What a perfect get-away! Josephine and Alex are the best hosts you could ask for, and their guest house and property are just ideal. Cant say enough good things about this place. Will definitely be renting in the future. Thank you for a great weekend!

We had the most relaxing, comfortable time in the Ray Road casita! We loved the beautiful yard with colorful citrus trees and happy chickens dotting the landscape as they foraged. We heard so many song birds sitting under the covered patio. Lovely! The casita is clean and well-appointed. The bed was very comfortable. The hosts were so kind and accommodating. Many thanks!

Our stay at this unique casita was wonderful! It was clean, comfortable and charming. We enjoyed the large wrap around patio for meals and relaxing. The lovely yard and outdoor fireplace were favorites (as were the fresh eggs and fruit). Alex and Josefina were great hosts. They answered any questions and went out of the way to search for park passes for us. We hope to stay here again in the future and have recommended it to relatives. Awesome experience.

This cottage is refreshing, well-appointed and adorable.
The cottage sits next door the owner's home. The owners are warm, thorough and kind. The property inside has been updated while the grounds are older with mature fruit trees in bloom, humming birds dart among the Lillies and Aloe vera succulents. There is a chicken coop where the residents have 'Happy Hour and get freed to roam the grounds a bit every afternoon and for pet enthusiasts there are 2 dogs and 2 cats, unobtrusive and friendly.
Outside enjoying the breeze we heard only one large truck roll by. Otherwise, doves in the trees cooed in the background, softening the squawk and whistle of the Grackles.
If you need a charming respite, do yourselves a favor and make reservations, Pronto.

I got just what I hoped for when I booked this property - a quiet, quaint and wonderfully appointed cottage with a great host. Couldn't ask for more and can't wait to rebook.

We have booked with VRBO for many years throughout the USA. We had never stayed in a home where the owners shared their backyard or were in as close a proximity. We needn’t have given this fact a single thought, as Maria and Alex, as well as their family, were the most respectful of our shared space. We felt totally alone in a beautiful setting with lovely flowers, fruit trees, and chickens (which we loved to watch). We were gifted with fresh eggs, fresh citrus and lovely welcome and departure goodies. We can’t say enough about how helpful the owners were and attentive to any of our needs. From suggestions for a rainy day to local attractions nearby. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The Cottage is exactly as advertised. We did have a small concern when arriving from NJ to AZ as our GPS left us a few doors down from our intended destination. We felt it would have been very helpful knowing that The Cottage was accessible by turning at the corner (since we missed the small sign with the house number). During our 26 night stay, we had two family members join us for 6 days, thus utilizing the futon/sleeper sofa. We slept on this and gave the others the bedroom. The futon/sleeper sofa was so comfortable to sleep on - however at our ages 70+ it was less so to sit on for our time there - in part due to it’s width of seat cushion. The recliner was more comfortable. We cooked many meals in the kitchenette and utilized the griddle outside. As the main cook, I was apprehensive of managing with a large toaster oven and a one burner induction plate - but meal time was very doable. We enjoyed the outdoor patio - and the wrap around porch with many sitting areas. Our time at The Cottage was relaxing, restful and close to all the areas we planned to visit. We would definitely recommend this rental and if we find ourselves back in AZ - would definitely stay here again.

Our hosts were wonderful and went the extra mile so that our stay was enjoyable. The cottage was perfect and was everything we were looking for. Really enjoyed the yard with the fruit trees, fresh eggs from the coop and freshly squeezed juice from the grapefruit. Wonderful stay!!

The Cottage is a wonderful place to stay. It contains all of the comforts of home. The patio and backyard is a very peaceful place to relax. We enjoyed watching the colorful chickens roaming the yard. We also enjoyed fresh squeezed grapefruit and orange juice from the trees in the yard. The Cottage was centrally located to all of the places we wanted to visit. Josefina and Alex were easy to communicate with and were very responsive to our needs.
We look forward to returning to The Cottage in the near future.

