We rented this home in Glendale, AZ with another couple, and the reality was way beyond our expectations! This was the first BIG vacation for any of us, in many, many years, therefore much of the process was new to us. The owners, Cam and Dale, were so helpful and answered any question or concern we wondered about, both in the months before our arrival and during our stay. The printed manual they provided gave lots of info about the home and suggestions of things to do in the area.
It is very comfortable and cozy. This place has EVERYTHING you could possibly look for in a "home away from home". The kitchen was amazingly stocked with every appliance, utensil, and cooking/baking pan we could possibly want. The bedrooms were comfortable, and the in-home laundry was so appreciated. We checked in after 9 days on the road, so being able to wash and dry our clothes on the premises, both upon our arrival and before our departure, was invaluable! (detergent, bleach, softener etc. even supplied!)
This property is conveniently located near restaurants, grocery stores, and things to do including two of our favorites: Cerretta's Candy Company and the Brewers' spring training baseball stadium at Maryville. The backyard private heated pool was refreshing, the patio was fantastic for relaxing, and the gas grill was handy. We made use of all of these frequently. The beautiful smelling orange tree on the patio was loaded with oranges, and in the peak of its season. To be able to have fresh squeezed orange juice and the novelty of picking fruit right from the tree was amazing, as well as tasty. The neighbors were friendly and helpful without being obtrusive. I would love to stay here again and highly recommend it! Thank you to Cam and Dale for a helping to make this a fantastic vacation we'll remember for years to come!
