Pool and hot tub lovely. Breakfast outside every day around fire pit that doubled as round cocktail table. Dinners outside on shaded patio. Good BBQ. House stocked with everything EVEN good knives. Fresh squeezed orange/ grapefruit juice everyday from trees in the backyard. Perfect. ##### Katherine M. Stayed 30 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gaye C. 8 Apr 2019 #### Exceptional and comfortable. A spotless, comfortable, and well appointed home. Perfect for a family to gather, enjoy together and still have space for their own privacy. The pool and spa was large enough for a group. The outdoor space had plenty of shade areas with ample seating. The indoor open plan allowed everyone to gather and share their meals. The kitchen area was very well appointed. It was perfect for an extended vacation. The host and hostess were very responsive to all our emails and tried to accommodate our needs. Many thanks for a wonderful environment for our family. ##### Gaye C.

We had a fabulous month long stay in Doug and Diane's home. The house was spotless, clean and extremely well equipped with everything one could need, especially in the kitchen, where we cooked many meals. Nothing was lacking! The outdoor spaces were very comfortable for lounging and dining, and we enjoyed using the heated spa and barbeque. We also appreciated the neighborhood quiet hours. Diane was extremely responsive to any inquiries and communication from start to finish was effortless. We hope to return to this tranquil desert oasis and thank Doug and Diane for making their lovely home available for guests to enjoy. ##### BETHANY T.

It is immaculately clean, comfortable furniture inside and out, beds are more comfortable than mine at home and a fully stocked kitchen. The location is perfectly centered in the valley. We loved walking in the neighborhoods and to El Paseo and hiking on the trails nearby. The best part by far was the big back yard with shade and fruit trees. Plenty of room to be in or out of the sun. It is such a tranquil, peaceful place to sit by the pool, read, visit with friends or have your meals. While we were there there were several strong wind storms that came through causing dust to blow everywhere. This house is in a very sheltered area so we had no dust and we’re hardly aware there was a wind storm going on. The only issue we had was the You Tube TV arrangement which was difficult to manage at times. Overall this is one of the best houses we have rented in the desert and we hope to come back. ##### Laurie S.
