We had a family get together of between 13-15 adults (a family of 4 siblings with their spouses and adult children with their spouses/significant others). The house served us very well! It was very clean and in good condition. We had no problems with any of the amenities, plumbing, etc. The kitchen had everything you might need, the grill was in working order, and the property is nicely landscaped. The basement had numerous activities like ping pong, shuffleboard, and table games. The pool was very small and not heated. The basketball hoop in the garage was a pop-a-shot type game, not a basketball hoop as one might envision. There are numerous large televisions with streaming service available.
The location was good overall with easy access to major roads and easy distance to Sky Harbor (15 min), Scottsdale (about 20-25 min), activities north of Phoenix, and hiking (literally out the back of the home and numerous trails within 15 minutes). The immediate neighborhood was nice but it got less nice very quickly.
The check in process was seamless and the host was very pleasant, easy to contact, and replied promptly.
If I recall correctly, the home truly has 6 bedrooms, one of which was very small. Then there was a room off the main living area on the main floor with a pullout that we used for a sleeping space. Lastly, there were two spaces in the basement that were separated by curtains that have beds for sleeping. So, to be accurate, I would call this a 6 BR home with 3 additional areas for sleeping. This setup served us well.
There were two things that I found a bit unconventional. The first is that there was a fifth wheel type structure on the property directly adjacent to the kitchen wall. Someone was there most, if not all, of the time. We had no problems with this or direct interactions with the occupant. The second was the host's obvious concern about noise level. There are references to this on the VRBO listing, numerous reminders posted around the home, and there were direct messages sent to me by the host. It was addressed so many times I began to be concerned about possible fines for making too much noise. In the end, this was not an issue and I feel we interacted in a normal fashion and were not in any way hindered by the noice restraint.
Overall, this is an excellent property and I would highly recommend it. We were blessed to be able to stay here and make lifetime memories with family.
