We had a great weekend and utilized all outdoor facilities for basketball pickle ball swimming and just a fun weekend and we enjoyed the Super Bowl in the main TV room. Great location in a fun desert cabin.
We absolutely love being able to stay at the Cabin in the desert for our NXR trip. It fits all of us, allows us to eat together and still have space for downtime and play all while being able to monitor the kids! Plus it is close to the race course as well!
The place was amazing, plenty of amenities for our friends and family to all be able to enjoy during our stay. Smooth check-in and out process. Overall great time.
Great house for a large group with plenty of things to do including tennis, basketball ping-pong, and other games. Very clean…. kitchen was very well stocked with pot pans dishes everything you need. Outdoor grill also included. We loved it and will definitely utilize it again when we come in town for a convention.
Our college lacrosse team stayed here on our spring break trip. It was very nice and clean with plenty of room for the 25 of us to live there comfortably for a week. The outdoor space was great and we spent a lot of time in the pool and playing pickle ball. It was in a very convenient location and lots of restaurants and activities to do close to the house. Overall we really enjoyed our stay!
Our extended family stayed here for a post-Christmas reunion. The place accommodated our large group comfortably. The pool, pickle ball court, and other amenities were well appreciated. The host was awesome - very helpful and responsive.The location was fine but the phrase "in the desert" isn't totally accurate. The home is in a busy suburban area, close to supermarkets and other useful businesses.
We had the best experience at this very unique and huge property this weekend. The kids had plenty to keep them occupied and there was so much space that everyone was very comfortable. The host was very responsive and great to work with. We will definitely rent here again in the future!
Overall, it was a great house. We rented it for our wedding weekend. We were able to host everyone very comfortably. There were plenty of places for everyone to sleep and have a bed to themselves. The backyard is incredible and perfect for hosting. There were so many fun things to do. The host, Katie was amazing. Very responsive and helpful whenever I had a question.
This home was great for an extended family get together for the holidays. The large eat in kitchen was stocked with the basics to make any meal. The pickleball court and basketball hoop was a big hit with the kids. The pool and spa were very clean. All of the queen and king size beds were comfortable and clean. The bunk beds could use new mattresses - but, overall, this VRBO suited the needs of our family.
We were in town for a baby shower. Had lots of family staying together. Plenty of space for everyone :) The pool was refreshing we didn't take the time to figure out the waterfall and light elements but will next time. Katie was easy to get in touch with. pickle and basketball courts a definite hit! Beds comfy. nice open kitchen/dining area. We will definitely be back!!
The house was surely big enough for our group. We had a blast in the pool every day! The layout of the bedrooms and living rooms was definitely different than what I had envisioned from the pictures. Lots of space and the kitchen worked great for our group! 22 of us slept there and then my brothers family joined in during the days. For being on a busy road we wished the front gate could close and would have felt more comfortable letting kids play outside but we totally understood why it couldn’t. Overall great stay! Lots of fun memories made at a family.
This is an enormous property with a wide range of both indoor sleeping and entertainment options as well as extensive outdoor activity opportunities. Our group was very pleased with the pool and sport courts and the privacy that the property fence provided. Numerous different sitting areas indoors provided many options for adults, teens, or younger children to gather and play games, watch TV, etc. lots of bedrooms, bathrooms, and 2 laundry rooms added to the enjoyment of the property.
Great communication and flexibility with the home owner. Would highly recommend.
We love staying at the cabin in the desert. Hosts are helpful, respond quickly and the house is perfect for our big group and close to everything in the Phoenix area!
Great location. We stayed here for my son's wedding. It was about 15 minutes from the wedding location, and reception. We loved the pool and the space. Very accommodating for large groups.
The owners were awesome and worked with me to accommodate our stay. They were very responsive and kind and the property was great! Very fun - we had a great stay!
Great lodging, arrangements, kitchen, laundry, and amenities. Everything we needed for our stay for our annual regional race. We hope to be back again!
We had a great time staying at the cabin in the desert! There are lots of activities and a variety of sleeping accommodations. Our host was very communicative and helpful.
