A respite in the city!
We had a wedding to attend in Peoria but didn't want to stay there. We found this PERFECT oasis in Phoenix to relax in after pre and post wedding activities. The casita is centrally located for easy access to the airport, freeways, downtown, great restaurants, museums, art installations, and more. But that's about Phoenix...The Henhouse is the best VRBO I've stayed in, hands down. From the clear instructions, and welcoming lighting to the casita, the fun and edible landscaping, Willetta and the chickens, Larry and Kristi couldn't do better. They have thought of everything down to fresh eggs and filtered water in the fridge. They are incredibly friendly and welcoming and the Henhouse is right in their backyard, so it means a lot when a family takes in the weary travelers. We walked to great breakfast, dinner, breweries, and enjoyed exploring the historic FQ Story neighborhood where the property is located. This VRBO is worth your time, you'll love it!

Our visit was short but great! I will definitely be staying here the next time I have an event in Phoenix. It was so peaceful and cute. You are greeted by a sweet dog, see hens and a beautiful landscape as you walk to the casita. It is a perfect little place to stay and was way better then a hotel. Parking on the street was not a problem either, and it was safe.

Fabulous Experience
The Casita was exceptionally clean & well furnished. Had a toaster oven - a plus for us. Larry is an awesome host - attentive, respectful & available to answer questions & offer help. Enjoyed the chickens, Willetta the dog, & all the reclaimed and repurposed antiques and old items to furnish the secret garden behind the gate. Larry loves plants. He has made a garden delight both in front of the property as well as in the garden, behind. We were close to every place we wanted to go. The neighborhood was quiet & very nice. We will definitely stay here again. Definitely an 11/10!!

Kristi & Larry are absolutely amazing hosts and the bed was absolutely comfortable! The air conditioning is great at helping to beat the desert heat and the smart TV worked well, meaning there is no lack of entertainment! If you like seeing chickens roaming around and love animals in general, this is a great place to stay! The close distance to Sky Harbor also makes it great for those who fly in like my wife and I did! The only thing I didn't like is the fact that the ratings go up to five stars, when they certainly deserve more! My wife and I are certainly considering staying again next time we visit Phoenix! My personal rating: 100 out of 10 See you guys next time!

Exceptional hosts. Great communication. The Hen House was amazing. My only regret was that I only stayed 1 day. I loved the layout, the checking process was easy. I cannot say enough about the Henhouse. Thank you, Then next time I stay in Phoenix I will definitely be staying there.

Happy oasis
We needed a place to lay down our heads for one night while visiting Phoenix for a concert, and we chose this property for its proximity to the venue, but as soon as we arrived, we both wished we'd booked a longer stay. The casita was so comfortable and welcoming, with everything just so. We could have just arrived with our clothes and toothbrushes. Everything else we needed or could imagine needing was already there. The yard looked like we'd been propelled out of the hot desert ino the lush Midwest. The sweet little backyard hens were so quiet, I forgot they were even there -- my only regret, because I love chickens! Spent a little time with them before heading back on the road, but we will definitely be booking here again. Larry was so welcoming and considerate as a host. Thank you!

Everything was great, except the AC was not up to the task while it was over 100F outside. It was underpowered and we struggled to sleep in the over 80F room.

The casita was excellent and located in a beautiful, safe, quite residential section near downtown Phoenix. The host was available to greet us and review the features of the property. Dining options were available within a short walk or driving distance. We only stayed one night but I would stay here again for an extended period and recommend this property to anyone who wished to stay in this area.

Everything I’d Hoped For
The Hen House was a great stay in downtown Phoenix. I’m glad I was able to snag such a perfect little place. It was very quiet, the owners are very thoughtful and sweet, and it had everything I would have thought to need for my stay. Lots of restaurants in walking distance, and very easy to settle in. The hens were very cute to watch too. 100% would rebook!

This is in a safe neighborhood, and close to the convention center. It was an easy 10 minute drive. Communication was always instant gratification by text or through app. Very clear instructions about locking doors, using TV and other. Clean, very clean. The bed was comfortable and sheets were soft. Has a refrigerator, microwave and dishes. It was cute, simply cute and everything placed so well , it really felt relaxing and fun.
