7 members of my hiking club rented this lovely historic property to celebrate New Years in Prescott. It was well stocked, comfortable and had lots of hot water and heat on our snowy nights! We especially enjoyed the parlor and the photos of Tip and Mary Bacon Wilder! We hiked to the Giant Alligator Juniper Tree, saved by the Granite Mtn Hot Shots in the Doce Fire of 2013, just two weeks before 19 of them tragically perished in the Yarnell Fire.

My friends and I really enjoy the home. The location is close enough to Whiskey Row. The home is amazing. Built in the 1800's and is on the National Registry of Historical Homes. The rooms are spread out and not on top of each other. Plenty of space for our group. The owner was easy to communicate with and was quick to respond. We were here in December and it was cold outside and warm inside. I would love to be back in Prescott in the Summer and stay here again!

We all loved being able to step back in time in this special Victorian! And we loved it being in the center of Old town Prescott- so easy to walk for shopping and so many great restaurants!

The house was decorated vintage style with modern amenities. Situated walking distance from whiskey row. Could do with a few towel racks in the restrooms. There were six of us and no where to hang damp towels. Beds were comfortable. Front bedroom drapes did not provide privacy at night. Beautiful lace style but no backing to preventsomeone from seeing in if the lights were on at night. Kitchen provided all we needed! Quaint and bright! Overall a very enjoyable home.

The location, just south of Whiskey Row, was perfect for us, as we were participating in an event in the area. The home itself was very basic, nothing extra, nothing special other than being historic

This property was just as listed! Very cool and the age of the home is amazing! Very clean and organized and had everything we needed for our stay!

This house was perfect for our girls weekend. The house itself had perfect sleeping arrangements, a mostly fully equipped kitchen (a cookie sheet and food storage containers would be a nice touch), and was within easy walking distance of the courthouse square. Communication with property manager was always immediate and extremely helpful. Great stay all around.

This was our second time staying at the Wilder House. It is located just down the street from Whiskey Row and downtown. It is clean, has every amenity, and rich with history. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

We were not sent the check in information I had to contact The manager. On Saturday night at 1:10 AM the smoke detectors went off in the dining room and lower back bedroom. It scared us all half out of our wits. There is only parking for 1 vehicle which is extremely inconvenient. Most of the lights don’t work. The upstairs TV kept cutting out on the sound. Don’t recommend this place nor would I stay here again. 😤

The home was super clean and located within walking distance to the square. I would have appreciated more interior photos on the listing. It is a little too old for me, much like staying in a museum.

Antique Historic home walking distance to Whisky Row. A must experience for your Prescott Stay.

It was the perfect place for a “Mom’s” getaway! Comfy, spacious and cute!

There were 4 of us that stayed here, hence the 8 thumbs. Loved the home, and location can’t be beat! Anything built in the 1800’s is gonna have some quirks, so if you don’t mind some creaky floors this place is for you. The property manager was on top of some immediate needs we had and was very responsive. Beds were very comfy too!

It was a wonderful stay. It’s a really nice house and it’s only a half mile down the street from the town square. There is an electric vehicle charger at the property and that turned out to be really convenient!

Very nice and charming home.

Very nice and charming home.

The charm of territorial history is magnified by the Wilder House and its surroundings. It is obviously an OLD house which is the attraction. It has been modernized for a comfortable stay but still wears her character and quirks well.

Great location, within walking distance to downtown and shirt drive to Watson lake for a beautiful hike.

We were in town visiting family and wanted to stay close to downtown so we could walk as much as possible. The house is a couple blocks from downtown, super convenient to restaurants and shopping. The home was very clean, well-stocked, and full of historical charm! Erik was easy to work with and responded quickly to our questions. We will be back!

I have never had such a difficult check in process and all my VRBO experiences. The owner was more concerned about charging me for additional fees then giving me access to the property. I was literally on my way to the property and still did not have an access code to enter the property . I emailed him to tell him that I had seven people joining me and that I still did not have an access code .He then sent me a message back stating that I owed additional money for the extra person.The advertising states in several places and it sleeps up to eight people. I fully paid before the trip. The owner then messaged me back telling me that I really needed to let him know if this additional person was coming because of the additional charges instead of giving me the access code to enter. This was extremely irritating to me showing that the money was more important than his customer being able to enter the property. I once again emailed him telling him I STILL did not receive an access code to the property. He then told me that I should have received an email from someone named August Lock. It turns out August is an application on your phone not a person which he did not explain . He also failed to tell me that I had to download an app on my phone to get into the door. I had much difficulty locking the door due to the door locks being so old.. complete breakdown in communication obviously. this again made me extremely upset and frustrated before I even walked in the door.The pillows there were disgusting brownish.Also I got a message from the owner asking why the smoke alarms were going off. His email message to me he was in a condescending tone saying “ it’s not alarm is going off what is going on over there ?” which felt very voyeuristic to me. The fact was we were making bacon and the windows do not open hence the smoke alarms went off. Overall I would say that the owner was very rude to me I did not at all feel welcome.The property itself is a beautiful old historical home In a great location, however due to the owners behavior I would never recommend this to anyone.

I rented the house to spend time together with all my sons who live in different cities. The house was cozy and it felt like home! Loved it!

Issues with the heating and the door locks. Unable to access the property electronically (keyless entry) and a worker had to let us in. Owner unable to fix the issue and finally were given a key for access. Problem with checking out, as we were unable to lock the house when leaving. Felt as though the owner was not very understanding and trusting of our abilities or knowledge as he was condescending when presented with our dilemmas.
