We enjoyed our stay as a family of 5 in this home. Everyone has different standards as to what they may consider a 5 star home. After 14 years of staying in different home rentals all over the Phoenix suburbs, I would say this is a nice home, but not 5 star. There was plenty of space in the home and the pool table and pinball machine were a fun addition. The gambling machines require payment, so just be aware of that. The kitchen is mostly well stocked with utensils and pots and pans. There is no meat thermometer for the grill, so either bring your own or purchase one if you intend to use the grill frequently. The beds were comfortable, but there were no mattress pads on the twin beds and had urine stains on them, which we didn't realize until we stripped the beds before we checked out. There are two refrigerators, which is helpful for larger families. The ice maker is EXREMELY slow at producing ice, so if you use it frequently, you'll need to supply your own. The pool was the best part of the home. We enjoyed that every day. Unfortunately, we could not enjoy the patio in the morning or evening because the mosquitos were horrible! We've stayed in other waterfront homes and this was not an issue. It may be due to the mountains nearby, but regardless, that was disappointing for us. The home could use some touchups and some upgrades. The binder that is provided in the home is not accurate for many things and should be updated.
