This property surpassed what we expected, very nice area, very private on a lake with a walking path around it. This is on the 3rd floor, so the big balcony overlooking the lake was as fantastic in the morning as it was at sunset. Very clean, comfy beds, great deco... we will stay again and recommend this beautiful VRBO property!
Great place for our family to relax. Being from Seattle, this sunshine stay was just what we needed. The unit is clean, quiet, safe and close enough to shops. Great heated pool and appreciated the lake walking path. Communication was excellent and we felt like a priority to our host.
This was not a destination-style resort (not that it claimed to be) but was very nice. Elevator was inconvenient in that you had to walk up or down a half flight of stairs to get to it.
We enjoyed our stay in this condo. It was clean, comfortable and fully equipped. The lake view was very peaceful. Communication was easy and prompt. We would stay here again if we ever come back to AZ.
Condo worked out perfect! Three adults three bedrooms! Perfect location.Friends taught me pickleball on the provided courts and condo paddles/ballsThe balcony was great! Relaxing. Large. Seating Nice view! The size of the condo was perfect for us. And assigned parking was a big plus. Host was VERY responsive. Including last minute restaurant recommendations.
We came to escape the cold! Desert Shores is a great complex. We loved the beautiful walking path, with the lake and all kinds of birds. The pool area was awesome and the heated pool was so nice! We loved playing pickleball, with the paddles and balls provided. Pool towels and noodles are provided. The kitchen is very well stocked It is fixed up very nice, we would definitely stay here again.
Stayed the week of Thanksgiving. Great home base for us. Went hiking every day and enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and pickleball courts when we got back. Well stocked kitchen.
I have rented from this property owner for two years in a row(different units same complex). This unit was extremely clean, quiet, had ample supply of linens, bedding, dishes, and household items (tennis racquets, pickle ball racquets, pool towels etc.).
The pool and tennis/pickle ball courts were easily accessible, clean, spacious and free of damage and or hazards. The complex is well lit (when dark) and easy to navigate. There was an elevator with easy access close to this unit, which was handy for bringing luggage in and out, as it is a third story unit.
The balcony over looking the pond was spacious, clean and a very relaxing atmosphere to enjoy the scenery. The balcony overlooks the pond that has an abundance of a variety of ducks, Canada Geese, and turtles.
The beds and seating were all very comfortable enhancing ones ability to have a restful stay.
This location is close to an abundance of amenities all within a very reasonable distance.
The owner was very professional, even checking in with us during our stay to ensure that everything was meeting our expectations.
I would stay here again and recommend to others without hesitation. It was a true "home away from home for us!"
Loved the lake, ducks, path, pool, hot tub, and tennis courts. the unit was spacious and clean. The location was just too far north, but that is on me.
My family stayed for three days. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub area and walking around the lake. People were very friendly. The place was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. Would definitely stay again.
The condo was clean, well supplied, beautifully decorated and has a gorgeous view of the lake, lots of ducks and geese and turtles. Everything was very comfortable and was quiet (didnât notice neighbors at all and the ones we did come across were super friendly). There wasnât any fish in the lake which one of the neighbors told us was because of the pumps being down and hasnât been stocked for the year. The estate complex, pool, and tennis courts were clean and well maintained. The walk around the lake was great and felt safe (but the surrounding area did not feel safe and was pretty run down).
We came to Phoenix for a taste of spring and some spring training baseball. Millieâs place is a wonderful condo with everything you need for relaxing mornings and evenings on the balcony overlooking the lake. We enjoyed the propertyâs pool and hot tub as well as the walking paths around the lake. It is a tranquil little spot in the middle of the urban sprawl.
It was a pleasure to deal with Millie (owner). She is interested in the success and comfort of her guests. I truly felt this property was in a great spot to get to and from the stadiums we were visiting. We had a great time and enjoyed the view from our balcony every day.
Spacious and well appointed condo. Everything we needed. Close to all amenities. Millie is a gracious and helpful host. We loved walking around the lake and enjoyed the view from our balcony.
Millie is a super helpful host! She has everything arranged for an enjoyable stay: fishing poles, pickleball paddles, crockpot, all of the kitchen basics for meals. Although we ended up staying during a cold rainy snap, we were thankful for the locked walking path. The hot tub and pool are kept exceptionally pristine.
The only comments I might mention are not within Millieâs control: this area is declining with aging properties. This complex is not gated with a bit of trash in the parking lot. Bring a method for white noise and light blocking, which is common for condo complexes.
Within a few minutes of any kind of food and shopping you may want, but it is in the aging Metro Mall area. Always felt safe and secure. Good people seems to live here.
Our family had a great time staying at this condo over the Holiday break. It was clean and had all things we need in the unit. The patio has a nice lake view and we enjoyed the tennis court as well.
Perfect setting for a family get together over the Holiday
Our stay was awesome. The rental was exactly as shown on VRBO site. The owners were very nice and answered questions immediately. This rental is in an area loaded with stores, restaurants and other places to create thanksgiving dinner. An excellent choice.
We very much enjoyed our stay at the condo.
Kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to prepare meals or just enjoy coffee.
Pool towels, extra bath towels, fishing poles, etc. were an added plus.
Owner was easy to contact and easy to work with. We would stay again if we were to visit the area in the future.
We were very happy with this condo especially because of the walking path around the lake and property. The condo itself was accurately described and the owner was readily available to answer/address any questions or concerns. Unfortunately, the weather was far from normal and negatively affected the enjoyment of our 3 week stay. We would highly consider this property again.
The property was nice and clean. The deck overlooks a lake. It was great to sit out there in the morning and evening. The geese on the lake are quite vocal, so pack some ear plugs!
This condo was perfect for my family of 4. Everything is as advertised. The property is very quiet and peaceful. The walk around the lake is beautiful. We had a small problem with a leaky sink in bathroom on Christmas Day, and both the management company and owner responded promptly. My husband and daughter complained that the beds were hard, but I didnât have any issues. The only think that I can say is that the geese are really noisy at night. They woke us on several nights, but thatâs nature. I would recommend this condo.
