• Flexibility & Privacy: Three separate buildings mean early risers and night owls can coexist perfectly without waking each other up.

1. The Main House (Unit A)
• Vibe: Spacious and open, featuring a rustic brick fireplace and a giant ping pong table right in the living room.

⚠️ Honest Expectations (Read Before Booking)
• The Layout: This is not one giant mega-mansion. It is three separate buildings on one lot. You will use outdoor pathways to walk between the Main House, the Casita, and the Bungalow.
• Parking Logistics: The property driveway can only accommodate 1 vehicle on the right side. All other vehicles in your group must utilize the free street parking directly in front of the house. There is plenty of street space, but we want you to plan accordingly!
• Bathroom Coordination: While the property sleeps a massive group, please note that the rear Bungalow (Unit C) has 3 bedrooms but only 1 bathroom. Large groups should coordinate morning shower routines.
• Desert Landscaping & Pool: The backyard at the rear unit features a natural desert and dirt landscape designed for yard games. The Main House pool is unheated, which is refreshing in the summer but chilly in the winter months of November through March.
Guest Access:
• Entry: 100% Contactless Self Check-in. Each of the three houses has its own secure keypad on the front door. We will provide the codes for all three units prior to your arrival.
• Accessing the Units: The Main House is right up front. To access the Casita and the Bungalow, your group will use the side pathway that leads to the rear of the property. We recommend rolling luggage for the guests staying in the back units!
The Neighborhood:
Located in the 85015 zip code, you are situated in a classic Central Phoenix residential neighborhood.
• The Vibe: A blend of working families and renovated properties. It is an urban environment, so you get the convenience of the city with a neighborhood feel.
• Nearby: You are just minutes from the "Melrose District" on 7th Ave, known for its vintage shops, incredible antique stores, and trendy mid-century modern aesthetic.
• Dining: Plenty of local favorites for tacos, coffee, and brunch are within a 5-minute drive.
Getting Around:
This location is a launchpad for the entire Valley of the Sun:
• Old Town Scottsdale: 20-to-25-minute drive (Nightlife, Shopping).
• Sky Harbor Airport: 15-to-20-minute drive.
• Golf: Over 10 golf courses are within a short driving radius.
Other Things to Note:
• Security Deposit: A refundable security deposit is required for the stay. Please contact us to confirm the specific amount. This is fully refundable provided the property is left in good condition.
• Waiver Option: If you would prefer to skip the hold on your card, you may choose a non-refundable damage waiver for a small fee instead.
• Furry Friends Welcome: We love dogs! You are welcome to bring your non-service pup along for a small fee. Please just remember to add them to your reservation guest count when booking so the fee is automatically applied and we know to expect them!
• Respect the Neighborhood: While this property is designed for fun, it is nestled in a residential neighborhood. We strictly enforce a no-party rule for outside visitors, and outdoor noise must be brought inside during quiet hours.
