The house was just a described. It had plenty of room, everything was clean, extra blankets/towels, the basement was awesome for the kids to play in. Overall a great trip!
We had a wedding almost right around the corner from this place. We knew it was going to be a late night and didnât want to drive back to the valley so we decided to book here and we were so glad we did. When one member of our party wanted to leave we were able to take them to the VRBO and get right back to the celebration. The place is clean, nicely furnished and a great location if you are staying in Black Canyon City. We were very happy with our stay and extremely happy with the location
The house was absolutely beautiful.The bed was amazing.The property was peaceful.we thourally enjoyed our stay and the communication with Garrett was great
The house is in a small small town that is very remote and was perfect for us. Quick drive to Phoenix or Sedona but right by the black canyon trail.....and don't forget the pie shop...right by the pie shop. Neat neighborhood with the friendliest donkey who visited every time you walk by the fence are. Nice accomodations with comfortable beds, nice game room, fantastic shower and bathroom, and all the things you would need in a kitchen. Nice patio and view of the hills and sunrise. Check-in was a breeze and host was very responsive leading up to check-in.
I stayed here with my family for a wedding at Chilleens. The location could not have been better for this venue. Check in was easy. The place was very spacious and clean. The front yard is gated for our two fur babies that came along too. This is a solid recommendation for a nice place to stay in Black Canyon City.
In town for wedding at Chilleens, was a very nice stay and communication with host was great. I wanted to make sure its still a 5 star review, but the description of 5+ acres is not correct. There are multiple buildings/rentals on the property so you only get the small yard, which is cute and perfect if you knew that was all, but the listing makes it seem you have lots of space. Any time we were in sight of the rental behind us, the lady would talk non sto0 t9 us, i know i sound rude, but when i think we have 5 acres to ourselves, i want to sit on the back por h in peace. And I hope nobody uses the 3 concrete dog runs in the heat. Im thankful we were able to bring our furbabies and again, we were very pleased with our stay, but dont advertise those as dog runs. Owners are very nice, helped us get something we forgot, so nothing against them or the house, just how it is marketed. Thanks for having us!
theyard(which is cutr)
This review is strictly about the home itself, and not so much the host. He was easy to get in contact with and communication was quick. However, this home needs a lot of work and our stay was less than ideal.
Positive notes are, the front porch was a great place to hang, the mountain scenes were beautiful and it felt secluded.
Unfortunately there were still a lot of inconveniences. The toilet downstairs had plumbing issues during our entire stay. We were unable to use it and had to clean up leaks because the wax ring is broken. Host called a plumber and we had to deal with that.
The fridge upstairs did not get below 50 degrees because the coils are frozen over and broken. Luckily there is a fridge downstairs. The dryer only does air dry, we could not get it to heat.
There are âfire goneâ canisters are expired by over two years, which is a safety concern. Water stains on basement ceiling.
The creek that runs behind the home was dried up. Weâre not locals, so had no way of knowing to expect anything different from the listing. The hot tub was part of the listing when we booked and host neglected to tell us it would not be available to use, until the day we arrived.
Overall, there are a lot of things that need to be fixed and of course everyoneâs standards are different. But for us, when we pay for something and expect basic amenities and donât get them, it feels disappointing.
Quiet restful home along a creek. Thoroughly enjoy our time. Great view of the stars at night! Lots of family & everyone thought it an excellent respite from the norms of every day life!! We would stay again!
The property was perfect for our family. The area was beautiful. My favorite part is that the atmosphere of the area is slow-paced. The home was quiet and felt secluded. The views were beautiful. The host was accommodating. Local grocery store is a bit pricey being in a rural area, but what groceries arenât these days. There are âbiggerâ stores 20 miles away. The only thing I would add to the property is a casserole pan, as I made Easter dinner and didnât have one (that I found) Other than that, the kitchen and home had every thing we needed. We would absolutely return to the area and this home in a heartbeat. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
Perfect for our family of four (with 2 teenagers) with room to spread out! Great location to attend a family wedding at Chileenâs (right there at the exit) as well to explore all points north and quick drive into Phoenix area. Nice home in a quiet area and excellent communication with owner. Garrett is very responsive to questions and accommodating. We enjoyed some time in the game room! We will stay here again when in the area.
The house was very comfortable and perfect for our needs though we didnât use nearly all the rooms available. Especially loved the huge covered porch and private fenced yard - our dog was very happy here too! If you want upscale, this isnât the place. But if you want casual, comfortable, easy-living, this place canât be beat!
Great place, quiet and clean. Very private. Even though there wasn't water running, it was fun to walk along the river bed. House was nice, game room was super fun. Everything was very, very clean and super comfortable.
Great getaway, easy access from I-17, lots of parking. The house was clean and well appointed. We wound up with 10 in our group and had room for more. I had trouble finding the key pad to access the house, and the host called me back immediately. We never ran out of hot water, inspite of back to back showers for a number of us (plenty of towels. But, European style, you may want to bring your own wash cloths, lol.) The kitchen had pretty much anything we needed for meal prep. Beds slept well. Sitting on the deck drinking our coffee in the cooler mornings was relaxing, with wonderful views - we got to see some wildlife, even! The younger ones (and some of us older ones, lol) enjoyed the game room - a nice feature not often found, I'd imagine. Overall, a great experience (my first VRBO), and I would hope if I ever make it back to AZ, that we could stay there again! For basically, what could have been hotel accommodations for 4, we were able to take care of 10, but much more comfortably, and with more amenities. It worked fantastically!!
We were in BCC to visit family. This home was close to our family and was a great place to meet. We enjoyed the game room as well as the beautiful grounds and the animals!!
Great for our big group with kids and dogs - but only had 2 bathrooms. Was super happy to have game room and sectioned areas when a quiet place was needed. The kitchen was small and neither ice maker worked, beds and bedding uncomfortable and gate easily unlatched. Toilet periodically made high pitched noise.
The house looked just like the pictures! The creek was empty so the kids were able to play out on the creek bed. We were in town for a wedding at Chilleens on 17. This house couldnât have been in a better location for attending a wedding there. Garrett was very responsive anytime I had a question and made sure we were comfortable. If we come back to AZ we would definitely stay here again!
Our stay was very nice, Garrett was a fantastic host. The home was clean, quiet and very comfortable. The wifi available was adequate. And my wife was able to work from the location when needed. There were games and stuff for the kids to do and they asked to stay longer but unfortunately we couldn't. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a nice secluded and quiet home with a fantastic view! We will be staying here again if we are in the area again!
