We were a group of 9 family and friends. The amenities in the house were great. Lots of dishes, glassware, silverware, cooking utensils and pots and pans. The outdoor living space was more than sufficient while offering many activities to keep us occupied. Each of our group complimented me for choosing this home. The location, in the community of Mesa, was perfect for our needs for proximity to the airport and the venue we attended. Furthermore, the communication with Kelly, the host, was perhaps the best I’ve experienced in my several VRBO rental history. No matter what time of day I sent a message, the reply was quickly received. We had no major issues or problems and the responses to our requests were beyond our expectations. A to Kelly and her team. If we are ever in the Phoenix area again we will undoubtedly stay at the property again.

Perfect home and great location for our team to stay, meet, and relax! Top-notch communication from the host, made everything a breeze.

Property was beautiful and provided everything we needed for our stay. Really enjoyed the basketball hoop and Apple space in the backyard.

Everything was amazing!! Loved that there was so much to do just at the property!! The hosts really made it effortless staying here and it’s great for large groups, we had lots of kids and they were always doing something and having fun! 🤩 the beds and pillows were so comfortable, lots of towels (very needed for pool and large groups), kid friendly furniture and ac works very easy in this heat. We highly recommend this place and hope to come back again!

The backyard is what really makes this place so fun! The inside is decorated so uniquely and has a ton of space for large groups. I only gave a 4-star review because all of the beds were extremely hard and pillows were cheap and flat. Also the pool was very dirty and never got cleaned while we were there. Otherwise, 5-star place.

Perfect week with our kids and grandkids, with ample space and activity areas for the kids to be kids: basketball, pickleball, pool, putt-putt, jungle gym, ping pong, air hockey, video games, workout room, and a gorgeous kitchen and areas to gather, eat, and relax. Loved it and hope to do it again. 😍😍

The house itself was spacious, slept our 5 families well without feeling like we were on top of each other. Enjoyed being outside with all the activities like the pool, basketball and pickleball court. We do wish the water feature was working but all in all it was a good stay, hosts were friendly and accommodating. Be aware the neighbors will report you for playing music and having fun with your kids outside by the pool on a Saturday. Even if it’s before quiet hours. Not the host fault but an annoyance to have to deal with after the stay with Airbnb.

This house was amazing! We had a co bachelor group here and everyone was amazed by the house! It has everything! Jeff and Bridget were super friendly and communicative. We couldn’t find a ball pump for the basketballs and they had one delivered that day! Overall a great place to stay for large groups with entertainment for everyone. Could not recommend this place highly enough!

we hosted our 2026 Cousin Camp. So much for the kids to do. The hosts were great to work with.

This was a great place to stay and celebrate our son's graduation with family. There were plenty of things at the house to keep us entertained for the week, and we were all very comfortable.

It was a nice house for a boys bachelor trip. The backyard provided endless entertainment and was relatively close to the places we went to.

This house had great amenities. Pool toys, lots of pool towels, arcade was a bonus, the backyard toys/playset/games were a hit. Kitchen was stocked well. Loved the large family style seating tables (inside and out) and the host was very responsive!

Jeff & Bridget’s place was fantastic and perfect for our needs and stay. There was so much to do and plenty of space for everyone. We loved the large gather spaces both inside and out. Thank you so much.

Loved the place

Jeff and Bridget were awesome hosts! Very quick responses when messaged. The house was very clean and much more well stocked than most I have stayed at. Looking forward to hopefully being able to book it next year for our group event. Convenient location and great amenities.

Great place! We were the first to stay here, and it met or exceeded all expectations. The home is located in a quiet residential neighborhood with plenty of street parking. The house easily slept 16 full grown men. Lots of fun activities in the backyard. For me, the highlight was the colorful decor and big long dining table where you can eat a meal with 16+ people. The hosts were very communicative and everything went smoothly.
