We loved the amazing views and the closeness to South Mountain trails and nature.

I have to say this is by far the most accomodating and welcoming home I HAVE EVER RENTED! You can truly see Pamela takes pride in her home,, and has lots of the little things that make for a comfortable stay..... from shampoo ,conditioner, toilet paper, air freshner for the bath rooms, a candle....dish soap etc...I could continue the list. Now to mention the house itself! It seems every piece of furniture was strategicly placed, from the chase lounge in the living room to the hammock on the deck...The views from the decks are beautiful. We watched a coyote pack in the early mornings, and had hummingbirds visit daily. We heard the songs of the wildlife. Completely relaxing. I really needed a quiet away from it all vacation, this is exactly what I got. Plus hiking on the South mountain,and being minutes away from the city. I could not have asked for more. This is like I said "EXACTLY WHAT MY SOUL NEEDED," We are booked already for next year. Thank you Pamela for sharing this piece of paradise.

I love this property and Pamela is an excellent renter. Very quick to answer messages with suggestions or information. We spent many nights on the front porch looking at the beautiful lights of Phoenix and reminiscing of growing up in Phoenix. The house was very comfortable even for a disabled person. The shower could stand to be handicap accessible though. Some hand rails would be nice. All in all we had a wonderful 2 week stay and we would definitely come back again!

We enjoyed our stay at Laveen village. Beautiful views, walking trail, seen and/or heard wild boars, coyotes, quails. Pamela was an excellent host, always communicated with us and very easy instructions. The house was great with 3 different decks for views of the mountains or city, wild life. It seems like your out in the middle of no where but actually only 5-10min from Walmart or Dunkin. It's the perfect location, best if both worlds. We would definitely stay again when visiting in Phoenix again.

This is gem. Private, quiet and immersed in nature. Coyotes respectfully pass within 30 feet of the house. Mornings were greeted under the stars by the hoot of owls. While there, I flushed a large one out of the ravine during a walk. Quail bobble and cackle everywhere. The trails are right out your back door! So, if you love being outdoors this is for you. The night views towards Phoenix are beautiful...and the expansive valley gives one pause to think about the weight of our footprint... Groceries and many services 10 minutes...entertainment, well prepare to travel 30+ minutes, or plan for day trips. The home itself it very spacious and worked well for my husband and I and our dogs for the month of January. It was surface cleaned and we felt comfortable and safe enough, however, a deep cleaning, especially the brown couch set would be very beneficial, and the upper south facing deck is in need of repair. Lounge chairs for winter sun soakers and some fun entertainment dishware would be a great addition! If you're in need of fast internet, this location is not for you. The current Hughs Net package does not provide the streaming or upload speed you will need, but Pam tells you that going in. She's wonderful by the way! We would definitely stay again.

What a wonderful home! We went to Phoenix for spring training which was cancelled the day we arrived. Pamela's home was the perfect place to stay for two weeks since we were able to take advantage of the nearby hiking trails. The home is very well equipped with everything we needed and it was perfect for our dog. We hope to rent this house next year. Thanks Pamela!

We'd give this property a better overall rating had it been clean. It's in need of new, clean furniture and a very thorough cleaning. Other than that we loved the location, the access to hiking, the amazing city view and the desert feel. Owner was friendly and responded quickly to two small issues.

This is a fantastic property for a secluded quiet getaway in the heart of Phoenix. Direct access to Arizona outdoors and hiking and plenty of privacy. We enjoyed not having any passing cars or sirens wailing in the distance, very peaceful location. Also enjoyed the wildlife as we observed lots of quail and coyotes from the front porch.

We loved this property. Amazing views from front deck. Close to hiking trails and lots of wildlife. We would surely stay here again. There were some minor cleaning issues but did not take away from this beautiful property.

