Great location and layout for a large group visiting the area. Plenty of space for our 10 person party with a mix of singles and couples.
5.0
We stayed here for a Bachlor/Bachlorette party and our group loved the home. It was beautiful spacious and had everything we needed. We loved how close it was to entertainement and food. The host was amaizing and very communative with us the entire time. Check in was so easy. We would love to come back to stay in this beautiful home! 10 stars for me.
4.0
Good value relative to the location and accommodations. I stayed with 8 other guys. Plenty of rooms and beds. Starbucks and CVS nearby was great to be able to walk to. Actual neighborhood was ok. House was clean and in good condition. Need to fix a few cosmetic things. Overall was happy with it.
4.0
House is what I expected. Good for a golf trip with your buddies if you needing a place to sleep. A few of the beds were uncomfortable to sleep in but nonetheless the house was in a good location to the freeways and Scottsdale.

It was exactly what we expected and was the perfect size for 12 of us.

Even though home was fine for our golfing group of 11 the home was a little dusty,wifi didn't work, no wifi so TV's didn't work one shower did not drain so there was standing water when next person took shower.also lack of enough towels so we had to use same towel for 6 days then they want to charge for new towels because they said they were stained.Would not recommend

While this property worked for our group of 9 for the new years holiday weekend we noticed a lot of things that should be mentioned. First off, our check in time was at 4pm, however the cleaners were still there and we could not enter the property until after 4:30. Upon entering, the place was mostly clean aside from the floors, which were quite disgusting and didn’t seem like they had been vacuumed or mopped. There were also wet sheets that had been put on one of the beds and the dishwasher had just been turned on before we could enter. Later that evening, as we prepared to go out, we looked up walking directions (the listing says you can WALK TO OLD TOWN as the first part of the description), however we realized it was a 40 minute walk to any of the main attractions. The actual location does not seem to match the map location shown in the posting. This was incredibly frustrating since we booked this place assuming we could forgo Uber/Lyfts or driving and just walk from place to place. There were no cleaning products left for us so we had to purchase our own trash bags, paper towels and Clorox wipes. And after new years, we wanted to sweep/vacuum the confetti from the poppers, however there was no vacuum or broom to be found. Lastly, there was black mold found in one of the bathrooms. The pros are this place has plenty of beds for a larger group, though had we had more than 9 it probably would have felt too crammed. The backyard area and pool were nice and we did enjoy a bbq out there one of the evenings.
4.0
While the 6 bedrooms were what we needed for our family group of 7 adults and 5 kids, overall this was just an OK house. It was clean but showed its age and the wear and tear of being a rental property. Kitchen was woefully under-equipped (for example: only 4 chairs for dining table in a house able to sleep 16). No bath mats and only one towel per person was provided. We were chastised for the noise my grandkids were making as they played in the pool at 7:30 pm. Not a good feeling.
4.0
Nice layout and plenty of bedrooms for a family gathering.
3.0
This property was a disappointment based on the depictions presented. While the property was quite clean and comfortable, the rooms and the yard were MUCH smaller than depicted in the photos. Our group could have rented anywhere but chose this property due to the photos posted - We don't feel we received equitable value for the price paid. Also, the property was scant on cookware - specifically large bowls and pans. Our group decided to check out a day early due to the aforementioned. Finally, a note to the owner so it may be addressed - there were termite tunnels visible in 2 of the bedrooms on the front side of the house.

Big house with great pool and living room area. Definitely recommend for big groups!

Perfect Stay
Came from out of town to see our daughter's graduation from ASU. It was the perfect location and set up for our entire family. Plenty of room for everyone and a wonderful backyard for the grandkids to enjoy. Very clean and comfortable!

Great House, Lots of Room
We had a wonderful time at the house. We are a group of senior cyclists on a tour in AZ. The 6 bedrooms allowed us to spread out and have some private space. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. Just a couple blocks from Scottsdale Stadium. But unfortunately the games were canceled. The central location in Scottsdale was nice for our many outings.
Everything was clean and comfortable. The only negative was that the kitchen lacked some essentials like pots, cutting boards and towels. There we no food basics like salt, oil, spices like in many VRBO's so make sure to take your own prep items.

Vacation House #2
The last minute reservation at this property saved our vacation. Our original host cancelled 2 hours before our check in time. We were mid flight. This house was clean, the linens are hotel quality. Plenty of beds for our extended family of 11. Thank you!

Fantastic for a Group Getaway
The property is unique in that it offers 11 large sized and comfortable beds in a nice neighborhood. Access to all that Scottsdale has to offer!

Fits large groups
Small house in quite neighborhood. Plenty of bedrooms to sleep a large group. Common areas are pretty smell for a large group size so keep that in mind.

Location and Charm
This was such a cute little house. They were able to pack in so much without feeling cramped. And the location to Old Town and hiking perfect. I felt we were in the middle of everything we wanted to do!
