The Arizona weather was amazing, so most of our time was spent outside while enjoying the pool, ping pong, bags game, TV and space to visit. Ted was very prompt in answering any questions during the whole process. Thank you!

Cannot say enough about this house
I have stayed in a lot of VRBOs over the years and this was by far one of the best experiences I have ever had. The photos do not do it justice, the location is great and the communication with Ted was top notch. We will be back.

Baseball tournament
We had a baseball tournament in Goodyear so shared the house with a few of the other players and their families on the team. Lots for the boys to do when they had downtime after the games. Large kitchen and dining room and 3 living rooms so lots of space to spread out and relax. We really liked that there were 3 rooms with 2 queen beds too. Ted was really responsive and on top of things. He noticed that the temperature in the house was higher than usual the first day and sent a repair person to check it out and he sent us a reminder about trash day too. He was quick to respond to any questions we had. Overall, we really enjoyed the house and the location.

Home Base for a Destination Wedding
The home and outdoor pool area were perfect for our family group of 11. The home is very well equipped with everything you could need. There are three large areas with couches, large screen TVs, and tables so that our group could spread out and watch NCAA basketball tournament games when we weren’t using the three ironing boards and getting ready for all the wedding events. Our host, Ted is extremely responsive. In fact, we have rented from VRBO for 10+ years and he is easily the most responsive.

VRBO did not let us modify our original review which was in error, but hope this will serve to show all future Property Owners what Great Guests you are, we hope to host you again some time.....

Wonderful Thanksgiving retreat for the entire family
I can only echo all the other positive reviews as the house is luxurious, in a lovely, quiet (gated) neighborhood, is well equipped, exactly as advertised and it easily accommodated our large family gathering of 10 adults and one baby. Ted was one of the best hosts I have ever experienced at a vacation rental, he was very responsive and willing to go the extra mile to answer questions or address any issues. For example, he provided a list of the kitchen inventory ahead of our rental so I could better plan for our Thanksgiving dinner, then he ordered extra warming trays before our arrival to help with keeping the food warm for such a large group and he was immediately on top of things when the fridge started to fail shortly after our arrival; the repair was completed very quickly. We also benefitted from a stroller, playpen and highchair that are available at the house. We were able to enjoy the heated pool and the extensive, well-manicured yard and firepit during the amazing fall weather. We can highly recommend this property. Enjoy.

The best.
Traveled to Arizona from Philly for the Cardinals/Eagles game with family and friends. (Boo eagles!) Knew we needed a place that would accommodate a rowdy bunch. Ted's property more than fit the bill, giving 12 of us plenty of room and living space to operate. The place was everything advertised and more. Well kept, spacious and modern and in a neighborhood you could see yourself living in. Situated right near EVERYTHING, all of our destinations were just an Uber ride away. After just a few days it felt like home. I really didn't want to leave the place, I was so smitten. Ted was amazing. Communicative despite problems with the Vrbo app and made sure everything was to our liking. I can't see myself using another property the next time I come to AZ. Do yourself a favor and book with him if you need a desert oasis.

Perfect for big groups and entertaining
The home is beautiful, comfortable, and great for entertaining guests. It was the perfect place to celebrate my son’s 18th birthday and high school graduation. The roomy kitchen made it easy for multiple people to prepare food at the same time. After buying out Costco, the two refrigerators/freezers and abundant storage were very much appreciated. There was ample seating and plenty of space for people to spread out. We had so much fun in the pool and the game room. The backyard is a desert oasis with lots to do. Ted was very kind and responsive. He saved the day after the venue I booked months ago canceled our reservation the day of check in. I can’t thank him enough. My family had lots of laughs and made wonderful memories in his home.

Family wedding
This home was ideal for our large family to stay together as we traveled to Phoenix for my son's wedding. We had a party of 18 and the accommodations were perfect. The pool was a huge bonus - the kids swam the entire time. The kitchen was large and well stocked. The grill and drink cooler outside made eating at home easy. The refrigerator in the garage was a huge help for overflow beverages. The bar area made entertaining for the rehearsal dinner-party that much more festive and put together. Would rent again in a heartbeat!

The check in process was seamless. The gated community is quiet and safe we felt right at home. The property itself is just as the pictures portray the place was clean there are plenty of a starters , pots, pans, paper towels, soap towels, silverware everything that we needed was already there. There are plenty of seating areas to relax, watch TV, read a book and play games. The pool was clean the grounds immaculately kept ; we didn't want to leave. Ted and his wife are super responsive and helpful and even have a guidebook with things to do in the area and stores around the area making exploring less of a hassle. The property owners are warm and friendly and if/when we're in Phoenix again we will definitely be staying here. Thanks again for your hospitality.