This house is the most beautiful house I ever lived in so amazing extraordinary views of the mountains and the city from all around the house very quiet very private I strongly recommend this house I can not say enough about it if you love nature you will see different kind of small animals walking around the house in the morning or after sunset and a lots of different kind of birds I wish I can give them more than 5 stars thanks to Pamela she is so kind if you have any questions you text her and she will answer any questions that you might have about the house

We loved the awesome views from any deck or window! It was very private and quiet. Hiking trails were close. Home was clean and well stocked in the kitchen. Owners were easy to contact and very willing to answer any questions Loved our stay and will definitely go back again

I really enjoyed my stay. It was so easy to hop onto the trails of South Mountain for hiking each day. Thank you!

My wife and I stayed at this property for approximately 2 weeks in early March 2019. We had a very enjoyable stay and would highly recommend the property. As many have already mentioned, the view is fantastic overlooking the city of Phoenix. We particularly enjoyed the view at night. Other properties are not real close which we like - gives a feel of privacy. The home was very clean and kitchen stocked with just about everything you would need. Nice bbq grill out on the porch. Hiking trail nearby and South Mountain Lookout and trails very close. Owner very responsive although we really did not need to be in contact once we were there. We would highly recommend this property to others.

Excellent ... had a great time. Great hosts.

I was in town on business. I found this home very comfortable and clean. I would definitely stay here again.

We loved the solitude and the view of the city was spectacular.

We loved our stay here. The house had everything we needed and the location at the base of South Mountain makes this an ideal Phoenix get away. By day we went trail hiking, mountain biking , visits to Grand Canyon, Indy Car Racing, Care Free, Prescott, Flagstaff, Tucson, downtown Phoenix and Tempe for shopping and dining. And then at night just hang out on the deck and watch the city light up and airplanes land and take-off at PHX. Pretty tough getting back to the "real world" after this...

We spent a week in this house and it was spectacular. The house sits right at the edge of South Mountain Park, 16,000 acres of space to hike, bike and relax. We were able to hike right from the house. House has multiple decks in all directions to take advantage of the views. Sunsets, sunrises and evening night views were spectacular. House is very comfortable and had everything we needed. Hope to be back next year!! Also, the homeowner was very accommodating and super easy to work with. Thank you for a wonderful week!!!

We have friends and family in the Valley and had people over for dinner almost every night of the week. Everyone enjoyed the amazing view of the city, sunset and the city lights at night. Great for a quite get-away or for entertaining. We didn't need it but the house has enough room to sleep a large group. The kitchen had everything we needed. Accommodating and friendly owners. Peaceful setting. Decks were well equipped with grill and seating for many.

We had a great stay here. The unit looks just like it does in pictures. Private, clean, and comfortable. The views from the deck are truly special. The owner is warm and accommodating. A lovely oasis in the Sonoran Desert, on the edge of South Mountain Preserve.

This home was everything we had hoped for and more. The panoramic view of the city is amazing and we enjoyed many nights and days on the deck. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, utensils, small appliances, food storage containers, everything... even teas and spices and such. There was tons of additional bedding, so no shortage on comfort. The whole house felt clean, inviting, and like home from the moment we walked in the door. During our stay Pamela promptly addressed any issue or question I had. She and her husband truly care about their tenants! I relocated to the Phoenix area and I will definitely have any of my friends and family who come to visit stay here.

We spent two delightful weeks in this comfortable house on the edge of South Mountain Park. We especially enjoyed the privacy and quiet, but must also mention the abundant wildlife in the area, particularly the covey of Gambel's Quail who serenaded us every day. We used the house as a base for daily hikes in the area, but did not have to leave the property to enjoy glades of native flowers. The owners were helpful and responsive. We would certainly return for another visit.

Thank you so much for sharing your home with us! Perfect location for privacy with spectacular views but only minutes from town! Beautiful sunsets and hints of wildlife in nature. Very relaxing setting! David and Pamela were great, very accommodating and available if needed.

What a beautiful location! Our family was in town for a wedding and thoroughly enjoyed the privacy and all the space! We easily slept 10 and actually used the roll-away bed too! The late, late night chats on the deck with the gorgeous city lights sparkling below created the ultimate opportunity for family memories! We also loved the hiking!
