Elegant Eclectic Chic Hiker's North Central Guest Home Urban Food Tree Arboretum

Newly Renovated Guest House with Wow Factor High End Design Details: Rock Wall, Victorian Bath, Exquisite Bathroom Fixtures, Interior Barn door. Unpresuming on the outside, plenty of design surprises on the inside. Close to the preferred moderate hiking trail in north central phoenix. Property has 50 young food plants and trees: all should be food bearing in 3 years. This year we have figs, grapes and grapefruits from mature plants. In the future we will have limes, lemons, peaches, nectarines, apples, dates, bananas, mangoes, tangerines, kumquats, limequats, asian pears and many more. Children's garden has 4 tangerines and 1 apple tree. The rock wall will be an impressive back drop for travelers doing video conferencing meetings or webinars. Comfortable desk chair, desk, WiFi and printer complete the office.
Colorful bright blue kitchen has plentiful appliances including drip, pods, and pour-over coffee. We also have a food processor, blender, juicer, and toaster. We think our bathrooms are over-the-top gorgeous, not to be expected in this small house. The victorian bathroom and the rustic bathroom are both instagram worthy. This is a great quiet place to teach kids about tree farming. Also a great retreat for writers and business travelers. The house is in a very quiet neighborhood, with timely access to shopping, downtown, airport, and sports venues. A real garden retreat in the heart of the city. Hikers and dogs can be seen in the morning and evening accessing trails that are easy walking distance from the house. Lots of birds and rabbits are in the yard. Walking access is through a driveway and then across the yard behind the front house into Truly an interesting, quiet and unique property.

Home away from home!
This guest house was a home away from home! Spacious, clean, and comfortable. The beds were very comfortable, full appliances were so nice with everything we needed. 2 of us could comfortably work from home. The house was spacious and accessible with a manual wheelchair. It was not an issue, but know the driveway is steep, with a little incline when parked at the top when transferring. We even enjoyed fresh grapes from the property.

The house was definitely as described and was perfect for us! Easy access to highways, golf, restaurants, shopping, hiking and other adventures! We enjoyed the grapefruits straight off the tree! We are looking forward to returning to Phoenix - and hopefully getting to stay here again!

Fantastic !
Was a wonderful vacation for us - view of the mountains out the kitchen window - quiet and private - fresh grapefruit from the tree every morning - just a joy to be there. Nice open floor plan and two roomy bedrooms. Just a short drive to the mountain hiking area, to the grocery store and other ethnic stores. Enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.

Wonderful property in great location for access to hiking and restaurants. Excellent accommodations, well appointed kitchen and wonderful beds. Communication with Jennifer was excellent and she was very accommodating. One the very best VRBO properties we have ever stayed at! The laundry room was a real bonus. Thank you Jennifer; we hope to return in the future.

Relaxing place!
My husband and I stayed in this guest cottage while visiting Phoenix for a wedding. The owner did a great job on the renovations. The two bathrooms were so pretty, and I especially loved the rock wall in the dining area. The owner was communicative and easily reachable if needed. We appreciated the frame/screen containing the owner’s recommendations for restaurants, ice cream shops, hiking spots, etc. My only recommendation would be to add one or two luggage racks in each closet for people like us who live out of our suitcases while on vacation. It worked out fine with just the two of us, since we were able to leave our suitcases on the bed in the second bedroom. The bed was comfy, and we were able to sleep great there!

The green-doored house in the green yard.
It is a beautiful comfortable house in a neat garden full of young and old fruit trees. We had a peaceful stay. We went on walks in the hills and neighborhood. We cooked pancakes and were happy.

Truly an incredible property!
This is truly the best VRBO experience we have had! The guest house itself is beautiful, clean, comfortable(!), and quiet. Clicked all my boxes. It is so perfect we re-arranged our itinerary so we could stay a few more days. We met the property owner, who is a wonderfully friendly, and helpful. I cannot come up with any suggestions for improvement! I hope that we can come back to this property and coordinate with friends in the Phoenix area.

Amazing Stay
My mother and I enjoyed our stay this past week; it was the best home stay! The bed I slept in was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in. I was able to really rest and enjoy my sleep. The house was clean and private with beautiful views of the mountains outside the kitchen window and the area was safe. We were able to do a lot of sightseeing and traveling, so being able to come back to this house at the end of the day was always the best part. I also enjoyed cooking in the kitchen. Jennifer was a great host. She even showed us her fruit trees and my mother and I were able to enjoy her freshly grown grapefruits. Whenever we come back to Phoenix, this will be the house we stay at. I highly recommend it!
