Suited our extended family stay over the New Year, with comfortable beds and room to spread out. It has a slightly threadbare quality throughout and sturdy furniture has been used well, but the host is in the process of updating for future guests and was highly responsive, including arranging for popcorn for the theater room popcorn-maker. There is a great grocery store a mile away and the kitchen has all manner of small appliances - we enjoyed cooking together and had everything needed. While on the north side of the Phoenix area, the location put us closer to Lake Pleasant which was a great day trip for boating. Be aware that this is adjacent to ranch-style properties with all manner of livestock, and the roosters start crowing well before dawn - which was noticeable but charming in its own way and did not disturb our group's sleep overall. Dirt roads with potholes for access, but there was recent rain so the bumps may not normally be a problem. Pool/hot tub are lovely and clean but not heated so we did not use. We did enjoy fresh pickings from the backyard pomegranate, lemon, orange and pummelo trees, and the backyard is fully contained - our dog was delighted with things to sniff. We used the backyard grill one night but were mostly inside due to cool weather/ There are closets full of old blankets if a group might want to sit by the firepit. Also a new washer and dryer in its own laundry room.

Farm and city all in one location! Family has enough room to be together or apart, pool for relaxing!

This property is very spacious with many amenities. The property manager was very responsive with any maintenance items that needed addressed. We are looking forward to staying there again.

Very "grand" estate. Beautiful grounds for entertaining. Lots of areas to sit and enjoy, eat, party. We had a birthday party with about 20 adults and their children of all ages. It was april, so the pool was still cold but kids didnt care. Temp that day about 80. 4 bdrms, 4 bathrooms gives plenty of space. Tvs in every room and a theater room. Lots of old world charm!
