Best mountain views we've had yet!…Best mountain views we've had yet!WW…
5 out of 5
We booked this vacation at the last minute, and was surprised that this house was even available. The home itself isn't huge, and the houses next door are rather close - but you can't beat the mountain views in the backyard. The cactus were in bloom and everything was just beautiful. We are bird watchers so we filled the feeders and enjoyed just looking at the mountains and all the birds that came around. It was in the 90's every day so we chose NOT to pay for the pool heat, and the pool temp was almost 86 degrees, so definitely not needed. We loved the choices of either the gas or wood burning outdoor fireplaces. After our fires we'd hop into the hot tub, then take a dip in the pool to cool off before heading inside. TV's all worked great, and the kitchen had everything we needed to feel at home. Was wonderful to grill out every day, eat our meals outside, and just enjoy the great weather. It was nice to have a washer/dryer too, I'm one of those people who like clean clothes to just unpack when we get home.
There were a few things we would change - the master bath could use a little updating. The shower leaked into the bathtub, but it wasn't horrible. One morning the pool boy showed up unannounced (on Wednesday) for those staying and wondering when he'll come. :) Also that morning our neighbor must have came in the side gate and he was walking around in the backyard. Not sure what was up with that, but he left after a bit. One other thing we wished we had was bikes for our use. One was left there but the tires were flat and no way to fill them. After 3 hikes it would have been nice to do a bike ride instead. All of that being said - it wouldn't deter us from staying at this home again. I was just in awe of the views, and wished we could have stayed even longer. We had a mid afternoon flight back so we requested a late check out and that worked great for us. Everything went perfectly from booking to check out, and we would definitely stay here again. Thanks VRBO for another fantastic vacation!…We booked this vacation at the last minute, and was surprised that this house was even available.
