Perfect for families with children
Great master bed! Children loved the trampoline and the basketball hoop which I didn’t even know it had. Had to get a basketball pump since they were all flat. But it was the highlight for the kids. Close to the little desert aire area stores. Great park very near. Would stay again definitely. The front door auto lock was a little weird but got used to it. Garage need to be organized if items are for renters use. Super clean and great space for family and enjoying the outdoors. We had great weather after coming from cold rainy alaska in October.

Great for a romantic stay.
No gatherings, so not great for meeting up with friends. But if it's just you and your spouse or friend, it's fine.

Guest Suite
Everything was great once we confirmed the guest quarters was the 4th bedroom and available to us for use. The listing was not clear on this we just assumed a 4 bedroom house. The guest quarters is seperate, but worked out perfectly.

Beautiful Desert Property
Well kept home. Family friendly! Garage playroom, perfect for 5+ (Tv, couches, ping pong, darts, toys). 2 rooms have bunks which made it fun for kids and easy on parents. The guest quarters was wonderful. Quiet, had wifi (I was working), stayed cool, own bathroom, and private. Trampoline was a hit! Spacious and comfortable outdoor area to bbq and have guests. HUGE fenced in backyard. Our dog was in heaven. Super nice community with pool minutes away. Golf course, minutes away. If you have a boat…easy launch area nearby. Love to go back.
