Inside, the home is spacious, spotless, and very comfortable — exactly as guests describe. It’s thoughtfully stocked with everything you need, making your stay easy from the moment you arrive. The bedrooms are designed for rest, with blackout curtains for deep, uninterrupted sleep.
*King bed in the master and two queen bedrooms *Full kitchen and cozy den *Spacious parking with room for boats and RVs *High-speed Starlink WiFi and Netflix
You’re just minutes from essentials, yet still enjoy that peaceful, off-the-beaten-path feel guests love: *5 minutes to restaurants, shops, and Gas n Grub *Nearby hiking trails and access to the Grand Wash Cliffs *40 minutes to Grand Canyon West and Skywalk *Easy drive to Lake Mead, Hoover Dam, and Las Vegas

Extremely comfortable, had everything we needed, perfect location to restaurants and Grand Canyon, lovely star gazing from the back patio and sunrises. We would rent again in a heartbeat.
This home had everything we needed and more! Comfy beds, plush towels, K-cups, and shampoo! House was spotless and check in was easy! We enjoyed 3 meals at The Boathouse restaraunt right up the street, and the view was amazing! Highly recommend!
Loved this home!! Very comfortable, clean & fresh. It is well stocked with everything you could need. Convenient to the Grand Canyon SkyWalk, Guano Point and an easy drive to Lake Mead. It is off the beaten path, but worth it! Would definitely stay again
Amazing view of stars at night and house was cozy. If you want to get away from all the noise perfect place to stay. House was beautiful and family enjoyed staying in and then star gazing at night.

Wonderful place. Pleasantly surprised with the inside of the house and it's amenities. Beds are comfy and everything is up to date.
Host was great! House was comfortable and well stocked. The hot water temp never reached hot… and was a disappointment. You probably have it set that way. None of us were a fan of that! All in all …. a good stay that could’ve been a great stay!
We loved the town of Meadview! Wished we could have stayed longer. The house was perfect for the 5 of us! Plenty of beds, towels and space. The host was easy to work with and quick to respond. We enjoyed the quiet location as we prepared for our 4 day backpacking trip into the Grand Canyon. Thanks again. We’ll most likely be back!

The home was so clean and well maintained. Very comfortable furniture including the beds. It was nice to sit on the back patio and enjoy the view. Tippi was a great host!
Couldn’t ask for anything more! This home is absolutely gorgeous and very well stocked. Our hostess was always available if we had any questions. Checking in was a breeze! Highly recommend this home.
We stayed in this home for three nights a group of five. 35 miles from the west rim of the Grand Canyon.
Two hours from Oatman, Arizona.
Was cozy and comfortable, perfect fit for us, would recommend.
We stayed one night on our way from the Hoover Dam to the Grand Canyon. Tippi is a wonderful host. The house is very clean and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Make sure you go to the Boathouse Grill and Cafe which is less than a mile from the house. Thank you Tippi!
We were so impressed with the comfort and setting of this house. It's very well appointed. The bed was very comfortable and the outdoor space was so peaceful and beautiful to enjoy star gazing. Thank you for all the special touches.
We had a fabulous time. The home was clean and decorated nicely. Beds were comfy too. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch watching sunrise, sunset and star gazing. Owner was very nice and helpful.
Our stay was perfect! The house was very clean and beautiful. Our host, Tippi, was very communicative. She was very responsive to any questions and more than accommodating. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone!
Cozy, cute and clean! Such a wonderful place to stay and just 30 min from West Grand Canyon Skyway view. It had everything we needed and was very beautifully decorated. Really comfy beds. Backyard view was great, and the star gazing was amazing. The property manager was fantastic and kept us well informed about our stay.
Clean and comfy after we had a week of hiking around Sedona. We started making our way towards Vegas and this home was the perfect stop to refresh and even play some fun family games that were on site. Thank you again!
