This house is amazing! Our family of four stayed for six nights, and had a fantastic time. The location is extremely convenient for lots of popular trails, including Devil's Bridge, Fay Canyon, and Doe Mountain. Normally we'd pack lunches, but it was super easy to pop back to the house after a morning hike. The hilltop location affords some truly spectacular views of the red rocks, from sunrise to moonrise. Several mornings, we had breakfast while watching hot air balloons launch in the distance.
The house itself has a pretty open floorplan, and we had plenty of room to spread out and relax. The kids loved the loft above the kitchen for everything from reading to coloring to viewing live performances of the impromptu Dad Makes Breakfast cooking show. The kitchen has all of the basics, including a good stock of plates, bowls, and utensils, and sufficient pots, pans, and bakeware to put together dinners. Everything was super clean and ready-to-use.
We spent one afternoon at the pool attached to the clubhouse, and literally had the whole thing to ourselves. The crowd at the club seems to skew older and more golf-focused, which worked out great for us! They have good pool towels, and a wired internet connection that's a little snappier than the Viasat link at the house.
Access to the property through the gatehouse was smooth and convenient. Easy access to Rachel's Knoll allows you to experience a 360-degree view of a sunset, in case you feel the need to upgrade the 180-degree view from the kitchen and family room at the house. We were alone the night we went up there, too.
Overall, this place is amazing. The property manager took great care of us, checking in regularly to see if we needed anything. We'd definitely look to stay here again next time we're in Sedona!
