Fantastic Stay at Diamond Star Chateau

Amazing stay, even in the hottest part of the summer in AZ. Phoenix was 118 and Payson was 103 the weekend we stayed at this awesome home. The house is beautiful, 3 floors with the basement which is absolutley functional with the ping pong table, two couches and TV. The main floor has floor ac, I brought 2 fans to accelerate the cooling process, but the 2 bedrooms on this level cooled down very quickly. The Kitchen had all the amenities needed for cooking (pots, pans, grilling gear. Also bring Coffee, creamer, sugar, spices, mayo, ketchup etc because nothing is kept beyond as of fear of spoiling I'm assuming. The grounds are the best part, huge yard for pets, I brought my dog, lots of space for running around in the totally fenced yard. Amazing views, very quiet, and very well kept, I'd definitely come again.

House was warm & inviting, has fantastic views and a fenced in yard (great for dogs). Only enhancement would be a TV in the main living room. The game room downstairs (where the TV is) is cold and lacks the same decor as the rest of the house. Master bedroom is huge and the other two bedrooms are perfect size. Thank you for your hospitality.

Absolute best rental!

This absolutely exceeded any and all expectations! The property is beautiful, clean, and large! The fenced in yard was huge and allowed the dogs to roam and play while being safe. Beds were extra comfortable with excess extra sheets and blankets in closets. Pantry had all kinds of fixings (we didn’t use as we brought our own) and spice cupboard had everything you’d need. Lots of dishes, silverware, pots/pans and utensils galore.
