Great location for birding
Our group toured the Gila Valley looking for birds. The location was great and the property was clean and spacious. Close to Gila Box NCRA, Roper Lake State Park, and the Thacher sewer ponds (great number of ducks and raptors).

Cute home
The home was nice. We had no interaction with the owner or operator, but that's not a bad thing. Everything I'm the town was really close. That was nice. I'd stay there again😁

The property worked super well for our group as we were in the area for work. There was a plumbing problem that arose and the property managers handled it promptly and efficiently. Super appreciated! We'll rent here again.

Pleasant Stay
Great host and perfect location for our needs. We were six adults and had plenty of space and hot water for showers. The host is very communicative. There is a rooster behind the property that crows every morning, but that did not bother us as we needed to be out the door before dawn each day.

Fall Getaway
The property worked perfectly for my family and I. Had a better supply of cooking items than other rentals I've used. Could of used a larger coffeemaker, and a blender, but was not at all a deal breaker. The chicken breeder was a little more than just a farmer with a rooster, but again isn't that country living?🤣

Unwanted 2:30 AM wake up call
There were so many flys in the unit when first entering. The back door and all the windows were unlocked. The a/c stopped working half way through the stay. The master bed is obnoxiously squeaky. It was 2:30 AM of our first night we found out that the neighbors (that the master window faces) have multiple roosters.

Excellent location so long as cleanliness isn't important
I was thoroughly disappointed with the cleanliness of this house. The pictures in the listing were obviously filtered and staged because I didn't recognize what I paid for verses what I ended up with.

Property was clean, with the exception of fruit rotting in fridge, and minor ant issue. Did have issues with driveway being blocked almost every night and morning (rental located behind another house). Property manager info was not up to date.
