TESTIMONIALS

Thanks for such a great place to stay … it is an “oasis”, such a great spot to do day trips.  The house and yard are beautiful.  You have thought of everything .. all the amenities, all the personal touches and you even threw in 10 days of sun and heat.  We will absolutely be returning.

Thanks to y’all from an old Texan here with Canadian friends.  We enjoyed it!

What a pleasant stay we had here.  Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.  It was very comfortable and had everything we needed.  The welcome wine was a pleasant treat.  The pool was relaxing and watching the backyard plants come into full bloom was just beautiful.  We enjoyed hiking the trails, Silly Mountain, seeing many dinner shows, shopping at the Mesa Market, eating at Wahoo’s and visiting the Botanical Gardens, as well as vising with family and friends.  Watching the sunset on Superstition Mountain as spectacular.  Hope to be back!  Thank you for everything.

We have had a very relaxing time as always.  The house is lovely and comfortable.  It is a real treat to sit on the patio and look at the view.  Our friends joined us for 2 1/2 weeks and they loved the house and locale.  We did overnight trips to Sedona, Grand Canyon and Las Vegas.  The guys loved the golf and the Ping Factory.  We hope to visit again.

Wow!  What a beautiful home you have.  Accommodations here are first class all the way.  We have enjoyed our trip to Arizona, and for me at the age of 75 it was wonderful to spend Christmas Day with blue skies and sunshine.  We had a nice trip to Sedona and found the scenery there breathtaking and enjoyed the shops.  We have visited a number of malls along the way and spend an evening at San Tan Flats in SW Phoenix.  It was fabulous, the fire pits, the ambience of the place was different. We also visited the Hitching Post … Pizza was excellent.  Tomorrow we are off to the game – San Fran vs Arizona, but the best thing of all is coming back to the house and going for a swim or visit the hot tub.  You have given us the opportunity for everlasting memories and for this we thank you.

Thank you for the use of your lovely home.  We loved the dark skies and star gazing at night.  Days were great for hiking (Goldmine was fantastic for photography) and bird watching.  We saw the following birds while sitting in the backyard: Guilded Flicker; Cactus Wren, Hooded Oriole, Common Nighthawk, Morning Dove, Albert’s towhee, Eurasian Collard Dove, House Finch, Lesser Goldfinch, Gambet’s Quail, Raven, Northern Cardinal, Great Egret, Gila Woodpecker and a Great Blue Heron.

A great showing for a short visit.  We also drove to Sierra Vista to watch the hummingbirds landing – well worth the drive (it happens once a week in April and May / July and August)  (www.sabo.org) 

Thank you for sharing your home for our winter vacation. Everything was here that we needed and then some.  Thanks for sending all the local info – it certainly made everything easier for us.   You have a lovely home and we felt very welcome.  Thanks again for everything.

P.S. The hot tub was awesome and we used it alot.

Christmas of 2012 was spent here in Gold Canyon, AZ and what an experience it has been for us. The house is beautiful and situated in a lovely location.  In addition, we also enjoyed the pool and hot tub.  There are many attractions to see … our stop at the Hitching Post was a memorable one.  We will certainly be back to Arizona and welcome the opportunity to stay here again.

Fantastic location, incredible view, all the comforts of home .. what a great vacation spot.  Even a four year old loved his stay and especially loved the hot tub.  Could not have asked for a better way to spend our holidays. (Leigh & Jaiden)

I loved your home from the minute I stepped in.  The house is so spacious, comfortable and very nicely decorated.  Our Christmas with the family was wonderful.  The washer and dryer were well used.  We enjoyed meals at the Hitching Post and Village Inn.  We hope to return again. (Bruce & Ellen)

What a great place!  Our families came from Anchorage, Alaska and San Diego California for a wedding.  We had a wonderful stay – very comfortable house and John was awesome.  He came to our rescue when the breaker blew while we were getting ready for the wedding.  Hope to come back for a visit to beautiful Gold Canyon again soon.

A fabulous vacation!  One we won’t forget.  The Hitching Post and Mexican Restaurants were two of our favourites.  The Dinosaur Mountain golf is spectacular.  Enjoyed trips to Ghost Town and Scottsdale for shopping.  There is so much to see … an artists dream.

Well, where do we start?  What a fabulous vacation home this is.  For anyone fortunate to be here after us we would recommend :hiking the Goldmine Trail; a trip to Sedona; the Renaissance Festival; Renting a Boat on Canyon Lake and Drive the Apache Trail; and eating at the Hitching Post with Live Music and Bull riding.  Enjoy the views of Superstition Mountain from the backyard.  This is a little piece of paradise.

We had a great visit!  Our parents were very surprised for their 50th wedding anniversary.  We enjoyed our stay.  Thanks for everything.

Thank you for the use of your house.  It is beautiful and very comfortable.  And the bottle of wine was a very thoughtful touch.
