We loved the property - it was just perfect for my friend & I. Just want to mention tho that there was only one handtowel and one pool towel. There also was a low supply of BR hand soap and

Perfect place for my wife and I to stay. We were visiting family in Fountain Hills, it was a quick drive to their place.
The room had everything we needed for the week we were there.
Excellent interaction with the hosts. We were traveling from the mid-west via Amtrak and were able to get all the details arranged before we left for the three day train trip. There were areas on the run that didn't have cell coverage and there wasn't any connectivity on the train itself.

The efficiency unit is exactly as pictured/described. My husband and I stayed 27 days and enjoyed the central location near everything in Fountain Hills, and an easy drive to Scottsdale, Mesa/Red Mountain and the ASU campus to visit our grandson. Each day we were out exploring the gorgeous Fountain Hills area and nearby communities of Rio Verde and Tonto Verde and play golf at the nearby courses of Desert Canyon and WaKaPoh. We appreciated the clean and comfortable efficiency unit to come back to at night. Especially liked the short walk down to the Fountain Hills famous fountain and our daily walk around the lake.
