Enjoy a BBQ meal on the patio with family/friends and let the canine kids play in the grassy area.

Perfect dog and kid friendly home away from home.

This property is a favorite and will be our go to place whenever we stay in AZ. Love love LOVE the space. It is the perfect place for a dog friendly family and had everything you need to keep kids and fur babies entertained. The house was clean and had all the amenities to make your stay comfortable plus extra fun to make your stay a true vacation. The hosts are SUPER accommodating, communicative, and obviously care about making your stay memorable. My only regret is that we did not book for a longer stay. Thank you Lena and Danny!

What a cute and sweet house! We rented the house with our adult children for the weekend to enjoy a music festival in Tempe. This house was in close proximity to the venue and their reviews looked great so we booked it. It did not disappoint! The hosts were thoughtful, responsive, and accommodating. The house was adorable, comfortable, cozy. organized, very clean and stocked just enough to make our stay comfortable and convenient. There were small touches that were appreciated such as clear instruction notes around the house and labeled cupboards, We really enjoyed the outside space and so did our dogs. The home was very kid and dog friendly. We also took several walks around the neighborhood, which was peaceful and quiet. We will definitely stay again if we are in the area! Thanks for a great weekend Lena and Danny!

Our stay was nice, quiet, and comfortable. The host did not disclose that there are multiple cameras in the front and back yard.The "laundry room" is a wall in the garage, which is also a storage space for the hosts, so you won't be able to park any cars in there. We fit two comfortably in the driveway. We used the outdoor space to host a small BBQ. My father noticed that the grill is not very well maintained and needed to clean it and the grease traps before he could cook.The house is definitely old, which is fine, but it means the door frames are narrow and don't fit a wheelchair. The counter in the kitchen makes the entrance narrow enough that the wheelchair also doesn't fit there.The two living rooms are connected. The one with the projector is the front room, and the second is connected to the kitchen. They are separated by an open doorway.The kitchen was clean, well-stocked, and wonderful. Thank you!

Perfect for the occasion

Wonderful and conveniently laid out property for a graduation party. About 30 or so people came through. Many flex/seating spaces, just as advertised. We had fun with chess, Jenga and bean bag toss in the back yard so everyone had something to do. The host Lena was amazing, thoughtful (placed grad sign in yard and inside;-)), and helpful from start to finish. Everything was clean and ready to go. Six of us spent the night - plenty of space for all. Most importantly, the grads absolutely enjoyed themselves!

Family friendly

This house is extremely family friendly. My daughter loved playing with the toys that were provided and the host left out some arts and craft for her. There was no need for any screen time because she was so occupied with all the provided kids activities. We, the adults, also had fun. There are outdoor games we played and we enjoyed watching movies on the projector. The neighborhood was really nice and the house is spacious and very clean. We stayed there while our place had some renovations getting done. When we do the second phase, we definitely plan to stay there again.

Charming house

This house is very dog and child friendly. Having to manage 2 small kids and a big lab along while hosting a get together with friends and family in an unfamiliar house can be a challenge but this house really felt like home. I was able to put my dog on the side of the yard where she can go in and out of the house but not get underfoot in the backyard where my kids were playing. They enjoyed the sandbox and all the provided toys. Lena gave them some artwork to do which was very fun. There was no need to let them watch the tablet the entire time. The house and yard are even bigger than the pictures show and very inviting to hang out in a large group. The beds were comfortable and the house was very clean. We will definitely stay there again.
