We really enjoyed our time in Gilbert. The home is super close to anything and everything you need. The backyard is amazing and our kids loved every minute of it!
We had our volleyball team stay here during a tournament and they loved the space and had too much fun with the backyard. What a great family friendly place. We also enjoyed the big kitchen table so everyone could sit down and eat together.
First of all, the hosts are fantasticâŠvery responsive. The backyard is better than described. We spent EVERY day in the pool. The zip line, trampoline, putting course, and hoops area were bonusesâŠas was the movie theater in the basement. We will be back!
While my rating gave a 5 star - I would rather it was a 4.75. There were several things on the property that needed fixed. I did let the owners know and they said they would get right to it. It does say for a heated pool it would be an extra fee. At the price we paid, I really feel it should have been included. Not to anyones fault, it was cold and rainy the entire time we were there so it was a waste of money for us to have it heated. We did pick fresh fruit and ate it., a complete bonus. There is tons of room and worked great for our large family. It is nice you can section off the house with pocket doors if you need to make things quieter at different times of the day. The sunken family room is nice, however for older people they don't see the floor heights. and my parents were constantly trying to figure out the floor. It would be nice if a nightlight was put at each of the steps. Tons of stuff to do in the backyard. A true kids delight - especially if they are about 10. My teenagers enjoyed the basketball court - in between rain showers. My 20 year olds enjoyed the garage gym. My parents enjoyed the giant kitchen table to play cards at for hours. Overall we had a great time. The family responds quickly to text messages. The .25 knock off points for me is really the items that need fixed and the fee for the pool - which was stated - I just didn't like it. Overall, I would stay again. It was clean. The beds were comfy - every single person said their bed was great. Having other guests on the property really isn't a problem, however it is kinda weird to hear the upstairs guests when you least expect it. We never saw or met the other guests, just heard them at night. Also, you are requested to read the property instructions - you should do this ASAP. Might help you out.
Full disclosure - I rarely give 5 stars - I am a Hotel Snob, so take it for what that is worth.
We had a great time staying at this house. The backyard is big with plenty to do and the house itself is nice and big with lots of space. They also included games and stuff for outside which is nice. The owners are also very responsive which is helpful if you need to get in contact for the pool or anything. I spoke with Erik a couple times and he was very nice.
A couple things we didnât know going into it⊠they have a separate air bnb they rent out upstairs so that whole area is occupied with random guests. They also have a big driveway to park a lot of cars, but durning the stay we noticed people driving by checking on us and the house. The neighbors donât like when you park on the street so we were constantly having to move cars and play Tetris in the driveway, even though their neighbor to the left has a huge trailer parked on the street. We were also told by the end of our stay that their maids found throw up in the master shower and we should probably make that right. My husband and I showered the night before we left and there was no throw up so we were very confused by this. All in all, itâs a great house with a fun backyard for a lot of people, but if you donât feel like being monitored 24/7 then it might not be the best fit.
This place was amazing and the wonderful owners were so helpful! There were 13 of us from 5 to 66 and I think everyone enjoyed it as much as the next! Thank you so much!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Erik & Bridgetâs place. The history of the home was very sweet as well. Erik was super responsive to any questions we had and it made for a fabulous and memorable weekend.
We booked this with another family for my daughters wedding and the house and yard were amazing! The owners were the absolute BEST to work with! This also made ALL the difference! We made beautiful memories that we will always cherish in their home! We would definately book again!!!
Amazing stay, everything a family could need or want was at this property. Spent most of our time at the house and didnât venture out as much we had plannedâŠthere was so much to do right in the backyard. We will definitely be back to make more family memories here đ
Wonderful property and great communication from the owners. Our family had a great time! Thank you!!
Wonderful property and great communication from the owners. Our family had a great time! Great location, close to anything you need and also in a quiet neighborhood for relaxing at the pool with quiet nights by the fire making sâmores! Our family had a great time and really appreciate the hospitality! Thank you so much!
Me & my husband wanted to book a trip with our children and this was the perfect place! We have an 8 year old, 2 year old and 6 month old. The 8 year old and 2 year old loved the pool and back yard. We loved that the pool was securely gated so they couldnât get in without one of the adults. Our 6 month old was able to find shade to sit under because of the large amount of trees. We loved that there was shade but also that the pool was positioned to be able to get sun and a tan while swimming! The house is in the cutest neighbored and close enough to walk (about 1 mile) to get some coffee and other items. We would definitely recommend and hope to return!
This place is perfect for outdoor family fun! We had 3 families combined...6 adults and 7 kids (3 @ 16; 2 @ 14; 2 @ 12) and we all had a blast! We took full advantage of the outdoor amenities offered and had plenty of room for us all to prep meals and eat and sleep comfortably! Communicated with Erik almost everyday of our trip and he was very helpful with information and answered all our local questions!
We had 8 adults and 5 children and we slept very comfortably. The pool was outstanding and the property is huge and beautiful with various fruit trees, trampoline, zipline, firepit, putting greens, ping pong, movie screen. We could not have asked for a better family vacation in a wonderful location (within a half hour of Phoenix and Scottsdale).
This property was great for our group. The location was easy to access phoenix, Gilbert and Scottsdale. The pool and back yard were awesome for hanging out with friends.
The house was big and we all very comfortable. The backyard was seriously the best. The pool, the zip line the kids all had such a good time. Erik always got back to me quickly if I had a question and was very helpful with restaurant recommendations.
The back yard is amazing, pool, slide, zip line, basketball and mini golf. So much for kids and families to do. The lemon, orange and grapefruit trees were so fun to eat from. The kids made lemonade.
Our passion is our family! We have six children, love the outdoors, sports, music and food. Bridget is a personal trainer and Erik is a leadership performance coach. We love visiting the mountains of AZ and Huntington Beach, CA.
My parents built this home, and it was the home I grew up in. We bought the home from my parents 4 years ago, and have updated it to meet the needs of our family, including the addition of the pool and all the other backyard amenities.