I normally don't write reviews, but I felt the need to do so based on our stay at The Cottage to warn other families. First and foremost, this is NOT a completely private stay - you are literally in the owner's backyard casita house and have to enter through their RV gate. With that, you will run into them as they work in their yard, come home in their car, their kids are out, and will feel like they are spying on you as all their house windows in the back face The Cottage; you will also hear their dogs bark at you and will hear them when they go out on their patio and talk (even into the nighttime hours). This property is poorly described in the description and we would have never booked a stay here if we knew how un-private it was. The owners also had the audacity to report us to Vrbo because they claimed we weren't watching our kids swim. Obviously they weren't spying good enough because there were multiple adults supervising the children from different vantage points. This made the rest of our stay awkward and uncomfortable and we were supposed to be celebrating our son's first birthday - thanks, owners. There's also no indication of where to put trash aside from the tiny can inside of the kitchen so your garbage will accumulate (we actually had to make trips off the property to dispose of some after our celebration for our son). If you don't mind being in someone's backyard feeling like you're being spied on, then this is the place for you. If not, beware how unbelievably misleading the pictures are. It's a cute and clean cottage, but that's the only positive thing we can say about it. The Cottage was such a disappointment and we're upset that we spent our money here as we celebrated our son on what should have been such a beautiful (positively) memorable experience.

My husband and I were in town for a wedding. The cottage was perfect. It was so well appointed we didn’t want for anything. Parking was easily accessible and very convenient. The grounds were stunning and we could easily view them from any place in the cottage. We even got to meet a few of their chickens who are very quiet. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Gilbert. . Alex and Josephina were very gracious hosts.

Worth coming back
The hosts made this stay really pleasant on our first time staying at a home over our normal hotel or resort. It was exactly what we needed and recommend this location for gardeners to see all the beautiful flowers and landscaping, live chickens including the funny looking ones, a pool to enjoy, and fantastic hospitality.

Loved this place- would definitely come back!
Cute cottage located on a suburban farm. Lots of fruit trees with beautiful landscaping surrounding the cottage. We could have spent the whole day birdwatching on the back patio. The owners were very welcoming and communicative. They left us some fresh fruit, farm eggs, and delicious homemade marmalade with a welcome letter addressing me by my first name. So thoughtful. One of our favorite places we ever stayed at. Wish we could've stayed longer to just hang at the house for the day. Highly recommend!

Perfect for the two of us - we’ll be back!
This was the most lovely casita with plenty of room for the two of us, very clean, and beautifully appointed. The location was convenient for the things we wanted to do, and any store you might need will be close by. We enjoyed taking walks in the neighborhood and especially enjoyed watching the chickens! Hosts were delightful, there was fresh fruit, eggs and homemade marmalade to greet us. We were sad to leave and would love to visit again!

Cottage Living at its Best
We really enjoyed our stay at The Cottage at Ray Road Farm. As previous Gilbert residents, we knew that this would be the perfect base for our time in Arizona. The cottage was the perfect size for us, and it was warm and inviting. The patio was the perfect place to relax. Go for a walk around the neighborhood to see horses, cows, and chickens. We loved the chickens on property. They are very friendly! The hosts are also friendly and very accommodating. Stay here and you will not regret it. We hope to return soon!

Farm style cottage with all the fixins
We had a wonderful stay at this cute cottage farmhouse. Fresh eggs from the chickens out back and an assortment of snacks welcomed us. The place was clean and easy to access. We enjoyed the patio table at breakfast along with the beautiful landscaping and fruit trees. We would definitely stay again!

Home away from home
Everything was there that we needed. We treated it as our home for a few days. Visited family and new grand baby that we had not seen since before pandemic, but did not want to crowd them in their home. They lived close by and stores were close to us. So location was good for us. Pricey is the only negative remark I have.

Wonderful!
Cozy, clean, relaxing, and bright…When we arrived at The Cottage @ Ray Road Farm, we could see everything looked as the online pictures portrayed, but better.
The inside was just perfect for us, although we spent much of our time outside. The veranda faces a huge, private backyard filled with flowers and fruit trees. I used my BirdNET and LeafSnap apps each day, which enriched my understanding of the flora and fauna of the area. My husband and I were in town for a wedding and had planned to spend our unscheduled day to explore the area, but didn’t begin until mid-afternoon because we were so relaxed and wanted to enjoy the beauty of this property.
Josefina and Alex are lovely, and they want their guests to be comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. Both the place and the owners are gems!
